New York, May 5.-The cotton market opened steady with prices to points higher in keeping with gratifying im- provements in the Liverpool market and active covering by room shorts who had sold freely late Saturday in expectation of further weakness in the English mar ket today. For a very brief period the market gave promise of doing better, but turned a sharp corner at 1010 o'clock un- der reports that three Wall street houses had suspended.
 At first the selling was of a wavering type with the room inclined to believe cotton would not be seriously affected Then came heavy selling for outside ac- count, a marked break in Liverpool and serious declines in the stock market. Tight money" reports and official an nouncement on the weather map that good rains had fallen over the Western belt, where most needed. completed the load upon the bulls and a scramble to sell out ensued. Prices broke heavily and there was not a single halt until July had sold off from 9.24 to S.99. Even then buyers were slow to come forward while every point rally was He signal for fresh selling of large proportions. Then came rally of 13 points on covering and support for turn followed by another slump to s.OS for July and under another wave of heavy liquidation. The trade was in a semi-demoralized state and no concerted action was taken to check the freight of the outside public. Whereas the stock market stiffened up later the cotton market continued in feverish state throughout the balance of the morn- ing and during most of the late session.
 Near the close the ring was influenced to some extent by exports of nearly l7UO bales as compared with port receipts Of 300 bales and by a loss in interior stocks of 4500 bales. The final prices were steady net to g points lower, Total sales were c1ose to 50O 0n0 bales

Even the most cynical among Free

among the promoters of the Cuban
sympathy uprOar must admit the stag
gering force of these official figures.

and which for the current yea- is pre-
pairing to erect SO additional plants in

of $45 100000 of capital, with a sugar
beet purchasing capacity of S14 zoe, 900

worth reckoning with Among other
things, there are 1T representatives
in Congress to be elected this year
from these States, and two years hence
these States will choose 213 Presi-
Dental electors Certainly there is
enough in the situation as disclosed
by the statistics of the Department of
Agriculture to make some people stop
and think whether it is safe to brush
aside the domestic sugar industry as if
it were of sort of consequence
whether it live or die as the result of
being knocked on the head with Free
Trade hammer. The figures presented
by Mr.. Saylor would seem to indicate
that it is of very serious consequence
to many people in many States of the

EpIgram on Clubs.

The immense growth of London
clubs ana of the opportunities afforded
for games of chance may serve to re-
call an epigram which -eBentIey's Mis-
cellany'' attributed sixty years ago to
Sydney Smith.
He was at Sunday dinner at Hol-
land House, when the hostess said that
woman's passion for diamonds was
surely less ruinous than mans pas
sion for play at his club Thereupon
sydney Smith took a card and wrote
the following impromptu:
Thoughtless that all that's brightest
fades.
Unmindful of that knave of spades,
The sexton and his subs;
HOW foolishly we play our parts
Our wives on diamonds set their
hearts,

the entire profit of the proposed re-
