"While it i a pot ween the season period ui the miliary market tor cui ton roov'.s tht is some uemana ior etail trade and from spots from th the i-utters w no nave .cone snori iui the summer season. One ot tlie pecul iarities of the market is the irregulari ty of prices as qiuned by the selling agents and the commission merchants in this city. There is no true basis to figure values on as the mills are mak ing terms to suit the situation in their particular circumstances. The same selling organization is quoting figures that are different on the same con struction. One mill being willing to take business a full 1-4 cent under tlie price of another. Thus the buyers are doing a good deal of shopping. On some of the transactions that have been put through during the past week the buyers have been successful in getting lower prices on bleached goods and the market is now irregular on the high count cloths as well as on the coarser fabrics. To the surprise of the trade the collections on April accounts are being made with less delay than was the case during the past month. All cf the large selling agencies and the commission houses doing a busi ness in southern cottons declare that .-v.- i"- t- t A Anroci rTl (Time CI cr 71 -5 Of r i ! re is an inquiry i orov n and color-! tQ, Hinnition1 for certain classes of bl ed cottons that indicat on the part of the buyers to cover for their early fall requirements.

Market Without Fixed Prices. It is stated by the f.elers of practical ly al classes of cottons that the mar- hot is one of the most peculiar that i thev have faced in years. There are;i&0G.

The decline in j the price of cotton and the irregularity ; in cotton yarn quotations has com- pieteiy tterangea tne process of buy-; in5 that the secondary market factors : are used to pursue. They are holding , their orders down to the lowest limit ' and are afraid that the prices on goods .' to arive will decline and leave them' in bad shape. They do not take into consideration the fact that the cur- tailment in the industry is the most drastic that has been experienced in a j generation. Even during the boom year of 1903 with cotton above 15 ' cents there were more looms in opera-; Ieifh.drillS,.aild dUCkS lhelt are .,r1 .ici.- men, Lais.; wiue vi tne umis majority of the lines are not sold ahead to any extent. The short or dering of the past few months has al lowed them to catch up with their con tracts and there is little delay in turn- mg out goods to meet orders. On brown sheetings the prices are bas".l on 6 3-4 cents for standard southern cloths and the lighter weight sheet ings are held at prices that shade down to 5 cents for 4 yard 56xC0s for early delivery. There are mills that will not touch business on this lower basis, but others are taking some orders at the price The call for brown shirtings is not strong, as the domestic buyers have not passed on their present stocks as readily as they had expected. The absence of export demand for brown shirtings is another source of weakness in this line of merchan dise. Colored Cottons Move in Small Volume The movement of colored cottons for spot an early delivery is confined to the repeat orders of the jobbers and some of the cutters who have been running along on a short supply. There is little snap to the market and tho largest buyers are holding back on their orders for stripes, hickories checks, plaids and twills for the rea son that they hope to cover at lower values. It is stated by the sellers that this expectation will not be realiz ed as the millo have their stocks sold down to a safe margin and are not building up any surplus at this time. The cutters-up who make a specialty of men's clothing are not as active as they were last month, and they com plain that their repeat orders are not coming in with the usual steadiness This keeps them from making any further purchases of colored cloths for their present season. Jobbers are also light buyers on cloths of colored yarn construction. Bleached Goods Market Weaker. It is certain that the prices in the bleached goods market must be re vised before the trade will come in with any snap. There are buyers who have orders whichthe y are willing to place if the sellers will accept them on a basis of 8 3-4 to 8 1-2 cents for 4-4 bleached cloths. As this is from 3-4 to 1 cent below the present holding price of mills there is a gap between buyers and sellers. that prevents the closing of business, tl is stated that the agents will have to face the issue and revise their prices and the circum- j stances attending the last revision are( recalled. Prices were reduced half a cent and then followed a period of dull trading. The sellers had to drop their prices another half cent to get in size able orders. This month, or early in: Mav, it is declared the prices on 4-4 1 bleached sheetings will be named andj then the buyers will be able to place j their forward contracts without thej fear of the market going lower. Oiii wide cloths the trading is flat. The I high count cambrics and muslins arej being ordered in some volume for spot' delivery and there are cutters-up who have need for more muslins, nainsooks, I lawns and linons. They are taking! these goods at the market price andj are not making a cmoplamt. ine jou bers of all sections of the country are slow in placing orders for the fall requirements on the high count goods j i 1 A1 I as well as on ine coarser ciuuis. Frint Cloths Weaker. The closing down f print cloth mills for an indefinite period and the cur tailment of the production of others is the news of the day. Yet this does not seem to stimulate the buying on the part of the printers or the general consumers of print cloth yarn construc tion cloths. Prices are irregular and there is no way of the buyer de termining when lie is being quoted the bottom figures. One mill is willing to accept an order for surplus cloths or to fill out for a short time on a low priced contract for narrow or wide cloths. The offerings of the con verters through brokers are having a depressing effect on the market. Some of the mills that are able to turn to other work are dropping the print cloth and going to other constructions to tide them over the balance of the SDnne. Regulars are held at 3 3-4 - ""s - xoUi. - cents nominally; 2S inch b4x60s are selling at 3 cents and the lower count narrow clotns are on tnis Dasis. roi wide cloths the market is getting somewhat steadier and prices are based on standards at 4 1-4 cents. Jobbers iV'ayHold Speci al Sales. Business with the jobbers in this and other large cities has not come up i to the average on fancy cottons for the Summer season and there is gen eral talk in the trade that there will I be special May sales of printed and woven cottons, as was done in May, i -1 ' -WT ! stimulus to trade in general may re- suit. The lines of ginghams, prints, chambrays and woven novelties that the iobbers have in stock are not as the pressing needs of the retailers. Prices In the New York Market.

