The New orleans cotton Market.

New Orleans, February 4.-The spot
cotton market was dull. Buyers and SELL
ers apart. Influenced by Liverpool and
New York prices here were reduced &c,
causing most of the factors to cover up
their sample tables. Sales, 400 bales. Fu-
lures opened weak and irregular. Soon
after the opening prices were from IS to
100 points lower than the close of yes
terday. The selling pressure was tremen-
dous and for a short time 1t looked as il
prices must go still lower. From the OPEN
ing the bull leaders were heavy buyers
and gradually offerings were absorbed.
Smaller longs took heart and commenced
to buy as did room traders also. This
had the effect of bringing about a strong
recovery. and also checked the short SELL
ing by exultant bears. In the trading of
the morning March showed decline Of
10 points at 1850. and then recovered u
points to 1872; May lost IS points at 1925
and recovered IS points at ILL., At noon
the market was quiet and the Indications
were that the excitement for the day was
over, but during the afternoon the rumor
that war had been declared caused an
other drop OF 100 points. The bulls again
became heavy purchasers. but the mar
ket closed weak. the net losses on Febru-
ruary being 1920 points, March 49, April

and excitement on the call surpassed all
previous records. 1t took three men to
engineer the call. usually conducted by

tinued, and while the market ruled fairly
steady at the openig level, there was little
tendency toward recovery. There was con-

ing interests who it was said was at
tempting to shake out the speculative
long interests who have recently entered
the market, and with cotton sensationally
weak, people who were long of both mar
kets found themselves In position where
liquidation became necessity. Shortly
after midday the market steadied up
about 20 points but in the later trading
weakened again on rumors that war had
been declared in the far east. and be-
came absolutely demorallzed with cotton
exchange interests heavy sellers. The

~ ~ " =. iNS'
New York, February 4.-There was a
very wild time at the opening today
when May ran down to 1859. 1t was
quite impossible to trade at times, but
after the first hour the market steadied
somewhat. Then there was a recovery
and May and July recovered above 1sc.
New Orleans broke a cent; Liverpool
broke about the same and for a time
things looked very black. This was to
be expected after what has happened
What is a break of cents on advance
OF cents. This does not indicate there
are no more bulls left in cotton. The
end will depend on the size of the crop
Unless receipts are very, very much
smaller than they are now, unless the
war cloud blows over and Mr.. Sully re-
turns to the bull side, we can guess the
high prices have been seen. There Is
nothing in the situation to warrant buy
ing at the moment, and we would only
buy on big breaks for quick turn, 1t is
not market to risk very much money
on. II the crop proves larger than Is
talked of now, we will sell much lower
There may be a better market for time
but the burden of the fight now falls on
New Orleans. We want to see what be-
comes of the March deliveries there.

New York, February 4.-The slump in
cotton has made no difference in the cot
ton goods market, except that buyers
show more conservative attitude, but
manufacturers show no inclination to
weaken from their position, and are not
inclined to believe that the slump is any
thing but temporary. Even at the new
prices touched II is not believed there can
be any concessions from the prices made,

TO RESCUE HIM FROM DEATH
Policemen and Hospital Surgeons
Work With "Jimmies" to Release
Man From Cellar.

New York, Dec. 2-with '.jimmies" he
had left behind, policemen and hospital
surgeons have worked for hours to re-
lease a burglar from a subcellar in the
rear of Nos. and West Fourteenth
street, where he had fallen or jumped
after an exciting chase. The man gave
his name as Adolph Newman. q years
old. Internal injuries and a fractured
leg sustained in dropping twenty-five feet
probably will cause his death.
Thousands OF persons gathered In Fifth
avenue while the rescue was being made
and while ropes were let down into the
shaft to hoist Newman his groans could
be plainly heard in the avenue. So great
was the fellows pain that he repeatedly
begged the policemen to end his sufferings
Newman had succeeded In entering a
fur store on Fourteenth street, just off
Fifth avenue. and Is said to have wrapped
man on the floor above heard him. Chai-
lenged by the watchman- the interloper
called back that he was one Of the work.

stairs, and the man rushed to the rear
Of the building, in the center Of which
there Is a narrow airshaft. with a sky
light between the second and third floors
and another glass and wire covering on
the first floor above a subcellar.
When Newman reached the end of the
room there was a sound Of breaking glass
and a crash below. followed by second
noise near the foot OF the shaft Police
men were summoned. and with lanterns
they searched long time for the burglar
Lights were lowered into the shaft, and
he was finally located at the bottom Of
q subcellar. into which he had fallen after
crawling from the airshaft. It was a
long job to get the man up to the next
window. twenty-five feet above, after a
policeman had been lowered by a rope.
On being lifted out of the shaft, New
man shr1eked with pain. and his cries
could Be heard In the street. and added

IRELAND'S POTATO
CROP A FAILURE.
Over 100000 Persons, 1t Is Said,
Will Be in Distress With
in a Month.

SPECIAL BY CABLE TO THE ST LOUIS RE-
PUBLIC AND THE NEW YORK HERALD.
London. Dec. 3.-More than 10000 per-
sons Will be in distress in Ireland within
Q month. according to letter received to-
night from William O'Brien. NJ. P. for
Cork, who says:
1T Il certain that two-thirds Of the po-
tato crop in the West OF Ireland is ruined.
1t Is certain, also that. owing to the bad
trade conditions, the majority Of laborers
are going to England from West ireland.
They have failed to earn half their usual
wages.
After January probably 10000 small
land holders will be in a condition of
deep distress. This is wholly due to the
unnatural system under which the people
are cooped UP on patches OF exhausted
soil. while abundantl5 rich pasture land
Is running to wtldness around them.
Last years purchase act recognized
holdings for people. but tbs collapse of
the peoples organization, the landlords
greedy demands and the failure Of con-
gested district boards to use their legal
powers on any considerable scale have
rendered the act completely nugatory.
THE generosity of the noble American
nation will be sorely needed. but our
American sympathizers will serve all the
more effectively Il their relief l. accorded
ment Of the law for providing people with
uvable holdings out Of grazing ranches.
