LAST OF A GREAT MAN

Senator George Frisbie HOar, ot Mas sachusetts, one of the greatest of Amer icsn statesmen, is slowly giving up his life at his home in the old Bay state, it indeed he has not already passed Co the great beyond. He has bid goodbye to all his friends, and with that courage and faith in the final triumph of the right which has characterized an active life, he awaits peacefully the tnal sum mons to depart hence,
 The loss of Senator Hoar will be a hard blow tO the United States senate of which he has been one of the ab.eSt members for nearly three decades. He always has been one Of those men who refuse to be bound by party dictation, a class which is even too small in num- bers. While a conscientious supporter of the republican party, with the life Of which he has been identified from al most its first days, he has never forgot ten to be a patriot rather than a parti- zap. and when he believed his party was being lead Co wOrshipa at the shrine of false gods, he has said so in words, the meaning of which could never be mistaken. Iu ability and in iudepend- epce of action. Senator HOar takes p0- sition along side of Edmuuds, Henry Winter Davis, David Davis, Randall tbe present Senator Morgan and halt dozen others of the great public men who have served to dull the severe edge of radical partizanship during the las, half century.
 The broad Americauism of Senator Hoar was never better illustrated than by the speech he made Co the MasSa- chuset,s legislature which had elected him Co the United States senate by an unanimous vote for the term he is now serving, it be be yet alive. In the course Of this speech, the venerable statesman said, in substance.
 sI am republican, a northern man and s Protestant, but l have such cOul- dence in the greatness of the American people, irrespective Ot p05jJica. convlc' tion, section of residence or religious belief, that ] veri,y believe that li every republican should die the demo crats Of the country would make tgls the greatest nation on the face ot the earth: if every northern man should die, the people of the south would keep their country in the first place among the states of the world; ii every protes- tant iu the land should die, the Ameri- can Catholics would remain the greht- est ard the freest people on the globe.
 With such optimism and such faith in his country, it is not strange that Senator Hoar is a patrio. and a states man rather than a parLizan and poll tician.

From the very opening of the session there was a good demand for futures, especially under 10 cents for January, but spots were neg lected the market being lower to sell with very little business doing. The lo- cal market for spots Is said to be as much as 14c down. and noon reports from other southern spot markets showed an easier feeling, with values reduced from 1-16 to 3-l6e down. Mail adviees from Washing ton construed the news that the news department would publish reports on the cotton ginned just as soon as each county would be heard from. In other words there are to be a number of bulletins is sued showing returns from so many counties, the reports of each day to in elude the quantities previously reported during the canvass, and when all of the agents shall have reported there will be published summary distributing by states the total quantity of cotton ginned to October IS, with which we will compare with last year.

cothran 6 Co.'S Market Letter.


 The markets were weak today. Prices did not break as they did when December ran from 0.25 to 10 last week, but the decline was none the less a fact Several lines of long cotton were hanging over the market and the fact that the cotton was bought on rise and nearly at the top of reaction led many to believe the stuff might be for sale at any moment
 While receipts were lighter the cotton sold for the south was a steady stream more than the buying power.
 Many were ready to buy cotton. on the break this morning, but prices did not open low enough to meet Liverpool, and this prevented the support otherwise that might have been a factor.
 The weather conditions were satisfac- tory, though rains predicted. Narrow trad ing left sentiment as uncertain as before this week. It would seem as though the purchase of cotton around or below loc would return profits for while.
 We may have some liquidation on a break below 1Oc, but it Is too early In the season to have a running decline.
 Spinners stand ready to buy quantities of cotton below 10c, and 1t will take some time to fill holes on both sides of the water
 Stocks-The stock market showed hesi- tation in early dealings under pressure of bearish floor contingent, but buying or ders in volume were soon met in a num- Der of specialties which were advanced sharply. including Brooklyn Rapid Tran sit, Pacific Mail and Steel preferred, showing that the bull movement Is not yet over and that the trend Is up for the time being. The advisability of pur- chasing as recommended on soft spots Is again demonstrated, and should be fol- lowed by daily operators; sales, 9S5700.

SHARP DECLINE IN

 came Very Weak.
MARKET THEN SAGGED OFF

New York October Manifestations of an easier spot situation in the south brought sharp decline in the market for cotton futures today. The opening was steady at a decline of 2Q5 points in response to lower Liverpool cables than expected, and continued good weather in the south, but there was a pretty good demand at first. and for the better part of the morning prices fluctuated around the initial level.
 Private advices received from the south were a little less reassuring, however, as spite of predictions as to colder weather in the northwestern part of the belt the market gradually sagged off, with lead ing room bears exerting a more constant pressure in an evident effort to uncover stop orders. Later New Orleans joined in the selling movement, and In the mid dle of the afternoon the market became quite weak. following the official ad- vices from the southern spot markets reporting a light business with prices 6Che.%sAtS AAChA 1-Ao lo o-1OC lOWtT. 10e close was easy at the lowest prices of the session, or a net decline of 15q1S points.

RAILROADS WERE
 LET UNTOUCHED Market for IndustriaIs Was Un-
 usually Active.
LOCAL FRACTIONS STRONG
Central of Georgia Incomes Make Sen rational Advances-Money Contln- ues Easy, With Prospect for
 Favorable Bank Statement.

New York, October 13.-There was a rather remarkable demonstration of spec ulatiye interest in industrial stocks and bpecialtles today, which was of doubtful effect on sentiment toward the market. The railroad stocks were allowed mean while to lie practically fallow.
 The market had an appearance of breadth and animation during the greater part of the day. but the falling off in the aggregate transactions shows that an active market for the industrials does not yield as large market results as the usual operations in the more important railroad stocks. This was made more marked by the fact that the more inn portant industrials were also late in com Ing into todays movement, showing more sympathy in the early part of the day with the dragging and hesitating tone of the railroads.
 United States Steel preferred was case in point, in spite of the favorable statistics of production for September, which made their appearance last even- ing, showing a notable increase in the productive capacity of pig iron during the month without however, effecting a de- clining tendency of stock on hand.
 This trade situation was an element in the continued strength today of the rail- road equipment stocks, which also en- loved the advantage of the more liberal earnings by railroads. It was only in a few cases that specific trade develop ments were advanced as a reason for the ll-p brq in, fha ind, trials. The argument for their rise was that the stocks of this class have not hitherto shared in the prolonged advance in railroad stocks, although the latter movement was avowedly based on im- proved general trade and industrial con- ditions which should increase the values of all securities.
 But such stirring up of long neglected securities of questionable value as that which took place today was the effect of a round suspicion of the health of the market, as showing exhaustion of possi- bilities of healthy securities for an ad- vance, and afforded resort to other re- sources to keep up the sequence of rota- tion. As indicating the breadth and va riety of the days market, a list of the lndustrials which moved upward a point Is given, the titles indicating sufficinetly the many branches of industry which were represented.
 The iron and steel stocks and railroad equipment stocks generally. the National Lead and the American Smelling stocks: sugar corn products, cotton oil, malt Ing, grass twine, Knickerbocker Ice, In- ternational Paper woolen, Virginia-Car olina Chemical, the rubber goods, and United States Rubber and others were traded in after long inactivity. but which aid not move widely. The local trac- fnra af ole .I.I
 are classed usually as specialties also. The dropping tendency of the raolroad list seemed to be due as much to the unset Element of sentiment by prominence given
