The cotton market this morning showed a faid d;.'ee of activity, everything atthe opening be ing favorable for advancing the marker with the exception of fortign advices. Weather reports were eagerly scanned antl these failed to disclose molrture over Sunday. Texas reports continue buU;h. The forecast for that Sta:e was for no moisture beyend thunder showers m the western section. Until itnt State is relieved by rain the point is taken that the Question of a heavy yield m that State must hang In the balance. It remains to be seen wheth er the deterioration up to this time can be repaired la-r on or whether the loss is irreparable. On this po!at the trade sentiment is divided. The month Is drawing to a close with a much smaller movement of new cotton than looked for tmt 'his does not mean 'tiat the movment later on may not i li so heavy af to offset the bacirwnrJ- Preved Steel Car and 1 r- lieretorore. mo weeKiy oureau rr. 1: U jl-A f?l nearly a po.nt atd mu pert tomorrow is ipec:i in uoe ouii. 1 TS.

New Orleans helped the Wall street bull clique in the advance-and the general Wall street public were conspicuous by large tak ings of October. The heavy port move ment attracted very Kttle attention and shorts as a rule were nervous. Potr re ceipts for today were es n:ated at 7,000 bales, as against 5,508 bales last year. Early in the day Theodore II. Price issued the followlax statement: "Crop accounts reaching me this mom In siow that the crop is failing with remarkable, and wfca: is to me surprls ina-, rapidity. The market shows tbVa too. I look for much higher prices for cotton." Thomas Taylor of Galveston, Texas, one of the largest fhippem of cottou in the nouth ,1s quoted as saying that h- expects to sea some fireworks in the cotton market within the4 next thirty days." lie claims the south is undoubt edly short and those who ho!d the con tracts are m a fine position to squeeze. and wt'll siueew. hard before the new crow oezins to mov freely AceoTaing to Mr- Taylor it Is all "up to" the man who hods the long side of the market and Jf th.- nuke the endeavor sone one fj suffer. lie says thert are no re serves In taia country and America, la virtually without cotton today, a con ditior that has not existed for years.

The influx Of Soilthwn nmvs Intn Noitheru cities calls for thoughtful con sideration on the Dart of all srood itlxpna and particularly of those in charge of sanitation and public education. The Philadelphia Times. July 10th, in ad edi torial comment on the unparalleled in crease In the colored population during the last decade. 50.5 per cent, or two and a half times that of th population at large, recognizes the added responsibility hereby placed upon the Quaker City, which now possesses a- black population greater than that of any other city of the Union, except Now Orleans and. Wash ington. This rapid augmentation is not attributable to natural increase of resi dent negro families, but to Immigration ironi tne iNOutn. particularly from Mary land and Virginia, and in the llrht of th conclusions of such students of the negro problem from a medical standpoint as Mjr. x . xj. Dawingei, chairman or tae fac ulty of the University of Virginia, and 1 Dr. Seale Harris, health officer of Bul lock county, Ga there can be no excuse for indifference to the dangera incident to this rapid drift of the negro to the city. Dr. BaTringer, in his address en titled "The Sacrifice of a Race," deliv ered at the race conference held in Mont gomery. Ala., says: "All things point to the fact that the negro, as a race, is rapidly reverting to narbarmn, with the inordinate criminal ity and degradation of that state. Dr. Harris presents statistics showing the , enormous death-rate of 52.11 per l.OOO among the blacks, nearly double the birth-rate, 26.54 per 1.000. He says: "One-third of their births are reported as being illegitimate, a fact'whlca mere ly suggests the degree of immorality amonsr them. Contrast this whh the fart that among the whites less ,tban onr-half of 1 ier cent of births" are reported as occurring out of the bonds of. wedlock. The negroes, as a class, nave absolutely no conception of persenal hypiene.' Ha. ris quotes Hoffman's "Race Traits and Tendencies of the American Negro" to the effect that "In the city of Charleston for the year 1S00. for every 3.000 white children born. 1 there died durin the year 200: of negro children.-401.- In the city of Richmond, for every 1,000 white children oorn there died during the year IS7; snd of every 1.000 neirroe children born 3U died." Thee facts, toeether with the well- known susceptibility of the negroes to rnnuen;a. pneumonia, tnbercniosig and other infectious diseases peculiarly prev alent in the crowded districts of CTMt cities, suffice to indicate the increased daneer to health and morals accompany ing the Tapid urbanization of Southern negroes. . The Atlanta Constitution, in an arti cle urging textile education in the south, says: , "The scarcity of help is suggested as the chief obstacles to. be faced by south ern cotton mills at this time. The scarcity of good help is not, however, confined to the south, as many of the northern mills are short4 of hands, hay ing had such trouble In securing goot' weavers that a good deal of mill ma chinery through New England Is lying idle. The present troubles of lie south ern mills are not as great as those ex perienced by northern mills, because greater skill is required in making The finer cloths of the northern mills; but if the south Is to progress, it must meet without delay the problem of securing skilled labor." - .
