The cotton market of yesterday fail
ed to bear out the promises of the
previous session. 1t was anticipated
by its friends that prices would either
advance or at least be maintained,
but they failed to do either. declining,
instead, to a loss of IL to IL points in
the New York market and to II to IA
points at New Orleans. The outside
buyers expected failed to materiahze
and the pit was unable to absorb the
offerings and maintain prices.
The local spot market opened firm
and unchanged from the close of the
day before, with sales of 51S bales
reported, and maintained prices to the
close though the tone at that time
was quiet instead of firm. The total
sales for the day were 6S1 bales

DIR. SCHERER IN AUGUSTA.
Address on the War Between Japan
and Russia.

The following report OF all address
by DR.. J. A. B. Scherer, delivered in
the Holy Trinity church, in Augusta.
appeared in a recent issue of the
Augusta Chronicle:
DR.. J. A. B. Scherer, who was in
the city yesterday, for the purpose Of
speaking at the Reformation Day cel-
ebration at St. Matthews church in
the evening, delivered an interesting
talk at Holy Trinity Lutheran church
yesterday at the morning service, in
which he discussed at length the war
that is now going on between Japan
and Russia.
DR.. Scherer spent several years in
Japan as a missionary, and is familiar
from experience with the people and
the customs of that country. He has
kept up with the present war closely
and is almost an authority On the SUBJ
iect. He explained to the congrega-
ton yesterday the causes leading up
to the conflict, and the effect it would
have in that section,. relative to the
spread of religion in future.
The speaker was of opinion that
after the war the Christian churches
would have an excellent opportunity
for gaining ground in Japan. The
people then would be better inform
ed, and more readily to embrace the
faith. He stated that the country
was now very largely heather.
The talk was interesting and was
enjoyed very much. DR.. Scherer has
lecture on Japan, which he has once
delivered in Augusta. A movement
was begun yesterday, looking to hav-
ing him return and again deliver it to
local audience 1t is pronounced
the best description of the Flowery
Kingdom heard before.

and laid it in the part Of the drawer
from which the other money had

found the boy still in the Office indus
