France would be abandoned in a manner
to which the term friendship could not

ON the one hand while every revolu-

regard for the United States and its
people would be lowered from the pin
nacle on which it has stood. The President
would stand il his history as a warning
to all nations against placing any re-
lance in me United States. Financial
exchange might still favour the United
States but the moral exchange through
out the world would move against
the American name. Every American

London, Nov. goth. The question

that it would constitute gambling,

New York. Feb. 6.--The unfavorable
New England mill news this morning
had much to do with an opening drop
of 10 10 l6 points in cotton prices.
Sentiment was bearish because Of this
and considerable unloading, in part for
Liverpool account. causing prices to fall
about 23 points under last nights close.
although the setback met support from
spot houses. which rallied 1t about .
points and the market was about steady.
The rally from the early low level
carried prices back to about last nights
closing figures. After the close of Liv-
erpool. however. demand slackened and
the market developed renewed weakness
under continued selling by houses with
Wall street connections and the South.
May soon sold off to 21.57c and July
to 2O.75c. or 43 to 45 points below last
nights losing figures.
There seemed to be no fresh news fea-
ture connected with the break. but there
was a feeling around the ring that the
scattered southern selling probably re-
fiected hedging of spot cotton disturbed
by the unsettled state of affairs in the
goods trade.
