THE COTTON MARKET
 ACTS OVERbOUGHT
Trading Months , to 8 Points Under Previous Figures.
 Net Loss 7 to 6 Points

New Orleans, April 23.-1he cotton mar ket acted overbought today. For while profit taking was carried on without any great impression on values, but in the afternoon the ring did not absorb offer ings well and the trading montii went 5 to points under yesterdays iast cuo- tati.,ns. The close was at a net loss ct ? to points.
 The weather in the western belt con tinued unfavorable and some little buy ing was done on it and the Mexican sit uation in the morning, with the result that prices were put 5 to points over yesterdays. This upward movement tempted realizing in both the old and the new crops Indications were for con tinued unfavorable weather.

Hubbard Bros. & Co.'S Letter

New York, April 23.--fSpecial) Cables this morning were better than due and the foreign markets were heavy buyers here early. the demand for May continuing through most of the day.
 It is rumored that this buying of May represented covering on arbitrage by a large Liverpool operator. Weath CT conditions in the southwest were again unsettled but 1t would appear that this bad weather Is slowly pass ing off
 Our traveller advises us from Hous- ton that the crop Is being delayed, but that conditions are by no means seri ous. Very slack business is reported in the yarns and goods market and under selling pressure which appeared to come in parts in the south and in part from northern trade interests the market was decidedly easier in the aft ernoon. all deliveries except May los ing their advance and closing under last nights prices.
 Should the weather clear over the southwest. we think this market will be found largely without a short in- terest.

RAINS HAVE bEAR|SH UPON WHEAT
Prices Unsettled 1-4 to 5-Sc Under-COrn 1-16 Off
 to 3-4c Up

Chicago, April 25.-Rains that put a stop to danger of drouth in the greater part of the country west of the Mis- souri river had baerish effect today on the wheat market here Prices closed unsettled l. e 9sc under last night. Corn finished 1-16@ac up; oats down l4 e ssc, and provisions at 1s q l5c decline.
 Selling of wheat quickly became gem eral as soon as the market was opened. The fact that the moisture in some sec tions of the dry belt proved light. and that in such places and that heavier showers would be needed without de- lay. especially in Nebraska. did not prevent unloading by holders nor re- strain aggressive attacks from bear leaders. Cables were disappointing to the bulls, and there was no support from shorts, who, as rule, had been eliminated by the advance due to the war excitement on the previous day.
 Although strong rally took place in wheat about the middle of the session on account of mllers northwest being active buyers, the market later suffered another setback. Absence of export in ing weather in Argentina tended to ease corn at the outset. but the mar ket later developed strength, the May option in particular. A feature of tho trading was the active buying of May and the selling of July on the part of several of the elevator companies. Receipts here were small, and there was a big falling off in Argentine ship ments for the week. Unlike corn, oats failed to display power to recover. Rainy weather with more predicted, acted as a weight on the market.
 Higher prices for hogs brought only temporary firmness in provisions. On all the hard spots in the market, pack CTS seized the chance to dispose of holdings.

Hard Unboiled Soap

Here comes the recipe for unboied soap promised just now. It is warranted good by housewife of experience. I can say nothing of my own knowledge concerning it, never having made pound of soap in .ny life.
 One can of patent lye and six pounds of clear grease. Dissolve the lye m one quart of hot water. then allow it 10 cool. Add the grease (which has warmed enough to run easily) slowly and stir until 1t begins to saponify, then add two tablespoons of powdered borax and one or two teaspoons of oil of sassafras. When the stirring gets to be difficult, pour the soap Into square tins Cor granite Is best previously dipped in cold water. In an hour or two cut into cakes of the desired size The next morning dump out and it is ready to use. This is excellent laundry soap and will not chap the hands.
 MRS. C. C. D." Much time and labor are saved by this manner of "saponifying'' grease and aI- kali. If the result be what the writer says it will prove it is worth trying.
