“The Girl ot
the Golden West,” is announced to
open at the box office of the Academy
of Music next Wednesday morning at
10 o’clock. Mail orders from out-ot-
town patrons, some of them from a
great distance have been pouring in
all week and there is no doubt that
every seat in the house will be sold
long before tne arrival of the com
pany. It is a long time since as
much interest has been evinced in
social circles in this city over the
coming of a theatrical performance
as there is over the performance ot
the Girl of the Golden West,” and
there have been requests received
for large blocks of seats trom many
prominent society people. Mr. Sav-
age’s production, which is on the usu
al elaborate scale on w'hich he usual
ly mounts the works he produces,
particularly grand opera, is undoubt
edly the greatest musical event book
ed here for the present season. It is
an organization of great size and un
usual merit. Several casts of princi
pals, one of the best of which has
been assigned for the performance
here, a great orchestra of titty mu
sicians, and a large chorus are re
quired for the performance of Puc-
ciini’s opera and the fact of it being
sung in English lends more interest
to the performance as the book more
closely follows the text of the origi
nal pl&y of David Belasco than the
Italian version sung in New York
and other cities by the Metropolitan
Company. The management of the
theatre requests the patrons of tne
house who contemplate going, to se
cure their seats as early as possible,
owing to the great demand from
out of town theatregoers.

TKE cotton SITUATION.
Healthy Demahd for Spots — Confi
dence In Prevailing Prices Increas
ing.
Apathetic conditions prevailed dur
ing the greater part of the week, the
majority of the dealings being in the
nature of evening-up trades pending
the revision committee’s action which
was made public Thursday morning.
The result was an increased premium
on grades above middling of from 4 to
points, while at the same time the
penalties on grades below middling
were increased from 5 to 40 points.
Neither the conservatives, nor the
extreme radicals will be pleased with
this decision, but there is no reason
why the trade generally should not
be well satisfied with the rulings. The
new discounts established on the low
est grades will prevent the wholesale
dumping of poor cotton on this market,
thus protecting the spinner in his op
tion commitmenta against future re
quirements; on the other hand, the
planter is given a larger premium on
his high grade cotton which will not
only give him a better market for his
best qualities, but- should, also, fully
compensate him for > any loss- on his
bales which grade' below standard,
une result of the revision is sure and
that is that greater confidence than
ever will be had in the stability of the
New York contract.
The factor of* demand is growing in
importance as a price making element,
and it is because 'i^f tbis that specula^
tive interests are giving ihcreased at
tention to the foreign situation. Some
authorities identified with the trade of
the Far East maintain that inquiries
for goods from China are still satis
factory.'Thi S' is borne out by cable ad
vices that Engliah Bjiiis aU well said
up and by their continueui demand for
American cotton, our exports already
exceeding those of last year by over
600,000 Ojales. Less credence is being
given to reports that cancellations of
previous orders are imminent, although
it must be admitted that the volume
of business from now on will depend
largely on the outcome of the Chinese
revolution At the moment a hopeful
feeling is entertained of an early settle
ment.
The domestic trade situation Is slow
ly but steadily improving. New Eng
land spinners are Increasing their out
put and the demand for spots from
this s-ource is more pronounced than
for a long time past. There is no ques
tion but that the improvement in fin
ancial circles is already having a stim
ulating effect on the textile world, and
the gloomy, pessimistic feeling which
ha& prevailed for such a distressingly
long time is gradually giving w^y to
optimism.
Regarding the yield, there Is some
evidence that Texas will make a crop
this year, but, generally speaking, the
recent freeze has ended the growth
for the season. Southern spot markets
continue to present a firm front due,
in a great measure, no doubt* to the
movement now under way to hold back
supplies for better prices. It is doubt
ful, however, if this policy will result
in any material falling off in receipts
until well In to December for the rear
son that this is the time of the year
when the movement to market is great-

The census bureau will publish an
other ginning report on the 21st which
will cover the period ended November
14th. The expectations of many are for
figures which will indicate that the ad
vancing ratio of the last two periods
over 1908 has been continued, but this
will probably end the big ginnings
and thereafter a considerable falling
off should be witnessed.
It is only natural that dealings in
the options should now be concluded
with less excitement and within a nar
rowed range as the market has regain
ed a normal footing. As pointed out
recently in these advices, with cotton
down to practically nine cents per
pound, it is unreasonable to look for
any further shrinkage of importance.
Judging by the healthy demand by
spinners for the raw material it is
apaprent that they are satisfied with
current quotations, and after all that
is what counts in the end no matter
what the man committed to the short
side may think to the contrary..‘With
the quiet feeling now' prevailing it is
not likely that any considerable uplift
ing in prices will take place in the
immediate future; in fact, there is no
reason why extremely high prices
should prevail at nil so far as this eea^
son is concerned, as the supplies with
out doubt will be fully up to the above
trade requirements; but conceding this
it must be admitted that going quota
tions are now sufficiently low to satisfy
any fair-minded per&on, consequently
it would seem that little risk , will be
encountered in making purchases here
after, especially on the small reces
sions which every now and then occur,
ne should be satisfied with moderate
profits resulting from quick turns in
stead of waiting for large gains.

Champ Clark tells a story which he
says was given him by Representative
Griggs of Georgia. It runs this way :
“The head of a household was late
in getting home, and the wife up
braided him. ‘Why, dear, it is not I^,’
said the man, who had been down to
the club. As he finished speaking the
clock on the mantel chimed out 2.
“‘You have told me a story, John.
It is 3 o’clock and a nice time for a
■married man to be gettlnl; home,’ said
the vexed wife.
