market this morning and opening un-
changed for 40 points lower, active
months soon sold 60 to 63 points be-
low last nights closing figures with
March selling at 1890 and July at
29.70. There was Southern and I4iv-
erpool selling as well as pressure from
local and Wall street sources on con-
tinued apprehensions that the lower
exchange rates would interfere with
fresh export business. There was some
trade buying on the decline, however.
and the market rallied after the sharp
opening break, with July selling up to
30.12 or about 40 points from the low
est on covering. Private cables re-
ported continental selling of near
months absorbed by trade and strad-
die buying and other Liverpool adj
vices estimate that supplies of cotton
in Great Britain are sufficient to keep
the mills busy for nine or ten weeks.
Liverpool turned a buyer on the
early break, presumably to take prof
its on old stradd1es at the wider diff
ferences. This demand absorbed a
good many contracts and the market
was steadier late in the morning on
covering promoted by the rally in eX-
change rates. BY midday March was
selling around 34.60 and July 30.40 or
about points above last nights clos
ing quotations and so to 90 points
above the low prices of yesterday af-
ternoon. Private cables denied yes
terday's rumors that England would
stop importations of cotton but said
the basis was too high to permit of
buying for the present

New Orleans, Feb. 5.-The decline
on cotton continued today and around
the opening there was a fall of SO
to go points, selling being due mainly
to the talk of low sterling exchange
checking the export movement to Eng
land. Slightly better rates on ster-
ling and the efforts of shorts to get
their profits caused a fairly strong re-
action and at the end of the first half
hour of trading, prices were about 80
to so points up from the bottom.
Higher rates for sterling gave the
market increased tendency to recover,
the covering movement among the
shorts gained additional Roadway and
some little buying for long account
was felt, the latter. being based on the
belief that reaction was due Around
the noon hour prices were about 2 to
6 points lower than yesterdays close.

"They hold our memory dear.

Oh whom our annals tell
All risen this night their lord TO greet
Al sound Of the Christmas bell.
Nine lusty forms in linsey coats
Puffed sleeves and ample hose!
Each burgher smokes a Flemish pipe
To warm his ancient nose.
The smoke wreaths rise like mist,
The smokers all are mute,
Yet all with pipes thrice waving slow
Brave Stuyvesant salute.
Then into ranks they fall
And step out three by three,
And he OF the wooden leg and stan
In front walks solemnly.
Along their wonted course
The phantom troop patrol
To see how fares Nieuw Amsterdam
And what the years unroll.
Street after street and mile on mile.
From river bound to bound,
From old St Marks to Whitehall Point,
They foot the limits round;
From Maiden Lane to Corlear's Hook
The Dutchmen's pypen glow,
But never a Word from their lips Is hesrA.
And none their passing know.
Ere the FIRST streak Of dawn

Just at the noon of night,
NM Rare things are seen by morta
That have the second sight
In st. Marks churchyard then
They see the shape arise
OF him who ruled Nieuw Amsterdam
And here in slumber lies.
His face beneath the close black cap
Has a martial look and grim.
On either side his locks fall wide
To the broad collars rim.
His sleeves are slashed; the velvet coat
Is fashioned Holiandese
Above his fustian breeches, trimmed
With scarf knots at the knees.
His leg Of Gesh is hosed in SILK;
His wooden leg is bound,
AS well BELTS couquerers,
With silver bands around

His tablet on the wall
Where boldly "Petrus Stuyvesant''
Stands out beyond them all
