new ORLEANS COTTON
MARKET WAS LOWER
Transactions Locally We're
in Poorer Grades.

New Orleans, after its holiday of
the day before, lost IA points on cot
ton contracts yesterday, as compar-
ed with the close for Monday. T his
considerably surpassed the small re-
action which was due to balance the
weakness of Tuesday at New York,
which on yesterday managed to break
even, except for points loss in the
distant positions. 1t was rumored
that the national ginners figures
would be 10,S00,000 The opening
was 5 to 8 points higher at New
York on cables, and only points low
er to / point higher at New Orleans,
this being due to the absorption of
| the decline in New York on the day
before These prices were advanced
3 to Z points during the morning, but
in the afternoon values worked low
er. The close was at the worst for
the session. Spots were unchanged
in both markets.
Liverpool opened IL to 2 IL points
higher, being due 1 to 2 lower. At
the early afternoon call the net
gains were further increased. The
| close was steady, to 1-2 points
| above the final for the day before
The market is due points down this
| morning. Spot prices were unchang-
ed, the sales being the generous total
of 10000 bales, the same figures as
for the two days before.
In the local spot market the sales
were confined to small lots of
lower grades, which sold on a basis
of about II 3-S cents for good mid
ding. The demand for the better
grades was at concessions which hol-
ders were unwilling to make Quo
tations are unchanged from Tues

Hyomei Gives Quick Relief to Catarrh
Troubles

Be wise in time and use Hyomei
at the first warning of catarrhal
trouble. Do not let the disease ex-
tend through the delicate mucous
membrane, gradually going from the
nose to the throat, thence into the
bronhial tubes and then downward I'M
til the lungs are reached and you are
in danger of consumption.
Hyomei is so uniformly successful
in curing this common and danger
Gus disease that Dodson's Pharmacy
takes all the risk and agrees abso-
lutely to refund the money if anyone
uses Hyomei and does not get relief.
Begin the use of Hyomei today, and
you will soon find that the offensive
breath, droppings into the throat,
discharge from the nose and all other
catarrhal symptoms are cured The
complete outfit costs but $100, and
Dodson5s Pharmacy stands ready to
refund the money if it does not cure
catarrh.
