apparently weather conditions have heen
somewhat more favorable during the past
week, lair weather in the southwest,
wen distributed rains in the central and
eastern portion of the belt, and the
temperature has been more seasonable,
snshtly lower in all districts. In the
mean Time speculation has dwindled to
praencally nothing. outsiders having
wlthdrawn support from the market in
the absence of a spot demand at Liver
pool. As result of such DEVELOPMENTS
values are slightly lower than this dav
one week ago for future contracts. but
spots locally are a shade higher. Offering
being very light, even from the interior
where higher prices relatively are oh
tanned. Knowing southern farmers to be
we'll organized this year, spinners of the
world have united into an International
body for the purpose of confronting any
effort on the part of the south to hold
values at their present level To that
end meeting of international splnners
was held at London August l, whereat
consumers were advised to buy no more
cotton for ninety days except in such
cases where the raw material was abso-
lutely necessary. In the giving of this
advice, it is clearly indicated that cotton
producers are to be bitterly fought by the
spinners during the next three months
and that every effort is to be made to de-
press the market by reducing the demand
for the raw material. BY taking spar
ingly of saleable cotton, splnners may try
to make 1t appear that the demand has
been curtailed, but their heavy drafts
upon visible and invisible resources tell
different story, the world having taken
the past week about 100000 bales more
than last year, about $4,000 compared
with about $1,000, making total tal5ings
to date figure about u, $4,000 bales, against
about 10 100000 for the whole of last sea-
son, and we have about three weeks more
to run. which will probably bring the
seasons takings up to 12,5OO000.

second to that of the banner year of
1901. In that year 1t will be remembered
there was a serious shortage in the corn
crop, while the estimated yield Of corn
for this year under August l conditions
is far in excess of the largest previous
yield in the country's history. The haz-
ards yet to come are greater for corn
than for wheat, but the favorable weather
conditions reported from the corn go to
strengthen the opinion In favor of a rec
ord corn yield. The outlook for cotton
is more confused and fears persist of pos
sible shortage in that crop. Reports OF
a bad outlook for some of the foreign
wheat crops are factors that increase the
promise of a favorable position for this
country in the market of its great crops
and materially increase the feeling Of
hopefulness for the prosperity to come.
Sentiment over the iron and steel out
look has been shaped by the statistical
showing of an increase during July OF
the stock of pig iron in spite of further
curtailment of output. The product Of
the capacity of the furnaces In opera
ton on August had been increased, new
ertheless, over that of July l, and this
was accepted as evidence of confidence
of the iron makers in the maintenance OF
the demand. Very large orders are report
ed in the meantime for all lines of fin
ished products, and the United States
pared to come into the market for iron
again next month. Copper continues to
advance in price. and to be In active de-
mand for export. 4.s
News from THE peace conference at
Portsmouth has not affected stocks posi-
lively, but some part of the restraint on
speculation is undoubtedly duo to the
desire to await the decision of the great
question there being worked out. The
great Accommodations of reserves in the
European banks Is manifestly In prepare
ton for the capital requirements which
may be involved in carrying out the
measures to be stipulated between the
two governments in conference, or prob
ably in part as a precaution against the
possible failure of the negotiation.
Bonds have been well absorbed during
the week, but the movement of prices
has been moderate.

NO TRUTH IN 1T.
The Report Was A Mistake About
Prof Rowe.

Their was a report 10 Jasper "A short
time ago to the etfec! that Prof Rowe,
who ~ now superintendent of the
Granby schools. had whipped boy so
severely that he dipSl. The reports
further said that Mr. Rowe was arrested
and a great deal of eNciiemeut prevailed
over the matter.
Prof Rive writes the News that "there
is Absolutely nothing lD the reports"
Mr. R0we further says; II have never
been aI7ested, never have even been
Threatened. There w1s lot Of talk, but
the boy and his several people just sim.
ply misrepresenied facts. The people
here declare that the city has never
seen a rsore prosperous school"
Mr.. Rowe says that Misses Ruth
Bowman aud Goldia Palmer, who are
graduates OF the jasper High School,
have dOOe fine woH,S As teachers in the
CRANKY schools the past term.
The. Professor 10, closeing says; "&rs
Rowe and / expees to visit 10 Jasper 10
the n'ar future. Don't forget thas We
are p5Uud Of that school building, just
as yoH are. "
