Mills, as n iule. hold small stocks Of
the raw material.
In the week just closeds striking
phases of the movement were Tx
ports. $4,000 bales greater than in
the same week last year; interior
stocks decreased $4,000 bales and
visible supply decreased 1900 bales
more than last year From Septem-
Der to date exports amOd'-t to
6.923.141 bales; spinners' tdklrgs, to
9,2S9 900 bales; into-sight move
ment to 12,54O.OOO bales.
Crop progress is making slow
headway in the early producing Soc
tions of Texas, thus increasing the
probable strain on the July and Aug
ust receipts of new cotton. IN this
connection, the trade anticipates a
small carry-over of desirable cotton
at the end of the season.
BY far the most important develop
ments of the week grew out of the
rather general and spontaneous de-
mand by interior cotton exchanges
that the government see to 1t that
New York's contract be so changed
as to bring futures in that market
to commercial parity with spot
cotton. The Memphis cotton ex-
change reached the root of the evil
when 1t asked the Federal govern
ment to require all future trading
exchanges to identify each bale
certificated for tender. The New Or
leans exchange so Identifies each
bale, and the system has proven Of
great benefit to receivers of cotton
on contract because 1t enables them
to withdraw cotton they can use and
retender the remainder without ex-
pense of recertification.
The New York system provides
only for the certification of. say, 50.7
600 pounds of cotton. with no iden-
tification of each bale. The result is
that unbroken certificates pass again
and again from one operator to an
other because, when a certificate be
broken and part of the cotton COW
cred by it be shipped out to the
trade, the remainder, before retender
becomes possible, must be recertifi-
Gated at cost of 65 cents bale.
This 65 cents a bale penalty is the
principal cause of the condition in
the New York market which have
given rise to complaints by the trade
that the New York hedge protects
neither the cotton long or the cot
ton short, and the New York market
cannot be made satisfactory to the
trade until it be eliminated.
With the New Orleans contracts
depressed by large stocks of low
grades, and New York July lower
than New Orleans July by 81 points,
hedge using merchants have some-
thing tangible to complain about.
Meanwhile, with March at a prem
UNI, New York's certificated stock
decreased during February The
question naturally arises, what will
be the fate of the New York stock
as May there goes to sharper dis
count under March?

AFTER MANHATTAN
MUTUAL REALTY co.
Charging Failure to Carry Out
Contracts, Attorney General
Seeks Dissolution.
In reIerraph 70 The Tribune J

Albany. Feb. l9.-Attorney General Car
mody announced to-day that he would IN
stitute proceedings TO dissolve the Man
haitian Mutual Realty Company whose
activities were exposed by The Tribune
last summer. The action is based on the
issuance by the company Of its home
contracts" which Attorney General car
mody calls a violation of the banking
law.
The company promised TO build homes
on any plot Of ground selected by the
holder Of the homo contract after 500
had been paid in 81 weekly instruments.
There was near endless chain arrange
ment. by which the holder OF the home
contract. after he had paid in $40, stood
chance TO make 81, 220 if the chain ma
tured within year.
To each contract was attached twenty
coupons. If the holder Of contract who
will he called a." disposed OF these
twenty coupons to friends, after he had
paid in so, and these friends purchased
home contracts, "A" would receive-so the
contract stated-sl on each new contract,
or so.
II each OF these twenty holders dis
posed Of their coupons. there would be
four hundred added TO the chain and a"
stood TO receive ~ cents on each OF these
contracts, or 500; then a" was entitled
10 80 cents on each of the purchasers OF
home contracts that these four hundred
brought in. which would mean eight
thousand new contracts. or $1,000.

MAY MEET IN ANTARCTIC
Dr. Koenig and Sir. E. Shackel-
ton Will Not Be Far Apart.


Vienna. Feb 19-Dr. koenig. leader Of
the Austrian Antarctic expedition. SAYS
that from scientific and practical view
point he would welcome co-opers tion
with Sir Ernest Shackelton, but thinks it
is not ne who should make the first move.
As he published the general plan and de-
tails of his expedition in May. 1871 e.,
long before the Shacketon project was
made public
Dr. kOenig purposes to land on Prince
Luitpold Land and from there VIII I'M
dertake three sledge expeditions. The
first will be southwark 10 ascertain the
continuation of the Queen Maud Noun
tains, the second westward TO explore
Graham's Land and the third eastward
at about eighty degrees latitude into the
Enderby quadrant
1t may thus happen that the distance
between Koenig's and Shackelton's bases
of operations may not exceed one days
sledge journey and the two explorers may
perhaps meet somewhere OIL the thin
tieth meridian on their way to the pole.
