under q recent decision of the state SUI
H,prerle court and which until now has

signed by the courts of other states TO
take testimony in Illinois have no locus

commissioner had no authority to take

TERRIFIC RAINS IN THE SOUTH
Towns are Inundated and Bridges |
Washed AWAY.


Canton, Miss, Feb. 2.-Rains in the
past 4S hours have caused the most de-
structive overflow ever known in this
section for 20 years. The entire western
portion of the city is inundated from
two to five feet.
The people of the overlooked section
have been taken by boats to other
sections of the city.
The Illinois Central railroad is sub
merged and many bridges have been
destroyed.
News was received here this morn
ing of the drowning of an entire family
of children on the Reid place, four
miles from Canton, the parents having
gone to festival and the dwelling be-
ing flooded before their return.
BRAZOS OUT OF BANKS.
Columbia, Texas, Feb. 1.-The Bra
EOS river began rising from the normal
stage, and in less than As hours was
out of banks in a number of places.
The water now entirely surrounds this
town, except toward the north, on the
Richmond road. The rise is almost I'M
precedented.
A TERRIBLE RAIN.
Madison, Miss, Feb. "A terrific rain
fell here last night, washing away
bridges and roadbeds all through this
section. The water at Calhoun station
was the highest for 80 years.
FLOODS EVERYWHERE.
Vicksburg, Miss, Feb. 2.-No trains
have arrived today over the Alabama &
Vicksburg railroad IRON Meridian, ow-
ing to the washouts, or any from New

Valley road. Floods and rains are re-
ported everywhere.
ONE VAST SEA.
Memphis, Tenn, Feb. 2.-The unpre-
cedented rains in the lower Mississippi
valley during the past 10 days caused
all the streams to overflow and the
lowlands in Tennessee, Arkansas and
Mississippi are one vast sea of water.
The bridges have been washed away
on several of the railroads, and traf-
fic is seriously delayed. In Arkansas
the damage from the flood will reach
high figures. The Ouachita river rose
80 feet within So hours, and the torrent
of waters swept everything before it.
Many fine plantations and farms in that
fertile valley have been submerged
and outhouses and fences have been
swept away.

MARKETS BY TELEGRAPH.
Cotton Letter.

New York, April 2.-(Special.)-Th cotton
market today, as is usual on the eve of a
three day holiday, was dull and stupid.
Liverpool was practically unchanged, and
the fluctuations here were within narrow
limits. Nobody was inclined to make any
new ventures either side, and the sole
aim of traders seemed to be to even up their
deals until after Easter. May opened at
765, advanced to 770 and closed at 1855 bid.
August, which has now become the active
bidding month, opened at 7.67, advanced to
III and closed at 1853 bid. The market
was quiet, but steady at the close The
wires report the weather at the south as
generally favorable, and in many sections,
especially throughout Texas, planting has
already begun. The crop outlook will be
narrowly watched from day to day. and its
varying phases will be promptly reflected
in the course of prices. The market was
never in a more sensitive condition. While
the bears claim that decline of at least
cent pound is certainty. the bulls insist
that prices are at least a cent a pound too
low already. The bears point to the wretch
ed condition of trade and to the big crop
which the south is straining every nerve to
make. The bulls pin their faith to the
strength of the statistical position of cot
ton and to the chances of whole capter of
accidents to the new crop, any one of which
would cause a scare among the shorts and
a rush to buy. There is certainly good
deal to be said on both sides of the cotton
question, but the flaw in the argument of
the bulls seems to be that they rely mainly
upon frightening the shorts to cause
rise. The truth is. we think that the mag
nitude of the short interest is much exag
gerated and that the shorts who remain are
now so ready and skittish that they cover
on every advance of few points and leave
the bulls to get rid of their purchases as
best they may Barring very unfavorable
planting weather during the present
month we expect prices to go lower. The
exchange will be closed tomorrow and on
Saturday, but will reopen Monday. The
Liverpool exchange will remain closed until
Tuesday next
