REPORTS OF lN "A Rk f=s, Y $ COTTON--GRAEN--LIVESTOCF.

tlcn. the effect of rc-scIling on the part of Eastern interests acted as a handicap on the bulls Opening prices which ranged from 1 3-4 cents down to 9 shade advance. with May $127 1-4 to $1.27 38 and July $1.45la to $l.45 3-4, were followed by a slight rally and then q more pronounced sag than before
 On the decline, commission houses turned to buying, effected by the smallness of country offerings, and brought about swift upturn in vol, ues. Tho close was strong 1-9 to , Is eants net higher with May $i.27 SIS and July $l ,47 5-S to Sl.47 3-t.
 Total absence of shipping inquiry weakened oats. As in corn, the favor able weather was also bearish fac tor. After opening unchanged to 3-8c lower, with July 6S 3-4 to G9 IA the market hardened little but later underwent a deided setback
 Lower quotations on hogs pulled down provisions. There were reports to of slack shipping demand and heavy stocks in warehouses.
 In later trading the fact that offer ings had dwindled led to more or less of a recovery.

Wasting Onc's Timc.

It fs probaole that large per cent of the morey paid for work in all em- ployments, public and privare, ia vast ed in idlins, talking, smoking and fo0., ing around. It can be noticed every day everywhere. 1t i3 bad symptom, says the Ohio State Journal There Is no difference Dctwe cn ste|lng ones time and stealing ones money. Peo' pie are not in the habit of looking at it that way. They think it is nothing to take ten minutes of mans time for which he Is paid three to ten dol lars q day. If one remembers the old adage that time is money, he will con' clude he Is thief if he takes either. Character consists in making honest use Of ones time, whether he works on a salary or by the minute. It IS character that he insist upcn, not so much the economy involved as the no bility of seifhood. That should be the treasure of every true man.

New York (GitOn.

New York, May 2.-Prospccts for fair and warmer weather in the South served to restrict buying and promote realizing in the cotton mar ket carly today. Ii looked as tho the advance of yesterday had left rather an easier technical position and after an irregular opening prices broke rather sharply. Cables were better than due and July opened at an advance of 13 points, selling al 27.05, or into new high ground fer the movement but later deliveries were unchanged to II points lower, July soon eased off to 26.44, or 43 points net lower, while October broke to 26.G5 with active months generally showing net losses of 35 to 43 points during the carly trading.
 Selling became active later in the morning with July breaking to 26.10 and October to 25.32, or 76 to Y points net lower. and in the case of July 95 points from the early high level. No fresh news features were connected with the decline bu tsellers were supposed to anticipate incrcas- ed spot offerings with the appearance O1 better weather Tn the SOulh.
 There was enough covering to steady the market during the early afternoon and cause rallies of 45 OF 55 points from the lowest with July selling up from 2G.10 to 26.62 and Oc tober from 25.29 to 25.S5. There was trade buying, and after selling early on outlook for better weather, some of the local traders covered on the continued reports of poor crop pro gress and replanting.
