SHORTS DEMAND SENDS COTTON UP May Opened at l0.05 and Ad-
 vanced to l0,20 NEWS IS UNSATISFACTORY Wall Street Was an Active Buyer on the Advance, But the Movement
 of Cotton Is Dlsappoint-
 ing One.
NEWS IS DISSATISFACTION

New York, April 4-Today's cotton mar ket was firm at the opening at an ad- vance of 1 to points. The subsequent course of prices was cratic owing to new developments in the May position, which, having sold as low as 9.s5 yester- day and from that up to 10.07 closing at 10. opened today at 10.05 and on rapid demand from shorts sold up to 1920 mak- ing a new high record. From this there was decline to 10 10 under profit taking, when the demand again exceeded the supply and the upward movement was renewed. While May cotton advanced from 10 to 10. 20 July advanced from 9.6S to s.73, and the still later months showed corresponding tendency to follow the May advance at distance. There was some disposition to sell the new crop months, but operations in this direction were checked by unsatisfactory news from the planting and germination of the seed. The volume of outside business this morning was but comparatively active, with public demand favoring July con- tracts. Wall street was an active buyer on the advance The movement of cotton is disappointing one.

TWO BLUE COATS.
The Owners Met in a Great Depart
Hnent Store.

The Owners Met in a Great Depart
ment Store.
Bargain day" in a city is generally
productive of comedies and tragedies,
which appeal especially to the feminine
mind. But at least one man, who was
stranded near the door of a big Bos-
ton department store, waiting for his
wife, witnessed an incident which
cheered his spirit.
Near him was q handkerchief conn
ter, and as he idly watched the tide
OF women surging round it. his glance
was arrested by a remarkably pretty
and somewhat conspicuous blue Jack
ct, curiOusly braided in black. He
gazed at it with approval for some
moments, as the wearers back was
toward him most of the time.
At last he looked away. As he
turned his eyes toward the door, his
glance fell upon another blue Jacket
exactly like the first. The woman who
was wearing it was just entering the
store. He glanced back to the hand
kerchief counter. There was the
other jacket, and what was more
the eyes of the woman who wore it
were fixed on the approaching coun-
terpart of her own garment. AS she
looked, an expression Of anger and
disgust crossed her face, and the man
who was waiting said to himself
"There's trouble ahead"
The two women approached each
other slowly, but with evident inten-
ton. The wearer of the second lack
ct had a conciliatory air as she pre-
tended to examine a fur scarf that
hung near the door.
"She won't speak unless the other
one does" thought the man, but he
was mistaken When the woman from
the handkerchief counter reached her
the other suddenly turned with a smiIe
on her face.