A WORD IN REGARD TO ? PROHIBITION. !! Editor The News: I trust you will allow me space in the valuable columns of your paper to express my opinion in regard to the present situation on the great is sue now before us "State Prohibition." Well, to mildly express my ideas on this proposition, I wish to state that the good Book, does not mention pro hibition, but speaks of "temperance," that is, to be temperate in "drinking" and "eating." While I find it impossible to relate this issue back to the time when Moses, a youthful wanderer, was tend ing the flock of Jethro in the land of Midian, fourteen centuries before the Star of Bethlehem appared in the East, or before Nehemiah rebuilt the walls of Jerusalem, the City of great Kings. You can easily understand that I was not "present" in those days, but thank the good Lord I'm here now, and will ask the readers of your paper to get their Bibles and find and read the following: Deuteronomy 14th chapter, and 24th, 25th and 26th verses, and see exactly what the Bible quotes. It speaks in favor of wine and strong drink, and orders same bought and sold, but I fail to see where it states that a "Drug Store Saloon" is to handle these goods. I will also ask that the readers find "Proverbs" 31st chapter, and verses 6 and 7. Read the two crreat Commandments of our Savior, and last of all the Lord s supper, Matthews, chapter 11, verse; 19, and also Mathews, chapter 2Jnd, verses 37. 38. 39 and 40. Now. to be plain, I don't favor the Charlotte Prohibition, and wish to state that we have not had any saloons here in the past three years only "Drug Store Saloons," and I hear no mention of them. If it is a sin to se.i whiskey, why does the Good Book show different? Look and see. Please allow me to state that while I don't use whiskey, but will drink a glass of beer, which is a healthy beverage, I trust that the readers of this article' will not labor under the imnression that I am a "drunkard," "al together different" friends. I feel; j that it is no more of a sin for onei STtMyT"'1- "' . tiriif;ri.ir.iMiiiiii 1 Mm m i . . n n is ea si u si tt iai m mm ALCOHOL 3 PER CENT.

Prohibition has had a chance in Charlotte to be better regulated whiskey on "shares." They would also gather their ap ples and peaches and have them stilled into brandies, and always kept this cn the Sideboard in a decanter, and whe'i friends would come in. ".even Ministers," ! they would ask them if they wanted a "dram." "This is freedom." Now you can hear what good is whiskey? It is one of the greatest medicines on earth, and the revenue from whiskey and other things, help to pay off our government expenses, such "as Army officers, Navy officers, to build public buildings; pays Post masters, and many other things too numerous to mention. Now I will ask what does the Charlotte prohibition do? Very respectfully, LOUIS O. WILSON. SUFFERING & DOLLARS SAVED. E. S. Loper. of Marilla, N.
