New York April &.--IIubbard Bros. e.
Co., in their review of the market, say of
cotton: From the depression of last Mon
day, when the first effect of the outbreak
of hostilites in the Lsvant was felt the
market has shown more strength than at
any time this season. That an improve
ment might follow If the threatened war
was averted was the general belief of the
trade, but that a substantial advance
should follow the declaration of war was
not thought possible. II is, of course, now
believed that the powers will interfere to
preserve Greece from the natural result
of the war and that shortly the differences
will be adjusted in some manner to- again
postpone the settlement of the eastern
question. The real foundation for the Inn
provement, however, has been the awalN-
ening of spinners to the small supply
from which they are to draw their require
ments during the next, five or six months
and the disposition of the continental buy
ers to secure in advance of the American
spinners, the grades desirable for spin
ming.
Speculation has not, at any time appear
ed as a factor. On the contrary, many who
have held cotton for a long time have part
ed with their holdings on what appears
to he the beginning of an advance, and
their sales have supplied the exporters and
spinners, as at this season of the year the
remaining stock is in some manner hedged
or protected. Mr.. Ellison estimates that,
on Sept 1, 1897, with an American crop
of $3.50, 600 bales, the stocks, remaining in
the European norts will be 5S8 coo bales, Of
which S63, GOO bales win be American. This
would be the smallest stock since $780,
when cotton sold above u cents. When we
reflect that the current estimates of the
present crop is $4,000 bales and that the
growing crop is believed to be backward
and therefore not available for early ship
ment to Europe, the strength of the po-
sition is apparent to everyone as a reduce
ton Of the stocks below this estimate Of
Mr. Ellison would mean practically ex-
haustion. Should speculation again be at
tracted to cotton through revlving trade
or bad crop advices. the situation will com
mand more attention than IL now does
when the support to prices comes in Amer
lea at least entirely from the actual de-
mand from the spindles.

A NEW LINE OF ATTACK.

Grain Shippers Renew Their Fight
Against the Railroads.
Sioux CITY, Sept. 2.-When Judge
Shiras, of the federal court, put a
quietus on the actions of the Grain
Shippers association of northern Iowa
against the various railways OF the
state it was supposed that they were
settled for good. But the association
has bobbed up again in the fedora:
court of Sioux City with new line OF
action. Formerly 1t brought its action
under the provisions of the interstate
commerce act and it involved many
hundreds of thousand dollars. Judge
Shiras practically threw the cases out
of court by overruling the demurrer
to the answer of the defendants. Now
the shippers will fight the roads under
the antitrust act of congress, con-
tending that combination known as
the Western Freight association has
made extortionate rates contrary to
the provision of the act. The railways
have limited that the shippers likewise
have a combination for controlling
the grain traffic and will fight fire
with FIRE.

Daring Cuban Captain Dupiicate' '"0
March of Maceo.
New YORK, August 31.-A dispatch
from Havana says: The sensatlonally
victorious march of the Cubans under
Gomez and Maceo the entire length OF
the island in Martinez Campos' tlme'
has just been duplicated by Qulntln
Banderas. This negro war captain
than whom no Cuban of the colored
race, excepting only Macco, perhaps
has won greater honors in the present
struggle for independence, led l2,ooo
men from the eastern end OF the
island, where the patriots in arms are
strongest, to the western end, where
since Maceo's death, the Cuban cause
has not prospcred so we'll. These H.
600 penetrated into the provinces OF
Mantanzas, Havana and Pinar del
Rio, strengthening existing forces in
each of those provinces to such an ex-
tent that the coming winter campaign
may be expected to be even us disas-
trous for the Spanish arms as in the
time of Maceo. Banderas says the
march was effected with little or no
molestation from the Spanish troops.
MADRID, August 3l.-At a cabinet
council it was decided to summon the
next class of $4,000 reserves, $4,000 OF
whom will be sent to Cuba and $4,000
to the Philippine islands.

was committed on the Adams Company
by parties absolutely unknown at
present. A bag Of silver containing
$500 had been checked out to Express
Messenger Schroeder on the st. Louis
train leaving Burlington at 9:45 p. m.
The coin was placed on the top of the
express safe in the express Office at the

within FIVE feet of the sack it was
taken from under his very nose with
out him knowing it, and its loss was
unnoticed until some time afterwards.

ATLANTIC. Sept. 3.-John Baily, liv-
ing in Washington township, has lost
several head of cattle from Texas
fever. Some time ago Wolf & Degen
shipped lot of cattle from western
Kansas to Lewis and sold them to the
farmers. Mr.. laily was one of the
purchasers. He turned them in with
the other herd and the natives soon
became sick and many of them died.
The veterinary was sent for and pro-
nounced the disease Texas fever and
quarantined the herd. 1t is learned
that the cattle originally came from
Texas and are branded I'D" This is
the twentv-fifth place that the state
veterinary has quarantined cattle of
that brand. The disease does not
affect Texas cattle, but is fatal to the
natives.
