asked to be let alone. The Chesa-
peake and Ohio and the Seaboard
officials have expressed themselves as
not being willing or ready TO spend
large sums of money to go into the
West End, while they have hand
some station in the East End. The
Southern officials will take part in the
general movement for a union station
on Main street, but demur in going
into the far West End.
A similar protest is made by the
Coast Line and Richmond, Fredericks-
bdrg and Potomac people. They claim

DAILY COTTON LETTER

NEW ORLEANS, Jan. 22.-Liverpool
experienced a sharp upturn today 16
points advance on futures, spots points
higher, with sales of 5000 bales. Antici-
patton of bullish census report tOmor-
row, but particularly news from New
York of McFadden being bulish and buy
ing, caused the advance The doings of
erpool and this name has been so closely
linked with the bull movement in the
market for the first four months of the
season that yesterdays news of McFad-
den bulling New York promptly attracted
a following in the other markets An
other reason for Liverpools willingness
to follow any bull movement is the large
stock there and in Manchester.
Chicago says 10000 union garment
workers will strike within eight days in
sympathy with New York. Freight news
is to the effect that a slump Of 7c more
is expected shortly.
Our market opened about 10 points
higher and had to take good deal of
selling at the start from the interior,
possibly hedge selling on the advance
against spots. The bullish example of
New York attracted speculative buying
support, however, and the advance was
maintained. March in New York seems
to receive the principal support and has
worked to large premium over May and
July
New York says that the March squeeze
is credited principally to the Fergus Reid
and Craig interests. New York continues
to advance and reported the Craig inter
ests and Hicks the principal buyers.
This forced short covering here on stop
limits and the market was carried to
1873 for May. Statistics continue favor

DELAYED BAGGAGE
EXPOSES ELOPERS
AT THE TERMINAL

Failure of express company workers
to promptly handle the trunks between
Macon and Atlanta last night led Mr..
and Mrs J. c. Glass, presumably of
Macon, to make public their wedding
secret and delayed honeymoon.
Had the trunks been handled within
the time Mrs. Glass thought they should
have been handled, westbound passen-
gers at the Terminal station at 10:45
this morning probably would have
missed the enjoyment of seeing a pref
tE petite young woman, stylishly
dressed in a blue travelling suit, soundly
berate Gateman Harry Roberts, of the
Terminal company, for the express
company's delay.
The attractive blue eyes of Mrs
Glass, who by her own admission, Is
a bride of less than "a hours. fairly
sparkled with anger as she addressed
Gateman Roberts. For five minutes she
scoIded employees of express and rail-
road companies in general, especially
those responsible for the delay. At a
point Where she stopped to recover her
breath, Gateman Roberts fastened to
inquire to whom the trunks were ad-
dressed
TO Miss Elsie" and then she
stopped
Il mean Mrs. J. c. GLASS;" she muir
poured IN confusion. 1--WE were mar
rled last night and had to elope. To
Keep it a secret from mamma, my
friends expressed my trunks to this

The trunks were expressed from Ma
con-
