England Pro-Austrian.

England fr0-AustrIan'
Great Britain shows no enthusiasm
over becoming embroiled in a war
which might prove a great calamity to
her interests. So far as opinion can be
gathered amid the paralysis which
overcomes all British political activi-
ties over Sunday, sentiment here tends
toward Austria. This is based on the
belief that Servan intrigues for under
mining Austria by a Pan-Slav move
ment have been so open that no ma.
ton could tolerate them. and in the
present eXuberant state of Servian ma
tonal pride only the sharpest and
most peremptory measures could have
any effect
one result Of the sudden threat Of
international complications is TO tbrust
ireland from the centre OF the stage.
II may even force the British factions
10 compromise, which even he King
could not accomplish, for a general
election under the present circum
stances appears out of the question. 1t
IS doubtful if even the governments
bitterest enemies would want q change
IN the Cabinet, and the consequent up
heavai of fierce political campaign.
while the nation needs 10 keep cool
head and free hands for the protection
of its European position.
To Use influence for Peace.
In speech at Steyning tonight
Francis Dyke Acland, Under Secretary
for Foreign Affairs, said:
There is a cloud over Europe far
graver and more serious than the posi-
ton in ireland. No one can imagine
the disasters a war IN which the great
European powers became involved
might bring to the whole world.
81 hope that the power of acconmo-
dating the difficulties in the same way
as in the Balkan States last year will
be found. The influence Of this coun-
try will be used in the cause of peace"
Sir John A. Simon, Attorney General,
referring in speech at Manchester
tonight 20 the European situation.
said:
at should be resolved that any part
that Great Britain plays shall, from
the beginning to the end, be the part
Of mediator, singly DESTROYS OF pro-
noting better and more peaceful rela-
tons"

We YER very sorry to hear Of the
death of our old friend, VIM. H.
Blaine, who passed away Saturday
morning at 8 O'Clock at his home in
Piedmont. have known Mr.. Blaine
since January, 1867. He was at that
time shipping clerk for the Clarkson
Milling Co. at Potosi. Later he be-
came associated with the Clarksons at
Annapolis, where he ran several saw
mills and a general store. He moved
to Piedmont about 1873, I think, and
organized the firm OF Blaine & Hatten,
which was afterwards changed to
Blaine & McSpadden. After the death
of McSpadden Mr.. Blaine ran a store
in Piedmont until his death. The de-
ceased was one of the best business
men in Piedmont and had accumulat-
ed quite a fortune. He leaves a wild
ow and four children to mourn him.

Uncle Eli-Some of your good peo-
pie in our old home in Missouri may
want to hear from us. Mr.. Chas. K.
Polk and wife and our friend, Thos.B.
Sharp, Sheriff of Madison county, are
with US. We have rented a cottage
on the east side of town, 1903 Jeffer-
son street. We have had six baths,
but notice no great improvement yet.
This is a nice little city with a popu-
lation of $4,000 or $4,000. Over 1000
people battle here every day. The
drouth was bad in this country, but
we are having plenty of rain now.
The grass is green and fine, and quite
a lot of vegetables coming to town,
but they are not first-class and the
price is very high. Buffalo fish are
plentiful and cheap, so you can guess
what we eat mostly. Mr.. Sharp and
l will stay two weeks yet. Mr.. and
Mrs. Polk will stay for some time.

DAILY COTTON LETTER

NEW ORLEANS. Feb. Liverpool
was very steady to-day, with futures
about two better than due. Spots un-
changed; sales, 5000 bales. Washington
says according to a cable report from
the International Institute of Agricul-
ture at Rome, the cotton raised in In
dia exceeds by almost 13 per cent that
of 1872. Final returns of cleaned cotton
in India show an amount equivalent
to 4,S5230l gross weight bales of 500
pounds.
Liverpool developed further strength
in the last hour and cabed "spinners
calling cotton" Several New York
houses sent bullish wires this morning
referring to the existence OF n large
short interest and suggesting the pos
notice day. The outside long interest
in March seems to be well lquidated
and tenders are likely to be promptly
accepted, as the New York stock Is
shrinking and needed for the protection
of the large stra ddle short interests.
There was a strong demand here this
morning from spot interest for March
contracts. Evidently the cheapness OF
March tenders is being appreciated
our market opened about two points
in the early trading. holding steady
thereafter around 12.53 for May. There
is steady demand for spots and no
cotton is being pressed for sale. on
the contrary. offerings are less than eX-
pected Home mills are IN the market
for lower grades.
The weekly statistics tomorrow
promise TO be bullish. particu arly the
interior movement and exports. The
into-sght for the week points to about
$4,000 against 23s. III bales last year.
and we compare with mill takings last
year Of 3i6000 bales for the week This
is about the last week Of large mill
takings last year.
