SPRING MAGIC

A little sun. a little rain.
A soft wind blowing from the west,
And woods and fields are sweet again,
And warmth within the mountains breast
So simple is the earth we tread.
So quick with love and life her frame,
Ten thousand years have dawned and fed.
And still her magic is the same.

Statement of BOer ENJOYS.
Messrs Wolmarans and Vessels, the Boer
ENJOYS sailed for France this morning on

.'Snce we have been in this country it has
been said that our alliance with the Irish has
hurt our cause On the eve of our return
we must deny that statement, and declare
that the alliance has been profitable to us,
both on the battlefield and by the fight which
is being waged for by the Irish members
in the English house Of parliament. First
we have to thank the Dutch, next the Irish
and then the Germans. We know also that
the people of the United States are with US
heart and SOUL and we believe that a few

senate and house of representatives would go
a great way in helping us with the nations

New York, Feb. 17.--Early indica-
tons were that receipts of cotton at
the ports would reach $4,000, against
2e000 last year. but this did not stand
in the way Of further progress in adj
vancing, the market which showed 10
Z points advance on Southern, Wall
street, buying to a moderate extent,
apparently the higher trend of the
market is far from the eliminating
point, but at the same time profit TAX
ing on all moderate advances is the
present policy in most conservative
quarters. The same people believe in
buying on all breaks and there is a
feeling that the market will show a
narrow swing for a While and is not
likely to move up by leaps and bounds,
Some thing of a shock was caused by
the forecast for Houston receipts tor
morrow indicating rs per cent. more
than last year, but little impression
was made on the market. Good buy
ing orders turning up from all direc-
TONS although May was liquidated to
considerable extent When the bull
movement win eliminate is question.
The market is feared may advance so
rapidly as to change the plans of farm
ers and induce a more extensive acre
age than up to this time has been con-
templated. While bull tips are being
circulated everywhere, special news
paper articles are being published go
ing to show what a magnificent boom
is on the way, receipts are ignored as
of no consequence in view Of the trade
demands, confirmatory reports of a
small crop are coming in despite the
liberal receipts and in many quarters
the statement is made that unsold
stocks are down to a dangerously low
point, so low that there can be no
question of a crop not over ten mil
lions. New Orleans expects tomorrow
1900 to $500, against S276; Houston
1850 to 1880, against 1883.

COTTON FUTURES.

New York, Feb. 1.-THE cotton mar
ket opened firm, with prices UP 1@11
points on a bad scare of room shorts,
due as much to fear of a roundup of
smaller bears in the absence of many
prominent operators, who We're de-
tanned by the heavy snowstorm, as to
legitimate bullish news from outside
points. June and July jumped up IL
points on the first wave of buying, but
Immediately fell back some 8G10 points
under heavy offers from long room
traders. Very little cotton was sold at
The top figures, the rise being of a
touch and-go order at best, and of no
special significance. The March option
followed a mater of-fact course all
through the session and finally closed
at the lowest figure of the day. The
Liverpool cables were fully IL points
higher than expected at the time of
the New York opening, private wires
from Southern spot markets described
strong undertone pretty much over
the entire belt with prices in many in
stances up Lice. Fall River cloth mar
ket news was the most cheering re-
ceived thus far this season. Port re-
ceipts were rather heavier than ex-
pected, and the estimates for to-mor-
rows movement rather exceeded gen.
eral ideas. AS the session wore along
it became apparent that smaller hold
ers were rather anxious to secure
profits, While some of the more conf
dent bulls were inclined to favor a re-
action on the idea. One house sold at
least $4,000 bales of May around the
opening, and throughout the session
commission houses We're peddling out
long cotton. Demand came chiefly from
abroad and the South. At the close the
market was barely steady, with prices
/ point higher to points lower.

New York, Feb. 17.-Foreign advices
We're not fully up to expectations, but
many buyers We're found at the OPEN
ing for May and July for arbitrage
account The advance in March hav-
ing alarmed them and brought about
the reversal of many straddles. On
this advance it was felt that the in
terests which are believed to have
been under this advance were free SELL
ers through brokers. As the interior
movement appeared showing semi
weekly receipts beyond any correspond
ing week on record and pointing to 50, =
600 bales, against 10000 bales last year,
the market slowly eased, notwithstand-
ing that the movement is so large the
outside interest is strongly convinced
that 1t Will soon fall off. Bombay re-
ceipts are $4,000 bales, against 35 900
last year. Since Sept. l the India,
Egyptian and American crops have
contributed 100000 bales more than last
season, supplying the spinners.

New Orleans, Feb. 17.-Liverpool adj
vices We're more favorable than ex-
pected, therefore our market opened 2
to higher, but subsequently declined
to from the top on the heavy esti-
mates for both New Orleans and Hous-
ton receipts tomorrow, and the large
interior movement, closing at. a net
loss of to points on the day. The
four principal interior towns received
$1,000 to-day, against 9,400 last week,
and 11,000 last year. Port receipts for
the last three days are practically the
same as last year. The movement
continues on an increasing scale, not
withstanding the claims constantly cir
culated of exhaustion and a perpen-
dicular drop being realized. Short crop
advocates must prove that they are
correct, which will be hard matter,
considering that facts prove that their
figures are absurd. Sentiment. how
ever, is still very bullish on the theory
that there Will soon be a decided de-
crease in the movement. This has
been promised for eight weeks and In
stead of a naturalization the excess
marketed over last year to date, has
been increased to 1852, 600 The manip-
ulative tactics INDUCED in by New
York has given temporary strength to
the situation but has not relieved the
weakness of the statistical position,
Judging from Manchester cables which
say that some stacking in the demand
for cloth is expected as most Eastern
markets have secured supplies Cor
months ahead, and stocks of yarns are
accommodating. Facts cannot be ig-
nored much longer. We therefore sug-
gest realizing profits on purchases on
strong periods.
