COTTON MARKET.
Reported for the Graphic by c. c
Taylor E. Co., J. A. Ward,
Manager.

LIVERPOOL, at the opening this MOI
ing, showed a decline of ten to four
teen points on futures and TWEEN
points on spots, middling quoted 69S,
sales 5000. They steadied and re-
covered three points of the decline,
closing seven to ten points lowe
than last night. Private cables from
Liverpool explained the decline as
due to liquidation by Alexandria,
Egypt, and local longs running from
tenders on July contracts.
Our markets opened eight to ten
points lower than last night and has
ruled narrow and featureless during
the entire session, being now a. 40
p. m.) about seven to eight points
higher than the opening, and two to
three lower than last night.
The question now is, What will the
bull clique do with the July tenders :?
The 26th instant is first notice day.
and from now until then we look
for nothing more than scalping mar
ket. The course Of the market will
be determined by the disposition mad
of the tenders. In our opinion the
clique has made ample provision for
these deliveries and that they will
take of themselves. hence we
can not believe it wise to get too
heavily short this market.

Hebrews in the United States.

The members of this remarkable
race have been coming ever since the
discovery OF America, writes VIM.
E Curtis to the Chicago RecordHer-
aid, in a lengthy article on the Jews.
1t was a Jew who pointed out to
Columbus the moving light against
the dark horizon the evening before
the morning he first saw land. Two
of the oldest communities in this
country, New York and Newport, had
Jews among their earliest settlers
They came into Maryland, Pennsyl
vania, Georgia and South Carolina
with the skirmish line, and there
were two congregations of Jews in
San Francisco one year after the
discovery of gold
The census does not take account
of the religious views of the popu-
lation, but the Jewish Year Book for
1903 locates the race in the several
states as follows.
