Cotton Lett r.


 New York, June 1.-Lverpool did nothing startling during our holiday yesterday and when the cotton market opened today the cables reported prices there as unchanged from Saturday. Our market opened slight ly lower, but there was absolutely no pres sure to sell A few buying orders from Liy- erpool caused a rally, but did not relieve the prevailing dullnes. The weekly crop bulle- tinof the government was announcsd at noon and was distinctly bulltsh in tone, Che the reports from North CaTplina and Tsn- nessee being especially pooF. This stml- lated the market a little, but the meagfe- ness fthe outside business prevented 1t from having its full effect. August opened at 713, declined to TIP, advanced- -to-f:l9 and closed at TIT to 71S, with the tone of the market quiet and steady. With any specu- latlon cotton would have advanced -shafply today. Unless crop conditions 'impfove greatly the chances are against any decline ill prices. RIORDAN e&r co. I.

a Water Supply of His Own.

George Malenky is having a well dug
in front of his property at the corner of
Main and Fern streets He proposes
to go down about fifty feet for the pres

found at that depth to supply his needs.
The well is now sunk over one-half that
depth. Later in the summer he will
sink the hole considerably deeper, to
provide against all droughts which may
come along. The work is being carried
on night and day, and the blasting oc-
casioned much surprise in the vicinity
until the cause was learned

UPPER LEHIGH NOTES.

The observatory was an attractive
point for Freeland people yesterday.
The view to be had there is grand one
at this season of the year, and it was no
small number that took advantage of
the day. Notwithstanding the fact that
the tower is the most conspicuous marlo
on the mountain. and can be seen for
miles around, we learned that four
young folks of your town got lost early
in the afternoon looking for it. For
tunately, about supper time some small
boys found the pedagogue and the
mouldcr and their lady friends and
kindly led them out of the wilderness to
the objective point.
Mr. and Mrs. John Leisenring arrived
here on Saturday from st. Louis, where
they were attending the wedding of ID.

Investigating the wyoming Region,

The committee which is investigating
the condition of the miners of the an
thracite region were in Wilkesbarre last
week. A number of miners and laborers
were examined as to the time they have
worked lately, the condition of the
mines and the plan of management, and
one and all testified there was much less
work than there was a few years ago.
Many attributed the cause to the influx
of large number of foreigners, who
work for less than the English-speaking
miner can afford to do. They also at

fleeing their path. just below East

with passengers. Before the latter had
time to get out, the team rushed past.
The hubs of the wheels struck the side

No one was hurt, although several
were bruised in the scramble. A little
further down the street the horses ran
into tree and were stopped.

GubernatoriaI Campaign Is On.

From the Wilkesbarre Newsdealcr.
1t is not often the case that a guber-
material campaign, with regularly es-
tablished headquarters, starts who e
year in advance, but we are living in an
age of progress, and the old slow meth
odS are fast disappearing. The friends
OF Hon. John Leisenring have opened
headquarters in this city and from now
on until the convention of 1898 will
make every effort to secure delegates
and enlist sympathy for him throughout
the state. The organization is in cap
able hands, and their efforts and results
are bound to help Mr.. Leisenring i'm
mcnsely. The gubernatorial fight for
1898 may now be said to be on.
