WEEKLY COTTON LETTER.

New York, June IA week ago last
night August cotton was at 7.2S. 1t close
last night at ia. During the week the
fluctuations in the market We're over a fair
range without being violent. the low point
for the option named above being 600
The week has been interrupted by holidays
on both sides of the water and has been
marked by the advent of seasonable
weather at the South The most impor-
tant factor bearing upon values, perhaps,
was the publication yesterday by the
Financial Chronicle, of its estimate of
the acreage devoted to cotton this sea-
son. The document proved to be consid-
erably more bullish than had been anti
cipated, although its effect upon prices
pected. The Whitsuntide holidays in
Liverpool closed that market on Satur-
day and Monday last. 1t reOpened on
Tuesday and Wednesday, closing again
on Thursday, to remain closed until next
Monday. The takings by spinners there
of late have fallen to n low ebb, but this
is no doubt due largely to the fact that
during Whitsuntide week the mills are
closed and not consuming cotton. To-
at the South, which had from the very in
ceptiOn of the planting season. been cold
and extremely dry, and then cold and wet,
changed for the better and is now fayOra-
bic to the development of the plant. In
some sections it is true. the temperature
has been excessive and has done more
harm than good but on the whole the sit
uatiOn is much improved. About all that
can be said to this respect, however, is.

in every respect from now forward as
last year. to produce a crop of 100000
bales, and such a season we are hardly
likely to get The Chronicle report on
Thursday estimates the decrease in acre
age as compared with last year to he
1l6 per cent. This is undoubtedly in
keeping with the character of that jour
nal, very conservative estimate From
the reports which come to us from cor
respondents i'll the South, more especially
in Texas and Louisiana. we are inclined to
believe that it will exceed rather than fall
below this. In addition to the decrease in
acreage, the condition of the plant as Il
result of the tardy spring, must not be
overlooked. 1t enters upon the hot sum
mer weather ill-prepared to withstand
further yiciSsitudeS in the shape of drOuth
and high temperature. Further than this,
much of the cotton in Texas and Ar kansas

with the prospects of curtailing
in the event of early frOsts. The strength
displayed in the market yesterday is
thought to reflect the belief that the de-
cline to Z cents for August eliminated
the weaker long interest the knowledge
of which induced local traders who have
been waiting for n reaction upon which to
buy. to come into the market

AN APPEAL 10 THE PEOPLE.

On June ;, at State meeting held in
the city of Dallas, the Texas immigration
and Industrial association was perma
nently organized for the purpose to ad
vertise and develop the State generally
through presenting her RESOURCES, ad
vantagcS, and wants. fully and honestly
before the outside world. and the associ
alton is now actively at work securing
the membership to the association of each
city, town and county in the State before
they start out, so that all may be repre-
scented.
In order to facilitate the work of get
ting the Texas immigration and Industrial
association on practical working basis
as early as possible, we respectfully ask
that all the commercial organized bodies
in the State send their names to the sec
rotary, and also would suggest that cities,
towns or counties not having such Organi
cations. that they form such. and through
whom they could be officially represented
to the outside world, through the State
association, and that as soon as organized
the name of such he sent in. ANY location
desiring a form of rules and bylaws gov
erning such bodies would be cheerful
furnished on application. Any interested
city, town or county desiring further liz
formation relative to the organization an
work of the association will be furnishe
with much pleasure on application.
1t is earnestly desired that every citi
zen in the State will heartily Join in th
grand work. tending to result in such
good for the State generally. Its effective
ness and force would be increased with
the increase, of each membership. This is
strictly Texas affair; all cities. towns
or counties, members of the association,
beng equally represented, and the wants
OF each having the same attention. The
particular wants Of the smallest towns or
counties would be very expensive and
difficult to reach the outside world through
local action. whereas. through the Stat
association they would have more weigh
man the largest cities who might alsO
attempt to act Independently. and th
wants of the largest cities would ie
more effectively placed before the outsid
world working through the associaton

MOOSu COMMISSION DISSOLVED.

Constantinople, June 9.-Advices from
MOOsh are to the effect that the M0OSf
commission has practically dissolved. The
English counsel just appointed at Bltll'
has been instructed to 20 to MooSh before
the commission leaves as the ArmenianS
fear a resumption of the attacks if there
is no person at MOOSh to represent the
powers there. Reports have been re-
ceived that serious riots have oc-
Cured in MersOul. RumOrs that many
persons have been killed have been freely
circulated, but it is impossible to verify
the statements. Additional reports re-
ceivcd here indicate that the MoOsh com
mission closed on Friday so far as the
work of the European delegates were con
cerned They were compelled to tell the
Turks they could have nothing to do with
il. According to the statements of those
interested in the workings of the commits
sion, the representatives of the sultan
have not manifested honor, truth or de-
cency. They have made no efforts to de-
termine the causes of the OutrageS i'll Ar
menia.
The rupture between the Turks and Eu-
rOpean commission was caused by the re-
fusal of the Turks. on purely farcial
grounds, to hear important witnesses on
matters pertaining to the questions at
issue. 1t was evident that the Turks
were afraid that the tissue of falsehoods
that they have thrown around the Stua-
ton would be broken down.
The European commissioners will call
the representatives of the Turks into con-
ference to ascertain whether the high off
cials of any State claiming to be civilized
ever have taken the position assumed by
the Turks during the meeting. 1t is only
fair to say that their every action has
been prompted and sanctioned directly by
the highest authorities.

instructed the German embassy at Paris
