derson says that. judging from inquiries
made daily by prospective purchasers,
the outlook for suburban business is far
ahead of the past several years
The last step in the extensive scheme
of Improvement contemplated by the au-
thorities of Providence Hospital, will be
inaugurated tomorrow morning, when
ground will be broken for the addition
to be built on the northwest corner of
the hospital property, bounded by Sec
ond and Third, and f Streets south
east. and containing about 100000 square
feet When this work will have been
completed the property with its inn
provments will represent an approx

several years ago. occupied the western
portion OF the block, and fronted $50 feet
on D Street The frontage will now be
$50 feet on D Street. with depth vary

four stories will be maintained through

When the recent scheme of improve

This sum will scarcely be adequate. how

the plans which have entailed an addi-

Deming, of Washington, travelled
through the Eastern cities for the pur-

Gated on the port and interior receipts
of today, being freer than expected.
Later in the session fresh buying on the
steadiness of spots and the anticipation

next week caused an advance of to y
points from the bottom making the net
gain to 4 points on the day. Sentiment
continues very favorable to the article,
yet outside spectators for the moment
refuse to follow the advance, claiming
that present prices discount the strong
statistical situation. While cotton on
it's merit seems high enough, manipula-
ton may enhance values further. Not
withstanding all arguments and theories,
pro and con, prices will ultimately be
ruled by the supply and demand; there
fore the daily spot inquiry and receipts
will be the governing features.

NEW YORK COTTON.
New York, Feb. 21.-The cotton market
opened steady with prices unchanged to
4 points lower and ruled less active anu
generally easier under liquidation OF
outside long accounts, and in the face OF
some evidence of clique support. Gables
were decidedly better than expected and
were attributed to support from this
side. At New York trading was chiefly
for the purpose of evening up outstand-
ing accounts in view of Mondays holiday
and a natural Discrimination to have open
accounts with the market more or less
dominated by manipulation. Houses
with European connections bought cotton
in a small way while commission houses
bought July. The movement of cotton at
the ports today. is officially estimated at
% 600 bales, against q, 1856 last week and
10, 1893 of last year. Wall Street parties
appeared to be selling May and July

little selling for short account this

satisfactory response to the advance in
