 IRY Privatn IaaSad Wire

NEW YORK, June I5-Excitement con- tmued to prevail in the cotton future mrakets today. The Liverpool advices displayed sensa- tional strength. and the private advices from abroad indicated that the foreign situation is Identical with that here and at New Orleans. Bull interests appeared to be in control of all of the cotton markets in the world First prices in many instances were the highest for the season and shorts were thoroughly alarmed. There was some reaction from the better prices, and the market the day showed Q great deal of irreguiarity and nerv- ousncss. Much cotton thrown over by tired longs was readily taken up by belated shorts. However. the market reacted quite substan- tially from tho top price, Lverpoors closing was to IS points down from the top prices. and the lask of definite information from in- side sources led to liquidation in outside cir cles. The movement of cotton continued rath- CT small, the port receipts for the day being estimated at 800 bales. The weekly move ment, and tho in sight figures were expected to be bulish, and interior interests adhered to the prediction that he amount of cotton to come forward is relatively smaller than at this season for many years past. Bullish argu- ments wer still advanced with regard to the visible supply showing present and prospective. At the close the professional interests were in control of the general situation.

Big Bulls Seem in Full Control and Talk is Heard of Corner of Au- tumn options-Good Gains
 Shown at Close.

New York, June 15.-The cotton mar ket opened irregular and unsettled at an advance of 10uS points under another rush of shorts to cover, following a sen- sauonal burst of strength at Liverpool, which market at l2.S0 was 1s1xu2S1s points. higher, with private cables denot- ing similar position on the other side as that existing here and in New Orleans, the big bulls apparently in full control, and talk of corner in the early autumn options increasing
 The initial advance here put everything on the. list up, to new high record for the season, July selling at 12:35 on the call, September at 11.25, October at 10. i5. and December at 10.30 New Orleans, however, showed little disposition to re- spond to the bullish impulses and later cables from Liverpool denoted a substan- tial reaction there under what looked like profit taking by bulls. When the first rush of covering here had somewhat subsided, therefore, the. market became very irregular and showed a generally downward tendency under realizing with fumors circulated that the bull leaders here as well as in Liverpool and New Or leans were availing themselves of the advance to take profits. July was soon forced down to 1217. August to 1.S4, Cep- tember to u.2, and January to 10.l0. Then there was period of comparative quiet during which prices fiuctuated rather airnlessly. But in the last hour there was another rush of covering and tou6 4NcW OIiedHS support ,WlIn reports of break in the levee. at ,Vicksburg, which again sent values kiting, with the late months especially surpassing all pre- vious high points for the season.

Government Wins Land Case.

A case was argued before the
United States Land office in this city
on Thursday, that is peculiar in its
phase. The government is the plaintiff
and Chas. Bowman, whose whereahout
at present are unknown, and the In
land Lake Lumber Co. of Eagle Rive:,
of which the Colman Bros. are the in
corporators, are the respondents and
the case was brought by the govern
ment to recover title to certain land
in Villas county. Some years ago
Bowman took up homestead in town
40, range 10, and living upon it for
some time made his final settle
ment but secured no patent and made
no further effort to perfect his title.
Later he sold the land TO the Inland
Lake Lumber Co. the later buying it
in good faith and supposing that Bow
mans title was clear. Some time
after +. j. Parke. special agent of the
government, discovered that the
homesteader had no title to the land in
question and filed a complaint with
department at Washington, and the
action followed. 1t is conceded that
the case will be decided in favor of the
government and that the lumber COM
pany will lose its purchase money.
As Bowman has left the country the
company will have no redress

ut Position on Primary Election.

The Assembly refused to concur in

balance shall be submitted to the peo-

Congressman w. L. Brown OF this

himself as in sympathy with the stand

submit the remainder to the vote OF
