Foundation OF the great wealth of
j. p. Morgan was laid by the great fire
which swept New York city in 1885. AZ
that time Mr.. Morgan's father was
a youth OF Is years and a dry goods
clerk In Hartford, and his grandfather
was a modest innkeeper. He was the
proprietor OF the City hotel in Hart
ford, When the flames swept New
York in 1885 the Aetna Fire Insurance
company Of Hartford was known to be
a heavy loser. II had then become
80 great financial Institution that it
could face such loss with out mlsgiv-
ings, Many stockholders became
alarmed and began to offer their shares
at a great sacrifice, Some almost were
ready to give them away, I'm the fear
that they would be heavily assessed to
meet the loss Incurred IN New York.
As was usual, such topics were dis
cussed in the hotel corridors, and MIR
Morgan was offered much stock nearly
as a gift. John Warburton who was

Market Letter.

New York, March 1.-THE market con
tinued its upward course today, gathering
strength with each hour OF the session.
Conspicuous gains were made throughout
the list with hardly any exception. The
particular strength of the United States
Steel issues is accounted for by the re-
port that the Pennsylvania Railroad is in
the market for $4,000 tons. The recent
improved outlook in steel and iron has de-
cided many roads to place their orders at
once as instead OF concessions in prices
which had been expected by them, they
now race the possibility of increasing
prices. The reactionary movements in
grains which set in yesterday on reports
OF extensive and much needed rains in the
Southwest was continued today and
wheat declined cents per bushel with
coarse grains also weak and lower.
Weather conditions are now the important
factor, as the low conditions of wheat in
many sections has given cause for grave
anxiety as to the new crops 1t is still
too early for predictions but the situation
favors purchase on weak points Mega
lively favorable cables from Liverpool
caused an opening best of the day, and
under somewhat severe pressure the mar
ket declined over So per bale from the
opening price. While the decline is per
ing demand for spots in all markets. the
tact remains that the country is nearly
bare Of cotton, and at reasonable con
cessions purchases should be made.

longs were heavy buyers, which caused
n fairly wide reaction.
No good reason except manipulation can
be advanced for the break. No one claim
ed last night that the market was heavy
with weak longs and no one believed that
1T was this morning after the decline
had spent itself. Some one was evidently
pulling the strings and sending prices
up or down as was desired.
In the trading fluctuations were wide
and frequent. May first gained six points
at 1852. declined TO 1901, recovered to
1923, fell again to 1906 and recovered
TO 1911. July first gained six points ut

Raleigh, n. c., March 1.-THE run
ming break of yesterday was repeated
today only more so. Instead of n break
Of so points there was a break OF over
60 points in some options. and over 10
points in others. There was support at
15Ac., but not above 15lac. on the break.
1t looked as though the load had become
too heavy for the market and holders
were willing to let the price down to ac-
commodatc the people concerned The
amount of cotton pointed towards New
York is over 100. 600 bales in addition to
the 100 900 bales we have here now This
would make a pretty big stock and those
interested in the market have evidently
concluded the situat ION would Ibe i'm
proved by q break. Liverpool is weak,
much weaker than it should be on their
position. But as long as they are not
agtated over the situation, it is foolish
to bother on this side. The realization
Of this brought about the break today.
1t may be that prices will be lower before
they are much higher, but at 15Ac. or
15Mc the situation has two sides. While
the market still calls for caution there
is not likely to be a severe break from
this point unless something unforeseen
HAPPENS. The present difference between
New York and Liverpool is better than
for some time and in many ways the
outlook is more encouraging. There Is
more demand from spinners here and can
be looked for about 141ac. or even at 15c
