MARKETS BY TELEGRAPH.
Cotton Letter.

New York, May 25-(Special l)-Liverpool was closed today and our market was rath- CT dull and sluggish. August opened at 7.SS, declined to 7.S5, rallied to 7.93 and closed at 7.91 bid, with the tone quiet and steady. Crop accounts were very good and Septem- Der and later months developed no strength and closed at about the same prices as on Saturday. Much diversity of opinion pre- vails as to whether we are to have another squeeze in the summer months. The only advice we care to give our friends as to Those months is to keep out of them

 Georgia melons will be scarce this year. This is bad news for those who love tho Rattlesnake and the Kolb Gem. The crop is short and the railroads will miss many dollar in revenue. So will the doctors. But the growers ought to get a better price thls season than they received last year, says the Atlanta Constitution, which publishes letter from Forester Bros. of Albany, one of the largest melon shipping firms in the state. The AIessrs. Forester are pioneers in the business in Georgia. They publish the Melon Index and are authorities on the crop. In the letter they assert that the railroads are killing the melon growing business in Georgia by charging too high a rate for transporting the crop to market. Here is part of what the letter says:

Ery Goods,


 New York May 25.-The week opens with a quiet demand in all departments of the dry goods market. The attendance of buyers is moderafe and chiefly noticeable for the presence of a southern contingent with whom endeavors to place orders at low are more prominent than disposition to do business on regular terms. Business arls- ing from orders coming to hand through ceived from some of the western and southwestern markets are not of an en- evident that trade with them has suffered more or less from bad weather during the past two weeks, and this has to some ex- tent interfered with supplementary season. able business as well as with the demand for all the year round staple goods. The Stion Buyers are readily met at prevailing prices on nearly all lines of both cotton and wooen goods and in no direction IS there any of the hardening tendency noticeable, such as was seen in brown cotton goods, for instance, a little while ago. -

ABOUT BITTER MILK. A s]1ssss
Usually Caused by Iu-Health and Poor
 Condition of the Blood.

Usually Caused by IIl-Health and Poor
 Condition of the Blood.
 Several readers have written com plaining that the milk of their cows is bitter after standing few hours or a single day and that the feed used is of the best, clean and wholesome. Some of the cows have been in. but a few months others will be fresh within three months. Pc
 Cows that have been in but few months, are properly fed, have pure water, free access to all the salt they wish and give milk that is bitter with out being tainted by contact with out side surroundings, may be in ill-health which affects the condition of the blood.
 The best remedy for this trouble if produced by the blood being out of con- dition is to give pound of sulphate of soda (glauber salts) or of sulphate of magnesia (epsom salts), dissolved in warm water, by means of a common drenching horn or long-neclzed bottle; and after this has operated, a daily dose of one ounce of hyposulphite of soda may be given with good results, for two weeks.
 This latter is readily taken, by most cows, when powdered and sprinkled over mess of scalded bran or in other feed.-Western Rural. .,zsx.s

In this light can call up, at will all sorts of beautiful eolors, which I see mingled with the radiance and forming part of it. Thus ny blindness has always been for me in certain way bright ness.

CRUELTY TO CONNECTS.
Negroes in Arkansas Chained so The
 Couldn't Raise Their Heads.

LITTLE ROCK. Ark, Sept. 22.-The state penitentlary board, upon the re. presentations of Auditor c. B. Mills, and others, has ordered the discharges of the wardens at Vests camp, Gala way camp, Gray camp and Wrightsville camp and the riding boss, at Wrights. vile.
 The general charge preferred was ad . dic:ion to strong drink, and cruel treat ment ot convicts in their charge. The most fragrant act which came under the observations of Mills happened at Vests camp last Friday. Two colored c)nvicts had escaped and when captured they were severely whipped. Iron rings W Ire welded about their necks, and one end of chain fastened to the rings, and the other to their waists.
 Trey were unable to strengthen up when MT. Mills saw them, and the chains were drawn SO tight the men were UT able to lift their heads, being compelled to work in that condition. Subsequent the wardens and several of the guards became drunk and held a kangaroo court and sentenced the same Negroes to be whipped again, the sen- tence being carried out with cruel sever ity. By order of MT. Mills the two con- victs had the rings removed from their neckS,

THE STRUGGLE FOR LIFE 5. Dynamite, Buckshot and
 Death. as Rioters and Defenders War in
 the Moonlight. When Strikers Resort to Violence the Public Deserts Them No
 Matter How Deserving.

