From the Popular Magazine
Mr.. James Bryce, the British ambassa
dor at Washington, had as his dinner
companion, one evening recently, the
wife Of a western senator. She was not
at all laxative, and the ambassador had
put out several leads in the line of con-
versation without producing any appre-
ella BILE results. In a pause in the gener-
al conversation, he heard some one two
or three seats from him mention ''the
Oranges" that section of New Jersey
which is patronized by millionaires and
automobiles
Turning to his silent companion. Mr.

VERY QUIET WEEK
IN COTTON MARKET
Prices Change Very Little and
Remain Steady

Complaints of Injury TO the Growing
Crop Are Frequently Heard and
This Fact Helps to Keep

MOST NEWS rs BULLIsH

New Orleans. May 1T has been a
week of cogitation in cotton rather than
of action, with prices hardly moving.
The extreme range of the new crop
months in the future market was over
only to II points, while that In the
old crop was II to 20 points. the net
| changes were insignificant, where there
were any. May and December finished
al the exact level of last weeks closing
while July showed a net advance of 3
| points and October / point.
| During the greater part of the week
prices were not far from last week S
closing level, July keeping close to 14.7oc
and October to 2.70c. These two months
closed 20 to % points apart or just about
| the difference that has been maintained
| for the best part of a month past. Last
week they closed exactly 800 points apart.
| Undoubtedly extensive straddling oper-
atoms at greater or lesser differences are
always attempted when the market works
in either direction and this tends to
| keep the new crop at discount of cents
pound under the old.
The developments of the week can hard
ly be said to have been evenly divided
in their import. They were mainly bull
| ish During the first part of the week
the bull clique took up and paid for
many million dollars worth of spot cot

weather and crop news we're satisfactory
and the statistics were Unexpectedly
builish.
Against these features was the death
of the king of England, and this was not
discounted in the market for the reason
that 1t occurred Friday night and Sat-
urday the cotton exchange was closed
as an expression of sympathy for the
members of the Liverpool cotton ex-
change. The weather attracted more at
tention than anything else, taking the
week as a WHOLE and the bulls claimed
that the crop was still in a very un-
satisfactory state as the result of drouth
too cold nights and high winds.
Many complaints of seed rotting in the
ground were heard and reports from
important cotton districts in east Texas
and in Mississippi were that little cot
ton was up.
Favorable reports from any section of
the belt were few and far between and
| the consensus of opinion at the end Of
the week was that the crop was in a
worse state than was the crop of last
season at this time.
While many bears admitted this, they
contended that there was still plenty of
time for Improvement. In the spot mar
ket prices showed no change. middling
closing at 145sc. against 14ssc last week,
and 10 3-16c this week last year. Sales
on the spot amounted to 2030 bales,

| last year Sales to arrive amounted to
| 400 bales, against 2405 last week and
| 1925 this week last year.
