New York, May S.-Hubbard Bros & Co,
say OF cotton: Business has been
very meager during the forenoon. The
good sales in Liverpool with the advance
in futures. though slight, indicated a con-
tinuance of legitimate demands for cot
ton and the trade here recognizes the dan
ger of anticipating lower prices in our
market. Reports from FAN river are of
a glowing nature. Although there is lit
tie disposition TO believe in lower prices
here speculation is very dull due in a
measure to the decline in the stock mar
ket. The market has been very steady
during the afternoon, with continued dull
ness. The fear of an adverse bureau re-
port on the 10th inst holds prices.

RULE OF CUBA
Principle OF self-Governmcnt Main
tanned i'm a Plan Evolved by
President Mckinley.

Washington, July 81. President Nc
Kinley's plan for the government of
Cuba is embraced in the following:
A civil governor for the Island of Cuba
Il Legislative bodies composed entirely of
natives, their enactments to be subject to
the approval of the governor.
Military occupation of Cuba by the forces
of this government to be reduced to a
minimum
All municipal offices, including the post
offices and customs bureaus, to be filled by
natives
The appointment of chief justice to
whom appeals can be made
The governor and chief justice to vir-s
tually constitute de facto government.
The status of Cuba to be precisely iden-
teal with that of territory after con-
gress has passed an ena bling act admitting
such territory to statehood, pending the
submitting of the constitution to the peo-
pie.
This form of military and civil gov
eminent as evolved by President Nc
Kinley partakes strongly of home rule.
All suggestions to congress for neces-
sary legislation to carry out this
scheme have been practically deter
mined upon and they will be outlined
in the presidents message to congress,
unless a change in conditions should
| make it necessary to modify the plan.

The Olde.t Of the Pope..

Leo XIII. bids fair to be the oldest
sof the popes. The scars of the operation
performed by DR.. Mazzoni on the aged
pontiff are said to have thoroughly dis
appeared. Three weeks ago, when the
physicians removed the last bandages,
the pope said jokingly to his doctor:
snow, DR.. Mazzoni, how many years
of life can you promise me?" 7 be-
lieve confidently" replied the physi-
elm, shat your holiness will live to be
over 1os.'' mo, no. answered the
pope, you are stretching my years a
little too far" The Roman correspond
.ent of the Neue Wiener Tagblatt, how
ever, who reports this chat between pa
4tient and doctor, thinks that the doctor
might prove true prophet. and Leo
XIII. exhibits signs of such extraordi-
nary mental vigor, and his memory
seems absolutely unimpaired.

Bold Robbery.

Late at night the Milwaukee depot
at Faribault was entered by four
masked men who covered the night op-
orator, Ed. Erickson, with revolvers.
He was making out his reports when
he was startled by a revolver held at
his head from the outside through the
window by one of the robbers, who
told him to hold up his hands, which
order was complied with. In the
meantime three other men entered the
Office door and proceeded to rob the
money drawer, from which they Sc
cured $37.19. They also had intended
to rob the safe, as they were well sup
piled with tools for that kind of work,
but were probably frightened away.
After the money was secured from the
cash drawer the robbers locked the OBJ
orator in box car. A little later a
freight train came in and the conductor
soon saw that things were wrong.
After searching for short time the
operator was found.
