New Orleans Cotton Letter.

New Orleans, May 3-(Special )-To- days cotton market was characterized ly any outside speculation. and as the professional element here was inclined to let the market rock alone. fluctua- lions were within a very narrow range. The close was quiet. with prices un- changed to two points down on the day.
 spots were ofhctally reported quiet and unchanged. Sales amounted to !50 bales of spots, and to arrive none. Mid ding was again quoted at II IA.
 Although prices on the staple have net, as yet. been materially affected, the situation in cotton has quickly un- dergone a decided change of late. At the time of the San Francisco disaster the bulls were in almost complete con- trol of the market. and bears were on the run. Since then. outside specula- tion, which was more active than 1t had been for some time. has died out, leaving big lines of long cotton in hands of prominent operators who have grown rich by the practice of unload ing on an unsuspecting public. This time, they seem to have been caught at their own game. The strong sup port that the market has been receiv ing lately in New York, was evidently necessary to protect the big bull in- terests in that market. Manipulation has been clearly in evidence there, and we have observed that whenever shorts bcame nervous and started to cover contracts were plentifully supplied from mysterious source which was
  cred. Anybody who has had exper- fence in the market knows that the natural inclinations of the bull leader i'll New oYrk are bearish. and hence the report today from New York, in- timating that he may. before long, take the short side for a turn. met with some favor in this market. The spot demand has died out at least for the time being, and aside from the strong statistical position, which has already been discounted to great extent. longs are relying on the reports of un- favorable weather conditions to save the situation. The fickleness of the weather is proverbial, and bulls do not slepp well at nights for fear that they will wake up and find a map showing good rains where most needed. There were rains today at Atlanta, Ga. Mont gcmery, Ala. and at Lancaster, s. c. Summing up the situation, bulls are now nthe defensive. Bearish senti- n,ent Is developing and the chances are that the need of support by the big long in New York will become more ur- gent from day to day.
 Yours truly,
 Loveman and Company.

Habit-forming Medicines.

Whatever nay be the fact as to many of the so-called patent medicines con taining injurious ingredients as broadly published in some journals of more or less influence, this publicity has certainly been of great benefit in arousing needed sttention to this subject, It has, in a considerable measure, resulted In the most intelligent people avoiding such foods and medicines as may be fairly sus- pected of containing the injurious ingre- dients complained of. Recognizing this fact some time ago, Dr. Pierce, of Buffalo, N. Y., ~tOok time by the forelock,r as 1t were. and published broadcast all the ingredients of which his popular medi- cines are composed: Thus he has com pletely foresta.led all harping critics and all opposition that might otherwise be urged against his medicines. because they are now OF KNOWN COMPOSITION. Fur thermore, from the formula printed on every bottle wrapper. it will be seen that these medicines contain no alcohol or other habit~forming drugs. Neither do they contain any narcotics or injurious agents, their ingredients being purely vegetable. extracted from the roots of medicinal plants found growing in the depths of our American forests and of well recognized curative virtues.
 Instead of alcohol, which even in small portions long continued. as in obstinate cases Of diseases, becomes highly objec- tionabie from Its tendency to produce a craving for stimulants, Dr. Pierce em- ploys chemically pure, triple refined glycerine, which of itself Is valuable remedy in many eases of chronic diseases, being a superior demulcent, zntiseptic, antiferment and supporting nutritive. It enhances the curative action of the Golden Seal root. Stone root, Black Cherrybark and Bloodroot, contained in sGolden Medical Discovery" in all bron- ehiai, throat and lung affections attended with severe coughs As will be seen from the writings of the eminent Drs. Grover Coe, Of New York; Bartholow, of yefier- son Medical College. Phiia-; Scudder, of Cincinnati; Ellingwood. of Chicago; Hale. of Chicago. and others, who stand as leaders in their several schools of practice, the foregoing agents are hhs peTy best ingredients that Dr. Pierce could have chosen to make up his fa- nous Discovery for the cure of not only bronchial. throat and lung affec.
