j. ii. PARKER a co.'s
Cotton Letter to Hayward, Wick q
Company.


New York, May 2.-Liverpool was
decidedly disappointed this morning,
especially in the spot department,
where the decline amounted to IA
points with 5000 bales sales. 1t is
evident that the better crop accounts
now beginning to come in with the
prospect of continued favorable wealth
er for some days, prevents any awak-
ening of bullish sentiment, while the
japanese successes on land are con-
sidered in some quarters as certain
to prolong hostilities, thus further
hampering the worlds trade. We are
ra, er inclined, however to take the
view that the present is a weather
market, and as such more likely to
decline than to advance so long as
favorable weather conditions are not
counteracted by revival of spot de-
mand.
The Manchester weekly report was
rather encouraging this morning, and
short time seems on the decrease. An
other feature which will probably come
into more prominence later unless crop
conditions should continue ideal. The
mean weakness to-day was in July
which closed at a net decline of %
points. The far months were much
steadier and lost only IL to IA owing
to the belief held by some that to-
| morroW's weekly weather report will!
show an unsatisfactory state of affairs.
The report, however will refer real
ly to past conditions which as we all
know can be quickly changed by a
short spell of warm, growing weather

SHOT FOR HIS RUDENEss.
Negro Was Visited by Unknown Men
Near Prattsburg.

Talbotton, Ca. May 2.-Andrew
Russaw, colored, stopped Friday at the
home of Mason Shumate, who lives
near Prattsburg. and, 1t is reported
asked Mrs. Shumate for a match. She
gave several matches to him and went
back to her work, when she was again
interrupted by the negro who asked
her where her husband was. She look
ed up from her work and saw the ne
gro in the room. Mrs. Shumate re
quested him to get out of the house.
He replied in a very abrupt manner
that he would get out when he got
ready. Mrs. Shumate became frighten-
ed and fled from her home and went
to her husband. who was in the field,
and when they returned the negro saw
them and ran off.
Unknown men went to Russaw' 5
house Saturday night about 10 o'clock
and took him out of his house, but in
some way he got away from the men
and ran, but was shot in the back by
some one unknown. and it is thought
that he will die. The ball entered his
back and lodged in his lung.
The negro lives near Prattsburg on
Brinkley Parker's farm.

Liverpool was weighed in the balance

The cotton futures market opened

A dull and featureless atmosphere
pervaded the American rings, and

futures both showed material declines
in both New York and New Orleans,
the former market shooting down
from 10 TO % points, and the latter 20

Think Depressed Cables Responsible
for the Drop.

Savannah, Ca. May 1--WE have had
a rather dull. featureless cotton mar
ket since the opening. in sympathy
with the depressed cables. New York
opened down and was little disposed
to rally during the day. and closed
around the lowest prices. The crop
news, while varied was rather favorable
to the bear side of question and at
present the bulls, both here and in
New Orleans, seem disposed to wait
until spinners shall absorb more of
stocks of spots before they attempt
any summer campaign.
While 1t is expected that the weeks
exports will more than exceed the re-
ceipts, but with the sentiment prevail
ing bearish as II is at present, the
usually favorable influencing factors
are of no avail. Port receipts tomorrow
probably 5000, against $4,000 last year.
Spots in South, nc lower, while New
York 20 points lower. While we be-
lieve in ultimately higher prices. we
can see nothing at present to justify
an expectation of successful bullish
campaign Immediately.

Think Market Too DimcuIt TO Ex-
press Opinion on.

press Opinion on.
New York, May 2.-This is the hard
est market to express an opinion on
we have ever seen. Who wants to be
short when there is a famine in pros
pect and any bad weather will turn
the market up like a shot, yet again
there is no use in buying a market
that is slowly sagging to a lower
level.
AS far as the new crop months go.
we would look to October under lie,
and there ought to be some sort of OPP
portunity to make money. With a
good May and early June. October
might readily sell at 10.50c before halt,
but there is nothing to play the short
side on, and a lot to be said against
being caught short.
We would let the market work off
on good weather for several days and
then risk the long side, taking profits
on any sharp advance. There are times
when short selling is the way to make
money, but this decline is too slow and
too uncertain for that sort of thing
just now.

New York, May 2.-While there is
little inclination on the part of SELL
ers of dry goods to make price induce
ments to force business, buying was
of small proportions. There are indi-
cations, however. that preparations
are being made for future buying and
the outlook is not regarded as unfav-
oreble as a short time ago. Little
development in the price situation has
taken place. although irregularities in
certain lines are still reported.

The boosters Of the opposition ticket
are still attempting to create dissatisfsc-
tion in the republican ranks by Claiming
that some Of the republican Candidates
arc trading Oh their fellow candidates.
Soma Of the non who talk this NO doubt
believe it but they are badly mistaken
nevertheless. The republican candi-
dates are oil dealing fairly and honestly
with the,r fellow candidates. They are
not doing any trading, they will not do
any trading sad they want it distinctly
understood thse they do not endorse any
such unfsi Jsmpaign methods no mat
ter Ia whose interests or by wh % prac-
tiesd.
