NEW YORK COTTON, Jan. 19-The cotton
market opened steady with prices to points
higher. The early improvement due largely
to indications of leading strength on the part Of
the spot markets, based demand from the ex-
portcrs and spinncrs. Public cables opened up
in better shape by about 1 point than looked
for. and private cables reported pretty good
buying at Liverpool following Saturdays better
showing at Manchester. After the first sales
there was recession of a point on some of
the more active positions. but the market soon
turned strong again and scored a net advance Of
3Gl6 points within the first hour, the upward
movement being partly due to strong forecasts
sight this week The market received consider
able support in the way of buying orders from
Europe, the south and from the grain interest at
Chicago, though nearly all sections sent more
or less liberal orders to sell out long cotton for
the purpose of securing profits 4.
At noon the market was firm but quiet, with
prices l to 3 points higher. The south and
the spot cotton interests continued to buy the dis
tant months, particularly after the light Hous-
ton estimate for to-morrow's receipts came in

G. T. Yerkes, the. triumphant electric
tube king, has a reputation for doing
things we'll. Perhaps the explanation lies
in rule which he always observes. This
is never to take up more than one thing
at a time. He was asked the other day
whether he was going to engage in any
new schemes. IF a man came to me
with guarantee that he could make gold
en- sovereigns out Of scrap iron.' he said,
II would not join him or back him. One

Lexington, KY, July 23.-After a
life OF prominence as warrior, states

clared insane, General Cassius NJ Clay,
passed away at his home, Whitehall,

Denial is Made.
"That Mr. Miller had cheapened any
class of work for the government, and
that was the cause of his suspension
and expulsion, is not true" the state

the most unbusinesslike of
any foreman in the office,
and his tactics in punish
ing men under him were contemplate.
In Office and public places he made use
of scurrjlous and abusive epithets
about employees, causing distrust in
his division as to permanence of en-

PoPE's WILL NOT YET OPENED.
Leo's Estimates Say, However, All His
Estate is Left to the Church.

Rome, July 23-The will of Pope
Leo is still unopened, as proved by the
fact that his apartment is sealed.
Otherwise the objects there would
have oeen disturbed in accordance
with the instructions left by him.
Leo's estimates say, however, they
know that the testament begins with
advice about religion and morals, and
that it declares his firm intention to
leave all he possessed to the church.

to be personal property, on the ground
that no one could claim anything he

ties of blood and affection.

States on the authority of the Tribuna

been opened by Cardinal Oreglia, and
that it showed the pope had left a
privates fortune of $15,000,00, was
premature, and was retracted in a
