UNION VETERANS
MARCH IN REVIEW

Atlantic City. N. j. September o.
With step devoid of it's former
elasticity the Union veterans of the
civil war today again marched In re-
view. As they marched In slightly
faltering cadence through the fag-be-
decked avenues they were acclaimed by
the largest crowd that ever saw a pa
rade in Atlantic City
Eighteen thousand Is the estimated
number of veterans who passed the
grandstand and received the salute of
the commander-in- chief, the Vice Pres
ident of the United States and the gov
ernor of New Jersey.
Fine September weather favored the
old soldiers. which accounted for the
unusually small number of men who
dropped out of line. In all there were
rot more than a score of cases of ex-
haustion and none of these amounted
to more than temporary fatigue.
The thinning ranks of the Grand
Army of the Republic were more
noticeable today than ever before
Many of the states were represented
by mere handful of veterans. The
smallest delegation was Arizona
which had just one grizzled veteran
in line, who got nearly as much APP
plause as he marched along as did the
big Army of Pennsylvania, which had
the largest number of men in the pa
rade.

CONTINUED RISE IN
PRICE OF COTTON
Heavy Selling Does Not Cause
a Downward Turn
BULL LEADERS ACTIVE
Business Is Improved in the Early
Session and Combined With Poor
Crop Reports Cause Cen
eraI Strength
BULL LEADERS ACTIVE

New York, September 22.-The cotton
market was more active today particular
ly in the late trading when the continued
advance in prices appeared to be meet
ing more opposition and there was heavy
selling by trade interests as well as real
zing and operations for a reaction. Of
ferings were very well absorbed, how
ever, and the close was firm, at a net adj
vance of 1d15 points, September being l
point higher and later months 10915 points
above last nights close.
The market opened steady at decline
of point on September in sympathy
with the relatively easy ruling of that
position in Liverpool, while later de-
liveres were las points on coverings on
shorts and a renewal of the demand from
one of the big southern bull leaders
There seemed to be rather a better
commission house business during the
early trading with a good many scatter
ing buyers suggesting that the upward
movement combined with reports of crop
deterioration and the comparatively
small new crop receipts, was attract
ing some outside support and 1t was not
until prices had shown a net gain of
136p14 points that offerings became heavy
enough to cause any reaction. Then
there was considerable selling partly
through western sources and prices eased
off or points, but firmed up again In
the late trading on the early reports OF
higher southern spot markets and con-
tinued demand from the bull leaders.
During the last few minutes of trad
ing offerings we're both heavy and ag-
gressive, but the active months closed
within a point or two of the top
Southern spot markets officially reported
were unchanged to 1sc higher. Weather
reports were generally considered favora-
BILE.
Receipts at the ports today 1880 bales,
against 26,791 last week and S70Sl last
year. For the week 10000 bales against
1ss, 7Os last week and 276.6o4 last year. To-
days receipts at New Orleans were loez
bales, against 1851 last year.

RURAL CARRIERS
FAVOR PENSIONS

Little Rock, Ark, September 22.-Those
members of the National Rural Route
Carriers association fayoring the Golden
bill providing pensions for civil service
employees won out in the convention to-
day when the civil service pension COM
mittee voted to indorse the bill.
A warm fight has been on in the COM
mittee between members favoring the
Golden and Gillett bills. both of which
are pending in Congress. The former
grants pensions to the civil service en-
ployes on practically the same condi-
tions as pensions are granted to army and
navy employees.
The larger portion of today's session
was devoted to general discussion of
the good roads question and to hearing
reports of the officers.
All the speakers urged the carriers to
work for state and national good roads
legislation.
President Freys, in his report, stated
that he had petitioned the Postmaster
General for additional compensation of
$3.50 a year for carriers for equipment and
maintenance. Among other things he
asked for local parcels post, for solu-
ton of the penny nuisance, that carriers
be given holiday on Christmas, and
that extra compensation be allowed for
routes of more than "a miles distance.
The seeretary's report showed receipts
OF s59G2.07 with disbursements of S2957 IA
for the past year.

