Mining men who have exam. ined 1t say that with development the property will some day get into the same class with the United Verde and Bisbee mines. The great draw back which the Hercules company experienced since it began work about a year ago, was scarcity of water. But only last week while run ning crosscut ou the 250 foot level a yein of water was struck that will make pumping on the lower levels a necessity hereafter.

PROFIT TAKING IN

 We'll Threshed Out.
TRADING ON LARGE SCALE

New York, March 2.-The cotton mar ket opened steady, with prices unchanged to points lower and thereafter was ex- cited with weak undertone under altern- ative waves of heavy general selling and light room covering or a profit-taking nature. On the decline, Europe and the west sold large lines of near months, while the south bought small of July in the hope of a reaction. While not dis turbed as to the ultimate ruling of prices, the bear faction was inclined to take profits around S.75 for May The influ- ence working together toward strength ening bear convictions were very weak Liverpool cables reported that southern spot markets had given way to the re- cent heavy declines in speculative mar kets and claims that receipts for the coming week would exceed the average. Operations were on a large scale and of d very sweeping nature. Nevertheless the more thoughtful traders refused to over sell, keeping in mind the fact that the long interest had been well thrashed out by the late severe reaction, while there had unquestionably been a large short in- terest accumulated which would be in- fiuenced readily by anything in the way of bull developments.

Lee x Co.'S Cotton Letter by Private
 Wire to H. D. Cothran & Co.,.
 New York, March 2.-There was no change in the legitimate situation and values reached a new low level towards the close of the week, May selling down to S.76 today One thing noticeable, and to which we called attention in our let ter of last week, Is the fact that 1t re- quires constant buying to hold any ad- vance. The talk and fear of possible ma nipulation in March has something to do with this, but the main reason for the quick decline from each advance Is the generally bearish surroundings which we have commented upon for some time, The same interests that ran the apparent ly successful squeeze in January are at work again In the March, but so far their maneouyers have been somewhat differ ent Instead of trying to help along an advance at this time their object seems to be to force out all scattered holders first and in this they are succeeding ad- mfrably. On Thursday they sent out large number of deliverery notices again, estimated at fully c5O00 bales, which caused much selling and a sharp decline, but on the break they bought fully as much March, thus retaining possession of the cotton. It Is our opinion, how ever, they are trying to work out what must now be a very expensive proposi- tion and becoming more so right along. When they began the January deal the stock of cotton here was about 10000 bales, but now it is around 100000 bales, and they own the bulk of 1t. At the be- ginning of this week 1t was thought they were short as much or more March against 1t, and probably at prices not much above the cost of, the common, with the charges for carrying it figured at about 5000 per day, and which has been accommodating since January. To over come this they are compelled to cover their March sales on the weak spots, which 1t appears they are doing. and either stand long on the spot cotton until a demand springs up for 1t, which will enable them to obtain higher prices or hedge with sales for May or some later months on a bulge.

New Orleans Cotton Market.

New Orleans, March 2.-The position of the market for spot cotton is about the same as has been outlined in these re- views during the past few days-that is, prices are lower, but otherwise there has been on change. Every influence Is just now at work In the interest of the buy ing element and factors find the ground slipping away from beneath them with out being able to check the slide. Prices are steadily declining on the other side and orders for export lists cabled to this market are so hampered with such limi- tations that execution usually hangs upon the acquiescence of the factor. Buyers. as a rule. sought the staple today at a decline of 1sc from yesterdays figures and managed to do some little trading upon very nearly that basis The off, cial quotations, however, place the mar ket easy at a reduction of 1-16c on all grades. The sales reported were 275O bales of spots, including POO bales sold on f. o. b. terms, and 120o bales to arrive
 The market for contracts was compar- atively active today and during the short hours of the forenoon nearly all months received share of attention. The gen eral position was one of heaviness so far as prices were concerned, though the downward course of values was frequent ly interrupted by mild upward fuctua- tions resulting from purchasing fiurries, either to cover Its profits or stop losses. Liverpool led off by reporting a decline of 3-32d on spots, while deliveries in the England market were lower by 3-64d to 4-64d for this crop and 1-64d to 2-64d for the next. New Orleans opened 5 to points down, in response to the Liverpool los and the weak condition of local spots fluctuated considerably throughout the day, but with a distinct tendency toward a reduced level of values to the end that the day finally showed net declines of to F points.
