New Orleans railroad, was the state
ment made last night by r. V. Taylor.
vice president and general manager of
the Mobile and Ohio railroad, who.
with a party of officials and friends,
arrived in the city Friday night. The
business of other officials of the com.
pany is to look after some claims
which have originated as result of
the wreck on the NJ. and o in which
several members of the Eighth artil-
lery band were injured. Incidentally
this wreck, in which several were
killed, was the first in the history of
the Mobile and Ohio where a passenger
had been killed on the road.
This is my first visit to Pensacola -
said Mr.. Taylor at the San Carlos lasG
night, "and I want to say that / am
very favorably impressed with the city
and. It's advantages. have gone along
your entire waterfront from the G. f.

AS you Know, continued Mr.. Tay-
lor, 81 am vice president and general
manager of the Mobile and Ohio rail-
road and am frank to say that am
for Mobile, but the great fight right
now is the gulf against the Atlantic
The gulf must draw this business from
the Atlantic before there can be a di-

The gulf ports must night together.
I was chairman OF the entertaia-
ment committee on President Wilson's
trip to Mobile and spent several hours
with him. He took a trip up Mobile
bay and while he is the grea .est poten-
tate of them all and his utterances
must naturally be guarded it could 3e
seen that he was impressed that the
gulf is to be the center of the greatest

ever known, and that not only Mobile,
but all other gulf ports viii reap the
benefit. If / was called upon to state

show the greatest relative improve

tainly name those located along the

There was discussion today in Off

president might send message to
congress giving a detailed report on
the Mexican situa ton There was no
indication at the White House that
such was the plan.
Inasmuch as it. has been said at
the White House that no cominunica-

rectly to the powers and since nego-
tiations with the Huerta government
have been formally broken off. one in
ference drawn in official circles was
that the president possibly might ad-

eign governments being advised of his
views simultaneously as part of the

Sentiment BeariSh.

NEW YORK, March 4.-Influenced by
hrmness in Liverpool the local cotton
market opened firm to I points higher.
The more cheerful feeling in Wall Street
was reflected in considera BILE buying for
street account and there was also fur
ther demand for May contracts from spot
houses. After the call business was mod
erately active, prices holding around the
initial level.
There was better demand for cotton
at the outset than has been for several
days past and the market is steady with
apparently very little cotton for sale.
me selling was scattered, being attrib-
uted mostly to commission houses and
Wall Street; also, the South was reported
selling. The market ruled steady through
out the day, with narrow range. The
larger spot interests were leading buyers.
Advice from New Orleans states that
spots are in good demand with prices a
shade higher. Memphis also reports bet
ter demand for the actual
Mr. Wilson's inaugural address was re-
garded as judicious, containing nothing
likely to disturb the country's business

During the afternoon the market was
teatureless. prices practically unchanged
from the initial figures, being 1236 for
March, May 1908. July 1901, and october
Lob. Sentiment among the locals con-
tlnues very bearish, and the majority of
operators are willing to sell on all hard
spots. Others, however, are inclined to
await further developments of the new
administration and crop reports
At the close the market was steady
with prices showing a net gain of to 6
points from the final quotations of Mon
day.
