.I,c Demand Satisfactory-Rosin
Quiet and Unchanged-LocaI and
refegra phic Markets.
r. The Morning News Office,
Wednesday, March 10.
The cotton market seems to be in
q nosition to move again very soon
o4ter a pause of several days. To- day
v.ss another of the uneventful ses-
y sions which closed with a rather small
volume of business, and without suffi-
cent price changes to attract the at
tention of the average outsider. The
question with market operators at the
n,onent is. which direction the turn
will. be, and as this depends upon so
nanv, conditions the usual doubt pre-
walls. Probably the threatened strikes
at Fall River had something to do
with the caution observed, while a
check in the demand for cotton also
nlayed more or less part.
Il, While the movement will have much
"a do with the course of prices for
some time to come the demand is con-
sidered by many as an overshadowing
consideration, for unless the product
IS wanted by consumers the bulls will
have difficulty, according to many, in
inAating a buH boom. The current
belief is that American mills will re-
duire considerable cotton yet, and the
trade are looking daily with great
confidence for the appearance of this
demand Europe is claimed to be
largely supplied, at least so far as the
, near future lis concerned and a num-
her of .spinners American representa-
tives lock up shop these days and quit
the field early, which is literally con-
strued in sizing up conditions abroad.
.peThe turpentine market closed firm at
45@46c, with the demand good. Resins
closed quiet and unchanged, with the
demand light. Resume of the markets

well remember one "Abner"--so he was
always called IN his town Abner was
the wit Of the village although rather
looked down on by the average citizen
because OF his inability to hold on to
the goods Of this world
Abner was commonly selected 10 take
charge OF funerals, because he was
about the only man In town who had
time hanging on his hands. A citizen
died, man who never amounted to
much. who vas never positively wicked,
because that would hare required more
Of an effort than he was willing TO
make He was however, far enough
from being good citizen, and Abner
knew Il as well az ANYBODY else.
Abner Was requested TO ask a GER
tain minister 20 conduct the service,
and he hitched up his old horse and
drove TO his house. The minister said
he would attend and then tried to get
a little information concerning the late
lamented.
