BEAR PRESSURE
LOWERS COTTON
No Change Made on Differences
of Grades-Support Lacking.
Big Spot Houses Sell.

NEW YORK. Feb. 5.-The failure OF
the revision committee to make any
change in grade differences was disap-
pointing to the bulls, and the cotton
market opened barely steady to-day,
with first prices at a net decline of
TO points from Wednesdays close.
Liverpool cables were also disappoint-
ing ing ana the seillng was rather general.
The ring Wall street and commission
houses had plenty contracts for sale,
while the chief support was attributed
to few leading spot houses. There
was very little snap to the market and
sentiment continues against an advance,
At the end of the first hour prices stood
4 to 3 points lower than the opening
quotations.
There was liquidation OF March, APP
parently to get away from that option
before first notice day. The weakness
of March pulled smaller options down.
The difference between March and May
is gradually widening, and 1t is gener-
ally believed that a further shrinkage
in prices will prevail. The fact that
the New York Cotton Exchange let the
fixed differences stand on grades. leaves
the market to the natural influences OF
its weak technical position. A few
weeks ago the expectation was that the
local exchange would increase on the
inferior cotton. but since then there has
been better demand for these qualities

them freely.
Support was lacking during the early

ground On the break March touched

from last nights close.
Explanation for the selling was easy.

declared Thursday that the investiga-

commission and the State Prison

Wet camps in Georgia." he said III
more than a. half job is to be done,

provided to prevent a repetition of the
eiruation that has shocked our COM

THE situation seems to be that the
action of the County Commission and
the state Prison Board will result in
only temporary relief.
Abolish Lash, He Says.
There is no good reason to con-
tinue whipping. 1t should be abol-
,shed by the Legislature. The guards
are hired to guard, and If they will
stav awake at night there will be nc
reason to chain the prisoners in their
hunks
Another trouble is that the auth pr-

troll of the prisoners is lodged with
state authority. The money controls
of course, and the men who handle
the money end ought to be responsible
for the treatment of the prisoners"
Jurymen Denounce Conditions.
NJ !. Thrower, one of the Grand
Jurvmen. Thursday came out strong
IL in favor of full publicity for the
revelations made in the present
probe. He said that Solicitor Dorsey
had agreed with him that the general
conditions in the camps were matters
for the public to know, and said that
these conditions were horrible. Mr.
Thrower declared that Captain Don
aldson and his men have become
hardened to the whippings, though
how any human being could become
hardened to the cruelties in the Full
ton camps passed his comprehension
w. A Hancock, another of the
Grand Jurymen, said that the main
trouble was that Captain Donaldson
concerned himself with the amount OF
work each gang did rather than the
treatment accorded the convicts. The
result is a cruel competition, in which
each boss is trying to get the most
gu. of his men. regardless of suffer
ing
The Grand Jury will take special
notice of the apparent efforts of the
State Prison Commission and the
County Board of Commissioners ID
shift the responsibility for conditions
and will make recommendation pro-
yiding that hereafter one or the other
of the two bodies take it upon Itself
to see that the convict camps are
maintained with a minimum of fog
ging and brutality and maximum of
efficiency and health.
This purpose of the Grand Jury Is
indicated by the exhaustive examine
