TO THE PUBLIC.

The weekly issue of the 'FREIE
PREssE FUER TExAs has po-
sltlvely the largest circulation
of all German papers published
IN the State Of Texas.
1t has over 400 established
agencies in the State, is mailed
to fully 700 post-ofices, and has
an extended circulation in Mexi-
co, in the Indian Territory, and
in Oklahoma.
1t circulates from Galveston
to Denison, from Marshall to Ell
Paso and of course mainly in
the thickly populated central
and southwestern parts of the
state.
Two travelling men and our
very active local agents are con-
tinuously adding new suba
scribers to the lists.
In consideration of these facts
the 'FREIE PREssE FUER TEXAS
claims to be the best adver-
tising medium in the State of
Texas, where it is the object to
reach the German reading po-
pulation.

sharp break of Monday and yesterday. which was largely ascribed to the work of the bear clique with a view of de- throning the New Orleans bull leader. who was out with an emphatic denial Of dissensions in the bull camp
 Even prior to this denial the ground was taken that the position of the bull pool was still lmpregnable and that the mar ket would soon rally. In short, the at- tempt to force down the near months was sure to fail to the extent of keeping them down. Extreme caution was being observed. however but there was a sus- picion that big short selling of late on the Idea of permanent disruption of the pool would soon lead to big covering, which might advance July and August above the top figures previously rep9 Cables were bullish and predicted a high CT level.
 Prices moved downward during the morning and very dull spell followed, mainly because of fresh reports from the bull pool that they would undertake to sell on any advance of importance. Showers were predicted for most sections of the cotton belt. Closing cables were unsettled. a shade higher for old crop and shade lower for new crop positions.

 By C.. w. Lee & Go.
 New York. July s.-It is rather difficult to formulate a satisfactory plan to be pursued in cotton operations at the pres ent time. Prices have declined to the 91s cents basis for new positions. just as those most interested in the welfare of the market desired, and conditions sur rounding crops are such as to bring about daily improvement.
 Large crops are those made during seasons in which conditions improve in June and July and not during those in which the August condition is lower than that shown at the beginning of the sea- son. The crop outlook would be very satisfactory If 1t were not for the boil weevil in Texas. A report received from there today was probably the most ton belt this season. But on the other hand, there is no doubt that this Is the most serious one that has ever faced cotton produced In America.
 We thoroughly believe in the purchase of December and January below 915c for the time being. It may be that oppor- tunities to make such purchases will be limited and again the bull pool may not be able to find a market for its cotton without lowering quotations, and this could easily bring January to 9hc.
 But nevertheless we would purchase if 1t breaks now and if cotton can be ob- tained for 9Ac so much the better. The very first unfavorable turn in weather We believe there is big money in the purchase of cotton the coming season and have been waiting for just such a break to buy.
