NO CRIT IN COTTON
"A Whisper of War Sets

Prices Tumble.
(By the Associated Press.)

stability around that level.
During the forenoon the market broke
badly following a turn for the worse IN
Ear Eastern war news, accompanied by
heavy liquidation Prices were soon driven
down to 325 Tor March, 1343 for May and
;249 for July. these being net losses
OF 80 to 40 points. Later the market
rallied about 10 to Is points from TIE
bottom on bull support, while
there was also some outside buying as d
result Of smaller receipts.
The steadier tendency was Of short
duration however. for shortly after mid
day more disquieting rumors were circll-
lated concerning the Far Eastern Situa-
ton and everything gave way to consid-
Grafton of possible war with all the
months selling down to new low levels
for the day. March touched 1888, MAY

points lower, placing prices to the lever

ward the close there was slight rally.
The market closed easy at q net de
cline of 20 to 76 points. The sales we~e
estimated at 100000 bales.

Raleigh, N c., Jan. 6.-The decline to-
day should surprise no one. The advance
of yesterday over thirteen and a halt
cents should have surprised people more,
rs the market is evidently on the down
tack. There was little in the situation to
call for 50 violent an advance as 11G

even when the market was advancing most
rapidly. Today May sold from 1888 to
1343. break Of 40 points and so points
from the high point of yesterday in less
than two hours trading this morning. Re
cepts not only keep up but are big We
can't have this sort of a movement for
many weeks without q serious decline in
prices. With crop of over 10000, 900
bales there is going to be a readjust-
ment of prices and market interests be-
fore cotton is safe purchase. AS we
said a week ago, the bloom is off the
rye. There is nothing in the situation to
make one change their mind on that
score. There has been a violent recov-
cry of cent in the nature of wind
fall from heaven. Those who failed to
get out OF long cotton over 1875 on the
other furry and also failed to get out on
this advance have no one to blame but
themselves. If war news develops more
seriously there will be trouble of a ser
ious kind.

STOCKS AND BONDS.

New York, Jam 6.-There was a rathct
violent fall in prices of stocks today under
the joint influence of a recrudescence of
the war scare and the poor quarterly re-
IaoTt of the earnings of the United States
Steel Corporation. The war scare was the
dominating influence late in the dav, not
only ia the stock market, but in all the
speculative markets. The grain markets
jumped and the cotton market broke. IN
accordance with the commonly accepted
view that an outbreak of war between
Russia ard Jagan would awaken an ac
tive demand for cereals to be exported
from our Pacific coast ports. whi.. the
interruption of the Chinese cotton trade
would effect that staple. Whatever in
cousistencies there may be IN this view
they were not of dissuaslve influence upon
the speculative activity Of professional
traders who held it. The Pacific railroads
were also conspicuously lacking IN any
benefit from the expected increase in the
Pacific export trade in grains and were
IN fact amongst the weakest stocks IN he
list, scoring lcsscs of between = ana .
points on the day. A few of tho CoalcrS,
Southern Railroads and spccialties came
with an equal range OF losses. but that
range rather exceeded the average of the

New York, Jan. 6.-The dry goods mark

numbers. but their orders are of a very
conservative character. The outlook for
conservative orders is generally consid-

outlook for increased buying is bright.
NEW YORK COTTON.
New York, Jan. 6.-The cotton market
opened easy under liquidation encouraged
ny disappointing Liverpool cables, and
curing the first half hour prices ruled
generally easy about 10 to % points net
lower all round. Then came a slight rally
OH talk of decreased movement and
smaller receipts for the day and the mar
ket recovered few points, but soon
turned easier again as news from the Far
East took less encouraging tone and
before midday the general list was about
80 to 49 points lower. Then there was an
other moderate rally extending to a matter
of 10 to Is points as early sellers bought
for profits, but again the upward tenden-
cy was checked by still more disquieting

was very heavy at this time, and prices
were rapidly driven back until with March
selling at 1885, May and July at 1906,
they were occupying practically the same
level as that noted before the advance of
yesterday and showed a net loss on those
positions of S1@S5 points. Toward the
close very bullish reports were received
from New Orleans concerning the atti-
tude of leading bulls there and also to
the effect that European interests were
bidding freely for spot cotton. This was
accompanied by buying orders from the
South and the market rallied slightly, but
closed easy net 7O@76 points lower. Sales
were estimated at 100000 bales. Port
receipts for the day were light and the
Southern spot markets hardly responded
to the declines in futures, but speculative
attention seemed centered on the Far
Eastern situation and other market infiu-
cnces were practically neglected Re

it can be- Another fact which indicates
that a higher class has been admitted is
that they brought with them more
wealth. This year the sI2 900 immigrants
brought with them over twenty millions
Of dollars in money, that is, money
shown to the inspectors. The per capita
possession was a large increase over the
average amount. These facts, together
with the general appearance and health
Of the newcomers which lead the inspec-
tor general to believe they are better
physically, are sure evidences that there
is turning in the tide Of immigration
toward the better class. The degree Of
aid which these people viii contribute
TO the upbuilding Of the United States
is hopeful sign. Gifted with a greater
intellectually, they will be the more
readily assimiIated BY the country which
they have adopted. And this country
is pleased to receive this class Of immi-
grants, but the dregs Of the old world
il is not pleased to receive.

One fact in connection with the annual
report Of Commissioner General Sargent
Of the immigration bureau is particu.
.larly gratifying to the people OF the
United States. It is that the grade Of
immigrants who came to this country
during the past year was considerably
in advance Of that Of many years back.
BY this we mean that the degree OF
moral, intellectual and also physical de-
yelopment was far better Particularly
Is the intellectual gain satisfactory, and
most gratifying. Commissioner sar-
gent says that the percentage of those
who cannot either read or write is much
smaller than usual, and the percentage
of those able to both read and write is
large. a smaller illiterate class Of i'm
