Inquiry was made today of Treasurer Brown of the Sir Walter Raleigh Monument fund, as to what progress had been made In se curing money.

There is surprise at the slow ness with which money has come in, as It was thought two years ago the funds would be In hand so the Memorial Ftatue could be ereoted here this year. It is strange that the tobacco manufac turers and dealers of the country have not contributed to this fund. The matter ought to be laid before them. 1 -NEW EDUCATIONAL OFFICE.

Exhibit at St. Louis, Rauigr, March 11. There Is much Interest in North Carolina's having a really great exhibit at the St. Louis Ex position. The legislature provides for a $10,000 appropriation In case a like amount is otherwise raised. It Is said that the $10,000 to be private ly raised will be forth coming. Owing to the fact that the State has such a su perb collection of objects In its great museum, it can make an exhibit at much less cost than other States. The museum collection Is so practical and so Varied, that it Is always Instantly available for Market Letter on Cotton. By Private Wire to J. E. Latham & Co. New York, March12. At one time today the bottom seemed to have drop ped out of Ui? market. In every way prices crumbled In a more sensational way than on the previous break. Taking the break from about 9,90 to 970 on this decline, and we believe less cotton was sold on the previous decline. In early dealing May ran from 9.79 to 9.86 and then the break started. Before traders knew what was going on, May was 9.68 After a 10 point reaction, the afternoon brought out more pressure and low prices were reached. It will require a lot of buying to get cotton back to pre vious high prices. An overflow may turn prices up, and people here mayjbuy on a further break to hold; but each day means nearer spring and the load will Increase. We don't .want to buy cotton and believe In selling August on all ral lies at present The south will plant for the biggest crop ever seen, and this will be a fear argument. We, would rather take chances on the short side on every advance toward 9Jc for the finan cial situation is not favorable for buyers at any such prloes as we are having now Later in the season It may turn out that the crop Is moderate and this will mean higher . prices, but we can't but help think , that cotton, especially August should be sold on all bulges. C. W. Lee & Co. Nkw Yobk, March 11. May sold at 10 cent again this a, m. then broke to 9,90. For the first time since the price was at 9.64 the market had a set back. It looked all day as though the bulla were selling out on the shorts, and taking profits, August went to 9.53 and broke at 9.42 in no time. When the selling started, . the market was seen to be well covered. The flood news, carried the market up rapidly this week, and a set back Is nat oahaL In case the bull people consider discretion - the better part of valor and begin to sell around 19 cent, there will be a set back of Importance. If the river over flows and shorts In May climb, why there will be another advance, but it be gins to look, as If August , could be sold again on every advance. If this market gets wobbly here, we can hardly look for higher prices than those reached on the last advance. The price Is a big one and we doubt If the market would have recovered this way had it not been for flood news. .It Is a fine .thing, for the bulls. They were selling cotton to the bear deque today and taking the boar money. If it goes higher they will have more to sell. Floods may cause another advance , but as August works over 9 we would not be long of the market and would take the short side on every bulge Every factor works' against the markec at 10 cents. A flood will mean a big crop next year. It Is a big market on both sides and big money If one can catch the fluctuations. t ,(4 . , O. W. LbbACo. ..

RALKion, March, 11. A very import ant act of the Logtslaturo, ratified Mon day, regarding the Banking Laws, aad glros the Corporation Commission new powers and duties as to the supervision Of banks. It provides for t'ue chartering of banks by the Secretary uf State, with the concurrence of the corporation com mission, without application having to be made to the Legislature. It defines the dutlos'of tht corporation commission In the supervision of Statu, private and savlDg banks, and requires all banks operated without charters to apply for charters and conform to the banking law of the titatu. Under tho terms of this new law banks can begin operations with a minimum capital of $5,000 In towns of 1500 popula tlon or less. It is learned from treasurer Joseph G. Brown, of the Methodist Orphanage that the gift and subscriptions to the orphan age fund now aggregates f CO 000. Work which haB beon suspended two month?, Is to be resumed this in ontli, and there will be no further stop until t lie main building is completed. The effort to secure reformatory for young criminals by meaus of a legisla tive act failed. It nifiy be that a private Institution will be started. The King's Daughters have the mutter of reforma tion of young criminal j and of boys who have no proper home very much at hcf.rt and It Is hoped that something will be done. In the bill us introduced a State appro priation was tieketi for, but this was cut out. Kvcn after It had been thus stricken out, the bill could not be passed. CLARK. -After a long March 11.
