ALIEN OWNERSHIP.
Point on Which Spanish-American
 Treaty is Stalled.

Washington, Feb. 27.-Surprise Is ex. pressed here at the report that the nego- tiations for the Spanish-American treaty are delayed on account of Spanish objec- tions to the privileges for the holding of the lands by the citizens of either coun- try in the other. This point was dis cussed pretty thoroughly some months ago and MT. Storer reported it satisfac- torily adjusted.
 The Spanish government wished it's cit izens to have power to hold lands in the United States on terms of equality with American citizens; being willing in re- turn to allow similar privileges in Spain to Americans The difficulty in the way consisted in certain United States stat utes prohibiting or limiting alien purchase of lands particularly in the territories and the District of Columbia. This diff culty was removed finally. 1t was sup posed. by the agreement of the United States government to give Spaniards the most favored nation trea tment in this matter which would, according to the common construction of treaties give them the same privileges as American citizens to hold lands and stocks.
 Of course the new treaty will have all the force of law. and. under the Supreme Court decision. if it conflicts with exist ing law upon any such point as alien ownership of lands, then it supersedes that law.

R. M. Scale 6 Co.'S Cotton Letter.


 NEW ORLEANS. Feb. 27.-The prevalence of severe storm covering large part of the South and extending up the Atlantic coast towards New York seriously interfered with wire communication and in the absence of the usual daily news dispatches. the markets settled down to very quiet tone Liverpool was somewhat disappointing. Deliveries slipped back + to [ 64 and this fact. combined with liberal estimates of receipts for tomor- row at New sOreans and Houston induced some of yesterdays purchasers here to cover and prices declined slightly in the process. Closing quotations are 4d5. points lower than yesterday.
 Aside from the fact that the movement con tinues at a rapid pace events of today were without special significance. Both sides ad- here to previous ideas concerning the size of the crop. Bears satisfied by the way cotton Is moving that maximum estimates will be vindicated while bulls confident that the country stocks have been reduced to the point of exhaustion and that receipts hencefoI&h will conform with smaller views of the yield. Meanwhile the extent of require ments for consumption figures conspicuously in the situation. Reference has frequently been made to bad trade abroad yet the undi- unfinished flow of exports from this country does not indicate the existence of such a condition and concerning the nature of bus- ness in manufactured goods at home, the will lingnesS to advance wages of mill operatives, would to be self convincing of the ac- tivity in that line, Thus while the movement causes skepticism about the size of the crop, the market has acquired and retains friends on the belief in expanded trade demand.
