At this level there was a tremendous demand, with indlca^ tions that the leaders in the bear movement were accepting their profits, and for a brief interval it looked as though prices might re cover their loss almost as rapidly as they had declined. But after Belling up to 15.4i>c for March, 15.67 c for May and 15.tt5c for July, or from 40 to 45 points above •the low level, offer ings increased, and fluctuations later in the flay were very irregular, March closing at 16.34 c, May at 13.61 c and July at 15.62 c. Weakness at Liverpool seemed to a. ld to the terrors of the long interest before tho opening of the local market, but local bulls felt that the news con firmed the opinion that the decline was specu lative, and there was several developments which aided the recovery from the low point of th» morning. These Included the National Glnners' report pointing; to a total ginning for the sea son of less than 10,000,000 bales, a report that bids for print cloths at Fall River had been advanced Inc. bier spot sales reported at th«» decline In Liverpool, claims that spinners were. trying to buy in the South, but found no cotton offering in keeping with the decline in futures, and reassuring statements from prominent In terests on tho bull *id«. Mr. Patten. It was said, wired friends here that lie had not aban doned the, ball Fide of cotton, but that he was rebuylnjr cotton sold on the previous day and was "'advising his friends to buy also. Fluctua tions in New Orleans were, even more violent than in New York, there belpp a range there of from 66 to £7 points on the active months, with the, close, at the. best prices, or 3 to 22 points ab"vi> the closing figures of last night.

President's Message System's Obituary Our Preside nt has heard the c. q n. of the Repubfic. and has answered tt like A ROOSEVELT. Every friend oi the absent one, every red-blooded hater erf m::=h roomed dollar halos. in Congress and out. will promptly apply to Presi dent Taft for enlistment papers, and every mother's son of a recruit will stick until the President has treed his 'possum. Interstate-Anti-Trust- Federal Incorporation — each and all (if the Washington synopsis guesses or the message are correct) are bullets that go straight to the heart of the System's deviltries. Jf what President Taft recommends is done, I will stake my Her- & Hereafter salvation that the System's futnre will he that ot an electro cuted Sappin Paw on its way through Niagara Falls. The fight's nr<\v on — for the System will fight like a Sulphur Magnate in Hell — but the President must win. When I have read the message, I will review in detail, in a series of advertised articles, its effects on the stock markets. In the meantime, all the Roosevelt \ets~-90 per cent of the American people — should toss their bonnets to President Taft with a fervent "At last, 0 Lord, at last !" P. S. -The owners of the System trust stocks should lay in plenty of wall paper paste, for they wont be able to put their certificates to *ny other use after the Washington right starN All good "toppers" and like-situated stocks, which can take adwn tagl oi Federal Incorporation, should increa.^e m pflki value MO pCf cent, for there certainly will be lively times once investors start dHsqpafl cars.
