MANCHESTER, June 1.-THE cloth mar
ket has gone through . somewhat unset-
tied condition. The fine weather, connected
with disappointing business, induced many
operators to extend the holiday. The hue
tuations in cotton intensified the difficulty
of negotiating orders, although some buy
ers have taken moderate parcels at higher
prices. The advance not only continues
In cotton, but on account of the gradual
decrease OF the surplus supplies In the
hands of producers, which were bought at
lower rates than those now ruling. Sales

OF the long-established markets, however,

EXPECT AMERICA TO PROTEST

Renewing Treaty NegOtia-
tiOns from Shanghai.

PICKING, June lit is expected that the
United States will object to the transfer of
the negotiations for the American and jap
anese commercial treaties from Shanghai to
this city, as it is impossible for the Amer
lean commissioner to come to Picking.
An edict ordering the transfer has now
been issued without consulting either the
United States or Japan. which omission Is
considered as discourteous to the two
powers concerned.
The Japanese negotiations have been sus-
pended and are at a deadlock owing to
China's refusal to discuss Japan's demand
for the insertion of a clause in the treaty
for the opening of Mukden and other GEN.
tiers to foreign trade.

New York to Use BituIithic.

o account of the above and official in
vestigations, New York is preparing to lay
hundred of thousands of yards of btu
lithic paving. So far as favorable reports
go 1 could give you enough to more than
fill a whole paper, from New England, New
York, Pennsylvania, Ohio and cities in sew
several southern states. and they are re-
eral southern states, and they are reports,
like the ones from New York City, which
no other kind OF paving has ever been able
to obtaln-not paid for reports, but reports
from associations and individuals who are
simply interested in getting the best posi-
BILE pavement for horses and all kinds of
vehicles and at the same time one that will
not almost put a mortgage on all city prop
erty to keep in repair.
Coming nearer home we have another
good example of what is thought of btu
lithic pavements. st. Louis has already con-
tracted for 100000 yards of It and is pre-
pairing to lay 100000 more yards. and be-
fore the big exposition opens there next
year 1t may lay a still greater quantity.
The st. Louis people are trying to put
their streets in the best possible condition
for the exposition and so are determined
to have the best pavement. But they had
to fight before they could get 1t. the asphalt
trust putting every obstacle in the way
of bitulithic, by Misrepresentation and in
every way, just as II has done in other
places and is prepared to do in Omaha.
But in st. Louis when the case got into the
courts. though the asphalt trust made a
hard fight, Judge Woods rendered a sween-
ing decision in favor OF the letting OF CON
tracts for hitulithic DENYING

representative of the asphalt trust.

FEELS GRATIFIEO At
THE THISTLE AMENDMENT.

DR.. H. L. Stevens, who first began
the agitation of the question of the
merits of the despised Russian thistle
as a forage plant. is quite gratified at
the action taken by the legislature to
repeal the law requiring its destruc-
ton. He was quoted in an interview
in this paper, and the matter was
taken up by Palmer & Whitehouse,
who will systematically cultivate the
weed for fodder, and from these dis
came the Maxwell bill to
repeal the law which became chapter
10 of the sessions laws of 1903, ap-
proved by the governor on the 18th of
this month.
DR.. Stevens says he is satisfied that
the thistle is admirably adapted to this
section, its long taproot reaching the
always present, even on the
arid plain, and that the plant, if cut
and cured, will prove good and digest
ible fodder for sheep and cattle. 1t
seems to grow and thrive in the most
unseemly places. and Messrs. White
house and Palmer are going to give it
a trial under proper conditions for just
this purpose.
