NEW YORK COTTON

NEW YORK, March 11.-LR-
Old crop cotton deliveries declined
today but new crop months were
eyed with favor by buyers. The
final range was Z points lower to 4
higher.
In the old list March was hard
pressed following news Of an in
crease in certificated stocks (cot'
ton eligible for delivery on futures
contracts). At one time the spot
month had dropped IS cents a bale
but short covering helped the de-
livery regain its balance.
Bombay and Liverpool sold May
and July actively, presumably
against purchases abroad. Liver
pool premium on New York mar
rowed about 81 while the Bombay
discount widened around Is cents
a bale.
The market took a roster view
of the deferred deliveries largely on
expectations that current legisla.
ton aimed at an increase in farm
would pass both
branches of congress. Subsidy and
parity payments would probably
be included in the larger appropria'
tions, cotton men said.
Worth street had little to report
except for the usual Monday price
checking. Scattered sales Of print
and broad cloths were made at
steady prices.
Exports Saturday 37,513 bales !;
season so far, 5,173,265. Port re-
ceipts 33,O65; port stocks 2,S92,04S.

Toledo Schools
To Receive Funds,
Attorney Rules

Toledo public schools will not
be penalized in the next school
year by having part of their ap-
portionment of the public school
foundation fund withheld be-
cause of shortening of the 1889
40 school year to eight months,
Attorney General Thomas j.
Herbert ruled this week in an
opinion to f. N. Dietrich, direct
or of education.
A school board, where it has
normally operated its schools for
nine months but this year failed
to operate them but eight, may
pass a resolution prior to July
l, 1910, lengthening the term for
the next school year to nine
months and thereby qualify to
receive its regular apportion-
ment, Mr.. Herbert said.
1t is only after the school
board has shortened a term af-
ter passage of such a resolution
that part of their school founda-
tion money can be withheld un-
der the statute, Mr.. Herbert add
ed.
