DECIDED UPTURN IN
COTTON MARKET
Only Transaction Locally
Was in DOgtaiIS.

Cotton contract values rallied sharp
ly yesterday from the depression
which has hung over the market for
the past week, net gains of II to 19
points for the day being made The
opening was at advances of to- Z
points over the previous close. Liver
pool considerably surpassed expecta-
lions. The disposition throughout
the session was to seek higher levels,
except for very small recessions. The
trading for the day was quiet, how
ever. 1t is believed that the weak
long interests have been largely elm
mated, and with the firmness of hold
ers, Overselling of the short side is
not looked on with much favor. Re-
ports would seem to indicate that the
American mills are running short of
cotton, a disposition being shown to
take on the poorer grades.
New York opened to Z points high
er on cables, and moved uncertainty
for the first half hour, when prices
turned definitely higher The close
was a few points below the best, 12
to Is points above the final for Mon
day. Spot prices were marked up 10
points. New Orleans opened 3 to s.
points up. Trading was light. After
an early reaction, the market firmed
up. The close was practically at the
best, 10 to 10 points above the close
for Monday. Spot quotations for mid
ding were advanced 1-16c.
Liverpool opened 2 to points high
er, being due unchanged to 1 point
up. Prices worked a little lower as
the session advanced, the close being
quiet, 3 to 4 points above Mondays
figures. The market is due 3 to 4
points up this morning. Spots were
advanced points, the sales being
1000 bales.
Little was doing in the local spot
market yesterday, except that good
block of dog-tails was sold to a mill
buyer at full values. Local buyers
were not in the market. The feeling
among holders is that they will not
turn loose for less than II cents,
while there is no present chance of OBJ
tanning within a half cent of that
figure. Quotations are unchanged
from Monday

CIRCULAR NO. 2 BY
r. r. COMMISSION

The Georgia Railroad Commission
mas issued Circular No. 2 in the series
OF digests of Interstate Commerce
COMMISSION commission decisions. Among the
decisions reported is one of . dive
house in Cincinnati which Complains
that the rate from Southern cotton
mills to nearby dye works, and from
the dye works to Chicago, is less than
the combination rate from the mills
to Cincinnati dye house. and then
to Chicago. 1t is held that as the
chicago through rate, even though
passing through Cincinnati, is based
ON competition of New England mills.
1t is not unreasonable. Another
case was one in which it is held that
mistake made by carrier in quoting
rate or route to- shipper does not
hold against the actual rate.
Six cases in all are treated in the
circular, which may be obtained with
out cost by addressing the Railroad
Commission, Atlanta

CENSUS TAKERS in
CIVIL SERVICE RANKS?
Member Commission FavOrS
Plan.

WASHINGTN, d. c., Feb. 1S.-
(SpeciaD THE members of the Civil
Service Commission believes that if
the work of the twelfth census is done
by a force of clerks selected under
the patronage system instead of the
civil service, it will result in in
creased wastefulness and inefficiency,
the decentralization of the force en-
ployed, diminished value of the cen
sus so taken, and lack of public con-
fidence in its accuracy and impair
TALLY"
Gen. Black, speaking for the Com
mission, says
1T was observed during the last
census that the great majority of
those employed, who took the cleri-
cal examinations of the commission,
were found to be far below the
average in general intelligence and
clerical ability. These persons had
been appointed upon mere pass ex-
aminations held by the Census Office.
Statistics prepared on this point on
several occasions show that only about
30 per cent of the. applicants who
were employed in the Census Office
were able to pass the commissions
examination, while of all other appli-
cants for the same examinations
throughout the country about 67
per cent, passed
Such tests of fitness or examina-
tons as to the intelligence and cleri-
cal capacity to be required for appIi-
cants for position in the thirteenth
census can be far more efficiently and
economically conducted under the
official machinery already organized
under the competitive system"
