tate very long about throwing cotton

tate NeLS lon5 dpOul Throwing COttOl
over.
The stuff bought on Friday and Sat
urday below 16. soc. came out as soon
as prices worked back to these figures.
On the break below Is. 30c traders took
cotton and put the market up quick
ly; then the break in the stock market
helped the liquidation and prices work
ed back during the afternoon trading.
There was very little snap to the mar
ket, and more or less heaviness.
This was so marked abroad that
many sold out fearing a further set
back. AS long as receipts continue
light. it is impossible for the market
to change radically in our opinion. OF
course prices have had such an ad-
vance that a set back to 16 cents is
quite possible. This set back would
not change the outlook. but until the
reaction is seen to be over we would
go slow on the buying side for the
moment.

Yesterday was bears day" and cot

The slump which was general. IN
cluded Liverpool, New York and New
Orleans. Indeed it seemed to be bar
gain day" everywhere and prices went
down accordingly.
The English traders put the bulls to
rout. and the market closed 10 points
down in futures, and points in spots.
In New York the market broke 80
points. but rallied at the close. The
decline was occasicned by the eE-
IRENE weakness shown by Liverpool.
There was practically but little
doing either in the spot or f. o. b. mar
ket. Some (. 0. b. brokers sported
little business.
The official quotations were Is 3-16
at the opening, and 1919 at the close.
The interior, as rule was holding for
higher prices; and owing to the fact
that exporters and producers were
apart, it was very difficult for f. o. b.
brokers to do business.

TRUTH TRIUMPHS.
Barre Citizens Testify For the Public

A truthful statement Of Barre citizen,

the most skepticaI about the merits OF
D0an's Kidney Pills. II you suffer from
backaehe, nervousness, sleeplessness, urin-
airy disorders or any form of kidney ills,

Mrs. N. NJ. Nelson IN. nj. Nelson, sx-
superintendent of streetsl, residence

pleased with the results obtained from
the use Of Doan's Kidney Pills in the
winter OF 1897 that / gave for publica-
tion a statement, the gist of which
was as follows An attack of la
grippe. some eight years before, left
me in poor health. AS time went by

ond attack FRUSTRATED me and still
weakened my condition physically. /

used as much cold water. To accu-
rately describe my condition and tell
what I suffered is an utter impossible
ity. The slightest homework tired
me. If on my feet an hour or SO, sharp
pains across my back, extending down
wards, compelled me to stop and rest

day Mr.. Nelson brought home a box OF
Doans Kidney Pills from =. A.

me taking them If dose or two had
NOT brought decided results I would
never have continued the treatment

over rather a wide range, being first
put up by covering by shorts and
then put down by realizing by longs.
The weather map was not as good as

effect. The movement to ports fell
off heavily. estimated receipts being

as the direct result of the holding of

said to be due to a growing nervous

of planters in regard to the cotton
they hold. In the trading, December

WEAKNESS CAUSED
BY SIZE OF STOCKS.

New York, Oct. 6.-The cotton mar
ket opened steady at an advance Of
l 10 10 points in response to higher
English cables. Demand was also en-
couraged by reports of rain in some
sections of the belt, where it was said
TO be likely to damage open cotton.
Immediately following the call prices
worked off a little, but were soon
rallied again and worked up to a net
advance of about 8 to IA points on
covering and bull support with the
South sending buying orders through
wire houses. But the advance having
now extended TO a matter of some
thing over half a cent in the last
two days, it was considered that the
altered technical end of the market
justified a decline and some of the
larger room traders began to raid the
market. After getting it back to about
the closing figures of the previous night

overlooked and caused damage III
Texas brought about another rally to
about the high point, but in the later
trading there was active liquidation
and selling by New Orleans based on
reports of weakness in the interior

an accumulation of stocks, and the

cline of II to is points. Sales were
estimated at 100000 bales.

seventy-fifth annual conference of the
Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day

New York, oct. 6.-When prices
were half a cent up from the bottom
to-day there was pretty good selling
Of both kinds. After a gain of this
kind in two days safe traders began
to regard the market as hardly a
good investment. Shorts are being run
in rapidly. on such a rise as has taxi
en- place and when realizing begins
there are soft spots just as there has
been in the past. The cause of the
rise to-day was short covering. News
helped the rise. Receipts fell off some
and weather was not entirely favor
able. There was less cotton offered
from the interior yesterday, but the
rise to-day brought out more offer
ings. Holders who bought below 10
cents sold out and the general read
justment kept prices moving around
quickly. There is every inducement
to take profits on rise of a half cent
or over. Every time the market runs

MAY ACCOMPLISH SOMETHING.
American Passports May Be More
Pleasantly Treated.

st. Petersburg, Oct. 6.-Contrary to
general expectations, the representa-
tions submitted to Russia by the
United States for the recognition with
out discrimination of American pass
ports have not been entirely fruitless.
Foreign Minister Lamsdorffs response,
communicated to Ambassador McCor-
mick to-day, even creates the hope
that something may actually be ac-
complished.
After receiving consideration at the
Foreign Office the American note was
referred to the high commission for
general revision of the passport laws
of the empire, which was created by
imperial ukase on Dec. II, 1903. AS all
matters relating to passports and the
exclusion of Jews are governed by the
internal laws of the empire, the ques-
ton is outside the direct field of dip
lomatic negotiation.
By referring the representation of
the United States, compliance with
which would involve a modification of
the passport laws. to the commission,
which body is competent to act there
on. decision of the question may
therefore be reached
