An enthusiastic meeting Of the
Portuguese Political Club was held
at San Antonio Hall last evening,
and Portuguese orators sounded the
first note OF warning as TO the
strength they expect 10 have on
election day.
There is no doubt but that in the
future, the Portuguese citizens will
have to be taken coguiz,nce OF. Their
numbers when brought together
will have a decisive power which
will be used to promote their best
interests. Chairman Camara ap-
pointed the following committee
which with the executive committee
will canvass the city to ascertain
the names OF all young and old
Portuguese entitled 10 become

NJ e Pacheco made the finest ad-
dress OF the evening and was en-
thusiastically applauded He ap
pealed to the tenderest, feelings OF the
Portuguese, recalled the glorious
history Of their mother country ad-
vised them to always treasure in
their hearts sentiments of love and
admiration for the land of their
birth, but asked them to remember
that they could not afford to live

The port receipts. while slightly under last year. are offset by the large interior movement. Reports were received from numerous uncounted towns stating that wagon receipts much larger than last year and the prospects were for (. continuance on that scale for some time to come. It Is feared by many that the eX- pected cold might check receipts. but the opinion Is growing that this crop has been under estimated and the chances are that in creased crop estimates will soon again become current. Manchester cables state that the cloth market poor and that the Indian demand had fallen off considerably There was some demand from China at lower rates and limited to few channels. Merchants are indif ferent to placing further orders in view of the easier tendency of cotton An easier feeling was apparent today holders becoming tired waiting for that perpendicular drop in receipts which has been promised for eight weeks and which fails to materialize but in- stead the movement points to a larger crop daily. With the discouraging European textile outlook and far from satisfactory condition in America. it Is doubtful whether values can be sustained in the face of the liberal receipts unless fresh speculation is attracted to tho article
