there have been many other things

3. Ie ARLITT,
NEW YORK, April 17.— There was a
good deal of realising for over the
week-end under yesterdays advance,
but the cotton market held generally
steady during today's early trading,
owing to rain reports from the South
and continued trade buying. The open-
ing was firm at an advance of 1J to
25 points, and after easing oft slightly
right after the call prices soon stiff
ened up again with old crop months
making new high records for the sea-
son. May sold at 42.486, or 1* points
net higher, while December advanced to

Chiefly owing to prospects of a speedy

applause tohowed this remark.
Mr. Bailey here expininedthat he
had opposed President Cleveland's ad:
ministration because the latter had
taken up with the mugwumps, and
went on to prove hie assertion; that
he had ceritcized Bryan because he
was courting populism but that he did
not believe either of these two acts was
as bad as Mr. Wilson's having "mar-
ried soctaliem." (ApDlause) He made
further reference to Mr. Bryan, whom
he stated still betieves in government

knew of no one else who does except

he ( Bailey) had said, he stated: "Now

parently from all walks of life. Many
bear evidences of breeding, education
and social positlon. Others are women
who appear to be of th* opposite types.
Every picketing campaign brings out
new charges that many pickets aro
“hired" for the work by others who
are willing to provide substitutes and
do not wish to picket in the streets in
all sorts of weather.
The suffrage pickets who made a
record for getting arrested, jamming
the police court docket and finally
having a hunger strike, patterned after
their British sisters, were compose*,
apparently, of women of all classes.
Many whose names are nationally
known di* picket duty, spent nights in
s police station cell and finally did
time in the workhouse. Some of them,
if the truth were known, were freed
by husbands who disapproved of their
actions. Then? was more than one
case of a husband promising the au-
thorities he would undertake the re-
sponsibility of making his wife "be
good," and more cases of stormy
scenes at the workhouse when the
husband arrived to take the wife home
over'her protests.
With the adoption by Congress of
the resolution for the woman suffrage
amendment to the constitution the suf-
fragists laid off, but they had flredan:
example in a local association of ne-
groes who were demanding the dis-
missal of their race from th* local
school administration. So the negro
women in emulation picketed the
streets surrounding the school admin-
istration buildings bearing banners.
Their picketing, however, was Inter-
mittent, and the negro educator to
whom they objected still holds his Job.
British humor all but broke up the
picketing of the British embassy, with
its possibilities of isagreetble ncl-
dents of nn international flavor, when
on the first day the embassy officlals
sent out and invited the pickets in to
afternoon tea. It probably was a
temptation, for a cold raw wind was
sweeping the city, but the leaders
pulled stern faces and declined the in-
vRation. * -
The embassy is on Connecticut-ave-
nue, in the heart of the downtown
business and residence district, not far
from Dupont Circle. • The mneighbor-
hood might be compared to Fifth ave-
nue in New York in the fifties. - •
Thousands of shppers, tourists and
government cierks and official* on
their way to office pass by, and for
days there was always a small crowd
watching the pickets and hoping for
a scrimmage. The old and deserted
Austrian embassy, once the scene of
social gay eties in the prosperous days
of the Hapsburgs, stands grim, silent
and dusty just across the street. No-
body knows who owns it now. It is,
a highly valuable piece of property
gone begging. Not far away is the
house James G. Blaine occupied while
Secretary of State. Dolly Madison’s
house is not far off in amother direc-
tion. Practically vvtry building in the
vicinity has housed some notable at
some time or other, and the neighbor-
hood is a playground for the sight -
seeing wagons. The pro-Irish pickets
selected a battiegroun where there
will be plenty of onlookers.
The first arrests of the Irish pickets
were not unneeompanied by elements,
of humor. The . police captain who
took them in was Robert Emmett
Doyle, rosy cheeked and blue eyed, who .
couldn’t possibly deny he was a non of
Erin. All the policemen on the job
were O'Connells and Regans and Fla-
herty* or bore names unmistakably
neither Greek nor Yiddish. Their com-
ments on the proceedings were neutral
■nd humorous.
The whole proceeding was conducted
in the height of courtesy and polite
formality. There wo* no "Come along,
you’re pinch**." Instead, Captain
Doyle raised his cap and with an en-
gaging smile said: "Iadies, these are
policewomen who wil place you under
arrest.' Then the men stepped back
and the women did the job.
