once of Tho Post,

A fairly good Liverpool market and con-
tinued hot dry weather in Texas gave the
bulls the pull and prices were advanced sew
eral points.
Trade was comparatively light, but con-
siderable activity marked the session. real
izing by longs being principal feature.
which had a tendency to somewhat Offset the
extreme bulish crop reports from Texas, the
weather chart showing not egn OF rain in
any part OF the State.
The sentiment is growing more bullsh
every day as the drouth continues. REPORTS
OF the damage already done are exceedingly
discouraging to the bear crowd and they are
now beginning TO realize that few more
days OF hct dry winds will servo to wreck
any hopes they may have TO lower prices.
From many sections reports are being
ceived which state that the plant is alrAt
lifeless and that the half growL bolls are

Bad Condition of Green Ridge Bridge.

Injured-of1cers Elected.

The bridge crossing the river at
Green Ridge street is seriously in need
of visit from the street commission
er and his workmen. 1t is in an un-
safe condition, as well as filthy with
the accumulations of mud uponG the
drive way which is also used by pc
destrans.
The approaches to the bridge are all
most wholly without protection. and
1t would be an easy matter for any
one to tumble off Of the abutment
walls. The guard rails along the side
are also in bad shape, IN some places
entirely removed and any person tun-
lucky enough to fall would plunge
headlong into the river.
