COTTON MARKETS.
NEW YORK.

NEW YORK, May go. - Business in
the cotton market today was confined
almost entirely to an interchange of
call orders, and the movement of prices
did not exceed S points. with the close
steady at l to points net decline. In
view Of the holiday here Monday and
the fact that New Orleans and Liver
pool will be open, this dullness was
only natural and attracted little COM
ment. The possibility that the German
reply would be received Sunday also
tended to restrict operations. and there
was an entire absence Of new COM
mtments. Toward the close some
Wall street selling and an easier tone
at New Orleans supplied local demand,
part Of which came from spot houses,
SO that final prices were of several
points from the best of the day
Opening steady at 2 points decline to
point advance. the market gradually
improved until at one time 1t was gen
orally to points above the previous
night. A little scattered covering ex-
planned this upturn, but general in
terest was light and the news did not
oner any incentive to support the mar
ket. forecast Of clear weather over
the belt. except for scattered showers
IN eastern sections, was considered
favorable. Fall River print cloth sales
amounted to only 1875. 900 pieces for the
week. or half the total of year ago,
with curtainment of $4,000 pieces,

NEW ORLEANS. La. May 29.-While
the cotton market was quiet today. 1t
had a steady tone and showed one or
two periods of strength. which. how
ever. were not caused by fresh long
buying. but by covering of short cot
ton on the part of traders who either
wanted their profits or wanted to even
up over Sunday or until after the bu-
reau report on condition. The close
was l to points down
Around the opening the market was
steady at an advance of l to points
shorts furnishing the demand. There
was little for sale and the advance was
widened to to 5 points. Late in the
session the market became unsettled
on good crop news and high private
condition figures. and the more active
months were sent to points under
yesterdays close. but toward the end
there was a recovery. The market had
no real selling power at any time,
although sentiment was bearish. Bulls
charged that il was badly oversold
Private reports on condition ranged
from S0.4 per cent to S1.2. and were
considered bearish, but they did not
stimulate offerings materially.

Uniting the Americas. =.

Mondays opening of the pan-American
conference in Washington was the most
important event which has happened on
IL western hemisphere for fifty years.
That It was SO recognized by all who
participated in this event Is evident
from what was said by President Will
son and the attitude of the assembled
delegates.
In all the ten countries of South
America there Is the same sentiment as
prevails in the United States. AS was
we'll said by President Wilson these
countries are not trying to make use
Of one another, but to be of use to one
another, and certainly the creation of a
GOOD understanding and the establish
ment OF close commercial relations will
be a mutual benefit and advantage to
each and all Of the various American
nationalities.
To show the Americas how much they
are needed by each other. IT was only
necessary that a crisis like the present
would come together like the blades OF
q shears and present an unprecedented
example of unity and diversity. These
states were not dependent upon mill
tary power for their security and
happiness. but each repose with absolute
confidence in their own political and ter
ritorial integrity guaranteed by that
universal respect for law and Justice
which prevailed from Cape Horn to the
Arctic sea
Quite naturally. the federal executive
gave some attention to his pet hobby of
a government line of steamers which
would AFFORD the facilities of transpor-
tation and communication between the
northern and southern continents. In
his Judgment. established routes of
trade ought 10 be provided which would
develop that interchange of commodities
which would create new forms Of wealth
in all the countries sharing in this COM
merce.

VERMONT'S EXAMPLE

Vermont is one of the wealthiest
States in the Union because
What her rugged soil denies
The harvest of the mind supplies
to-day as truly as when Whittier sang.
Organized common sense possesses the
public mind of the Green Mountain
State, and its reign at Montpelier is
recorded in the report to-day of the
rejection by the Legislature of bill
to make compulsory the reading of
the Bible in the public schools. Sim
liar proposals are pending at Albany
and several other State capitals. The
Vermont Legislatures action sets an
example well worthy the emulation of
other States. Here is involved no
question of the right of the State to
say what shall be read or not read in
its public schools. The same sover-
eign may order that the Bible shall be
both taught and read, just as it may
order that physics or Latin or Greek
shall not be taught in the public
schools. When this same question
was raised in New England in the
early nineties it was discussed in the
same common-sense way by Phillips
Brooks which the Vermont Legisla-
ture has followed in dealing with it.
He urged the disuse Of the practice not
because the reading of the Bible was
unjust or unlawful" but because its
use at not living practice, but a dead
symbol"
1t is an assertion of religious
character in our school system.
1t is as the symbol of something
which is felt to be so feeble Of
reality that without this symbol
it would not be recognized-of
something which has really pass
