zone line, section 400.
"Dianisidin, section 524.
81 have consulted the latest editions
i of the three leading dictionaries and
fail to find these words. What do they
mean?"

such it is not liable toany form of disease ex-

is not liable to weakness or diseased except
i'm rare cases. It's situated back Of and very
close to the bladder, therefore any pain,

Cotton Letter.


 New York, July 9.-(Special l)-Good rains in south Carolina and Georgia and light showers at three points in Texas and one in Arkansas preeipitated considerable lqni- dation in the cotton market today and a sharp decline resulted. Liverpool this morning was one and one-half points lower. Our market also opened a shade lower, August selling on the first call at TAO. The temper here was still bullish, however, and although Liverpool cablsd heavy selling orders, they were readily absorbed and the market became firm, August advancing to 745. The weather re- port showing the rain fall was posted when the market was almost at its best. The local traders then tumbled over them selves to unload their holdings. News.Or leans sold heavily and an Il point break followed quickly. August touched 7.34. The light nature of rain in Texas caused some change in the sentiment, and the bulk of the decline was recovered only, however, to again be lost in the last halfshour under heavy seEing by a large operator who bought freely in the forenoon. Tue mar ket closed barely steady with 7.34 bid for August With the Chronicle and the hu- reau report for tomorrow the session should be lovely. We do not think the crop has been materially hurt so far.
