FIND SUPPOSED
 BODY 0F AVIATOR

Ostend, Belgius. March 15.-A body was brought to the surface in this har- Dor today which is thought to be that of Cecil Grace, the aviator who was lost last December while attempting return aeroplane flight from Calais to Dover. Although greatly, disfigured, the body is said by those who examined it to have the appearance of that of the luckless English aviator.
 Cecil Grace was the son of the late J. A. Grace of New York and a nephew of former Mayor William R. Grace. He was a member of the Royal Aero club and in an attempt to win the Baron De- Forest prize of $2O0OO December P flew over the English channel from Dove;, reaching the Belgium frontier. He was turned back by adverse winds and after landing near Calais, started on the re- turn trip across the channel. He was never heard from again but his Cap and glasses were picked up in the North Sea January 6 and later what was supposed to be the wreckage of his aeroplane was found near the same place

MARKET
 OPENS IRREGULAR Early Improvement Lost in
 Later Trading LIVERPOOL STEADY Was Little News Except Rumors of Probable Figures of Ginners'
 Report-Port Receipts Were Small
 
LIVERPOOL.

New York, March 15-A somewhat ir- regular opening in the cotton market was followed by rather sharp advance but the improvement was practically lost in the later trading and while the clos ing tone was very steady last prices were net points lower to six points higher.
 The opening was steady at decline of 1 point to an advance of ? points and active positions sold to points net
 lower right after the call under local of ferings which were inspired by rumors that the figures of the national ginners' association pointed to a commercial crop of about 12,25o000. Liverpool. however. was relatively steady, supporting orders, appeared in the hands of prominent bull brokers on the dips and the market soon firmed up with early sellers covering. probably in disappointment that the talk of a bearish report next Monday was not bringing more long cotton on the market. July led the advance with some of the prominent bulls buying that posi- tion against sales of May as they did yesterday, and while there was no change in weather news, October con tracts moved upward about In keeping with the old crop months.
 After showing a net advance of from SM12 points, offerings became little heavier following withdrawal of bull support and the market during the aft ernoon sold off with May declining to 1442 or 5 points under the closing fig- ures of last night. In the last few min utes covering imparted steadier tone to prices and the close was a few points I'D from the lowest on active positions. Aside from the rumors concerning the probable showing of .he national gin- ners' figures there was little in the way of news and from canvass made or trade in New York and Memphis 1t ap- hears that sentiment is prepared for a census report of next Monday showing only a little under 100000 bales ginned
 for the season including linters. Bear1sn operators are inclined to add something to the total ginning report for the mar gin which usually is shown between the final census figures and the commercial count.
 Receipts at the ports today S012 against ,672 last week and I.3s4 last year. To- days receipts at New Orleans 3430 bales against CYST last year and at Houston 11l7 against 1897 last year.

Hubbard Bros. & Co.'s Letter

New York, March 15.-( Special )--Re- ports from abroad were favorable this morning, but our markets lacking bus mess made no response at the opening, and the trading was low and local Later the short interest began to cover and advanced prices, but the prompt- ness in profit taking soon lessened the demand, and the improvement ended. The public is disinclined to enter the market and price movements are spas modic and short lived. Free mill buy ing is reported from Georgia, and a good demand of distant deliveries is ex- pected. Mississippi reports some lack of moisture, and the February rains in Texas are said to have been insuf- ficient.. Spot markets are steady. The National Ginners total figures are about 12,000,000. but they are Ignored. It is difficult to maintain prices under the conditions of trade. and crop pro- spects without speculative activity.

LOCAL QUOTATIONS

active months were to points over yes- terday's close.
 Belief in a bullish report on ginning from the census bureau next Monday caused considerable buying for long &C., count during the morning, many of the orders coming from outside traders.

The small movement attracted much attention. Lit tie Rock received only two bales of cotton for the day. At noon the trading months were 8 to 10 points over yesterdays close.
 In the afternoon session the market gave way under the report that the Ma tional Ginners' association was out with figures of F. 100000 bales as the total amount of cotton ginned this season. At o'clock the trading months were 1 down to up compared with yesterdays close.

BILL is PASSED FOR
HEAT IN ASSEMBLY

CARSON, New, March 16.-The
assembly on Tuesday morning pass
ed a bill making an emergency APP
preparation for the expense incur
red in heating the assembly cham
Der during the session. The amount
called with $1,000, and although
it passed without objection, there
were some who believed it to be
an unnecessary expenditure. They
took the stand that there have been
enough heated air of various sorts
turned loose during the last, sixty
days to have heated the chamber
without any aid from a furnace.
However, the bill passed and the
appropriation will be made.
