much trading. but at times the tone seemed materially firmer than last week. May sold at SIP early. At this point traders sold, and later the buying back of the early sold cotton carried prices up to S17 from 8.15, with the demand liberal and less selling by holders on the ad- vance. The feature of the market was the absence of liquidation noticeable around S2O for July all last week. The demand proved liberal enough to hold July at S19 most of the day and only q few sales were reported at SIS. Traders generally seem inclined to look for a further advance on a light movement this week and would not be surprised to see May worked up to 8.25 again. At Houston and New Orleans tomorrow the movement will be light and cold weather will prevent a free movement of cotton for some days to come. Should the light receipts keep up and attract speculation, prices may advance ever more than the few points generally looked for.

 Have Killed In the Philippines.

London, February 3.-Mr. Cunningham Graham. whose letters to the Saturday Review have been the leading features of that papers anti-American campaign. writes this week. saying:
 "I see MT. Senator Tell of the United States House of Elected Lords attacked England in the vilest language"
 MT. Cunningham Graham has been the Saturday Reviews perpetual mentor re- garding things American, and his con- fusing Teller with William Tell creates amusement.
 MT. Graham continues: 1T wonder how many men our dear cousins have shot in the Philippines without even the formallty of trial? If we, therefore. are assassins, what epithet belongs to our dear cousins?'
 In another article the Saturday Review continues It's denunciation of Anglo American friendship.

PARKHURST ON IMMORTALITY.
New York Reformer Breaches Third
 Sermon of His Series.

New York, February 3.-The Rev. Charles Parkhurst has preached the third of a series of sermons on Immortality"
 He complained before the service that he had received many letters of criticism on account of his previous sermons. In the Bible 1t Is taught, he asserted, that "the soul that sinneth, it shall die" Souls can not stand alone, except it be God 8 soul, he continued
 Do not forget that, so that man as man considered in his separateness is not inherentently eternal, is not inherentently immortal. If there Is at any time in him anything that deserves to be called etern- al it is because there is at that time something which the one only eternal has mysteriously possessed him of"

Murphv d Co.,. Cotton Letter.

New York. February 3.-The situation in the cotton market today was per- picking one While there was an advance of 4 points there was so little in the way of business as to afford little senti- ment even to the bull side. Advices as to the crop were simply reiteration of what has been coming to hand week after week. As to an early collapse in the movement, bull place confidence in them and the bear deride them. Never theless the extreme stagnation which dis gusts the trade has been accompanied by a remarkable show of strength. Bulls are determined and bears are reluctant to sell short and there Is generally anxie- ty about the receipts. Everything ap- parently hinges on them. The first good evidence of a small crop will be follow ed by broadening speculation inasmuch as prices are relatively low and trade conditions continues good. The poor weather interfering with receipts just how much 1t Is hard to say. The Liver pool m arket was higher and the port re- ceipts fell to 1s,Ooo against 230O0 last year.

company and the water right owners.
1t was the opinion of the members of
the committee that the necessary f1ume
and bitches would cost not more than
$30, 900, and the recommendation was
that this company be formed at once.
1t was upon this representation that
the stockholders decided to ask the
committee to work upon the plan for
two months, when another meeting will
be held for the purpose of hearing the
supplemental report.
Many stockholders of the company.
among them some of the largest and
most influential, have already agreed to
the advancing of the necessary funds
for the purpose of arranging the water
company proposition, and not only
have Castle & Cooks made this agree
ment but have signified their readiness
to hold onto the agency in the event
of there being such a satisfactory ar
rangement for the floating of the COM
pany out of debt. Owing to the expert
opinion on the water from the wells
being delayed there was no report on
this feature by the members of the
committee
