J COTTON OOODS MAKKRT | %** **** ** llf?** fr?****-*-* Tho old year closed on Saturday very quietly In tho dry goods market, as both sell us and buyers, left early in (he day In order to take full ad vantage <>f the holidays. With tho opening of January, jobbers will have considerable in the way of deliver! >s to t lalo- on standard cotton goods. While some of the orders they have on their books have already been taken care of, there are quite n few that have not. and between now and the latter par! of tho month jobbers will have t.> do considerable in the way of tilling in. Ginghams, prints, sheetings and drills will be included in these wants, and if tho demand proves up to manufacturers' expecta tions it Is possible that thera will be loss heard regarding curtailment by cotton mills during the early paVt of tln> year. .Manufacturers closed the old year with light stocks on hand at the mills and in commission house:; here, as they have proceeded very, conservatively in making up goods, and in most cases the mills have not operated, unless they had actual or ders on their books. Cotton yarns closed the year in a very quiet con-, dltion, witli prices on spot yarns rath er Irregular and buyers sticking to; their hnild-tO-mouth policy in pur-' Chasing. It is claimed by spinners and other prominent authorities in the market that as long as the buyer can secure low-priced yarns with which to meet immediate < 'inurements j there is not much chain ?? of forward! contracts being placed et the prices which spinners are asking. The bur lap market was very quiet at the close of the year, as the markets in Calcut ta and Dundee closed down on Christ inns Eve ami do not open till this morning, The lien situation is decid edly strong as the new year opens, and I it looks very much as il some buyers were going to lind themselves badly in need of goods before January has progressed very far. -Textile Manufnc- j turer. ?ONACHKV SCOHi. MEYER. Arkansas Governor Sends Hitter Let ter to Secretary of Navy, Charging Cross Discourtesy. Little Rock, Ark.. Jan. 7.?George Von L. Meyer, secretary of the navy, is roundly scored, charged with wounding State pride and accused of "gross discourtesy" in general in a letter addressed to the secretary today by Clov. Gco. W. Donaghey of Ar kansas. The action of the navy de partment In arranging for the lauch Ing of the battleship Arkansas and tho providing of a sponsor brought borth the letter, which is framed in scathing terms. After reviewing correspondence and his request that the exercises he post poned, the governor continues: Charges <;rnss IHscourtsy. "I am now advised by yon that you treated this latter part of my sug gestion with Indifference and this olllco with disdain by arrogating to yourself authority, that neither law nor custom Invested you with, by pro ceeding to order . ueh ceremonies as might till your conception of Ar kansas' pride and duty on this occa sion," writes the g?xernor. "In doing this you were not only guilty of gross dli courtesy to the representative of a sovereign ?-State, hut subjected your self to a criticism thai con not be adequately expressed in an official communication from the r< prosenta tive of a Stale to an oJIlcor of tho I federal government, "Our people had put thoniiclvos to some pain to consider a pr< gramme that would properly present !?> the country not only their appreciation of the act of naming this vessel for their State, hut which would manifest in some fail' measure the patriotic1 and progressive spirit of our people and n tliis connection our general as sembly, which is about to convene, was expected to make a generous pe cuniary provision. Hut it plensesd von to deprive her of the best Oppor tunity she has had presented her in 50 years to exhibit her pride and patriotism on a scab- thai would grat ify her well-wishers." Washes Its Hands, in conclusion the governor declares that ilie. State of Arkansas will take no further responsibility for the cere monies attendflnt to the launching on January It. Following the recent announcement ; from WashliiRton that Miss ilary ? Macon, daughter of Representative' Macon of Arkansas, had been selected! to christen the battleship, Qov. Dona ghey announced that he had already J selected Miss Marion Clarke, daugh ter of United States Senator Clark*, for that honor. This embarrassing situation was relieved with the an nouncement of Senator Clarke that his daughter would decline the ap pointment and It was thought the Incident was ended.
