THE NEWS
 OF WILLIAMS

Williams, Ariz.. Aug. 2.-(speciaI correspondence of the Republican.)- Much interest was manifested here to- day at the laying of the corner stone of the new school building. The several organizations of secret societies were out en masse and presented a very ex- cellent appearance. A large crowd from the town was out and a great deaf of enthusiasm was shown. There were several addresses made and a program was carri5d out. The new building that is being erected is an addition to the old one as was intended, and not a sepa- rate building. This will give more room to the school, which was very much needed.
 Williams has been visited with s5v- eral showers the past few days, which gives a more hopeful complexion. The serious dryness of this section of the territory is causing a great many of the sheep men to drive their sheep out of this district down into the Verde val ley. As there are a great many sheep in this vicinity, it will work a hardship if there is not rain before long.
 It is pleasant to chronicle the mar riage of Ben Sw5etwood the popular proprietor Of the Monogram saloon. MT. Sweetwood is well known in Will Hams, having come here in the employ of the Saginaw and Manistee Lumber Co. in the capacity of clerk. book keep er and other responsible positions. His many friends wish him a very hap py life, as well as his very estimable bride.
 The Mack mining company is now in charge of the entire mining properties at that point of the Grand canon. The condition of affairs was very unsatis- factory there for some time and the men went without pay. but this very responsible company has paid off all indebtedness and has restored entire confidence to the employees. There have been some fourteen cars shipped to Fl Paso during the past month un- der the supervision of MT. Helme, and all has paid well. The success of this property is due very largely to the ex- cellent management of, MT. Helme There are about 90 men employed here and about 25 more were sent out today The forc7 of miners is being increased daily. Under the new management the

HIS TALK WON.
F. B. DORR.

An ungroomed man slouched up to Ed. Smith on Farnham street the other day and accosted him as follows:
 Say mister, if I was to tell you that I wanted quarter to get a square meal you'd think I wantcd it to buy whiskey, wouldn't you?"
 That's exactly what I would" re- piled Smith.
 And if I said wanted a quarter to buy whiskey, you'd say you didn't pro- pose to encourage the drink habit, wouldn't yOu?'
 That's what I'd say"
 And if I said I wanted a quarter to buy food for a starving wife and eleven children, you'd think I was liar, wouldn't you?"
 T would
 Well. say, mister. I want quarter to pay for having my mother-in-law's trunk hauled to the depot. Do I get it?''
 Smith effected a compromise by parting with a dime.-Omaha World Herald.

AN ADVANCE IN COTTON.
4 Net Rise of Nearly One Dollar a
RnIe in NcM York.


NEW YORK, March Eight hundred
thousand bales were traded in at the New
York Cotton Exchange today. and prices
moved up 25d30 points on this crop, and,
in spite of heavy realizing by Wall Street
and The outside public. retained a net ad-
vance at the close of is TO 20 points, or
about 81 a bale. The rise within ten
days has been $50 bale here and s12.50
in Liverpool. And it is all traceable to a
semi-panic among shorts and spinners in
Europe who until within a comparatively
recent period placed entire confidence in
Mr.. Henry Neills' IL 600 COO bale crop esti-
mate
The general estimates now are 5000, 600
to $500, 600 bales. Liverpool rose today 81
a bale, largely owing 10 excited buying by
the Continental trade, though Lancashire
and Egypt were also buying on a large
scale. Furthermore. the South is aiming at
l0-cent cotton. and today there was a rise
OF 1-l6c at st. Louis and Norfolk 1-Sc at
Memphis, Galveston, Augusta, and New
York. 1-SG1-4 at Charleston, 3-16 at New
Orleans and Ia at Baltimore, Wilmington,
and Mobile German houses were big
buyers for Continental account. and Wall
Street took profits on large scale at the
advance. There is still said TO be a very

The entire stock market yesterday
swung around the pivot Of the unexpected
action Of the directors Of the American
Sugar Refining Company. IL had been
known that Wednesday was not definitely
fixed as the meeting day. but no one had
expected it so early in the week. or at
least no one outside OF the inner clique.
Before noon the public announcement was
made that the meeting had been held and
thai the dividend rate had been cut TO IL
per cent for the quarter. or per cent an
nually. The market outside Of Sugar was
strong and with an advancing tendency

by q small recession. When the Sugar
announcement was made covering Of

close when again there was some reaction
from the best figures of the day. Sugar
advanced at the opening rapidly but de

CAPITAL TRACTION BUoYANT.
4 Rapid Advance in the Price of the
street Railway stock.

There was a continuance OF the rapid
advance in the price of Capital Traction
stock on the local Stock Exchange yester-
day. The quotations went up from 50 81
TO sc IS on sales of nearly 200 shares, and
the closing sale was ar 90 "a.
The squirt of Traction is causing much
comment in F Street, and the talk Of par
for the stock is heard frequently. The
session Of the exchange yesterday was
crowded with visitors. friends and holders
OF the stock.
One group Of insiders" in Capital Trac-
ton insist that this boom is due entirely
to the fine business Of the company and the
increase to be made in the dividend rate
next month. On the other hand, it is as
serted with much confidence by some that
behind these evident and ostensibe rea-
sons there is another in the expectation
of a deal with the Washington Traction
and Electric Company in the near future.
