CRy the Associated PRESS

New York, March 24.-Sellers in the
dry goods market were firm. nothwith-
standing the decline in today's cotton
prices over Saturday used by the buy
ers as an argument. The market opened
with fair mail orders and moderate
amount of business was transacted dur
ing the day The scarcity of ready sup
plies and the oyer-sold many mills kept
prices firm. Print cloths remained firm
and without any demand of moment
COTTON.
New York. March 24--Cotton OPP
ened steady. with prices points lower
to 1 point higher. and then turned very
weak under tremendous liquidation by
commission houses and room holders
Heavy bear pressure and singular alb
sence of bull support made the fall
more than usually rapid, and not until
May reached $50 and July SIS did prices
show the least resistance TO the selling
movement. Before midday a slieht i'm
provement was noted and for the rest of
the session the market WORKED slowly
upward, prices reaching nearly Satur-
days final bids on coverings and fair
new buying. Yet sentiment remained
generally bearish on unfavorable cables
from Liverpool and much heavier re-
ceipts at all points than expected. The
bears made the most of the liberal es-
innate for tomorroW's Houston receipts
just before midday and tried again to
make capital of the New Orleans esti-
mate which came in at 1890. Yet con-
sentative shorts believed the liCuida-
tier to have discounted much in the day
of closing out weak long interests and
warranted fresh sizing up of the situ-
alton Private accounts from Southern
interior markets declared that spot cot
ton was being eagerly purchased by
mills and exporters with sellers decided
ly less numerous than at this time in
many years Tho feature of the after
noon trad.pg was the purchasing of
big line OF July for the account of West
ern interests, which sold from 10000 to
$4,000 bales last week above $50 for July
The close was steady with prices to
points lower.

EDDYISM IN BERLIN
CHRISTIAN SCIENCE STRIKES GER
MAN CAPITAL.
NEWSPAPERS FILLED WITH IT
EMPEROR WILLIAM is GREATLY
INCENSED.

He Denounces the Faith Healers
and All Their Cult as Syvindlers
and Takes steps Against Them.
He COnfers with superintendent
of Churches and President of PO-
Iice-Public Halls Closed to the
Scientists and They Are Barred
From Court-Will Make No Mar
tyrs at Present, However.
Berlin, Feb. s." "Eddyism," as Chris
tian Science is called here, is the SEN
sation of the moment. The comic pa
pers caricature it, the weighty relig-
ious periodicals marshal polemics
against it, and the daily press prints
much descriptive matter regarding
what is called 1.-The latest American inn
portation," saying it was only brought
here. after it had been worn out in
the United States" Emperor Williams
conference with DIR. Faber, superin
tendent of the churches in the Berlin
jurisdiction, and Herr Won Windheim,
the police president, as to what steps
shall be taken, has alarmed the Chris
tian Scientists, but nothing has as yet
been done against them, except the
withdrawal from certain public halls
meetings. On Friday evening a meet
ing was prevented through a police no
tice posted on the door. The mama
gers of the Christian Science campaign
are trying to secure a building owned
by Americans, thinking that in this
case the police are less likely to inter-
fere. The enthusiasts welcome the pub
lie excitement, averring that it gives
Christian Science an impetus.
The newspapers say Emperor Will
liam intends to take energetic meas
ures against all forms of obscurantism
practiced for money and insist that
the heavy fees charged for healing
amount to swindling.
The leaders of the Christian Science
crusade are selling Mrs. Eddy's book
for twenty marks. Emperor William is
so incensed at the spiritualist move
ment that he has issued notification
through the North German Gazette
that all persons in any way connected
with spir1tualists, faith -healers, Chris
tan Scientists or kindred cults, will
hereafter be rigidly excluded from the
imperial court
The evening papers to-day print fur
ther details regarding Emperor Will
liam's talk about "Eddyism." Herr Won
Windheim says he found His
Majesty thoroughly informed
about the matter. The Emperor
expressed strong disapprobatio of
prayer healing, but agreed that Herr
Won Windheim must make no martyrs.
The North German Gazette says EN-
peror William gave it to be plainly un-
derstood that he believes Christian
Science and the like should be rigidly
excluded from the court.
The German followers of the Ameri-
can Christian Science community in
Berlin number about 200 persons.

learned as they are known to the con-
tracing firm only by numbers. The
scene of the accident was a 25-foot cut
about a thousand feet from the new
steel viaduct, which is being con-
structed by the American Bridge Com
pany. The men had entered the cut
with Superintendent McConville and
were preparing to make a blast, the
charge had Just been connected up

moments warning. The men were
buried beneath tons OF earth and rock.

tives of the injured men, are securing
the country for Foreman Charles Hag-

Of constitutional methods are slowly
but surely giving way to the strong
physical force section"
According to the correspondent,
'Lord Salisbury's speech of Wednes-
dav last before the Junior Constitu-
tional Club leads people to hope that
the government has at last learned the
lesson Indl HOHle IUlS CduilOI De hlllGQ

has become aware of the terrible havoc
being worked by the league through
out Ireland"
The correspondent adds:
'Irishmen who have Just returned
from the United States aver that no
support will be given to the disloyal
cause unless the discussions and scenes
in Parliament give place to something
more active in Ireland itself. The
American end of the campaign is be-
ing run by men who are all of the
same stamp as Finerty, who recon-
mends dynamite and rifles. Young Ire
land is being taught to believe in the
coming storm, and to openly speak
thereof with enthusiasm. The policy
of kindness has convinced the peasant
ry that the reign of the British is al
most at an end. and in truth the Brit
ish statute book is already suspended
and the Court of League is supreme. >
