As cot- jton market developments further so lidified confidence in the continued strength of the actual stuff and shed new light on the tendency of staples measuring one, and an eighth and more towards even high premiums than obtain today. This in itself is a sustaining factor of great potency, as is proved every time the short at tempts to cover. Another influence distant in its nature, but of more or less immediate application is the un favorable character of the. reports from Southwest Texas, which supplies speculation with the, early cotton ar gument. Meanwhile, with the good world's trade and the world's demand for raw cotton holding u pwell enough the manipulator is encountering fewer difficulties than ordinarily would fall to his lot when favorable new crop progress is flaunted his way. Thus far the indications point to a firm market today and over the long holidays, but with the interest limited and profes sionals advising quick profits rather than extended operations, it is possi ble the shifting of scalpers' position may interfere with bullish hopes for the very near future. if ; unless "l ., . !,. linlirlsva rks untn am'i 1 1 we let i i-iiiii- unfavorable weamer sets onlv on decided set- D Freeman & Co's Cotton Letter. ,,,,,.,"1 i, c.ibert and Clay of New 'Xt!ff York, April 11.

The state of the money market was again yester day practically the only consideration affecting values of securities, and this was sufficient to bring about a more genuine liquidation movement in stcck than has ocurred at any time since the money stringency developed. Call money still kept within Monday's range of from 25 to 15 per cent., bank renewals being made, as usual, at 20 per cent. Time money, however, rose rather sensationally. Changes, for "commissions ' were generally made upon time loans amounting to ad vances for the different periods of and 3 per cent, and even more in some instances, above the legal rate. By midday the market had become dull, and prices had sagged back to Mon days level. Then, in the early after noon, when the stress in time money particularly asserted itself, this being also accompanied by an upward move ment, in call money rates to nearly the highest figures of the day the market broke heavily. The selling of stocks appeared to be mostly by the large commission houses and there ap peared to be little doubt that it was in the nature of a bonafied reduction of speculative accounts open for the rise. Declines running above 2 points were made at this time in most of the active stocks. This seemed to relieve the sit-1 uation, and the market hardened dur ing the remainder of the day.

Last Wednesday evening at 8 o'clock the Senior Class held an in formal reception in the banquet hall of the new dormitory. This was per haps the first affair of this nature given by any of the classes, and prov ed very profitable in every respect. President Kilgo has been invited to speak at the commencement .of Van derbilt University, of Nashville, Tenn. He will preach the commencement sermon. Dr. Edwin Mims has also received an invitation to deliver the annual literary address before the students of Elizabeth College, of Charlotte on the evening of May 22nd. Both of these invitations have been accepted. The regular monthly meeting of the Historical Society was held Thursday night in the history room. This was a special meeting, and a number of pa pers on local celebrities or local his torical incidents were read. Another feature of the meeting was the serving of light refreshments to the- members present: The Sophomore, Class met; , in the , Y,. M. C. A. hall last Saturday and trans acted some important business at the meeting. The most important thing, perhaps was the election of a captain for the class baseball team. Mr. W. R. Grant was chosen to fill this position, and he has been working hard to put out a winning class team. There was also a committee appointed, consisting of Messrs. Stanbury, Aiken and R. M. Gantt, to organize a baket ball team; The Trinity Park School ball team had a game scheduled with Cluste Springs Academy for today, but it has been postponed until tomorrow on ac count of rain.

The quiet and steady demand for goods continues, and buying from hand ;to mouth is a noteworthy incident of the immediate business reported. A11 spot goods are absorbed quickly and the general buy er of brown cottons is more confident of values. The export business for the moment is light. There has been a further advance in flannels, and all soft woven cotton fabrics are stronger. On heavy brown goods the stiffening in the cotton market had a reflective effect on the holding prices, of manu facturers. Take Hollister's Rocky Mountain Tea this month.

Facts Revealed By Examination Tax Collectors Books Today. Although the regular time for the payment of state and county taxes is far past, it was ascertained today by an inspection of the books in the of fice of Tax Collector Duckworth, that 60 per cent is a liberal estimate of the total taxes paid to date. There are on the tax -books forty names to the page, and many pages show that half or less than half are delinquent, the total number who have paid their taxes for 1905 being about 60 per cent. In view of this fact, it is likely that that sheriff and tax collectors Will have a busy time before them during the remainder of the season before the books are closed. The tax collectors are anxious to get their books for last year's taxes straightened out. and the number of delinquents on the books is rather dis couraging to the county officials, who have done their best to secure the pay ment of taxes before this date.
