 Huntsville merchants are still complain ing of dull trade for this time of the year Nearly three-fourths of Madison County g cotton has been disposed of and yet the expected stimulus has not been felt by local trade. This condition resulted from the pool among the cotton buyers who made an agreement to pay from p to 5 points less for cotton here than 1t is sell ing in neighboring towns Before the op- erations of this pool were discovered trade was given a severe blow, many hundreds of bales having been hauled to other places for sale to be sold. Th' pool has been broken up by competition and normal conditions in the local busi- ness circles are returning.
