New Orleans Cotton Market.

New Orleans, November 12-There was a fairly good movement in spot cotton to- day under the influence of the furth her advance in contract values, and buyers more inclination to trade upon the basis of factors upset level of values The sales accordingly footed up totals of 37OO bales of spots and 1500 bales to arrive. Quotations unchanged. Only a moder- ate amount of trading was indulged in today In the contract market. The first call figures showed a decline of to 3 points after which the market advanced to points in sympathy with the me- tropolis and fell back to 8 points un- der slight pressure by the shorts Dur ing the latter part of the day the market showed some animation. New York be- came quite free buyer in the local field, and the support thereby afforded, coupled with the fact that Houston Is again billed for comparatively light re- ceipts, served to send prices once more on the upgrade. the advance covering a range of to points before halt was called by the turning-in of certain small profits on the long side. Toward the end of the day the market eased of again and closed finally at net gains as com pared to yesterdays range of 4 to 6 points on the several positions.

ALL SHOULD BE ADMITTED.


in doubling frame of mind, prints
one of the strongest appeals ever
presented for the admission of the
various territories. In fact, its
editorial fits the situation com
pletely and if it could be read by
the president, it would probably
prove very effective. The editor
ial in the NewS is as follows, the
caption being "Why Will He Re-
main Silent?"
'It is to be regretted that Presi
dent Roosevelt, who has shown
himself fearless and vigorous in
other matters, should have been
persuaded to make in his message
to congress no recommendation
touching the efforts of New Mexi'
co and other growing territories
to be admitted to the Union OF
states, 1t is understood that al
most all the applicants have in
their citizenship democratic ma
jorities, and this fact makes it ap-
pear that the president has been
persuaded to yield in this matter
to the demands Of party eXpcd-
iency. AS he has not yielded to
the demands of the party bosses
in other matters, it was hoped that
he might prove quite strenuous
enough to hold hard for justice
even on the old line upon which
so many of their predecessors have
permitted their party feelings to
control them. 1t seems, however,
from the reports that he has yield
cd at least to some extent, and will
leave a republican congressofsect ID

<flbdy q report has been cir
caiated by republican officeholders
in New Mexico to the effect that
people object to statehood because
of the extra expense sure to come
of it. They claim that the people
are satisfied to remain as they are;
that the general government is
paying the administration ex-
penses, and that the people are
unwilling to raise their taxes to
support state government when
they have practically all the privi-
leges of statehood except the name.
All this is vigorously denied by |
many of the citizens. Enthusiastic
statehood conventions are being
held almost daily and the move
ment may be said to be general.
OF course there are in these meet
ings some men who are quite ready
to develop into candidates as soon
as change comes by which the
republican "in" is set aside by con-
gress in order to give the demo-
cratic "out" a chance at the polls.
But that large majority of the
people favor statehood there can
be no question.

sible it is made clear that the peo-
pie appreciate above all monetary
considerations the priceless bene

Algodones Grant ,ylde open.

A telegram dated at Yuma, March IS, has the following about the Algo- dones land grant: "The government land consisting of what is known as the Algodones land grant, situated in the Colorado river valley, between Yuma and the Mexican line, was to- day thrown open for settlement. About one hundred and twenty-five filings were made here today before Probate Judge A. Frank and District Clerk C. H Brinley, aud numb per of claimants went to Tucson to deal directly with the land department
 Most of the filings made today cover unimproved lands, as the resi- dent settlers in the valley have been given the prior right to file on their claims any time within six months.
 1 his tract of land extends from the town of Yuma down the river for twenty-two miles, and embraces S0,000 acres, of which 30000 acres, are annu- ally inundated by the overflow waters from the Colorado river. There are three canals now in use for the irriga- tion of this land, with the capacity of irrigating between thirty and forty thousand acres.
 "rhe final opening of this land gives a feeling of relief to this section of the country. For many years both the Algodones company and the gov ernment were claimants of the land until May, 1899, when the supreme court decided in favor of the govern ment, since which time there has been inpatient delay in opening the land for settlement. The citizens, as well as the ranchers in the valley, are now very hopeful for the future.

La Nina Colorado Property.

M the erection of brick furnace and the work connected with silver lead smelting plant, at La Nina Co- lorada, operated by the British Gold Mining O., of Mexico, eighteen miles from Matspe, and thought a short ac- count of my trip might be of interest to your readers.
 On arrival at the mine l was met and welcomed by the superintendent MT. A. l.. Waters who afterwards in- troduced me to the several members of his staff.
 The following day, on the super intendent's order l was shown through the entire underground workings by the surveyor MT. Llewelyn Reynolds who is also assayer for the company.
 The smelting plant consists Of forty-ton water jacket, steam conden- ser, blast furnace made by the Colo rado Iron Works and contains all the latest Improvements and water saving devices. After had put in the lead crucible to this furnace 1 was put on to the building of the cupe furnace. This is a double English cupel furnace twenty-four feet long, five feet seven inches wide, and seven feet high to base of stack, containing double ire box, two bullion chambers and dust chambers, having in all eight fire brick arches of various sizes and dim ensions. The lead bullion from the blast furnace which has capacity of 1000 pounds per 24 hours and is oper- atel by three shifts of men working eight.hour shifts. The lead oxide tlitharge) is produced in a liquate form and Is used in the smelting furnace as fluy, the silver being re- fined and shipped in bars. This and the building of an assay furnace com pleted my work. In all l spent six weeks at the camp.
 Of Mir. Waters staff the majority are Americans with whom of course l was quite at home, especially as one of them who is master mechanic MT Ed. Arhelger) is a friend of mine of twenty years standing and an old Globe, Ariz, pioneer.
 Mir. Greenlee the day foreman Of the blast furnace is Texas native aud therefore has large stock of very interesting and hair raising cowboy anecdotes.
 MT. Lou Snyder, Missourian, is a ,lly good fellow, and an ex-so.dier aud Indian fighter.
 Mir. Reynolds, whom have men, io before as assayer and surveyor 10 the company, is very busy man in his dual capacity, but has always time to show everybody that courtesy aud bonhomie for which he is noted.
 Mir. D. H. Lawrence, who is an Aus tralian born and much travelled man is in charge of the cupellation process. His anecdotes of travel in all countries from New Zealand to Alaska are high ly interesting But the Kangaroo man was ever noted for very descrip. tive re influences
 MT. A. Parodi, who is Mexican born. is secretary, accountant aud inter preter and in this latter role his ser vices are often in request hy the grin goes who need his services in making themselves understood. MT. Parodi isl, cal police court judge and can do anything he likes, from sending up man for six months to shooting special pet hog weighing 100 pounds, wh ch happens to show in camp, and this without tear in his eye.

Roers Likely to Surrender.

Negotiations are pending between Lord
Kitchener and Gen. Botha, commander in
chief OF the Boer forces, for the surrender
of the latter The British have offered
conciliatory terms, which are said to
satisfy Botha, but he wishes to consult
DeWet, Steyn, Delarey and other leaders
before yielding. 1t is unlikely that the
more desperate OF the Beers will counte-
nance surrender. II Botha gives up, II
will mean the beginning of the end. The
recent incursion OF the Beers into Cape
Colony not only proved futile in results,
but indicated that they could not hope 10
arouse the Cape Dutch to rebellion, which
was the only straw left to the cause.
