Tight Old Crop Situation
and Trade Optimism
Helps Market.
By the Associated Press.

NEW YORK, March 21.-The cot
ton futures market had no outstand-
ing characteristic last week except
possibly its extremely narrow price
swings.
The tightness of the old crop situa-
ton and optimistic views of the gen.
eral business helped to impart fairly
steady undertone to the market. May
closed yesterday at 1100 and October
at 1922 compared with 1887 and
1921, respectively, at the close of the
previous week.
The evening up of March commit
ments in preparation for the final
maturing of the contract next We'd
nesday made considerable progress.
Brokers supposed to be operating for
the producers pool supplied the
March shorts at prices within few
points either way of the average quo
tation for spots at the eight delivery
points.
At the close yesterday the trade was
expecting an early announcement of
details regarding proposed payments
to planters who cooperate in soil
conservation.
Expectations recently expressed in
the trade here as to next seasons
acreage have ranged between 32,000,-
900 and 35,OO0,O0O acres.
The preliminary report of the Gen.
sus Bureau on total ginnings from the
crop of 1885 placing the outturn at
l0,4l7,237 running bales or 1o,635, ,156

less than 100000 bales of the official

SHIP BRINGS WHALE
 INTO SEATTLE PORT
Seattle Times)

Captain Charles O. Hansen. mas ter of the fastest steamship on the coast run. the H. F. Alexander of the Pacific Steamship Company Line, opined today his ship hardly could be called fishing boat after the occurrence last night of what he termed the most unusual incl dent Of his career.
 The ship awkwardly came into port with huge whale-one of the largest seen in the North Pacific in several years, Captain Hansen said, wedged across the ships bow just below the water line.
 T couldn't figure out what was the matter with the ship coming down Puget Sound. She wasn't per forming right and there didn't seem to be anything particularly wrong.
 We were making 9 knots an hour when the ships knife-edged bow cut into the denizen of the deep and probably killed the whale in- stantly.
 At first we thought we had hit log in the Straits of Juan de Fuca. The whale explains it. The force of the ship kept the whale hung on t'u bow We did not dis cover it until we docked when the whale fell Ioocn " Cantai,, Horeo,, said.
 Coming into port the ship han dled awkwardly and noticed Chief Officer Fred Bonham and the for ward crew peering over the bow then Bowman shouted, We got a whale"
 The ship required 12 minutes more than usual to dock. he said.

It is step down from the clear, idealistic thinking of the individual to the more practical compromising of views in a committee.
 The question is, just what is like ly to remain of the idealistic think ing of the one man if his thought product, in the form of bill, must be padded and patted here and there to meet the views of, say, 435 House members.
