Cotton Market Steady
 But Opens at Decline

New York. Aug. 1G R-The Cotton Market opened steady today at declines of Is to 2S points under realizing by recent buyers ard southern or local selling, probably influenced by eastern Liverpool cables and talk of prospects for clearing weather in the eastern belt
 The initial selling sent prices down 10 1867 for December, or about 23 to 26 points net lower, but offerings were not particularly heavy and the market rallied s or 10 points from the lowest on cover- ing by the end of the first hour.
 Private cables attributed the rela- lively easy showing of Liverpool to hedging combined with Continental and Bombay selling but that cloth and yarn sales were more encour- aging in Manchester.

 PEACE CONFERENCE
Ulman and Morrissey in Session Today

New Haven, Aug. 1s R-Differ- ences which have been said to exist between Colonel l. M. ullman. re- publican leader, and Joseph Norris sey, chairman of the republican town committee, were believed to be on the way to be healed this afternoon when q dinner was given by the latter at which the colonel was guest.
 The gathering was suggested by former Lieutenant Governor Dennis 4. Blakeslee and it's underlying mo- tive was to determine. if possible, where New Haven shall stand in the coming state convention. There will be many candidates for various offices before the state convention. It has been the practice for many years for New Haven to act as a unit although there is no pledge to that end. Sometimes New Haven too has been in accord with New Haven county and it's vote has been thrown in support of candidates which were not from New Haven.
 There has been no statement from either the colonel or Morrissey as to differences of opinion but the under standing was that it arose over en- dorsement of candidates for ad- vancement in the local post office due to retirement for age of Assist ant Postmaster w. P. Tutle.
 However behind this was under stood to be the efforts of republi- cans out in the state. who tried to secure assistance of New Haven for several candidates for place on the state ticket. to line up .he town com- mittee and to secure control of the delegates to the state convention a proceeding which developed much difference of opinion.

will be given che runner-up to the CHAM
