THE COTTON MARKETS.

NEW YORK. March 26.-The cotton mar
ket opened steady at a decline OF four
points. to an advance of two points which
was better than due the ables and soon
sold up TO a new high level for the bull
movement, with May touching II % and
July ll.5,, or four TO six points net higher.
Ihere was an active demand early for COW
ering and considerable bull support but the
advance attracted heavy realizing and
prices sagged off TO about the closing fig
ures of Saturday during the middle of the
morning The weather south continued
rather unsettled. but temperatures are
higher and the estimate for tomorrOw's re-
ceipts at Houston was heavy.
Futures opened steady March. 1895;
May ILL; June. Ills: July. I.lS; August.
HOB; September. 1868: October 10. 40;

The market was Jess active but very ir-
regular during the late forenoon Prices
points following the first sharp advance
but later rallied again to the inal quota
lions of Saturday. There seemed to be no
aggressive bull support but offerings were
pretty well absorbed and there was more
buying of a general character.

Reading Strong and Active.

Reading was one of the strongest and
most active features of the railway list. and
the bituminous stocks. while dull, were
also firm. There were many other striking
movements in this quarter OF the market,
substantial gains being scored by New York
Central. Chicago and Northwestern. st.
Paul. Missouri Pacific, Union Pacific, Great
Northern preferred and Northern Pacific.
In the industrial and miscellaneous shares,
the leading features were Amalgamated
Copper. Anaconda, American Smelling. Ma
tiOnal Lead and Consolidated Gas. The
pronounced animation in Amalgamated
Copper was attended by statements that
at their next meeting. which will probably
be held this week. the directors of the Ana
Condd Mining Company would advance the
dividend rate on that stock, and it was
assumed that this action would foreshadow
a similar proceeding at the next dividend
declaration period on Amalgamated Copper
There was naturally no special news ac-
companying the rise in Consolidated Gas
but the stock benefited from concentrated
purchases conducted in larger amounts
than have been witnessed in the dealings
In that security FOR several weeks past The
United States Steel shares were compare
lively active and were steady
Ice and Distillers' Securities.
Among the minor industrials there were
extensive advances In Ice securities and
Disullers' securities, the latter rising on

account contributed very little to the re-
suits of the days market. the arbitrage

In the early dealings a rather uncertain
tone prevailed. there being apparen: some

What Go you think o. this?' he
went on. This is state college, sup
ported by general public taxation;
also there are as good printers in
South Carolina as there are anywhere.
Yet this catalogue, con-
tract that any Palmetto print
ing house would have been
clad to have, bears the i'm
print of a, firm in Charlotte, n. c. My
idea about it is that this work ought
to go to the South Carolina printer
who put in the lowest bid. I don't
think the college funds would suffer
anv undue depletion by confning the
bids to home shops s.''-Columbia Rec

Cotton in Bad Condition.

A dispatch from Raleigh says: The
rains throughout the North Carolina
cotton belt continue, and IN the east
. vast area of low land is under wa
se.. Tar river is higher than in seve-
raj years. Agents Of the agricultu-
Fal department, who have been III six
northeastern counties, say that only
occasionally is fair crop of cotton
TO oe seen. Most of it is drowned by
rain or choked by weeds, and on
many farms it is actually difficult to
nee the cotton Not in many years
have conditions been so bad in the
east. A large farmer there writes
thas in the past montn mis- cotton has
ncs known work. The water has stood
among the stalks all the time.
In the higher sections and on sandy
land there is much shedding and
there is a lot Of this ON stiff lands.
Cotton growers say that the cotton on
she most favcrably conditioned land
rs particularly deceptive. There is
plenty Of stalk, but scarcity of bo1ls.
There is much interval between the
balls. There is a general desire to
know. the status of the crop There
Rre persons who express the belief
fshat the next government crop re-
port will show still further deteriof-
alton in North Carolina. The State
Cotton Growers Association calls for
reports to be made at its township
meetings today NOT only Of the pres
ens condition Of the crop, but of the
quantity of old cotton held from last
Nseason. This information is for use
as the meeting of presidents of State
associations at Hot Spring early in
September. The remark is made by
sssome observant farmers that they do
not belive there is perfect crop of
cotton in this State.

The Sumter Item says that the Dor
chester "lynching" was mot lynch.
ing'' but plain case of mob murder. -
The recent Greenwood killing was gen
orally admitted to be q genuine
"lynching.'' There we're about 10
men in the "mob'' that committed
the Dorchester crime. There were
several hundred in the crowd that put
the Greenwood negro to death. Is it
this difference in the size of the mob
that constitutes the difference in the
manner in which the two acts are
characterized. 1t is true that there
we're other circumstances that distin-
guished the two cases, but it cannot
be denied that upon the size OF the
crowd depends in large measure the
question as to whether the act COM
mitted is murder or "lynching."
Where then, is the line of demarka-
tions When is a "mob" small enough
to commit murder" and when is it
large enough to commit "lynching?"
And what is the essential difference
between the acts committed?--The
State.
