Pictures That Talk.

How would the ordinary person like

For years the aim of several invent

ism by which motion pictures and a
talking machine could be synchron

other.
At New York theater during the
week IL private and most successful

NEW YORK MARKET.
COTTON MARKET
AN ACTIVE ONE
BY AssoeIated Press.

New York, March 26.-Cotton opened
steady at an advance of 164 points on
better cables than due but quickly eased
off to yesterdays closing under a re-
newal of the selling movement which
again had encouragement of better
Southern weather. The pressure was not
aggressive and the market during the
middle of the morning session was quiet
and steady with prices ruling 2 to
points above yesterdays closing.
The Western belt forecast for wet
weather was expected to bring severe
strain on the levees in the Mississippi
river followed by a rather steadier
market later IN the forenoon, with prices
selling about to points net higher on
covering, part of which seemed to come
from New Orleans. Offerings increased
on this bulge suggesting a continued
disposition on the part of old longs to
reduce lines on advances, and the market
at midday was back to within a point
or two of yesterdays closing.
The market turned more active and
decidedly frmer during the afternoon on
renewed bull support and covering of
shorts with prices about s to points
net higher.
Cotton spot closed quiet: middling up
