 Eighteen thousand people visited the Grand Canyon last year, and indications are that the number of visitors this year will be nearly dou- ble that number.-Journal- Miner.
 Coconino county has been wear ing the wardrobe of a first class county for few months, but in August it will put on the plain robe of a second or third class county probably the latter.-Gem.
 The Bisbee Miner is advertised for sale. It is splendid plant and holds an exceptional niche in the business, but it seems that brevier booze, business and theology could not be made to Justify" ."-Cananea Herald.
 The Santa Fe has just issued a folder entitled "Side Trips on the Santa Fe." It tells how to reach mining camps, summer resorts, hot springs, Indian villages and pre- historic ruins away from the rail- road in New Mexico and Arizona.
 The president spent so much time talking about irrigation while in Arizona and New Mexico that his train was always pulled out of the station just as he was about to say a few words concerning the pledge to confer statehood. - The Com moner.
 F. P. Barnes, for the past year master mechanic of the Santa Fe shops in Albuquerque, has been ap- pointed mechanical superintendent of the El Paso and Northeastern system, with headquarters at Ala mogordo, and has rendered his res ignation to the Santa Fe, to take effect at once.
 Captain c. N. Sterry, head of the Santa Fe Pacific law department, died suddenly at his home in Los Angeles last Friday. He had not been i'll and his death came as a great shock to his family and many friends. Captain Sterry was we'll known throughout Arizona as one of the brightest of lawyers and a sterling gentleman.
 For long while the California mainline tracks of the Santa Fe and a portion of that roads track age in Arizona have been prac- tically dustless, much to the delight of transcontinental travellers. This desirable state of affairs was brought about by using crude oil from the inexhaustible abundance of Califor- nia's wells.
 President Diaz of Mexico has is sued proclamation which will put a stop to American railroad em- ployes being thrown into dungeons every time an accident occurs to the train on which employees may be. His proclamation states that they shall be entitled to bail, and shall be accorded the same treat ment they receive in the United States.
 Several lines are disputing as to which railroad first generally equipped its passenger cars with electric lights. That honor really belongs to western road - the Santa Fe. The Santa Fe began experimenting with electric lights for its cars more than five years ago in its Topeka shops. It now has upwards of 200 cars lighted by cleo tricity, comprising day coaches, chair-cars, diners and Pullmans. AS fast as possible its other cars on through runs are being simi- larly lighted,

STOCKS AND BONDS.

New York, June 17.-To-day's oper-
atoms in stocks were made up almost
wholly of professional operations of a
testing character. These seemed to
demonstrate to the satisfaction of the
testers that stock for sale was to be
met on advances and from the Offering
down of prices did not promise large
success in dislodging selling orders The
consequence was progressive dullness
in the trading and sluggishness in
fluctuations in prices. This agrees with
the general expectation Of the most ex-
perienced observers, who saw in the
sudden rally of last Thursday the nat
ural course following a elimination OF
the long decline. and leaving a large
short interest uncovered after the ilr-
gent liquidation had been completed.
With the satisfaction of this short in
terest prices halted and then declined,
but without getting back 10 the loY
level of last Wednesday, although they
were near II yesterday morning.

COTTON FUTURES.

New York, June 1.-THE cotton
market opened firm at an advance
of 9@15 points under English cables
which at the time of the local open
ing were anywhere from to 20 points
higher than had been expected. The
gains abroad following yesterdays
pronounced weakness were attributed
by some to scalping operations on the
part of the big bull spectators ana
were quite generally considered as an
indication that these interests still re-
tain mastery of the situation so far as
the English market is concerned at any
rate. Still, as prices here had ad-
vanced 26S points over the opening
figures on the near months there was
a renewal of realizing and selling re-

Baxter and Co... Cotton Letter.

New York, June 17.-Cotton market
opened 8 to Is points higher in spite of
rather cratic cables with the market
quite active. 1t soon appeared that
the time for withdrawing support had
not yet been reached. Bears had been
claiming that yesterdays bureau re-
port was bearish and warranted lower
prices, but it was evident that the
trade is not greatly impressed by iso-
lated instances of crop improvement.
This would be otherwise if we had not
passed the month of May but since
the very cold weather and previous
backwardness it seems to reason that
the crop stands a poor showing of
turning out large one, no matter how
favorable the weather may be for the
remainder of the season. Higher tenn
perature prevailed in the South and
the rainfall was of little consequence.
Shorts continue to display nervous
ness and a good many who sold yester-
day on the theory that the rise had
eliminated, were buying back in haste
this morning. Receipts are on a small
scale and the movement indicates that
the present crop will scarcely reach
II 900, 900 bales even bears conceding
this fact. August showed good deal
of strength after the opening, but the
new crop months weakened TO last
nights figures and the trading as
sumed small proportions. Gables
were firm at Is points higher for the
old crop and lower for the new crop.

reports that markets for cloth is par
alyzed because of the wild market for
cotton. Here the market opened
steady at 10 to Is points advance to
below last evenings prices on selling
orders from the South, apparently as
hedges against their crop. 1t is many
years since the opportunity was pre-
sented to sell at least a portion of their
crop at 10 cents. Weather at the South
is much better for the growing crop,
in fact quite the best of the season.
July has been in supply here against
purchases of September after the break
in that delivery. In short there has
been more new crop cotton for sale
from what would be called legitimate
sources than for many weeks.
Market was slightly better at the
close on strength in August, but offer
ed afterwards below the last quota
tons. Weather predictions good. The
spot market was quiet, 10 points ad-

The Morning News Office,
Wednesday, June II.
The cotton markets closed irregular
to-day, with some months up and 9TH
ers down. Following the jump of the
day before, majority of the trade
were on the lookout for an uneventful
days movement. On the spot there
was the same lethargy due to small
stock, and hence, practically no de-
mand. In the f. o. b. market trading
was also along narrow lines.
The turpentine market closed firm at
463lc and after the closing sold at
47c, with the entire of the offerings
wiped up by exporters. There seemed
to be a wholesome demand for the ar
ticle. Resins closed firm, and in de-
mand at quotations, with the offerings
we'll reduced. The wholesale markets
closed steady and mainly unchanged.
