New Orleans, January 25.-During the short hours today the spot cotton market was quite active but steady. Sales were 1850 bales of which 5000 were from fac- tors tables and $50 to arrive Quotations were unchanged.

DECLINE IN LIVERPOOL

New York, Jan. 25.-The cotton market opened steady ? points lower on near months and unchanged to points higher on far months. The heaviness in near po- sitions was in sympathy with a decline of 1k to point in Liverpool, but before the close shorts became alarmed over the fa- vorable prospect for a port m movement of only 22,0o0 bales against S.7S4 last year. Immediately after the call the whole market became firm on covering foreign demand and some new buying. March stiffened up to SIP. May to S.15 and July to S.22 with the shorts much disturbed by reports that this weeks Texas move ment will be light if any more than half of that of last year. Speculation was ac- tive. all the short session with sentiment slowly swinging around to the bullish viewpoint A prominent local commission house sold some 5,oOo bales or more of May cotton. The south was a light buyer. Private wires reported spot cot ton south as f1rme CT and a shade higher on increased demand from exporters.
 The market for futures closed quiet net one point lower to two points higher. having eased off in the last half hour un- der profit-taking.

Supt. Muchmere, supervising
architect of Government buildings,
arrived here the latter part OF
last week, accompanied by Mrs.

make their home with us for a

Mr.. Muchmore is here for the
purpose of supervising the con-
struction of the Government Post
office Building, which is to be
erected on the corner of Main and
Weeks streets. He expected to
find the contractor here on the
ground awaiting his arrival, but
was disappointed in this. He now
expects the contractor by any
train The beginning of the work
has been delayed about one
mouth.
The policy of the Government
will be to push this building to
completion within the contract
time, If possible. This is good
news to our people who have
waited so long for this conven-
ience-a Government Post office
Building-and one that promises
to be an ornament to the city as
we'll. While the building will
not be as imposing as the first
plans submitted to contractors fol
their bids, and will be disappoint

yet any creditable building vii
