though the inquiry at hand for cotton immediately is of sufficient proportions to sustain the firmness in the spot depart ment. The enormous liquidation that has taken place during the past few days is conducive to a very healthy condition of the market, and with sentiment almost unanimously in favor of advanced prices the slightest encouraging development henceforth Is likely to recive prompt re- cognition.

 New Orleans. April 5.-The firmness es- tablished in Liverpool was accentuated today by further rise of 2-64d in deliv- cries and 1-16d in spots, with sales of 10000 bales. which Is quite an unusual amount to change hands on a half busi- ness day, and bespeaks an eager desire for the actual stun abroad. Private ca bles were rather encouraging. reporting a firmness with an improving tendency in Manchester. Additional realizing of long profits on an extensive scale figured largely in the days transactions here. Under the pressure of which prices eventually gave way several points, but even at this slight decline good de- mand appeared from those who had cov- cred at top quotations and steady tone was maintained. Closing quotations are to points fewer than yesterday.
 It invariably develops that with any easier condition in contracts the urgent demand for spots disappears to some ex- tent and this is the case at present

 Nervous.

New York, April 5.--The cotton market higher, very poor response to firm Liv- erpool cables and bullish domestic news Immediately after the call the whole list sank back to 8s2 for July under heavy profit taking by the commission house contingent and large offerings by Phil adeipbia house. Room traders later came to the support of the market, which however, worked higher in manner so sluggish as to make the more timid hold CTS uneasy. Port receipts for the day were estimated at 90OO bales, against 15, 695 same day last year. Private advices from the South again described very firm spot markets As the session progressed Wall street picked up August contracts and appeared to be selling July in a quiet way. All the forenoon the market was hesitant with the room trade slow to step boldly on either side The market closed quiet and steady, net unchanged to points lower, having weakened in the lest hour under heavy realizing.

New Orleans, April 5.-There is good demand for spot cotton at full board prices Sales for the half holiday 4o50 including 700 to arrive.
 There was a slight reaction in the fu- ture market. The opening was from to 2 points over Fridays closing and for a time 1t appeared that the advance would be sustained. Liverpool reported a further advance with heavy sales and the general guides in the early hours all favored higher prices The first sign Of weakening came from New York and as the prices sagged in that market sell ing movement followed locally that rapid ly carried away the opening gains. The market appeared particularly sensitive but after a short spell of demoralizing selling it was checked and held steadily after dropping 3 to points under yester- days closing figures.

Shot "a Bad Negro.

j. W. Whalen, prominent plant
er a few miles south of Senate
bia, shot a negro by the name of
Buster Howard five times at the
home Of L. W. Fitzgerald last week.
On or about November s the negro
called at the home Of Mr.. Whalen
and on finding that no one was pres
ent except Mrs. Whalen and her
two small children, requested the
loan of 75 cents. When informed
that she did not have the money,
the negro insulted her. Fortunate
ly, Mrs. Whalen secured a pistol and
held the negro at bay until he was
frightened away by her appeals be-
ing responded to by neighbors. Tn.
til last week Mr.. Whalen had not
seen the negro, and a public sale a
the Fitzgerald home caused thl
meeting. The negro had WORKED
for Mr.. Whalen until June Of thi
year, and he considered him dan
gerous. Prior to the shooting Mr.
Whalen called him to one side ant
told him that he was familiar witt
his conduct at his (Whalon's) HON
a few weeks ago. He had hardl
completed the sentence when til
negro, with an oath, started towar
him, when the shooting occurred
Physicians do not think there is an
chance for the negro'S recovery. Il
was shot in the forehead, left wris
both shoulders and stomach. NJ
Whalcn was arrested and released 0
bond.
