COTTON SHORTS

Market Opened Firm With
Prices a Little Better
BEARS WERE VERY UNEASY
Bureau Report Proved About a Stand
off, With the Tendency, If Any
thing Rather Against the
crop-Prices Sensitive.

New York. August 1.-THE cotton
market opened quiet and firm with
prices unchanged to points higher in
sympathy with a letter ruling OF the
English market then due on the New
York closing of yesterday. Fear that
port might not be favorable helped to
disturb the bear element. Prices set
tied back to last nights bids after the
call and trading dropped OF to scat
tering unsatisfactory business in which
the scalpers took the nominal lead. Re-
ceipts were only moderate and further
large clearances for exports from the
New York stock were bulletined. The
regular weather map from washington
gave high temperatures over the west
ern belt again and there were numerous
crop complaints from various parts OF
the cotton country; toward midday
prices kept within point or two of the
final bids of last night.
The bureau report proved about a
standoff with the tendency. II anything,
rather against the crop. Yet the market
was in no way affected and prices during
the greater part of the afternoon were
around s7.65 for January. Then came a
sudden demand from prominent room
traders, believed to be for the account
of a we'll known Wall street operator.
The shorts became uneasy and soon
were scrambling for cover. Prices were
sensitive to this buying and worked up
several points, closing steady at net
advance of to points on all months
except August which was neglected and
/ point lower. Total sales estimated at
$4,000 bales well scattered through the

London, May 1s.-A dispatch to the

that st. Pierre was destroyed in the
twinkling of an eye, and that not 40 Of
the inhabitants of the city escaped.
Some of the outlying parishes of the
Island of Martinique have been inun.
dated. The whole northern portion
of the island is burning, and has been
denuded of vegetation, and is rocky
wilderness. The latest news received
here from st. Vincent, continues the
correspondent, says the number of dead
there is supposed to reach 500, tie ma
jority of whom have not been buried.
1t is reported that Fort de France,
Island OF Martinique, is threatened, con-
cludes the correspondent. and there is
frightful tension everywhere.
Successful attempts have been made
to- reach st. Pierre. Cabling from st.
Lucia, the correspondent of the Daily
Mail says the town is heap of ruins,
and dead bodies are lying all around.
FeM-ever will be recognized, so great is
the mutilation and distortion.
Search parties have found 5000
charred bodies on the site OF the cathe-
dral. All appear to have been asphyx-
lated at first. Not soul was found
alive in the whole town.

Washington, May 15.-The following
was issued from the White House dur.
ing the afternoon:
"The president has appointed COM
mittee to receive funds for the relief of
the sufferers from the recent disaster
in Martinique and st. Vincent. The
gentlemen appointed from each city
will be asked to collect and receive the
funds from their localities and neigh
borhoods as expeditiously as possible
and forward them to Hon. Cornelius N.
Bliss, treasurer of the New York COM
mittee, which committee will act as a
central distributing point for the coun-
try. The president directs all the post
masters throughout the country and re-
quests the presidents of all the national
banks to act as agents for the collec-
tion of contributions and to forward the
same at once to Mr.. Bl iss at New York.
The postmasters are also directed to re-
port to the postmaster general within
10 days any funds collected on this &C
count. The president appeals to the
public to contribute generously for the
relief of those upon whom this appall-
ing calamity has fallen, and asks that

NOTIFY POWERS,
United States Will Inform Them of the Birth
of the Cuban Republic.

Washington, May 13.-The state de-
partment has decided upon the method
it will employ to notify the world Off
cially of the birth of the new Cuban re-
public May 20. Instead of issuing a
proclamation, the department will send
identical notices to all United States
ambassadors and ministers abroad that
the military occupation by the United
States of the island has ceased on that
date, and that Tomas Estranda Palma
has been duly installed as the head of a
new government of the Island of Cuba.
There will be no invitation on our part
to the nations to recognize the new re-
public, but it is expected that they will
take notice themselves of the fact that
the United States has so recognized the
Cuban republic by sending to the
island minister resident and staff of
legation and consuls, and it is not
doubted that the example will be fol-
lowed.

Forestry Reserve Official.

Washington, May 14.-Repres1

commissioner of the general land
to ascertain whether or not ce
lands in Skagit and Snohomish
ties are to be eliminated from
Washington forest reserve and on
to settlement. Reports to this
recently reached Washington fro1
state, end have led to considef abi
speculation. Mr.. Cusnman Iearne
that on April Is Commissioner Her

tendent of forest reserve in Washing
ton, to make an examination of town
ship 50 north, ranges s, 9 and 10 east

better suited for forestry purposes O

yet been received.
When Superintendent Shelter shall
have been heard from, the general Ian,
office will convey his recommendation
to the secretary of the interior, wher
the matter will be finally acted upon
It is probable that no final action cal
be had until late in the fall. In cas-
all or part of the land is found to b

edly be restored to settlement; other
wise its present status will not be al

Washington, May 15.-Some plain
suggestions regarding American bust

copy of which has just reached the
treasury bureau of statistics.
The commercial success in the United
States, and especially of the city at
which he is located, is described by
Consul Wyndham as being due in part
"to the education which teaches the
boys independence and knowledge of
their future responsibilities, and does
not set the professions ABOVE business
as means OF gaining living.
"Athletics of all kinds are much en-
couraged in schools and universities,
but very few men continue to take part
in them after completing their educa
ton. Americans are as fond of out
door life, shooting and fishing, as are

for the statement that the Northern

The Dawson retail merchants had been
