Murnhx & co.'s cotton Lettsr.

NEW YORK, Feb 5-The feature Of the
early market was an advance Of points IN
March and to 2 for other. months. Gables
were satisfactory and much more so tnan
looked for but the great point after al was the
small receipts and despite the conflicting views
as TO the cause the fact that they are stu
showing up small compared with last year
helps prices and makes bears reluctant TO make
any effort to keep the market down. In fact
there is greater disposition generally to take
the bull side inasmuch as there Is now great,
er probability than was thought possible until
recently of making crop considerably under
the extremely high estimates March was
points higher before noon on foreign. buying.
Gables rose / point and the receipts at the
ports were %. 900. against 49, last year Just
how the trade stands on the market Is not
known. All scEts of reports are circulated on
this point The so-caled bull clique is causing
good deal of discussion. Immense Wall
street concerns are said to have combined un-
der the lead and adn4re OF small crop cham
pion with the determination Of holding on for
a long pull even II itextends into the summer.
An advance OF no less than cents is the
plan according to those who pretend to know
what IS going on behind the curtain. one re-
port has 1t that two firms holding majority
OF March contracts will take them up, having
bought March when IL was ten points below
May. The statement is made that they VIII
sell May with the intention Of delivering the
cotton they took in March.

Under Order of Court Deputies De-
molish Capitol of .'District of
Lake Nlchignn.''

Chicago, Aug. 13.-With the ruins of
the tent which he had styled the cap
itol of the District of Lake Michigan"
lying on the ground beside him, and
force of deputy sheriffs making more
complete the scene of destruction,
Capt. George Wellington streeter
Tuesday afternoon declared that he
would not leave the district which he
calls his own. "I'm here, and I'm go
ing to stay here" said Capt. Streeter,
after Deputy Sheriff Spears and five
deputies acting under him had torn
down the tent which marked the abid-
ing place of the autccrat of Streeter-
vile. The demolition of the Streeter
buildings was done in obedience to
writ of restitution issued some days
ago by Judge Chytraus in the litiga-
tion involving the Healy and Streeter
claims to the portion of the district of
Lake Michigan along Chestnut street
between Lincoln Park boulevard and
Lake Shore drive.
The litigation which preceded the is
suance of the writ has been watched
with interest by those familiar with
the history of the north shore tract.
Streeter contended in the court that
his right to possession of the tract was
superior to that of the landowners
who claimed it as accretions to their
holdings. In the hearing OF the case,
which was had before Master in Chan
Gerry Browning, evidence was sub
mitted by Streeter to show that-he had
acquired title to the land by what he
terms discovery" The jurisdiction
of the court was disputed by Capt.
Streeter and in the ruling made by
Judge Chytraus some days ago the
court expressly declared that the jur-
isdiction was complete over the prop
erty. The property in question has
been the bone of contention in more
than one contest both legal and forci-

able to rise until the king assisted
him and himself raised the arch
bishops hands from the steps of
the throne. The archbishop, who
seemed to be in faint, had to prac-
tically be carried to the altar. The in
cident created considerable excite
ment and several prelates rushed
forward to help the primate.
Prince of Wales ut Kings Feet.
The next person to pay homage to
his majesty was the prince of Wales,
who knelt until King Edward held
out his hands, which he kissed after
touching the crown as a sign of
fealty. The prince of Wales then
started to return to his seat, when
the king drew him back and put his
arms around him and kissed him.
The Queen Is Crowned.
The queen then rose and, accom-
panied by her encourage. proceeded
to the altar steps, where, under a
pail of cloth-of-gold, she was quick
ly crowned by the archbishop of
York, supported by the bishops.
She was then led to the throne be-

her enthroniZation was accomplished.
The queen bowed to King Edward,
and both walked to the altar and re-
