The success oe the New York state bond sale. additional gold im- ports from Japan, with prospects of fur ther drafts upon Britain's gold stores in Canada, were factors of sentimental value.

COTTON MOVES IN
 NARROW LIMITS Market at New Orleans Is Given Strength by Firm
 ness of Spots

New Orleans, March 11.-Cotton was steady today but moved within very narrow limits, standing at the highest, to points over yesterdays last quo tattons. and at the lowest 4 points un- der. The close was 1 point up to point down, compared with yesterdays close.
 The market probably would have re- acted from the advance under profit taking from buy~rs of the earlier part of the week but was given strength to resist pressure by the firmness of spots Sales in the local market during the last two days have amounted to nearly IT, 000 bales, while prices during the last three days have risen 3S points, or al most s2 bale Bears claimed that this was the result of a demand from ex- porters who were trying to fill their commitments before the restrictions on shipping declared by the allies go into effect, but bulls considered that part of it was the result of a brisker inquiry from spinners.
 Exports to foreign countries from all ports for the day were 41,s26 bales, as against total port receipts of 16,926 bales.

Better Things for Children

fFOn the Boston TraVeler.
 The Mother-Teacher Natural Educa- ticnal circle in New York has declared against all destructive toys in the nurs- cry and against football as school and ecllege game. The contention is that we are all born fighters and that wo should be taught to fight evil. disease and de- structve forces rather than to fight our fellow men, Hence no more tin swords and pistols for children and football for youths.
 lr it's purpose of banishing these things It cannot be denied that the circle has set itself big task. And It's proposed re- form might well be pushed still further. The public statues and monuments which the children and grown-ups as well are supposed to have reverence arc very many of them, reared as loving memo- rials to men who "repulsed the enemy with fierce and bloody slaughter Even the "Mother Goose Melodies" are full of the accounts of the wicked laying on of hands. Undoubtedly there Is sore need of work to be done along the lines ind- ce ted and perhaps 1t has been begun at as good a point as any. None of us cares to dispue that:
 "Tis education forms the common
 mind;
 Just as the twig is bent, the tree is in-
 cined."

HEAVY REALIZING MARKET FEATURE New York Cotton Is Irreg- ular But the Close
 Is Firm

New York. March n.-There was heavy realizing in cotton today which caused more or less irregularity, but the close was firm. net exchanged to point higher Liverpool did not fully meet yesterday s iceai advance. but after opening points lower to 1 point higher, the market here sold about 6 to points above yester- days closing during the first few minutes on overnight buying orders and short covering, part of which were believed to be against the small failure announced in the local trade.
 Buying for the latter account was esti- prices soon weakened under more or less general realizing by recent buyers and scattered selling for a reaction. The open ing advance had carried prices into new high ground for the movement within ] points of the seasons high record. This, in iteelf. seemed to largely account for the disposition to take profits, but offerings were pretty well taken on a scale down by fresh buying, and after showing net loss of some to 1 points. the market ral- lied later on trade buying, covering by early sellers and renewed bull support probably inspired by the continued large exports and reports of generally firm southern spot markets.
 Reports of small sales south and con- tinued spot house buying here was again supposed to be to cover hedges against sales of spot in the southern markets. Ao- cording to some advices there has been no material improvement in spot demand ia the interior and the larger sales at the ports reflect rush to export prior to March 16.
 Exports today 62, 7o5 bales. making 5.s4S,- 273 so far this season, Port receipts, 16,925. United States port stocks, l,569064. Interior receipts 145s9.

Hubbard Bros. & Co.'S Letter

New York, March Special .)-Liver- pool again leads finally causing the last of the local short interest to even be- cause they cannot understand why the market is as firm in face of absence of demand from the American spinners. There are many complaints from them of their inability to sell yarns on basis of much lower cotton. We should think your merchants would buy these yarns and hedge them here.
 Exports continue on a comparatively heavy scale, they being 5,S44,c00 bales to date, more than anybody imagined they would be.
 During the day there was considerable liquidation by parties who. having prof. it's, were disposed to secure them on this advance, which they thought too rapid to last without reaction. but the close was firm at the best prices of the day.
