calculated to provoke interest. lie was

with a luxurious brilllancy that awed
every boholder. on the fingers other
jewels proclaimed the riches Of their
wearer. while from pocket TO pocket

stranger followed up his first liberali-

knew no bounds.
The only exception to Bunts' admir-.

local bad men sitting ut the same

Many of our Democratic friends, as
well as others, drop in every day and
urge the paper to protest against the
bad light service. We appreciate the
compliment, but mnst admit that
everything possible, apparently, has
been done by the press of the city TO
secure better lights, but several weeks
of dillydsllying on part of city off
cials have not sufficed to bring about
any improvement We trust that
some time during the present genera
tion the city will do what is necessary
to get better light service.

Mayor Carter Harrison of Chicago
seems to realize something that has
always been more or less true, and
that is that one Of the best ways to
eliminate existing evils is TO regulate
them. Chicago has had a gambling
crusade, and Mayor Harrison has adj
mitted his inability TO stamp il out in
the following words: Gambling can
only be held under cover. You can.
not exterminate IL; you cannot blot it
out. So long as there is nm element
in human nature-deprayed, if you
will have it that wsy--that longs for
chance, you will have gambling in
one form or another. With 10000
policemen the best | could do would
be to make it Improbable for people

less nervousness among spinners over the question Of supplies and with any kind el bull leadership the market could be ad- vnnced easily. There Is no accumulation of cotton h any direction and the present excited condition of trade might make an advance easy. Wall street selling can prevent an advance for time, but not for long If the situation warrants higher prices. It will be remembered that the same selling and the same methods were employed just cent lower in July and early August, After falling 10 break the market. sellers turned and bought. Bear circulars were Issued st that time every fifteen or twenty minutes and today the same thing is going on. It means some one Is heavily short and doing his best to get company on his side. Until receipts increase we would continue to buy on every break.

 There was practically no change In the stock and bond market. Georgia Is still active.

 SEVERAL POINTS Indications Point to BulIlsh Week-End Statement BUYING TOWARDS CLOSE Stocks at Interior Towns Have Lost Thus Far This Week 12,ooo Bales.

 Receipts 11,ooo Bales.
BUYING TOWARDS CLOSE

New York, January s,-The cotton mar ket opened quiet and steady with prices one point higher to two points lower and following the call ruled. rather quiet, but firm for a time on light estimates for receipts, notwithstanding the disappolnt- Ing Liverpool cables, which, due to some three to four points lower, reported a de- cline of four points. The early business resulted In general advance of to ! points. but from this point the market reacted to 6 level not far from last nisht's figures. The decline was largely the re- suit of rather indifferent public de- mand, and also moderate move for profits The crowd was generally long and some fears were expressed of another raid on the market, similar to that of the proceeding day. This however. proved sroundless, and Wall street was at no time prominent on either side of the ac- count to an great extent. The stocks at interior towns have lost thus far this week 12ooo bales and todsys interior movement showed receipts of but about 11,ooo bales net. foreshadowing a bulllsh weekend statement tomorrow. Towards the close there was some buying in an- ticipation of the expected strength of to- morrow's statistical showing. and while the market was somewhat irregular. values showed an upward tendency on active months with the close steady and prices net three points lower to five points higher. Sales were lso.o bales.

Taking all the factors into consideration. we are inclined to fa- vor the buying side In spite of bear pro- ciamations and bear hammering.
