THE CABLES DISAPPOINTING

New York, March 1.-The cotton mar ket opened steady with prices to 10 points higher on a furry of general buy ing led by shorts who were once more aroused by the strength manifested by Southern spot markets. Soon after the call May jumped to S6O on continued demand from nervous shorts and in the absence of liberal offerings. Pronounced strength of the March option helped to tone up the later months. Around S.6O the profit taking being active and for time checked further bull progress though failing in any way to diminish the confidence of holders. Trading was very active throughout the short session with Europe and Wall street active buyers on the advance. The cables were disappoint- ing and receipts at the ports were rather larger than looked for but their feeling exerted little influence. Closed steady. net to points higher.

PawnbrOISers and Detectives VIII
Face Each Other.

In Police Court this morning the city
detectives, and E. Muhlberg and Ar
thur Deutsch, pawnbrokers who took
in some of the diamonds stolen from
Theus Bros. and Desbouillons by Ma
mie DeCris, will face each other and
tell about the manner in which the
stolen property was returned on the
daily reports that the pawnbrokers are
required under ordinance to make to
the police.
Cases against the pawnbrokers have
been regularly docketed and they are
charged with failing to have properly
reported certain articles taken in pawn.
AS witnesses against the two defend
ants Supt. of Police Owen Reilly and
Detectives Stark. Murphy and Wall
are named. The investigation promises
to be an interesting one and the re-
ports of the two pawnbrokers will be
put in evidence by the prosecution.
f. Muhlberg, one of the men on the
docket, called upon Mayor Myers at
the City Exchange yesterday and de-
clared that he wanted the matter in
vestigated from start to finish. He
said that he has no fear of a full in
vestigation. Mayor Myers assured his
caller that justice will be done all of
those interested, and that the conduct
and actions of the plain clothes men
will be looked into along with the in
vestigation of the charges recorded on
the police blotter.

THE Lake Ontario center moved

TO LESSEN COUNTRY DAMAGE.

Care in Handling Cotton.

Care in Handling Cotton.
Mr.. Arthur c. Humphries of Norfolk,
was here yesterday as the spokesman
for the committee representing marine
underwriters in looking after their in
terests at all terminals in the trans
portation of the products they insure
and the manner of handling cotton in
particular. He called upon officials Of
the Central of Georgia Railway, includ-
ing President John NJ. Egan, to dis
cuss with him the handling of cotton
to prevent damage to 1t as far as pos
sible.
Mr.. HUMPHREYS visited the terminals
to acquaint himself with the methods
of handling cotton. What he is par
ticularly interested in is the providing
of shelter and other means to prevent
what is known as country damage"
to cotton. such as that caused by rain
mud in handling 1t about the stations
and terminals and other causes Of
damage. He states that pretty steep
reclamations have at times been asked
against cotton passing through some
ports on account of country damage.
This he states may be remedied, and
his purpose is to call attention to con-
ditions with a view to preserving the
product in transit
1.-The careful handling of cotton and
exporting it in good condition is a big
advantage to any port" said Mr..
HUMPHREYS. 1T increases the value of
the cotton to consumers, who give the
preference to ports known for export
ing it with the least possible country
damage"
Mr. HUMPHREYS left for New Orleans
last night, where he will look into the
condition of handling through that

Rose johnson and Rachael Harris.
accused of stealing a pistol from the
person of Emanuel Green. will tell how
it happened. Emanuel is a deputy OF
the City Court, and as such is en-
titled to carry his pistol concealed.
Henry Davis, who, by artful means
and deceitful practice acquired a small
fortune, is another one of those now in
Jail who will talk for his liberty this
morning. Davis is a rather plausible
conversationalist, and he will probably
be called upon to press his gift of CAB
into service to-day.
William Miller, the little darkey who
raised a receipt at Knights Phar-
macy, from $1.05 to $1.20, will be ar
raigned for cheating and swindling.
His prosecutor is the wife of a former
policeman. The case against the boy
is open-and-shut, and 1t is highly
probable that he will pay dearly for
his futile attempt to get money with
out working for it.
There are others who will be brought
before the court. Migrants, thieves,
scrappers, swindlers, gamblers, in fact,
the gamut of common misdemeanors
seems to have been run since the last
criminal session of the court.
The nerviest individual who has for
several seasons appeared before the bar
of justice is David Stevens, who will
plead his cause before Judge Norwood
in the criminal session of the City
Court this morning. He stole chick
en- from an officer of the law. The
depreciation was committed, so swears
Constable H. NJ. Morgan, on Wednes-
day night.
Mr.. George NJ. Norton also caught a
| brazen-faced thief, one John Scott,
who was in the act of making away
with a bedstead. Scott will face his
| accuser this morning, and endeavor to
explain to the court just how he came
into possession of the property.
Lewis Maxwell and Frank Cameron,
who were detected in a quiet game of
dice, will be arraigned for gambling.
For stealing a stuffed hog, Mic Deter
will be tried. A warrant against an
n. Deter is truly something without a
archaeological precedent. Sam Jewett,
who entered the home of Marcus
Brown, intent on purlofning something
size, shape or value imma terial-find-
ing nothing to appropriate except a
broom, made it his own in a manner not
countenanced by the code. He will be
among the unfortunates at this MORN
ing's matinee performance.

similar articles at the Atlantic Coast
Line yards, made the arrest.

served Promotion.
Mr.. Clarence S. Connerat has been
appointed sergeant-major of the First
Regiment of Cavalry, the post having
become vacant by the resignation of
Col. G. Noble Jones, on his appoint
ment to the Governors staff.
The appointment is a deserved COM
pliment to Mr.. Connerat. Prior to
receiving it he was a sergeant in the
Georgia Hussars, which honor he
gained shortly after his reinlistment
under the command of Capt. Gordon.
1t was his desire to swell the roll of
the troop which caused him to rein
list. He\has the distinction of having
been the youngest veteran member
the Hussars have ever had in their
century, and more, of existence. He
is an expert sabreur, having won nu-
merous prizes by his skill in this re-
spect.
The appointment will necessitate his
retirement to the veteran list again.
While his services to the troop will be
missed, his friends are happy at his
good fortune

LONG TERM CONTRACT.
VIII Probably he Made for Building
New Germania Bank.

Although two meetings of the Build
ing Committee from the directors of
the Germania Bank were held yester-
day it was not positively determined
who should be given the contract for
building the new bank on Congress
and Bull streets, or under what con-
ditions the work will be done.
1t is believed that the committee
will recommend that the contractor
whose bid is accepted be given until
September 1904 to do the work. The
long term bids opened some time ago
were more reasonable, and at that
time the Building Committee thought
it wiser to extend the time to be al
lowed for the building Of the new
bank. There are two sets of bids be-
ing considered, one in which it is
agreed that the bank viii be finished
by September 1903. and the other maxi
ing the date of completion a year later.
After all the matter will be referred
to the Board of Directors.
