 Four or Five Off.

New York. May 26.-The cotton market opened steady at decline of 10 points under moderate liquidation The decline was hardly as great as warranted by the early cables owing to more or less coy- ering at the lower level by sellers of the previous day and the new crop ruled rel atively steady for while the weather man showed benerally favorable conditions over large portion of the belt, there was talk of lower temperatures in the west and the forecasted showers for eastern states were not indicated by the map nor did the trade consider that they were likely to prove more than scatter ing sprinkles.
 Following the call. however, the ab- sence of bull support caused a slight further decline with July selling down to 12.69 and October to 1070. But 1t was evident that the market had been sold quite heavily OH yesterdays break, and with the ripple holiday approaching, shorts showed disposition to cover, which soon steadied the market and dur ing the middle and late sessions prices showed a generally firm undertone, creeping gradually upward. Around 12.Sl for July there was heavy selling by a house with German connections, and a slight setback but later room covering frmed the market up again with July selling at 12.S5 and October at 12.S0.
 The close was or points off from the best and steady at a net decline of 3 points to an advance of points Trad ing was not active, sales being estimated at only 100000 bales, and transactions seemed to represent evening up rather than the putting ou1 of fresh ventures. The approaching holidays probably ex- plained this lack of fresh interest and the less aggressive attitude of the mar ket leaders. Liverpool will be closed to- morrow and on Saturday. but will re- open On Monday.
 Receipts at the ports today were S23s bales. against 3734 last week. and 4945 last year. For the week 25,000, against 21,553 last week and 32,912 last year. To- days receipts at New Orleans were 79 against 2506 last year and at Houston 43S bales, against 190 last year.

New Orleans, May 26.-Spot cotton de- mand light; supply of desirable grades limited sales, 500 bales, including 450 to arrive; quotations reduced Mc.
 Futures opened quiet at decline of from to roints Liverpool and New York were disappointing, both being lower. Offerings were free soon after the opening and prices were driven down. The weather map again was unfavorable in the eyes of bulls and conservative trad CTS. No rain fell in those districts where rain Is badly needed in spite of the confi- dent predictions made yesterday. The bears were still selling winter months. however, and prices were weighed down by the selling. It Is said that exporters and sp'nners have been buying the winter months heavily of late1 and that any sharp upturn would find offerings in any position scarce. In the trading July lost g points at 12.S2 and recovered to 12.93. October lost points at 10,46 and recov- cred to 10.55. The market closed steady. May lost net 16 points, June IA, July and August gained l point, while the new crop months were unchanged to points up.

Beecher and the "Rooster."

That Henry Ward Beecher was
spared much embarrassment by his
quickness at repartee is illustrated by
the following story:
One evening, as he was in the midst
OF an impassioned speech, some one
attempted to interrupt. him by sud-
denly growing like rooster. It was
done to perfection; number of peo-
pie laughed in spite of themselves,
and the speakers friends felt that in
a moment the whole effect of the meet
ing, and of Mr.. Beecher's thrilling
appeals, might be lost. The orator,
however, was equal to the. occasion.
He stopped, listened till the growing
ceased, and then, with look of sur
prise, pulled out his watch.
"Morning already" he said: ''My
watch is only ten. But there can be
no mistake about it. The instincts
of the lower animals are infallible. !"
There was roar of laughter. The
flower animal" in the gallary col
lapsed, and Mr.. Beecher was able to
resume as if nothing had occurred
