Against an Advance lust Now,
Despite Strong Spots.

NEW YORK, Feb S.-Southern and
Continental buying was responsible for
a firm tone in the cotton market at
the opening to-day ard first prices
were to points higher Than Mon
days final Spot interests were also
buyers, but trading was not heavy
enough to cause any great changes in
prices.
After the call new low quotations foi
the downward movement were estab-
lished under persistent selling, which
was attributed to a number of spot
houses, the ring and hedge selling by
the South. There was no particular rea-
son for the bearish move and 1t APP
peared to be on technical professional
conditions. May broke to 1225, June to
1906, while July touched 1875. During
the forenoon there was a brisk demand
on covering of shorts and the market
recovered a few points of the decline.

ton with keen eye and hope for some

vival of speculation an dan upward re-

sages received from the South to-day

actual by mills and exporters offset re-
ports of let-up in demand.
There was some nervousness apparent,
owing TO the February revise on meet
ing tomorrow on differences In grades.
However, on change of consequence is
expected. owing to the fact that South
ern spot markets show the differences
between grades to average about the
same as New York's existing on and off
values above and below middling.
At the close the market was steady,
with prices at a net decline of to 5

PARCHMENT OF

Washington Believes House Will
Order Trial Of Judge by the
u. S. Senate.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 3.-Represen-
tative A. ]. Volstead, Seventh Min
nesota District, who is the Republi-
can member of the subcommittee that
heard the evidence against Judge
Emory Speer, of Georgia, state to-day
that published reports that he would
oppose the formation of articles of
impeachment against Judge Speer
were untrue. He said he had formed
no opinion and would not consider
any phase of the case until the return
to the city of Representative Edwin
Y. Webb, of North Carolina, chairman
of the subcommittee, who is at his
home.
THE bars we're let down and the
world was allowed to come in and
bring everything they could find for
twenty years back against Judge
Speer," said Mr.. Volstead, land the
State of Georgia was raked with a
fine oothed comb for evidence, much
of it worthless, but many facts adj
duced will have to be seriously con-
sidered. | have not committed my
self, though every effort was made to
get me to do So"
The general impression iii Wash
inston is that the report Of the sub
committee will be adverse to Judge
Speer and that Representatives Clay
ton, of Alabama, and Flood. of Ar
kansas, will be added to the sub
committee to draw the articles of i'm
parchment that will go to the Senate.

Gossip last night on wheat favored

wheat was better than the selling and
most operators seemed afraid of the
short side. Corn traders favored buying
May and selling July as a spread. The
