HUBBARD BROS. & co.'s LETTER.
New York, July 13.-(SpeciaD AN
Of the cotton markets were weak to-
day. under the influence of the rains
in TeSas AMI lht uncertainty in pusi-
ness circles over the outcome of the
approaching elections. This last fac
tor prevents spinners and merchants
from buying at present prices, as they
would in ordinary times, based upon
the remaining small supply in the
world and the possibility of some in
jury to the growing crop before the
completion of the season. This un-
certainty and the good crop advices
received from the cotton belt by mail
find the European spinner the only
buyer and he naturally buys slowly
and as cheaply as he can, it is be-
lieyed that the consumption Of cotton
this season, with a fair demand, will be
between S,500.00O and 100000 bales,
especially if we enter the season at
low prices.
notwithstanding the large buying
OF the afternoon. the market closed
weak at the lowest prices of the sea-
son, with the South and West free
sellers Of cotton. 1T is expected that
portion Of the purchases win be offer
ed for sale in Liverpool tomorrow,
causing lower foreign market in
the morning.

by the contractor.
THE propusition,' he said, lis absurd.
They propose to arbitrate upon one point
and afterward dictate what they shall pay
for the plant.
Their offer is practically TO give US
$4,000 for the crematOry, the construc-
tion OF which cost S2l 200. We only de-
mand the contract price, which is SIG 200.

good work. and we are willing TO obngate
ourselves to bear the cost OF maintenance
for one year. and TO guarantee that the
cost of keeping it up hall not exceed $500
per year Thereafter during the life OF the

Simply because the sale of the ashes
is not mentioned specifically ill the CON
tract Mr.. Warfield wants to ignore it, We
contend that the salable product is a

of operating the plant, and we will take

made to purchase the entire ash product for

east Washington, as told in The Times. He
was taken TO the station house, but could

town, Nd. showing that he had deposited
in that institution several weeks ago about
$500. He was examined by the police
surgeons. pronounced insane, and sent 10 st.
Elizabeth Government A sylun.
The papers and other property found in
Grimes possession were turned over to
Chief Clerk Sylvester, of the police depart
ment, who wrote 10 \. b. Barnhart, cashier
of the Hagerstown bank, asking about the
veterans identity. and stating that he holds
under the United States statutes part OF
Grimes effects. Mr.. Sylvester requested
to be placed i'll communication with rela-
tives of the unfortunat man, with a view
of protecting his property interests.
Cashier Barnhart has replied that he has
no knowledge OF Grimes, other than that
he had deposited money with the bank and
had dra wn it all out before he left Hagers-
town. The case, therefore, is enshroudcd in
as much mystery as before.
Some of the police here believe the old
soldiers condition resulted from knock
