he said. and 1 am at loss To un-
derstand how ii leaked out that !
was considering such thing"
1t is said that only through an
unanimous appeal OF the officers of
the battalion did Major Bowles recon
slider his reported determination to
leave the Blues. For the time being.
at least it is understood, he win not
tender his resignation to the adju-
tant-generAl.
Major Eowles' contemplated action.
il is said. was the outcome of the
recent trouble in Company A. Major
Rowles requested Governor Mann for
a board of examination to Investigate
the military fitness OF Captain Thomas
E. Mcdowell This was refused and
on this ground. it is believed, Major
Bowles decided to give up his com
mission because his recommendation
was not iavosabiy considered by the
governor.
Fer nearly two weeks the fact that
the Blues commander had only been
restrained from rendering his resigna :
ton by other officers was kept secret.
Al an officers meeting Monday d
week ago Major Bowles announced his
decision to resign. There Was an
unanimous protest. Other officers
agreed that irrepara BILE harm would
be done the crack military organiza-
ton of tho State II its major gave
up his post. Each declared that he
too would resign If their major went
out.
After this weight was brought to
bear Major Bowles declared he would
give up his idea Of resigning for the
present at least.

New Orleans Futures.

New Orleans. Dec. 15:-Cotton futures
opened steady at an advance Of l to 8
points on good cables. The large spot
sales in Liverpool. amounting to 5000
bales and reports or q very large SPOT
day. caused considerable covering Of the
short interest. The general buving was
stirrula ted by cablegrams containing low
estimates Of the East Indian crop. Prob
ably the advance would have ben wider
around the first call but for continued
light rains in Texas. At the end Of the
first half=hour Of trading the active
months were 6 to points over yester-
days close.
Light rains in Texas, reports from
New York that large part Of the short
interest had been covered and a holiday
feeling generally. were AGAINST the mar
ket and around the middle Of the morn
ing the trading months were put 1 to 2
points under yesterdays close. The mar.
ket was very steady at the decline and
commission houses received fresh buying
orders on it. These had the effect Of
checking the saseing movement and at
noon prices were 2to points over yes
terday's last quotations.
