on the pension roll. We have to-day
on the roll names of good many who
applied in 1888, 1898 and 1900, and in
tho last instance they found it y
diflicul: to make tho necessary proof;
in fact, parties heretofore on the pom

proof, are to-day unable to secure wit
nesses as required by the law and rules

L wish to call your attention to tho
fact that the appropriation of $50 for
stationery and stamps is totally INSULT
cient. An examination Of any of the
reports for the last eight or ten years
will show that this expenditure has
to from three to five hun
fred dollars. Of course under that
provision of the law which allows the
State board to draw on the ponsion
pund for any necessary expenses in
the same, a situation has
been relieved which otherwise would
stop this work entirely.

COTTON MARKETS.

NEW YORK, Sept. 9.-The cotton mar
ket opened steady with prices 1g5 points
higher, this in sympathy with t1rmness
in the English market The early weather
reports and the weather forecast were
sized up as favorable to the crop. while
receipts We're nothing short of prodiSous.
Following the call general buying Of a
substantial sort carried prices quite
steadily upward until January reached
reached SCI, at which level those traders
who had been fortunate enough to go
long market at the close last night sold
for profits. A Slight reaction occurred,
but the undertone remained very steady.
The commission houses all had liberal
buying orders, and the late cables from
Liverpool were bulliSh. The South and
Wall Street were buyers. Then came the
weekly crop weather report from Wash
ington, and failed to note the expected
general improvement in the crop condi-
ton, but rather told of continuation of
the short yield in Texas and other dis
tricts. The market for the balance Of
the session tended upward on general
public buying, with January up TO S.3l
and on revous demand from the shorts.
There were reports of too much rain In
Georgia and portions of Alabama, the
complaint being that open cotton was
damaged and discolored. The market
closed very steady at about the top of
the day, a net advance of 12@l6 points
Total sales estimated at 100000 bales.

COTTON LETTER.
New York, Sept. 9, 19l

New York, Sept. 9, 1902.
Since the publication OF the monthly
report of the United States Government
on the cotton crop the most vigorous, sub
tie and insiduous efforts have been made
TO nullify the ERECT OF that report and
unGuIy depreSs the value OF cotton. These
efforts have emanated Tor the most part
from brokers and manipulators Identified
with concerns whose business 1t is to
purchase cotton in me south 1or export,
We're intended to depreclate the price OF
spot cotton in the Souta by artlhclally
depressing futures in New York. They
have had the audacity to attempt to dis
credit no less an authority than the
United States Government. They have
circulated false reports that | was selling
out the cotton which nave bought, and
acting in bad faith toward the people Of
the South by advising them to buy while
l was selling. They have endeavored to
stampede the market by emphasizing the
fact that receipts are large, While it is
we'll known that large receipts early in
the season are invariably indicative OF
small and drouSht-shortened crop. The
their efforts have failed, and I now feel
confident that a fresh advance is iulpend-
ing. which will probably carry prices
much nearer to nine cents than they have
lions, with regard to the cotton situa
ton hold to be self evident. The indi-
Gated crop according to all accepted aU-
t tn, is decidedly less than last year:
ell accepted authorities is 11,250, goo bales
The certificated stock Of cotton in New
York available for delivery on contract is
this eveninly only 1900 bales. Futures
in New York at present prices are no
higher than the price OF middling cotton
In most all the Southern markets tribu-
tary to New York, while the cost of
bringing such cotton to New York and de-
livering it on contract is not less than
half a cent per pound. The short inter-
est is enormous, and spnners are practi-
cally bare of stock for their immediate
requirements. The consumption of South
ern mills. chiefly located in the States of
Virginia, North Carolina, South Carolina
and Georgia, for the current year will not
be less than two million bales. The pro-
duction Of the States III which these mills
are located will be only about $500. 900
bales. The difference OF 100000 bales is
much less than was last year exported
from the port OF Savannah alone The
reIa tion of tho New York market to the
Southsrn market and the trade at large
IS becoming more and more artificial each
year and those who permit themselves
10 be short in the New York market are.
in nv opinion. making serious mistake.
The Southern holder and producer will do
we'll to disregard the. manipulated fluc-
nations of an artificial market. and gov
arning himself by the commercial law
of s,,nplvI and demand is justified in de-
,randinc and receiving at least nine
cents per pound for this years crop Of
