NEW ORLEANS COTTON.

New Orleans, April 30.-Conflict- ing influences caused nervous and irregular price changes in the cotton market today and after the early trading there was no very definite trend, last prices being 22 points down to 47 points up net. It was an active session with large trading in both the old and the new crop months. The new crops were much stronger than the old, which were effected strongly by bearish outside conditions while the new got most of their steadiness from private reports on acreage, one of which showed no change from the figures of last year while another showed an increase of only 1.3 per cent.
 In the early trading there were de- clines under peter weather over the belt.

OL.D CROP DROPS, NEW ADVANCES ON
 ACREAGE REPORT

Ne wYork, April 3O The cotton today Reports that more cotton was coming here for delivery on contract had an unsettling effect on the old crop positions while the new crop was influenced by bullish crop and acre age advices. The general list closed steady, net 5 to 15 points lower on old crop positions, but 13 to 43 points higher on the new. The decision by the board of managers to close the cX change tomorrow led to a good deal of cvening-up of accounts far over the week end.
 The market opened steady, with near months relatively easy on re ports that May notices amounting to about 1000 bales had been issued. The market soon turned firmcr, how ever, on trade buying and covering prompted by priVatet forecasts of showers in the eastern belt and a private acreage report pointing to an increase of only 1.3 per cent. The demand from shorts then subsided and the market turned easier during the middle of the day under Wall street, western and southern selling. The official eastern forecast seemed rather more favorable than expected and there was also selling on unfa- vorable labor advices.
 Port receipts today 20,532; United States port stocks, 1,1S3,054. Exports 14,328. Exports so far this season 5,576,S55.

Helene's Married Life By May Copyright C]ureN ndcate
By May Christie

MT. Ir. .,js Lloyd's announcement did not come as a great shock to me.
 l had had so many shocks of late, that one more or less did not seem to matter now. They had lost their potency. Familiarity with the start ling side of life had bred contempt.
 But 1 felt heartily sorry for the poor man as he stood there before me, that queer twist at his lips, and a look of hopeless misery in his eyes.
 Perhaps he'd truly cared for, me. He was to be pitied, then.
 "That mad woman-your wife?" repeated duly, "How-how awful for .you!" 1
 l could think of nothing else to say. But my mind roamed back to the mysterious Amy of the written note.
 At last I spoke.
 By chance, is her name Amy?"
 He nodded drearily.
 "The letter-you are thinking of it. IT wanted to explain at the time. But it all seemed so difficult l hliOW you W1OHS CiiONSHeo oH me, Miss Beauclare. You were con demning me. But the real truth of the matter was too dreadful to tell you-at that time."
 "Frankness is always best," l said with a prim little air of righteous ness to which I-of all people-had no right. "You ought to have let me know that you had wife alive"
 1 broke off, recollecting that I'd been equally reticent about my own matrimonial affairs-and with less reason. Oh, what a hypocrite l was
 I'd kept my own marriage dark thru silly, resentful pride. The awful part was that in doing so seemed to have made everyone mis- erable all round. MT. Lloyd would never have cherished hopes of one day winning me, had he known that I was already married. l could have nursed my Jim, too, openly, and satisfied his mother that he'd got the
