Murphy & Co.'s Qnc) Cotton Letter


 NEW YORK, April Notwithstanding the rather liberal movemen expected for today, Liverpool responded to closing de cline of Saturday by actual advance in the near positions while the more distant options unchanged and neglected. There was a tendency among some in the local trade to view the Liverpool situation with suspicion the ground that the advance was probably the result of manipulation from thls side. This explanation was not considered plausible, however in consideration of the strong posi- tion of spots in that market, which reported sales of 2 900 bales at an advance of 32, Sd for middling The early estimates for to- days port receipts were ooo against Ill., 7o4 last week and I5374 last year. from which 1t will he observed that while com pairing favorably with last year. the move ment promises to be somewhat in excess Of bull expectations. The strength at Liverpool was not to be overlooked and the local mar ket opened at an advance of practically ST9 points on active months. Considerable long cotton was liquidated on the advance but the market readily absorbed offerings. Little news of importance developed. Southern reports generally reflected favorable weather and pro- gress with crop preparations during the past week. In view of the strong position in the market of the current crop. however, reports of this character are almost entirely neglected

H. & B. Beers Cotton Letter.

lSpeClal 10 The AdVeftlBorf
 NEW ORLEANS. April 7.-Liverpno1 advices were more favorable than looked for. conse- quenty our market opened 949 points higher, declined 3q4 points later on longs realizing, became steadier subsequently, the firm ness of spots and light receipts, closing at a net gain of points on the day. The port and interior receipts continue very small and it is claimed by those we'll posted that 1t will take three four days more before the rail- roads in the Gulf States will have their lines in normal condition. The semi-weekly In terior receipts estimated at about | 5 900, against 29 900 last year and 95. 900 year be- fore last. Manchester cables say that the re- cent sharp advance during the past week para lyzed business in the cloth market reducing transactions to minimum proportions. Buy CTS were not disposed to follow the upward movement. while producers were unable to offer any concession. There was a continued demand from India and some sale to China, but the situation was unsatisfactory. An i'm mense amount of liquidation has taken place during the past three days: in the face of the very small movement and the firmness of spots. however 1t seems as if the cents level is not attractive to outsiders, who. for the present refuse to follow the advance further. If any new features should transpre in the situation there may be an incentive for re newed speculative buying. The future course of values will be ruled principally by receipts.

Mayor A H. Emanuel of Tombstone was an arrival on yesterdays train from Tombstone to attend the meet ing of the Republican central com mittee which was in session at the office of S. K Williams last even ing.
 MT. Emanuel is pioneer of Arizona and up 10 a short time ago was clerk of the district court of Cochise county. He has been the mayor of Tombstone for the past six years, and that his administration has met with the ap- proval of the people is evidenced by the fact that at the last election dem ocrats and republicans endorsed him uel. who exchange felicitations over the telephone between Bisbee and Tombstone. congratulated each othe. in person yesterday and when the Review reporter left them, these two officials had their heads together, in discussion of municipal ownership or public utilities.
 MT. Emanuel says the receipts Of the city of Tombstone have more than trebled during the past eight months and that the expense or their city gov ernment amounts to sS5 per month that is in salaries composed of the following items: Chief of police. $50; city clerk. s15; chief of fire depart ment. s1O. and street commissioner, $10.

 MT. Emanuel stated that at the last general election Tombstone cast 167 votes but he was certain there would be no less than 400 at the next cleo tion in November.

VERNON L. CLARK OF PHOENIX THINKS EVERY CITY IN ARI- IONA SHOULD SEND A
 DELEGATION TO LOS
AVG FLIES


 Vernon l.. Clark, who is chairman of the local committee that is arrang- ing for the meeting to be held in Los Angeles has written to Epes Randolph of Los Angeles asking him to advise him of the latest developments in the situation there. He requests that if possible Colonel Randolph let him know when the meeting will probably be held.
 Speaking yesterday afternoon of the enthusiasm that is being displayed throughout the territory. MT Clark said that as far as individuals go the movement is receiving very strong sup polt and the indications of a large gathering to meet the four United States senators is becoming more posi- tive all the time.
 T believe the matter would De much more effective" said Mir. Clark. If more of the cities of the territory would call public meetings and ap- point committees to take charge of the work.
 and appointed a number of the ener- getic citizens of that place who will make an effort to be at the meeting
 
 the matter in the right way, and Yuma has set an example that every other city should follow.
 Such towns as Prescott. Bisbee and Tucson, should each of them have public meetings and select men who have the time and means to go to Los Angeles and help the movement along. They are just as eager for If hn nf II they lack the inclination tC make united effort.
 If every city in the territory would have big public rally and se- lect a committee to represent them atL os Angeles it would have mucn weight with the senators. It would show them that the people are fully aroused to the importance of the sit uation, and eager to do everything in their power to bring us admission.
 T expect to hear in a few days from Colonel Randolph and he may be able to tell us when the meeting in Los Angeles will be held. As soon as the date is fixed we will be able to do more effective work. A large num- Der are holding back because the date has not been set and they think that there is still plenty of time in which to get ready"
 The committee is certain that the meeting in Los Angeles will prove one of the most effective moves that could be made. and urges that every section of the territory join hands in arous- ing the people to the fact that the good done will depend largely upon the manner in which the matter is taken up.
 The territorial press is requested to lay before It's readers the importance of advocating public meetings to se- feet delegates to attend the meeting. There is no reason why every town and city in Arizona should not have a delegation of one or more members at the conference between four lead ing United States senators and the people of this territory.