HuIbard BROS. g Co.'S letter

New York, September 22-tSpecial)-At
the close of the day it was thought that
buying for the same account and others
allied with it yesterday had absorbed
fully 50G00 bales. This buying was at all
times aggressive, absorbing all the profit
taking sales and the hedges at advancing
prices, and closing the market at the
best prices of the day.
From Memphis a succession of poor
crop reports and buying orders were re-
ceived, while from the other sections of
the south there was disposition to real
ize or to hedge cotton recently bought.
The local trade assumed that the buyers
were in possession of bullish crop adj
vices which justified them in buying so
large a quantity of cotton during the past
two days, and they have become bullish
In their views and action, believing that
such active buying foreshadows an eff
fort to establish a level OF higher prices
at which the spinner will contract for his
commitments If he believes the position
of the bulls sound. September was neg
lected.
Liverpool should be points higher to-
morrow.

WHEAT PRICES ARE
SHOWED UPWARD
Export Sales and Higher Ca
bles Cause Advance
CLOSE AT THE HIGHEST
Colder Weather Cause General
Adyance-Onts Higher and
Provisions Lower

Chicago, September 22.-Export sales
and higher cables sent wheat prices up
ward today. The close was at a net adj
vance of 1sd4c to &c. Corn finished
NC to 7s01c up. and oats unchanged TO
1sc higher. Latest quotations for pro-
visions ranged all the way from 5Gd521ac
decline to the same as last night.
Pacific coast exports of 100000 bushels
of wheat to France were confirmed, but
the reported engagement of forty boat
loads for Rotterdam from American
ports on the Atlantic was believed here
to refer to corn. The market, although
level above that of yesterday during
the entire session. This condition was
due primarily to unexpected better prices
in Europe, and these in turn were large
ly the result of a reversal of predic-
tions for large shipments this week from
Black sea ports.
Aside from these influences a fairly
important portion of the buying here to-
day was based on the idea that Chicago
was the lowest market in sight.
Cause for the nervous feeling that pre-
vailed and for the narrowness of the
market were the heavy forwardings from
Indiana and Argentina. Another reason
was the absence of any change for COM
parison of primary receipts today and
tomorrow, as northwestern exchanges
were closed year ago at the time cor
responding. The close nevertheless was
at nearly the best figures of the day.
December fluctuated between $1.001s4
1O0ss and $1.O1h, with last sales A@ssc
up at $1.007s
Reported rains in Iowa and Nebraska
and fears of much colder weather in
those states led to bulishness in the
corn pit December varied from 50Ac to
s19sc, and closed strong &c up at 519sc.
Vhe cash market was weak, shipping de-
mand being light. No. yellow closed at
53la M53a4c.
In oats an early bulge was followed by
influential selling. The close was firm,
however. in sympathy with the strength
of corn and wheat. December sold from
343k@341Ae to 34s035c, and finished exact
ly the same as last nlght-S4ssQ35c.
Spectators and outside packers sold
January delivery of hog products with
a free hand and made an unsatisfactory
market on which to liquidate holdings
of near deliveries. In the end pork was
S21kc to 50Q521sc lower, lard unchanged
to 171hc down and ribs off be to 15e.
Future quotations were as follows.

CABBAGE FAMINE
ALMOST IN SIGHT
Virginia Supply Failed to Ar
rive Yesterday
STAPLES ON HAND
Prices Unchanged in Poultry and Egg
Market as Well as in Whole
sale Meat and Grain
Markets

Three cars of Virginia cabbages which
were expected yesterday on Morris ave-
nue. failed to arrive, and the scarcity of
the vegetable on the local marekt is al
most a famine. Receipts yesterday were
mostly along the line of staples, nothing
of especial interest turning up.
Prices and conditions were unchanged
yesterday in the poultry and egg mar
kets. as well as in the Wholesale meat
and grain markets.
Eggs are being quoted steadily at u
cents. fresh eggs being unobtanable at
a lower figure. Such storage eggs as
are sold are going at % cents.

offered by buyers. This caused some lit
tie buying for both accounts, and at the
end of the first half hour of trading
prices were points up.
The market held a very steady tone all
the morning. Buying was stimulated by
bullish kilograms from Galveston. which
stated that freight engagements out of
that port for October shipments of cot
ton were already unusually heavy and
that some lines had sold every available
inch of room for some European ports.
The large receipts at Houston 1t was
said, were due to the preparations for
this heavy export movement. The trad
ing months rose until they were 10 to IL
points up Longs took profits freely on
the rise aud at noon the market was
quiet and steady, to points down from
the highest levels.
In the afternoon session the market
was quiet but steady. The advance on
the more active months was widened to
i2 points. At 2 o'clock prices were within
to 2 points of the highest.
The market closed steady at net adj
vance of to 10 points.
