Cotton Letter

By leased wire to T. G. Hewlett, agent.
 While the Liverpool cables showed some advance during our two holidays, the ex- tent, as well as amount of spot sales, were disappointing to our local operators.
 We opened below the closing prices on repeated damage stories from Texas; prices gained to points, but a part Of that was again lost, and the market ruled dull, with but little business. While con- siderable damage has occurred from the heavy rains and floods in Texas, it is not improbable that this is exaggerated by many Elsewhere in crop accounts they are fairly good and the Washington week. ly report so shows it.

Financial

New York, July 1.-The Commercial Ad- vertiser's London financial caDlegram says:
 The markets here were steady and quiet today, with Americans the leading feature. The market however, was narrow, though firm until New York prices were received, whereupon 1t became buoyant and the close was at the best. Briskness was confined to few stocks, St. Paul, Union Pacific, Northern Pacific common, Southern and Atchison preferred The feeling here is that the stocks may be high enough but the glut of dividends in the United States is so great owing to the purchase of Euro pean holders that investment pressure, it is believed, may go much further.
 Money was high despite the distribution of the consolidated dividend as tomorrows s big payments must be made on the treas- ury bills and the orders of the London council loan Gold to the amount of 55 900 in bars was bought by the bank and 622 ,0o0 in eagles. Fifty thousand pounds arrived from Australia. The bank is paying 77s. 91zd. The weeks influx was 1735 ,000 Paris, 27s; Berlin, 3%.

GOV. HOGG'S IDEA.
He Says That W. j. Bryan Will Be
the Next President

New York, July 7--Former Governor
HOgg of Texas is the lion Of the hour in
New York political circles His speech
in Tammany hall created a. decided SEN

gave it to the Tammany braves pretty
straight, and they seemed to be with him

down by the pOrtly Texan
Mr.. HOgg has been the recipient Of nu-
merous messages of congratulation, and
a levee in the Waldorf-Astoria, where he
is sOjOurning temporarily.
When questioned about his speech in
the Tammany Wigwam on the Fourth,
Mr. HOgg said:
I'm for Bryan in Texas, and I am for
him just earnestly in New York The
locality in which L speak or the character
of the audience would not prevent me
from standing up for Bryan our stand

next president of the United States"
How about Augustus Van Wyck, gov
ernOr?' was suggested.
Judge Van WyclS is a good Democrat"
he replied. and he will be for Bryan in
tial boom for Mr.. Van Wyck, 1 do not
think it is a serious proposition. Our Tam
many friends are for Bryan, as they dem
onstrated, and do not believe it Will be
possible to fix up any other combination,
even here in the east
Did you set out Intentionally to STAN
pede the Tammany meeting for Bryan"
ooh, no." said Mr.. HOgg. Il had de-
clined an invitation to speak at the Tam
many meeting, but some friends in the
organization urged me at the last mo-
ment to attend the meeting, and I de-
cided to go. The chairman called on me

would make admirable running mate

discussed was Bryan and Van Wyck, and
it was agreed that the maneuVering among
the eastern Democrats might have for its
object the nomination of Judge Van Wyck

This is a free country and one Of its

Former Senator Arthur P. German OF
Maryland arrived in the city last night
and went to the Fifth Avenue hotel.
Mr.. German, who is credited with being
himself a candidate for the presidency,

effort to head off Bryan. looked tired and
had nothing to say. He remarked that
he was conducting no canvass for the
presidency and declared that he had not
