A SHORTHAND UNIVERSITY

The business interests Of the Northwest
have long felt the urgent need of an in
stitution where young men and young
women could be taught the interesting
and useful art of shorthand writing in
such a manner and with such thorough
ness as to enable them to make an in
telngent use of it. 1t is generally con-
coded that graduates of so-called BUSH
ness colleges and shorthand schools are
at the time OF their graduation, as a
rule, and almost without exception, en-
tirely unable to render satisfactory and
efficient service, and if ever able to do
so 1t is only after years of experience in
actual business. They have the theory
but are noticeably lacking in the ele-
ments of knowledge which would enable
them to apply it practically. The result
has been an inferior grade of stenog-
raphers.
To Mr.. Malcolm E, Nichols, Of St. Paul,
at present and for many years past a
member of the official court reporters

Minnesota (the St. Paul districD. is

both foresight and marked originality in
the establishment of his Expert School

In the matter of 4teaching he has. with
his customary directness, eradicated from
MS preparatory course for beginners an
enormous amount of rrevelant matter

the ordinary shorthand schools, thereby

The publishers of this paper are per-

advanced methods and anticipate the flu
ture by fitting its students for anything
and everything with which they have to
contend. The Bookkeeping Department
is under the charge of an expert account

murphv <. Co.'S Cotton Letter.

New York October 14-The character of the Liverpool market when New York opened was such as to encourage buying. Prices Tn that market were much higher than looked for. Local shorts were ner- vous, and there was generally more dis position to support the market, although the government forecast after yesterday of frost ii southwest was not realized. The lowest temperature in the cotton belt was 42 to A. Nevertheless the absence of a cold wave was offset by the more fla vorable industrial situation, it being re- garded as quite certain that a settle ment of the coal strike could not be long averted since the operators were pre- pared to afbitrate
 It is pointed out that while the crop has been recovering of late, it is not suscep- tible of great improvement, and that the better outlook reported in many sections has led to a false impression of possibl ity of a heavy crop which could not be made even under the best conditions all through the winter. The enormous ex ports eontinueswith no signs of much de- crease. and so long as this is maintained it would appear ridiculous to calculate on a lower market of consequence since it's evident that the world will require all that is made. After showing the advance, the market was easier. Cables showed 1 point advance. The forecast was for fair weather in Texas and light frost in the Atlantic and gulf states. The weekly crop report was more bearish than expected Port receipts 6500O vs H000.

 a. o)
 New York. October 4.-There was con- siderable pressure the market this morning and prices were lower at one time than all last week January broke points and March sold at S.41. Each op- ton sold a point lower than before this month. Wall street conditions were against the cotton market and the strike continued. The strike Is now the main factor in the situation. If it were not for the coal strike cotton would sell high er but a man buys cotton to make mo- ney, not to back his opinion on the final outcome. As long as the immediate sur buying by both domestic consumers and domestic speculators, there is little in- ducement to buy cotton and take any risk The market will be here all the sea- son and we believe there will be more ad- vantageous times trade than at the pres ent one. 2. Should the coal strike be set tied there would be an immediate ad- vance. Of course. the, fine weather is helping the crop Immensely. Many peo- pie from the south say the crop will be considerably larger than last year. with late frosts We are inclined to agree with this view. We have all along held that as compared with an actual yield of say 10,25O00O bales last year, we are likely to have a crop of 0.5000 000 bales this year. But while this makes for uncertainty this fall a crop of that size will not meet
The Birmingham age-herald., 1902-10-15

consumption this year. For this reason we adhere to our position on the market in the long run. but regard immediate surroundings as such an uncertain quan- tity that we would only buy cotton. on a heavy break. If weather continues good this week receipts be large and the strike not settled we are inclined to look for a further decline in prices.
 Nothing but manipulation would put the market ID in face of existing factors and this Is not an inducement to buy
 As we stated last week. we would take profits for a time on any advance and only buy on a good decline.

SELLING TOWARDS CLOSE

New York, October 14.-The cotton mar ket opened with prices to points high CT on bullish Liverpool cables and ru- mors that the coal strike had been set tied The English market was up some 4 to points, when a rise of only to 2 points had been expected. The better feeling ruling of the stock market seem ed to give color to the strike reports. The advance however, failed signally to en- thuse the speculative public and after room shorts had covered the whole mar ket slowly eased off under pressure of long cotton from commission houses and bear selling. Working against the cables were fine weather reports from the entire belt and an improvement in the private crop reports.
 There were few orders to buy cotton from the foreign contingent after the call and the south, as a general thing, sent selling orders. The trade was quite cer- tain in its mind that the week south had been favorable to late cotton and when the regular government report made it's appearance at midday 1t showed quite the conditions expected. The scalping el- ement sold freely on the report and fore ed January off to s.61. The rest of the list offered little resistance to selling pressure and whIle there were slight ral- lies later in the session, on profit-taking by room traders, the market at best was heavy and favored the bears. The close was quiet with prices net to points lower. Total sales were estimated at 200, GOO bales.
 Reports from southern spot markets told of less active demand and some dis position on the part of holders to grant the concessions demanded by exporters and domestic spinners.
