The penitentiary directors are now es
timating that lis excess of inoome oyer

Very economical management, the em
ployment of many convicts on paying
railway work and good crops on the
Stale farm are the reasons.
Political apathy continues. Toll Is
the statement which comes in from all
quarters.
Some one made a newspaper statement
that Wayne county, always a Demo

State Treasurer Lacy rules out those
'nlckel-ln-the-slof machines which may

ago that the machines which always
gars chawing gum bat which were un
certain as to a money return could not
be prohibited. Bat these too are purely

By private wire, J. B Latham Co.
New York, Oct 2, Market narrow,
and generally unchanged, but an easier
tone noticeable. This Is attributed to
the disposition in part of great many
holders to take profits before the bu
reau. Every bale showed a good profit
and there's no telling what tbe figures
tomorrow will be. Lowest In last 20
years was 00.7 In I860. The report In
18M was 63.4, and last year Sl.4 While
every one Is looking for a poor showing
we believe the Government will hesitate
to put the conditional record figures.
It's not a matter of apaonlatlon, bat
a fact that reports here are not such as
to make one believe the condition tbe
worst ever recorded. There are too many
good spots la the belt for this, still the
last showing wu a surprise. Tomor
row's may be the same. If by any
chance 00 million ahonld be over last
year, tbe disappointment will bring
aboat a break temporarily. Should fig
ures reach 02 or tS prions will break a
dollar a bale. On a break buy eotton.
While we believe In higher prices In the
long ran, profit taking Is la evidence.
For many months there win be a heavy
movement. We advise extreme caution
pending the government Exports ,are
big but the domestic demand has slack
