Speculation Continues and the Range

The representative stocks as rule rose

The tone was Somewhat unsteady at the
top.
The conspicuous factor in the market was
the cessation of the urgent liquidation
which has mystified and disquieted specu-
lative sentiment for some time. Prices
were slightly higher during the second hour
than in the first, but buyers were disin-
clined to follow the advance. A price level

The paucity of the demand for stocks at
the higher level led to some renewed SELL

COTTON MARKET.
Less Rush and Excitement Than Mark
ed Last Few Days.

NEW YORK, May 26-Trading was fair
ly active in the cotton market at the OPEN
ing today. but there was comparatively
marked the last two weeks. Still the
cables were better than due on the local
closing of yesterday. and while the move
ment continued heavy and the weather
more recently has been considered more
favorable the market opened firm at a
decline Of points on May to an advance
of II points, with the new crop months
again exhibiting the greatest strength.
Speculation early was quite general, the
transactions being IN smaller lots. but COM
ing from a greater number of sources.
Europe, the south and commission houses
bought the late months on the theory that
the weekly bureau report due at noon
is also disposition to look for bullish
monthly report on. June 3.
The New Orleans market was a leading
factor being especially strong and erratic
with a private wire stating that the bull
leader was bidding II cents for 10000 Au-
gust after having bid the market up from
LIS and getting little cotton on the ad-
vance. Locally trading became less active
after the CALL but sentiment was very ner-
vous and the market continued very firm
at prices about 8 to 10 points over yester-
days closing.

MISS HARVEY's FEARLESSNESs.
Young Woman Used Plain Language
Replying to DR.. Abbott.

Special Dispatch to The Evening Star.
RICHMOND. Va, May 26.-The Evening
Star last week gave an account Of the COM
mencement exercises of Hartshorn Me-
mortal Institute (colored), during which
Sadie Elizabeth Harvey, a graduate, took
exception to an utterance of DR.. Lyman
Abbott at the southern educational COM
ference held in the Academy of Music last
month.
Miss Harvey's exception was to the
learned doctors declaration that the ne
gro would never attain the degree of in
telligence of the white man and that for
this reason the whites should not fear to
assist In his education. She said: Had
the gentleman stated that the negro had
not yet attained the degree Of intelligence
which the white man has attained we
would have assented, for 1t Is not to be
expected that a race with one genera ton
of freedom should have attained the de-
gree of excellence in anything which a
race with generations and generations OF
learned and cultured ancestors has at
tanned
Some one has said that it takes three
generations to make gentleman. If this
be true. then surely we should be allowed
as long time before they begin to spec
ulate as to the capacity Of our intellect.
God did not create US sons of Ham
and sons of Shem. We were all created
one. The division has been made since the
creation.
I'VE have been among the last of the
races to be reached by the Gospel and our
progress has been retarded by the oppres-
sion of our ancestors, but when we have
had behind us generations of culture, we
believe the negro will reach the same de-
gree of intelligence as his white brother"
This reply to the editor of the Outlook
was greeted with prolonged applause. The
young woman is from Memphis and her
parents are evidently wealthy, for she says
that she is studying to enter one of the
higher women colleges of the north. and
that it is hardly likely that she will teach
after her education is completed.

ROOSEVELT IS POPULAR.
Hanna Will Find It Hard to Defeat
Resolution in Ohio.
.ch to The Evening Star.

Special Dispatch to The Evening Star
COLUMBUS, Ohio. May 26.-Impartal
politicians here this morning regard the
statement of President Roosevelt in regard
to his proposed Endorsement for the presi-
Dental nomination next year as practically
removing the ground from beneath Senator
Hannas arguments against the adoption
of such resolution by the Ohio republican
state convention.
In an interview here last week Senator
Hanna stated that he knew President
Roosevelt did not expect or want such an
Endorsement.
Ii appears from the Presidents statement
published this morning that he will regard
failure of the Ohio republicans to indorse
him now for the nomination next year as
meaning that they do not want him.
President Roosevelt is very popular in
the state. and it looks as though it would
be very difficult now for Senator Hanna to
prevent the adoption of the indorsing reso-
luton.
