advices were more favorable than ex-
pected, in consequence of large Cont
mental buying, due to the strength of
Southern markets. Our market in
sympathy opened to 10 higher, de-
clined to 8 later on realizing, but
subsequently reacted on the light
New Orleans estimate and the firm
ness of spots, closing to s higher on
old crop months, and 4 to 8 on new.
The semi-weekly interior statement
shows that the receipts were $4,000
against $4,000 last year and the loss in
stock was $4,000 this year against
1000 last year. Sentiment continues
very bullish and buyers are in evil
Gence on all breaks. Higher values
are expected by the majority of oper-
ators, and as long as purchasers of
spots are willing to pay present prices
the market will rule firm. We advise
buying only new crop months on
weak periods, owing to the heavy dis
counts.

firm. Prices advanced Lice on all
grades below middling fair, carrying
middling to 9%c.

mood and the first figures showed adj

of 10 points, and here the market stood
still. Realizing sales caused a sag
from the top and before the noon hour
the reaction had wiped out all gains
and the market was about Tuesdays

came forward and the entire list soon
moved up to the opening level. the

Hubbard Bros. & Co.'s Cotton Letter

New York, April 30.-The sudden and
unexpected advance in Liverpool was
due to the Continental and Egyptian
buying, together with the closing of a
quantity of cotton sold to English
spinners under the new system they
have of fixing the price they shall pay
for cotton they have taken. This adj
vance met a large amount of realizing
orders in both markets under which
the advance was lost in Liverpool and
ours quickly declined below the clos
ing quotations. New crop deliveries
have been strong all day, the sum
mary of the weekly crop report not
reading at all like the summary pub
hshed yesterday. After the posting
of the New Orleans estimate for to-
morrow the market recovered the
greater portion of the advance on To-
cal covering. Liverpool is expected to
be higher again tomorrow. Old time
bulls were the largest sellers during
the morning. The market has become
more of a public one than for some
time

THE HOUSE.

Washington, March 20.-The House to. day made very slow progress on the river
 and harbor bill, disposing of only thirty pages and leaving fifty pages still to bt considered. The river and harbor com. mittee again today succeeded in defeating every, amendment offered. MT. Bel. latny (N. O. during the day took oc. casion to denouhce the Crufnpackei proposition to investigate Southern cleo. ton laws as designed to stir up sectional
 strife. He appealed to the conservative representations to defeat the resolution.
 Several minor committee amendments
 were adopted.
 MT. Robertson Ga.) offered an amend
 nent to appropriate $2.60o.00e for the im-
 provement of Havana hafbor.
 MT. Burton, in charge of the bill. in- mediately made a point of order against the amendment. MT. Richardson con- relieve the depression sad to exist in Cuba, and in addition, would do much toward freeing our southern coast from the danger of yellow fever infection from Cuban ports. He thought the expendi- ture of this sum would help Cuba much more at this time than @ twenty per cent reduction on the products entering United States ports.
 The amendment was ruled out on the point of order.
 Mir. Cooper (Texas) offered an amend ment to increase the appropriation for Sabine Lake. Texas, from $79, 900 to $150.- 900 and urged it's adoption on account of the enormous development fin the vicinity of Beaumont. He made glowing speech predicting a wonderful future for this region. The amendment was lost. 37 to 6l.
 Mir. Candler (Miss.) also made fer vent. but unsuccessful appeal for the im- provement of the Tombigbee in his State. His speech established him as a not un. worthy successor of Private" John Allen, who long enjoyed the reputation of the wit of the house"
 Mir. Bellamy (N. CD offered an amend ment to appropriate s250.o0o for the Cape Fear River above Wilmington. It was lost, 31 to 61. In speaking to the amend ment. Mir. Bellamy referred briefly to the prospective investigation of Southern election laws. deprecating 1t as an at- tempt to revive sectional strife and III feeling The South. he said. had reach- ed a solution of It's differences after many years, when this proposition was ad- vanced which would undo all that had been accomplished toward establishing peace and prosperity.
 The South, he said, was sick and tired of sectional strife. Her people loved the Union and were proud of its honor and He asserted that for sinister purposes some members of the other side were again sowing the seeds of discord and he appealed 10 the con- fair minded men of the Repub- lican party to vote down a proposition fraught with so much evil to the South.
 Several other amendments for appro- priations for rivers in Kentucky and Tennessee were voted down. After com pleting thirty additional pages of the bill the House. at 5:l5 p. m, adjourned.

HERESY IS ALLEGED
CHARGES AaAINsT REV. GRAN.
 WILLIE LoUTHER D. D.
He ts Accused Dy the Nstho4ist Con- ference of Disseminating Doctrines Contrary cad Subversfvs of ths
 Confsesion of Faith.

McPherson. Kas., March 2o-Rev. Granville Louthar. D. D.. pastor of q local church. was served with papers at a Methodist Episcopal ccnfersncs here today charging him with heresy and set- ting forth that he would be tried at Arkansas City. Kas., March 2s.
 Rev. Mir. Louther. who is . member of the Southwest Methodist cenferepce. is charged with being guilty of 'dissemi- mating doctrines contrary and subversive of the doctrines of the Methodist Episco- pal Church." and 1t ts alleged that he is "atheistic and evolutiouistic."
 Rev. Mir. Louthsr Is charged with mak- ing and teaching the following doctrines in violation of the confession of faith:
 ''That the serpent who talked to Eve was a man, one of the race to which she and Adam belonged, that he had not come into a consciousness of God. there fore was classed with the beasts, ana that there were other inhabitants or members of the race, if not, how dtd Cain find his wife in the land of Nod. where none of Adams children except Cain had kone, if not. whence came the daughters of men whom the sons of God took for their wives?
 That Adam and Eve. as first created. had no perception of their obligations of obedience; that in eating of the fruit of the tree of good and evil they had done nothing except what others about them were doing and that they themselves had formerly done. that Is. like beasts. but they had higher vision of spiritual things than formerly and consequently they felt guilt.
 That Christ died for man to show men how to die for man; that his willingness to die for man should be multiplied by exactly the number of disciples of Christ and that the atonement can never be completed until this idea pervails."
 Rev.. Mir. Louther has been president of the Kansas State Holiness Association for years. He says that lack of free dom for the soul ts like conlpfessing q woman's waist in corsets to compel 1t to grow according to certain fashionable ideal.
