Through the efforts of Rev. J. w Preus
and others, debt of $4,000 on the property
of Our Savior's Norwegian Lutheran church
will be paid early in February. The church
was organized in 1868. The society was first

professor at the Norwegian Lutheran synod
seminary, at Hamline. He was called in
1872 and served until 1878, and was succeeded
by Rev. o. P. Vangsness, of Story City,
Iowa. Mr.. Vangsness served the congrega-

a break. the reaction was sharp and took place very easily When 1t is considered that July cotton is over 1zc below spots and August about cent below the price of spot cotton here in New York, the level of futures looks low enough to in duce short covering and bring about a steadier market. As we said yesterday, we would be inclined to cover cotton for the reaction. We are not bearish at SEC for August as we were about cents but it is still a question of how much good there may be on the buying side. An ad vance of 20 or D points may be all the market can stand.
 There is an enormous long interest. The bull party at New Orleans has made money this year and are giving out that they are still heavily long and COT ETlitted to the bull side. This means a contest between holders of spot cotton and the crowd there. With good weather and selling by holders of futures it may not be so easy to put up prices later in the year, but for the moment we would cover shorts, and believe cotton is a purchase on breaks, at least for an advance from today's level August picked up around SEC will not go far against the buyer.

Murphy C. Co.'s Stock Letter.

New York May 1f-The principal feat ure of the stock market today was It's quiet strength Business fell off as a con- sequence of uncertainty regarding result of HazeIton convention of anthracite miners. Although there were some favor able advices from coal regions and al- though the street has no fear as to thei final result of a strike, the speculative element moved cautiously under the idea that a strike declaration would be utilized for bear attack. The rates f1r money were easier and there was much subsi- dence of anxiety as to the monetary sit uation but this failed to have full influ- ence because of apprehension that unfa- yorable coal labor developments might lead to fresh conservatism on the part Of local banks After a fairly strong open ing the speculative ruled steady. In the early afternoon a small spasm of weak ness was suffered but there was quick recovery and renewed bull aggression In late dealings. The most active stock on the list was Union Pacific. It failed at the start to respond fully to the strength shown in the London market. but subse- quently advanced a point above last nights close and ended to the best prices of the day.
