 First Expected WEATHER NOT so BULLISH
Trading in Cotton Was Very Quiet. Prices. After Declining to Points, Showed Little Tend
 ency Either Way.

New York, April 9-The cotton market opened easy at a decline of points to an advance of points and ruled gener- ally easy during the early trading un- der scattering liquidation and some sell Ing for short account following lower cables than expected and disappointing visible supply decrease.

A Practical Joke.
Providence Journal.

From the Providence Journal.
 w. w. Jacobs. the writer of humorous stories about sailors, described. in a recent letter to a friend in New York a practical joke that had been played by his neighbor. Jerome K. Jerome.
 Mr. Jacobs said that Jerome once wanted file. He entered a hardware shop and nodded politely to the youth be- hind the counter.
 Have you got" he said, ''the last edi- ton of Tennysons poems?'
 "No, sir, said the clerk. This is a hardware shop"
 "Hey?"
 "Oh, said Mir Jerome, "Idon't care about the binding. Cloth will do as >-ell as anything else"
 But we don't sell books here" the clerk shouted. This is a hardware shop" "Oh, wrap it up in anything"
 The clerk, with an oath, came all the way round the counter and put his lips to MT. Jerome's ear.
 Hardware shop. No books. Hard ware" he shrieked.
 Thank you. I'll wait" said the other. This was too much for the clerk He disappeared in an inner room, and in a moment returned with the proprietor The proprietor approached Mir. Jerome sternly.
 Well what do you want, anyway" he said
 "A small file" was the quiet answer.

 "One day in Wheaton" Judge Gray said recently, "I took dinner with a clergyman and his family. The clergyman had an S-year-old son called Joe, and Joe was a very bright boy.
 Look here, Joe,' I said during the course of the dinner T have a question to ask you about your father
 Joe looked gravely at me.
 All right. I'll answer your question, he said.
 We'll said l. T want to know if your father doesn't preach the same sermon twice sometimes.'
 Yes, I think he does, said Joe, but the second time he always holers in diff ferent places from what he did the first time."

cothran 6 Co.'s Cotton Letter.

By c. w. Lee & Go.
 New York, April 9-There is now no doubt that we have run into one of those deadlocks out of which no one knows when we will emerge. While the posi- ton is a trying one for the time being, 1t has this advantage, when the market starts up after a while you may be sure there will be more than a few points in 1t. The same Is true of the other side.
 If the market starts to break, lookout Ii looks very much as the market did last year and the year of 1900.
 The shortage carried strength and prices marked higher before new cotton came in.
 The present market looks as there was some bear manipulation The market can be marked for a certain length of time only. We would call attention to the serious shortage in the worlds supply of cotton--350000 bales less than last year and S00,000 bales less than two years ago
 We also call attention to the new crop. The flood situation in the Mississippi val- ley is likely to be feature next week.
