 NEW ORLEANS. April 9.-Consdering that this was the final trading day of the week owing to the observance of Easter holidays covering Good Friday and Saturday following, the cotton markets acted exceedingly tame There was an absence of the customary liqui- dation accomplished on such occasions. suggest ing that traders had previously provided for the event. but this did not interfere with the maintenance of steady prices Liverpool hardly moved Spots were unchanged with limited demand and deliveries managed to improve about points As recent cables predicted an improvement in the English market after the holidays, 1t remains only to be patient and see what will happen. Local trading was mixed in character and the quantity was re- stricted. There offerings of conse- Quence and several large bids from big bulls helped to establish a moderate improvement. otherwise the disposition was to let matters alone The main features of tn estimation are practically unchanged. The general opinion Is that the size of the crop Is not sufficient Tor the worlds requirements, even at higher level of prices and 1t seems necessary to dis sipate this theory completely if any serious re- taxation in values Is to be observed. Accord ing to advices rapid progress has been made with planting preparations since the advent of clear weather, but this does not alter the fact that planting Is decidedly late and the chances are that the movement of the new crop will be correspondingly tardy. Thus for the present 1t appears that the buyer continues to enjoy less risk than the seller. Market will be closed till Monday morning.

NEW YORK. April o,-The cotton market opened 2@4 points higher on small sales. Ju'y led in point of activity and worked up 6 points There was disposition to do much in the market today since New York was to close from this evening until Monday. Liver pool will close tomorrow. Saturday and Mon day and New Orleans tomorrow and Saturday. Owing to the close tomorrow. the usual week end figures will be missing; sentiment stiil leans to the long side of the market. but there is not much snap to the speculation. The oriy noteworthy feature as to the crop Is --fe to calculate on this having some effect on the market later on, but not at this time Less Is heard than expected as to increase in the acreage and all-in-al 1t looks as if the proposed increase in some sections will be off- set by reductions in others The scalping fra ternity monopolzed business most of the day Weather was generally fair with indications of continued fine conditions. Receipts at all ports were estimated at 900, against the a much higher market Cables were quiet at l6D3 points higher. Manchester dull.

 NEW ORLEANS, April 9.-Liverpool was somewhat better than expected. and our mar ket in sympathy opened 4d6 points higher on near months, on September and l on the late months. Realizing shortly after superin- duced decline of POS points but when this pressure was removed fresh buying came in and occasioned an advance of 7@8 points from the bottom on old crop months and 394 or new. msking the net gain 6Ae points on old crop r1sitions and 2G4 on the new. The ap- preaching holidays and the apathy of outsid- CTS has reduced trading to minimum basis. Notwithstanding the lack of speculation the wards. The demand for spots is limited but values continue steady with the manipulation existing in all markets opinions as to the fu- ture course of crop options are valueless.

Rome, May 5.-The visit of the

supposed to have this time far

believed that Emperor. William has
great plan, namely, that of using
the power of Catholicism to create
great colonial empire and especially
in South Africa, through the work of
missionaries. Thus the emperor took
quite extraordinary measures to rem

so far as to create even a little un-
easiness in Italian liberal circles.
