Holding Movement Still Firm.

Notwithstanding the recent heavy
and unauthorized depression in the
price Of spot cotton. due to bearish
speculative influences, the great ma
:jori1y Of spot holders have stood firm
and refused to be panic stricken over
the extreme tactics pursued by the
large cotton buyers and exporters
to shake out cotton from the interior
of the old States. We are now fac
ing comparisons with enormous re-
ceipts one year ago Last month
there came into sight 100000 bales
and in April $4,000 bales, or during
those two months as much cotton as
there is in the South to come into
sight for the balance of the season.
More cotton came into sight last
March than there is now left in the
hands Of the spot holders on planta-
tons and at interior uncounted towns.
The spot holders will continue firm
and remain unshaken while the eX-
poirters who are short in their con-
tracts are being forced to the ports
to beg, borrow or buy supplies for
immediate requirements. The worst
of the depression is already over.
The combination of spinners, specula-
tors and buyers have played their
last cards, and the holders, by remain
ing steadfast in the possession Of their
staple. will soon be able to dictate
prices and force the market to fif-
teen cents. Cotton goods are weekly
advancing in price, and the demand
cannot be filled, many mills having
already taken orders as far ahead
as December and into next year.
Mill sales are based on the future
price of spot cotton as :spinners rea--
lize prices will advance in the near
future. Remember that, last March
with cotton at 7 cents, in the face Of
a: 100000 bale crop, those who
held received 10 l-2 cents early in
July. Do not get discouraged. Mill
men say raw cotton IS worth fifteen
cents and that they are prepared to
pay it if they cannot get it for less.
If the staple is worth it; every inter-
est in the South should assist the
holders to get it. Let there be no
break in the ranks. The supplies
from the interior Of the Southwest
are practically exhausted, and all
buyers must soon turn their atten-
ton to the holding in the old States.
Do not get panic stricken, but have
only one price in view for the balance
of this crop; namely, FIFTEEN
CENTS. Plant less cotton and m
crease the food supply crops. Cur
tail production Of cotton, so that
what is grown will be absolutely re-
quired by the consuming world and
will, therefore, command profitable
prices. The slogan for the next: two
months throughout the entire cotton
belt must be diversification, less cot
ton, more food supplies, and an absol-
ute refusal on the part Of spot holders
to market their middling cotton for
less than Is cents. Show the world
a normal acreage and a fixed deter
mination to demand fifteen cents for
the balance Of this crop.

NEGRO HOMICIDE.
Jess Coleman Killed By Fred Reeder
In Upper Part of the County
Sunday Night.

! Jess Coleman. colored, was killed
/ by Fred Reeder. also colored, on Mr.
| NJ u. Satterwhite s place. in the up
; per part Of the county, on Sunday
night about 9 clock. Reeder came
to Newberry yesterday morning and
surrendered to the sheriff. He is now
in the county Jail.
! Coroner Lindsay left early yester-
day morning to hold the inquest. Up
until late yesterday afternoon he had
not returned to the city and it is:
therefore, impossible to give the facts
as brought out at the inquest.
! From what can be learned it ap-
pears that Reeder had gone to the
house occupied by two Of Coleman S
sisters, Sallie Coleman and Rose Cole
man. In the house in addition to
Reeder and the two women were Wigg
Satterwhite and John Pitts. both col
ored.
Coleman came to the house. and it
is stated the dispute arose over dol
lar which Coleman had lost and ac-
cused Reeder of taking. Reeder says
that he shot at Coleman four times.
The weapon used was pistol.
When seen at the county Jail yes
terday, Reeder said that while he and
the two women and Satterwhite and
Pitts were in the house Coleman
walked in, cursing, saying that he had
lost a dollar and accusing Reeder Of
having it in his possession. This,
Reeder says, he denied. Reeder says
that Coleman continued his aceusa-
tions and that he continued his denial,
and that finally Coleman picked up
an iron fire poker and struck him
with it. That he then drew his pis-
tol, and when Coleman was advancing
on him again he shot once. That Cole
man then struck him again, and was
advancing on him again when he fired
three more times.
Reeder liver On Mr. H. H. Abram s
place. AS soon as Sheriff Buford
learned Of the difficulty on Sunday
night about 10 O'Clock he telephoned
Mr.. Abrams and Mr.. Abrams told
him the negro would surrender. Sher-
iff Buford had prepared to go to the
scene, but upon this information he
decided to wait until yesterday morn
ing: Early yesterday morning he
again 'phoned Mr.. Abrams, and Mr..
Abrams told him the negro was then
on his way to Newberry. Shortly af
ter Reeder came in and surrendered
to the sheriff.
Mr.. Abrams telephoned Cole l..
Blease, Esq, to look after the inter-
ests Of the negro and to take the nee
essary steps for securing bond, stat
ing that he would furnish the bond.
Mr.. Blease has taken the case, and
will defend the negro.

OMAHA, April TO- 19O6.--To the Editor of
The Bee: Recently there appeared some
thing in your columns as to change OF
name for Sixteenth street, which It was
proposed to call Broadway. Why not call
this thoroughfare Nebraska avenue? There
is a name that is fitting in every sense,
one that would mean something, and would
commend itself 10 all the people OF the
state.
Then, to make Nebraska avenue a sub
Jet of talk all over the country, let the
merchants treat its lighting as Los AM
geles merchants do their Broadway and
St Paul merchants are to treat their Sixth
street In the California city eleven blocks
Of Broadway are made like fairy land by
means of over 1900 lights, aggregating
$1,000 candle power. Los Angeles claims
it is the most brilliantly lighted street in
the world
In the Minnesota city committees are'now
working among the business men of Sixth
street for a similar illumination. This
thorOughfare bears the same relation to
the other business streets OF st. Paul that
sixteenth street does to the. other Omaha
business streets exactly. The proposal is
to install the "fairyland" system at "A
minimum cost OF S1.S5 for installation and
Sl.S5 per foot for street frontage per year
for maintenance. This is to be borne partly
by the merchants in the blocks TO be
lighted, and a committee is handling each
block The city il to be asked to bear
part OF the expense, as the stationary
corner lamps and the swinging arc lights
are not to be dispensed with. In Los
Angeles the property owners stood the cost
of installing and the tenants pay the bills
for lighting.
would no doubt soon be followed I'm Omaha
by an equally enticng display on Farnam.
Such a tremendous blaze OF light as this
system contemplates would be a revelation
TO we'uns accustomed only to the ordinary
plan OF illuminating the streets. r.