LEADVILLE, Sept 22.-The work of dynamite and buckshot is in evil dence at the city morgue, where five bodies, yesterday full of the vigorous life of the mountains, one riddled with bullets while doing his duty, two hor- ribly mangled by dynamite they were using to destroy life and property, the others full of leaden pellets received while they were fighting in the shad- ows to destroy the lives of men who were earning bread by honest toil. There were many people in the upper windows and on house roofs provided with might glasses, who in the bril- liant moonlight saw the savage attack on the Emmet, and the more than gallant repulse of the murderous riot CTS. These watchers say that the first volley from the mine was delivered at close range and that the attacking men fell like grain before the sickle. How many met the fate of Mike Daugherty, whose body was discov- cred last evening, it may remain for time and search of the long abandoned shafts in that vicinity to tell. It now seems that the rioters dragged away their dead and wounded Indian fash ion, for a great many people have been about the Emmet today, and this is the only discovery of that kind. The last vestige of sympathy for the strik- CTS has disappeared and this fact was evidenced at a largely attended meet ing of representative citizens this af- ternOon. Their proceedings were se- cret, but entirely harmonious, and measures were decided upon which, if stringent, will be beneficial in the highest degree

SLICK OLD CHAP.
Trades Mine Prospect for His Keep and
 Clothes.

OAKLAND, Sept. 22.-The very nat. ural desire of John Patton to be made comfortable for the remainder of his days and the hope of Mrs. E. A. Steele to increase, her worldly store, already ample, has furnished sensation which has to do with the piece and quiet of 8 lady well known and highly respected in society's most exclusive circles.
 Patton, who is an old soldier, said that he had located @ mining claim near Grants Paes, ip southern Oregon. but had no money With which to work it.. His story interested the woman of wealth to such an extent that she had the claim prospected and agreed to support the old man for the rest of his life.
 The mine did not pan out to the lady s expectations, and now she is trying to rid herself of her pensioner. But the old man holds an agreement in writing and he refuses to abandon the lead which he has struck late in life and which has thus far yielded more pay dirt than anything he ever tum bled on. b in the olden. if not golden, days of h g prospecting.
 Mrs. Steele has invoked the aid of the police to rid her of the drain on her purse, but the officers of the law are poweress to interfere, and the lady goes op paying Patton his pension, viewing with alarm his rejuvenating health. When che first eaw him he was we'll high starved and his days on earth seemed umbered. He has inn proved greatly with the aid of her dona- tions, and threatens to live long enough to make sad rent in her fortunes.

THE SPIRIT OF THE PRESS.

MOhave Miner: We rather expect t1he Republicans of Arizona will leave Tom Fitch in the shade this fall on account of his recent conversion, by the Hanna process, to gold.
 
 Journal-Miner: Stampeding a con vention and stampeding majority of the voters in this country are two very different things, as some people are already finding out.
 Graham Bulletin: An effort is said to be on foot at Stafford to suppress the Rattler. We want to see the Rat tier continue. Its campaign for the county seat will enable Solomonville to win, hands down.
 Tucson Citizen: The university op- ened today with bright promises of the most successful year since the founda- son of the institution. As time ad- tdnces improvements will be made in every department and the university of Arizona will soon be looked upon as one of the leading educational insti- tutions of the southwest Every en- deavor is being made with that end in view, and success is bound to crown the efforts of the tireless workers who have matters in charge

 Prescott Courier: I. T. Stoddard Yavapai's new Republican war horse, is again in Prescott. He is bound for the territorial convention at Phoenix and sniffs the battle from afar If Mo- Kinley is elected, Stoddard will be the next governor of Arizona, but that "if'' stands in the way as large as Copper mountain or a "for Mckinley and free silver" gall.

sue pulling them through, but thds is where they make a mistake.
 Weekly Orb: The voters of Coconino county have undoubtedly taken time and pains to study the situation and have made up their minds to stand by the man who will best represent the masses instead of organized wealth. Mr. ONeill is in favor of free coinage of silver and not an intelligent voter can doubt him, and it is beyond doubt that he will carry lCoconino by a good majority.
 Tucson Citizen: The need of the hour is man whose mental and moral character is unassailable; whose power of speech and ability in debate will secure instant recognition; whose very reputation will command respect when he takes the floor in behalf of i any measure he advocates; who is fearless in his defense of the rights of his constituents; who has a record upon the silver question which as sures his friendliness to the white metal; who is impervious to the at tacks of lobbyists, and whose moral courage will act as a barrier to the en- tertainment of any proposition bearing the slightest taint of detriment to his constituents. The Republican party of Arizona has within its ranks just such a man, and we believe him to be the Hon. Thomas Fitch, who has made a National reputation by his oratory, his display of thorough common sense and his undoubted patriotism. Should the Republicans choose him for their congressional standard bearer, he can be elected.

Old MT. B., who lived in Bangor several years ago, was called "very close" but grasping as he was he never would accept intoxicating liquor of any kind.
