MAY ASK GOVERNOR TO
PARDON NICK RANANUCk

Governor Stuart will probably be
asked to grant a pardon to Nick Rama
muck. who was arraigned In hustings
court this week on a charge Of violat
ing the prohibition laws. and fined $50
with thirty-day jail sentence. The
foreman OF the jury. in returning the
verdict, recommended to the court that
the jail sentence be RENTED. and stat
ed that they would be willing to sign
a petition to the governor asking that
the Jail term be removed. w. NJ. Jus
tbs. counsel for the prisoner. eagerly
adopted the idea and pr6duced the pc
tition for the jurors to sign. Ignorance
Of the law was given as the chief plea
for the defendant
Rananuck, a foreigner. has been in
this country only about a year. during
which time he has been employed at
the acid plant lin Hopewell. He claimed
that when arrested at Main Street sta
ton here with thirty-three pints OF
liquor In his possession he was on his
way to Hopewell. and that the whiskey
was to be used for medicinal purposes.
Judge Richardson and commemorative
attorney both refused to enter any pro-
ceedings toward remitting the Jail SEN
tence. and the petition to the governor
has not a. yet been presented.

NEW YORK COTTON MARKET.

New York. Feb There was
better tone 10 the cotton market to-
day, after some irregularity. Bust
ness as whole was not large, how
ever, and the general situation show
ed no change
The opening was a tame affair with
the tone easier and prices seven points
lower to three points higher the late
options being the highest. At tho
end Of the first ten minutes quota
lions were down four to ten points
under the start. The early irregu-
Iartty was followed by a sharp ad
vance during the middle of tho morn
ing Gables from London that the
British government had undertaken
10 insure neutral shipping at low
rate in order to promote trade into
the British Isles seemed to make a
bulllsh impression on sentiment. After
having sold off to 1880 right after
the call MAY contracts advanced
TO 1859 shortly after ! O'Clock, with
the general list selling about four 10
SIX points net higher after having
shown a net loss of nine to fifteen
points during the early trading,
The buying movement tapered off
after rise to ! SIT for MAY. and the
market was quiet again early in the
moderate rea ctions. II was calculated
ny local shipping man that the diff
ference in the rate mentioned in con
neCtion with the insurance plans for
neutral shipping and the present rate
would amount to about $50 bale on
cotton.
Local covering and an increase in
trade demand for the new crop gave
the market a frmer tone. Closing
prices were steady at a net decline of
four points to an advance Of thirteen
points.
Port receipts for the day were 49,
565 bales. contrasted with 1s,450 bales
last year. New York warehouse stocks
are 1926, bales, compared with 224,-
71S bales year ago. Exports for
