New Orleans cotton Market.

New Orleans, October 20.--Spot cotton
steady unchanged; middling, 1870. Sales
on the spot 1915 bales, to arrive 600.
Futures opened steady at q decline of
to points on indifferent cables. Bears
sold very freely in the early hours in the
hope of inducing a reaction, and their
offerings put prices to 8 points below
yesterdays closing. From this level there
was q gradual recovery on telegraphic in
formation from Mississippi of very small
bales in current receipts. Early in the
afternoon the market commenced to sag
off again under renewed short selling. but
the ring was suddenly filled with buying
orders based on the rumor that the Ma
tional Ginners' association was out with
report showing 100000 bales less than
last year ginned to October IL, which put
prices up to the highest of the day, to
points over yesterday. The closing was
very steady at the highest of the day.

Baseball Talk
In Waterville

Already the baseball bee has been
uzzirg in many of the other cities and
owns of the State and as usual Water
vile is left out, for no reason what
ever In other places the managers
have felt the necessity of commencing
early and laying aside a small amount
FOR rainy days, and have succeeded III
securing many pledges of subscriptions
Baseball is apparently dead in this city
so far as support goes. There has
each season past been teams in the
field that with few additions would
have been able t, compete with any
other teams in the State, but nobody
thought it would be a paying PROPOSE
ton and the matter was dropped.
Waterville, which is the most CEN
trally located city in the State, hav-
ing every facility in transportation line,
has to sit back and read of what 9TH
ers are doing in the world Of sport. The
city is equipped with two suitable
Fairgrounds one the College field,
which could be secured for summer
ball and the other at the Trotting park
OH the direct car line Both are ideal
ball fields and could be leased for a
very small amount.
Baseball was Killed in this city years
ago, when professional teams were
placed In the field at a great expense.
1t paid for a while but the salaries had
to be cut down, and in so doing other
men were substituted. 'Waterville in the
past has had the reputation Of being a
hard loser but that statement is hard
ly correct, as the fans are willing to
support team but they have felt and
feel at the present time that a local
team could be organized such az would
give, any semi Professional team a good
run for their money. The expense Of
| running such team would be small.
The players would not necessarily be
| obliged to give up their work for two
games in this city per week would be
sufficient to meet the demands of the
i people.
A movement is on foot at present to
organize Trolley League to consist of
teams from Waterville, Augusta,
HalIowelI and Gardiner. Fairfield has
| been spoken Of and could get up q
! team inside of a day II the occasion
demanded. The new trolley line makes
| this move possible and the thing looks
good to the majority who have been
interested. 1t is understood that a
meeting will be called shortly and ali
those interested are cordially invited
to. attend. @ ,fs45 .s.e5. i

The party also favors a liberal edu-
cational program, a law providing for
the arbitration of disputes between
capital and labor and the appointment
of a commission to revise the tariff.
The conservative membership Of each

constitutional requirement that there
