Shanghai Celestial Empire.
 Concucianism. like Buddhism, is dead in Japan, killed by the breath of the new learning, and one wonders what
 will, be it's fate during the next thirty years in China, now that 1t Is no long,
 CT boIstered up by the compulsory study of the classics.
 There are many who hold that the
 Japanese have no philosophical gifts, though that remains to be seen. At any rate, there was a time when the Confucian philosophy, in its dryese
 forms, was supreme among the scholars of Japan as of China. Buddhism, too.
 has had its heyday in Japan, though now disestablished and declining. It was in the sixth and seventh centuries of our era that Chinese civilization along with Buddhism, was introduce ed Into the island kingdom.
 The feudal system found in Con- | fucianism exactly what 1t wanted When that system was finally conson- dated by Tokugawa Ieyasu, who died | in 16l6, he looked around for some
 sanction for the order which he had es-
 tablished by force. This he found in | the Confucian classics, with their doc
 Urine of loyalty to rulers. These clas- sics up to that time had indeed been studied in Japan, but only by few In fact, they had never been printed Ieyasu had them printed with diacritl- cal marks for J8paneSC students. rEoH that time until the revotution Confu- cianism flourished. Temples to Confu- cius were erected in connection with
 the schools founded for the study Of his work.
 or course, 1t had It's defects. just the
 same as in China. Prominent among these were the hazy religious sanctions and ideas which 1t contained. There
 was no certainty, in so much that some have called Confucius an agnostic. Then there was no word of the supreme
 value of human life as such, and hence no adequate conception or the worth and nature of woman. These last two ideas are the roots of much of what is | best in our modern civilization. The l Japanese showed some originality in | that they laid the chief stress on loyal | tv and not on filial piety, as in China l The distinctively Japanese morality | was derived not from Buddhism but from Confucianism, and so 1t doubtless | served a purpose in the one unceasing
 purpose which runs through the ages. Now the philosophy of the West has | forever busted Confucius and his com mentators. There is only one temple to Confucius in all Japan, and that is used as an educational museum

MARKET FOR COTTON
PRICES REACH NEW HIGH LEVEL
 FOR MOVEMENT.
Close Steady at Net Advance of to IF Points, With the Bulls to All Appearances in Control
 nf A Malwn ..s-.r

New York. March 2s.--The cotton market was moderately active during today's session with the bulls in con- trol appafently and prices reaching new high levels for the movement The close was steady at a net advance of estimated at 30o.000 bales.
 The market opened firm at an ad- vance of to points in response to higher cables and reports of wet wealth little general demand, wire and com mission houses having few orders, but sellers on the break of yesterday were covering and the bull clique supported May, leading to revive rumors of a squeeze of shorts In that position which increased it's premium over July to a matter of nearly 10 points net higher at one time during the morning. Before the advance was checked May sold at 11.30 and July at 1i.22 or about 10 to 13 points net higher, while De- tober sold at 10.51 or g points higher. Realizing was quite heavy at the ad- vance and prices eased off in the mid dle session but rallied again around II 22 for day and HIS for July and in the early afternoon sold back to a level with the high point of the morn markets continued support of the bull leaders. The close was little of from the tor. with May quiet at 11.27 and July 11.SS. Southern spot markets were reported unchanged to quarter higher. and the large offerings reported yesterday had evidently been absorbed or withdrawn. The weather map showed more or less general precipitation, in some places heavy. Some wires were received from the Southwest claiming the moisture was necessary and beneficial. but where land has not yet been prepared the con- tinued wet weather is said to be caus- ing delay.
 Receipts at the ports today, 16,474 bales against 1S,393 last week and 35, 45i last year. For the week (esti- mated) 100000 bales against 109,772 last week and 202.713 last year. Today's receipts at New Orleans, s. 227 bales against 13.3S2 last year, and at Houston 4,514 bales against 16,419 last year.
