sun,s Cotton Review.

New York, July 15.-The Suns cotton review says: Cotton fell points and closed quiet and steady at a net decline of points, with sales of 14S,500 bales. New Orleans declined points, recovered all but 1 point and then declined again, being to 5 points lower at the close of change hour. Liverpool was unchanged on the spot, with sales of 5000 bales; fu- lures declined E to l point, recovered part of this and closed quiet and easy. Southern spot markets were generally quiet and steady. The port receipts were S22 bales, against BOA bales last year. Spot prices here were 1-16 cent lower for middling uplands, with sales of 299 bales for export and sos bales for spin ming.
 Today's features: All reports from the south were unfavorable. The weather was generally clear and this will give planters a chance to clean up the crops, and it is generally regarded as bear ar gument on cotton. The Liverpool mar ket was easier moreover. Some crop ad- vices were favorable and spot prices here were reduced. Then, too. although the continent bought to some extent, Liver pool sold and so did New Orleans Many believe that the crop will be much small CT than last year, and any attempt to cover shorts puts up prices quite easily.

the trial resulted in the failure of the jury to agree upon verdict.
 Since the incarceration of the defend- ants their families and those dependent upon them for support haves been de- prived of the necessities of life, and in some instances their families have been elected from their homes. owing to their inability to pay their rent. It is also stated in the bill that it is understood that none of the cases will be fixed for hearing during the present term It is therefore prayed that they be admitted 10 the benefit of bail as further con- finement in the parish prison without speedy trial is a great hardship and con- trary to their constitutional rights and privileges. Twenty-four of the thirty six men indicted are married men and have families. and they have never be- fore been charged with any crime against the law.

Rivalry Between the Two Cities as to Dis
 plays at Atlanta.

Philadelphia, July 15.--"Philadelphia is going to have splendid exhibit of heavy machinery at the Cotton States exposition at Atlanta" said Secretary George F. Vickers of the citizens exposi- ton committee today.

 "Pittsburg is making great effort to beat us She Is putting forth strenuous efforts to get her manufacturers to send a machinery exhibit that will outshine ours and will get a big space ine the state building.
