Post and Flagg’s Cotton Letter.
New York, March 17.—1 n spite of
so much bearish talk and sentiment
the market, while dull and narrow,
shows a stubborn tone and is evi
dently suffering from no vital, in
herent weakness. There is no aggres
sive organized support and in trading
circles sentiment remains strongly in
favor of sales on rallies with predic
tions that if for any reason prices
should work a cent or so higher the
market would be flooded with higher
grades of which there is supposed to
be some accumulation as a result of
swapping cotton of that sort for the
lower grades at heavy discounts.
That is among the possibilities even
if not among the probabilities but so
far consignments here for delivery
have been very scanty and the local
stock remains pitifully small. There
is a little nervousness as to the next
crop due to the delay caused by cold
and rather wet weather and also to
the possibility of a bullish report on
weevil emergence. Foreign trade in
terests are ■Credited with bolding a
mass of new crop contracts, of which
the greater part has been supplied by
speculative sellers.
It' will be many weeks yet before
any hedging will make its appearance |
and meanwhile the crop may pass I
through expereinces that will serious- 1
ly. undermine confidence in a large (
yield even if the acreage undergoes,
no reduction. I
1 Trade could be better but might be
a good deal worse and anway is
large enough to mean continued con
sumption of raw material on area
, sonable scale. The old maxim about
not bearing the tft.il end of a large
• crop shbuld not be too hastily thrown
into the discard.
POST AND FLAGG.
A Way We Have in America.
In Hutchinson’s book One Incieas
: ing Purpose there is conversation
about smoking in the presence of
ladies.
It is carried on in the homo of an
English nobleman of high repute.
The visitor. Mr. Simon Paris, is
struck by the fact that the men
do not smoke until the women go.
The mail of that home, Sir Henry,
says: "We have a custom of not
smoking until mother and the girls
have gone from the room and then
yc-smoke like chimneys. It is just a
little way we have."
We once had "a little way" of
that kind in the United States of
America. It rather became us, too.
Sometimes we pretend that we are
forever “ofF’ the puritanical, as we
call it, but we cannot quite forget
the c eanliness and courtesy of the
I home dining rooms where the young- i
|er sons did not blow smoke, between l
courses, around their mothqy’s and 1
sisters’ faces. II
i Women in these United States do i
| not smoke with, very much grace. A <
l European said: “American women
are garet wasters.” t

* oyM •* • on * ••..h* Jives, but that It be destroyed when he dies, as she does not .want strangers ever tor
* tho ukr»«».
When we iMiocently asked him ]
wliat he meant, he said, “They don’t
really enjoy eigarets. They don't in
hale them down deep into their
lungH as if they tasted good. They
nibble at them. They waste good
eigarets. American women never will
be able to smoke eigarets with any
great naturalness or any great joy.”
We don't think they will, either.
Our European knows exactly what
he is talking about, because his wom
en smoke naturally. Ours do not. It
I is still “A tittle way we have.”
