NEW YORK. Oct. 2l.-The market hesitated
today. Yesterday there hardly halt in
the advance Tn,n from ar 70 sod '0 at a. and
then to S.37. The small movement seemed to
have lost some Of its power as q factor. The
early advance in January to 8. 6o brought
out long cotton and induced shorts selling in
March and May. Fine weather and poor
Liverpool response to our advance kept the
trade light and kept many from buying. But
On the other hand the fact that receipts are
liable to run 5000 bales or even 10000 bales
behind last year and there will be another big
week last year. to compare with. prevented
shorts selling Of aggressive proportions. Last
bales and next week $50. 600 bales. We are
likely to behind $50, 600 bales In next
two weeks. This would reduce the ,e excess o OF
movement over last wear to about 800 600 or
$50. 600 bales. 1t would also bring down tn !
movement to about the figures of two years
ago. 1t will be recalled that the tardy move
ment last year resulted from the late crop.
This year the season is earlier by twenty or
twenty-five days in many sections ana aii over

point. 1t says that cotton In Texas Is pretty
well picked and the top crop situation has
not changed. In North Texas top crop is being
gathered but the yield from this source Is
not likely to be heavy. taking the whole state
into consideration The central and southern
portions promise little top crop There is no
question about the damage during the sum-
Sner. If such weather as this is going to make
. big crop, what is the use Of watching all
through the summer and talking damage In
July and August. One might just as we'll sit
down and say a good October will determine
the size of the crop For this reason We place
no confidence in the big crop talk on fine Oc-
tober weather. OF course It's adding TO crop.

receipts for next two weeks we look for an
advance in prices from the present level and
would buy on breaks.

THE OPEN CHURCH DOOR.
It Ought to Be Open to the Public
All the Days in the Week.

Nashville American.
The announcement was made in The
American recently shat the doors of
Christ Church would be open on week
days. and DR.. Manning, the rector, was
quoted as saying that it had long been
his wish to do this, that 1t had panied
him to see the church shut against tire
people, adding significantly that the work
of the church was not for one day alone
This suggests the question, Is not the
work of the church too much for one day
alone? Churches in this city and else
where are doing a useful work, and in
the face of great odds. Chiefly do they
labor against the indifference of the men
and women who live under their shadows
mission and their aims. We would say no
word which would in any way discour-
age or hinder this work
But there is Enthusiastically a gulf be-
tween the churches and the people. the
masses as we'll as the classes. and in
physical way it is manifested by shutting
church doors on the days when men most
give play to their energies, as If. when
they were AT their best, when mind and
body are most active. when they are
planning thinking. working with all their
might and what we call living at their
topmnst bent they should be farther from
the Infinite the Ruler of all?
Men and the churches should be closer
together. The churches give us the spirit
of Christianity that We may disseminate

comes the everlasting waters that cleanse
and heal. Shall We place a wall around
this fountain, and dam up the streams
that flow from It?
1t is not practicable. we know, 10 keep
all church doors open every day in the
week. but the idea appeals to us, and we
think wherever possible ii should be done
The open church door Is but a passive in
luence but one that will have its effect
The Christianity needed Is one that goes
into the haunts of men. that is with
them in their daily life. in their business
in their recreation. We have not correct
ly interpreted the Christian spirit when
we put II from us six days in the week
only to take it on the seventh day as we

We need from the churches an interpre-
tation of life, that men and women NAV

what work is expected of each The
churches should point us to the primrose
path, primrose even though it be paved
with the sharpest stones, but hedged in
with primroses OF love and duty, which

Ottumwa, March 1.-The Courier to-
day makes an authorized announcement
of the candidacy of Ex- Senator b. f.
Carroll, of Bloomfield, Davis county, for
the republican nomination for state
auditor. He is said to have been a
neutral in the Cummins and anti Cum
Minis contest and it is believed he will
have the support of the southern por-
ton of Iowa for the position he seeks.
Carroll served one term in the senate

time of the nomination of Auditor F.

apprehension among Mr.. Merriam's
friends that his name would be sprung,
tho 1t was not. 1t was recognized al the
time that he would be a formidabl9
candidate in case he entered the list. 1t
is the belief of politicians here that he
will draw support from all sources, re-
CARELESS of previous factional align
ments, and that he is one of the candi-
dates to reckoned with.

l mentioned places which had been
helped for years by missionary money
which had not only become self sup
porting but had built handsome
churches. I mentioned places which
felt sure would soon be self-supporting.
spoke of places where we had strug-
gle to maintain services which were
giving evidence of vigorous life. 1 do
rot consider statistics of much value
but as a matter of fact, the Episcopal
church in Iowa showed last year a
growth in the number of communicates
of ten per cent and an increase in
money raised of $4,000. This increase
was due in part to more complete re-
turns, but there had been an increase
and an encouraging one. The present
reed is that every baptized member of
the church shall give generously to the
work of church extension SO that ev
cry church may be opened for regular
services and we shall miss no oppor-
tunity of planting new missions.
