New York, July 27.-Cotton opened a
trihe better for the new crop, while the
old crop months eased off a couple Of
points. The market was dull in the
early session. Gables opened we'll, but
later weakened thus causing local hes
itation. The weather was too dry in
the Southwest. Texas had pretty heavy
rains, but mostly along the coast, and
those in the interior were not far up
north. High temperatures on Sunday
also were reported. Altogether the
weather and crop views indicated no
marked change from Saturday, and the
expectation is that the weekly bureau
report tomorrow may show that the
high temperatures have been against
the crop; at all events, it may have
checked the improving tendency shown
in many sections of late. The new
crop is being we'll supported, and will
undoubtedly continue to be until re-
ceipts of new cotton are so free as to
indicate a movement Of Importance
during the fall months. Wall street
was demoralized after the opening, and
cotton in consequence weakened con-
siderably, especially September. There
was not much doing. Reports came
in later of temperatures as high as
ITO in Texas on Sunday, and this stead
led the market some. Cables were easy
at 6@9 points lower. Manchester was
quiet.

SPIRITS.-The turpentine market
scored another advance in price to-
day, opening firm at so to 50Ac with
sales of 27S casks, and closing firm
and unchanged with sales of III casks.
The demand continues good and the
receipts light. Sales of the afternoon
receipts were made at the outside price,
but not all receipts were taken, fac
tors holding off for the outside price
while bidders showed Discrimination
to go above SOC. The receipts were 500
casks and the exports 55S7.
ROSINS.-The rosin market closed
firm and unchanged and without sales.
Bidders showed a tendency to keep
out of the market evidently in the ex-
pectation that an accumulation of
stock will force prices down, for not
only were no sales recorded during
market hours, but the receipts of the
afternoon were also ignored. The re-
ceipts were 1,S49 barrels and the ex-
ports, 1882. Prices as follows:

easy and later reports drifted in of
good rains in the western belt which
shortly after midday received official
confirmation. Following the initial firm
ness the market was quiet during
the forenoon. There was a little or
no support and as the session pro-
crossed, offerings became more lib
eral.
July, which had opened at, 1890 and
sold at, 1880 was depressed to 13.1Oc
and August after selling at, 12.40c, or
8 points over Saturdays close was
forced down to 12.1Oc under realizing.
september was weak all day. Opening
at lO.65c, 1t sold down to, 10.52c, and
the later months also attracted gener-
al pressure. Toward the close the mar
ket was the most active of the session
and while the list was finally steady,
prices were at the lowest of the SEES
sion or at a net decline of to 80
points. Sales were estimated at co.
900 bales.

,roak saturday, at high water mark
e,r Julv. Soc, it went even a little
Sigber to-day reaching the outside
artce of 5Ohc, with by far the greater
nnr,ber of sales at that figure. The
rosin market remains firm and I'M

rocorded either during market hours
~ in the afternoon when, generally
.bare is the liveliest demand. The re-
csints of both turpentine and rosins
continue light despite the favorable
weather that has marked the last sew
eral days.
The cotton market both in spot cot
ION and in the f. o. b. department re-
mains quiet with practically no. bust
ness. 1t is stated that many mills
rather than pay the prices demanded
are closing up until the marketing of
the new crop, as they cannot manu-
facture goods without a loss so long
as the present prices of the raw ma
teral obtain. In the stock market
the situation is clearing up and more
hopeful view is being taken of the
situation. Details of the various mar
kets follow:

Survey Cable Route.

The United States government has taken definite steps towards an extension of the Alaska military cable nSsth and westward from Sit ka to Valbez. This action is indi- eatea in an order directing that the o. S. coast and geOdetic survey ves- sel Patterson, Capt. J. F. Pratt, proceed to survey of the proposed cable route between the points named
 Gen. Greedy not long ago hinted that such action would be taken by the government sooner or later. 1t means an addition of about 800 miles to tine Alaska cable. The line from Seattle to Skagway by way of Sitka and Juneau and thence back down the Lynn canal te Hainss Mission, the site of the new military post, which was de- esded upon some months ago. Ca- ble material is alread dy being as- sembled.
 The Patterson, which is now in Seattle, will begin the survey of the Alaska line about June 15. She starts her operations at Cape Flat tery, surveying permanent course, !, taking depth and measurements to Sitka, thence across to Juneau, where the cable will connect with that running from Juneau to Skag- way. Having completed this work she will survey the cable route from Skagway to Haines, and then from Sitka will outline the exten- sion to Valdez Ultimately the government intends laying the ca. ble on out to Cook Inlet and on down the Aleutian archipelago to Dutch Harbor or Upalaska,
 The Sitka-Valdez work finished the Patterson will devote the rest ef the season to survey of Controls Ter bay, making 2 map thereof.
 The survey and mapping of Con- trualsr bay, Kayak island, at this time is due largely to the import ant oil discoveries in that section. Around Kayak there are extensive shoals and thorough survey is re- garded as imperative in view of the development work in the district.

and stay there and bring up their children there and make it, ia very fact, as we'll as in name. an iateg- ral part of this republic
 wish to see the land laws se en- acted-such land laws enacted, and and to see them so adminSA cred. as to be in the interest Ok the ac- tual settler who goes to Alaska to live, who desires there to vssSluee crops, to raise stock, and to make a home fOx himself. Subject to this conditioa-that is, subject to the conditioa of shaping the legis- tiOn in the interest of the. actual home maker who is making home fDr himself and for future genera tionss subject to that condition, I desire to see legislation shaped in q spirit of the bsoadest liberality, that will secure the quickest possi- ble development of the resources of Alaska. And with that end in view, to have all the encouragement possible given to those seeking to establish, by steamship line and by railway, quick and effective trans portation facilities in the territory.
 Few things have been more typ ical of our people and have been more full of promise for the future than the way in which the resources of Alaska have been developed, and when one sees what has been done there during the last few years, 1 think we have cause to feel abund- antly justified in our belief that the qualities of the old time pio- neers, the pioneers who first pene- trated the wooded wilderness be- tween the Alleghanies and the Mis- sissippi, and then steered their way across the vast seas of grass from the Mississippi to the Rockies, who penetrated the passes of the great barren mountains and then came to this, the greatest of all the oceans that their qualities still survive Tn their grandsons and successors. Nor must we forget, in speaking of Alaska, the immense importance that the territory has from the standpoint of the needs of the ma tion as a whole- ss a dominant power i'm the Pacific. Exactly as with the building of the Lsthmian canal we shall make oun Atlantic and our Pacific: coasts i'm effect con- tiuuousy so the possessing and psU- bling o6 the Alaska sea coast puts us in a position of dominance as regards sAs- Pacific, which no other nation shares or can share.
