AN ARMED ATTACK
boER GENERAL THREATENS TO
MAKE TROUBLE in UNITED
STATES.
SOUNDS WARNING TO PRESIDENT
BRITISH AGENTS NEAR NEW
ORLEANS WILL BE swooPEp
DOWN UPON.
SOUNDS WARNING TO PRESIDENT
MAY GET INTO SERIOUS TROUBLE
WILL NOT BE ALLOWED TO FIGHT
BoER WAR ON AMERICAN
TERRITORY.

Washington, Feb. 9. - Gen. Samuel
Pearson, late OF the Boer army who
has been in this country for a wear en-
gagged In working UP sentiment for the
cause OF the burghers, has sent a form
I'll communication to President Roose-
welt, indicating an intention to organize
an armed force OF Boer s~ympathizers
at New Orleans to make an attack on
q camp established by British military
agents near that city whence horses
ana mules are shipped to the British
army in South Africa.
What action the government will
take to prevent Gen. Pearson from car
rying out his expressed intention can
not be definitely ascertained, bus it is
believed that orders have been sent to
the federal authorities at New Orleans
to prevent the Boer representative from
Literally Reversing
the classical slogan Of Carrying the
war into Africa" Gen. Pearson has
spent much time in Washington vainly
~endeavoring to induce the administra-
ton to stop the shipment of animals
from New Orleans to Cape Town. Re-
Gently he has been in New Orleans, and
ala letter to the president was written
there. He has sent several c~ommunica-
lions to the president on the subject,
but he has received no response, and
Mr.. Roosevelt is notified that the let
ter containing the proposed attack on
the British camp is a last solemn APP
peal" The camp is located at Port
ChalInette, a short distance from the
Crescent City. Gen. Pearson contends
that a British military post has been
established there. garrisoned by British
soldiers, who, while they do not wear
scarlet or khaki uniforms. are engaged
In warlike preparations.
To Prevent BloOdshed.
Gen. Pearson has never received any
official recognition from this govern
ment. and 1t is not probable that his
letter will be answered. According TO
hts notification, a failure to receive an
answer may be followed by a hostile
movement against the camp. The gov
eminent is always careful to Illustrate
any design that may involve 1t in COM
plications with a foreign power, and
ar organization of an armed force by
Gen. Pearson will certainly be followed
by interesting developments.
The government will do all in Its
power to avert bloodshed, and will, X
possible, prevent any battle between
Brltons and Beers on American terri
tory. The forts at the mouth of the
Mississippi are garrisoned by United
, States troops, who could be quickly as
sembled at New Orleans.

"I wouldn't care" he said, IF there

vance this morning and then the inev- itable decline There Is no speculation to put cotton higher, and If present ideas on supply and demand are correct there is nothing in the situation itself to force prices higher as long as crop news is good. We fail to see anything in the i'm mediate outlook to offer inducements in that direction.
 As one broker said this morning: What argument can I bring forward to get a man to buy cotton?" The start of the new crop Is the best in years. There's ev- cry reason to believe there will be enough of the old to go round. There's a severe strike in the coal regions that may upset conditions generally and stop machinery in some cases. The yarn market is in very irregular shape and weaker than for many months. Cotton is selling at a very tigh price after being advanced steadily for a year
 A year ago prices were under 7c, dis tant options selling at 6.92. Now, after three successive crop failures. we have sentiment against the prospect of big crop just as 1t was against the possibility of small crop in 1899. Every one Is get ting educated to high prices. It may be we are going to have another crop fail- ure. That no man knows Only chances are against 1t and the start Is against it.. We could not advise the purchase of cot ton over cents in the spring of the year on the crop. We cannot advise the pur- chase of new at 7% under such conditions as we have today. As long as weather keeps good we will have new low record made every few weeks, but with quick advances.
