BUYING
 FEATURES MARKET Prices Put Up At New Or leans Despite Blockade
 Plans of Allies

New Orleans, March S.-Steady buying featured the cotton market today and put prices up in the face of the an- nouncements regarding the measures in- tended by the European allies to pre- vent shipments to Germany. At the best the market stood 1s to IA points up and closed Il to IS up.
 At no time were prices under the level of yesterdays close. although Liv- erpool cables were unfavorable and war news was not regarded good, so far as it concerned cotton. On declines brokers handled & steady volume of buying orders and the market was forced higher very gradually. Some buying evidently was for the account of frightened shorts, but the bulk of it appeared to be for the account of longs.
 The days exports were fairly large, 50,5S9 bales, and they helped the mar ket in the afternoon especially after it was known that February exports were 1,544,512 bales, the largest for any month this sevson and larger than the exports of any month last season.

Third Stacker Will Join the Club at

- Weakened the
Club.
HARVEY BACK soon

Boyle's Indians packed their hamp-
ers and pulled out for nine Gay
cruise at the conclusion of the game
here Yesterday afternoon. They Will
not he seen here again until the last
dav OF the month when they arrive
with the Burlington Sox in tow Tor
three games. Immediately following
the Burlington series, Marshallto"n
and then Mason City will show mere.
Unless some of the postponed games
are played between now and the ciose
of the season, only twenty-one more
games will be seen at the north SIDE
park this summer. 1t is likely that
only two or three of the games post
poned will be played. AS Boyle mas
but four pitchers he will not want TO
work them any more often than is
necessary.
The Tribe has twenty-seven sched-
uled games to play on the road from
now on. Nine of these will be played
on the present trip. The next trip
has six games to be played and the
one following that, the last one. IN
cludes twelve games. Chances OF the
club finishing at the top OF the
league will not be helped any by this
last trip Of twelve games away from
/ : ~ y
home.
Harvey is expected to join the club
at Cedar Rapids. He may be able TO
get in the game this afternoon. his
return will strengthen the team ma
! terially. Yesterdays game in which
Lowther PLAYED at third showed very
clearly how Harvey stacks up in com
! parison with other third sackers IN
| this circuit. At least two hits made
by Muscatine would have been easy
outs with Harvey in the game.
The return of Harvey will place
Lowther back in right field where
Boyle has been forced to use pitchers
since the third sacker was injured.
The usn Of pitchers in right field does
not seem to help them any when they
20 in the box, judging from their
work tba last few days, while there
is no question but that the team Is
weakened with pitcher in the out
field.
