New Or cans Market.

New Orleans, July S.-In the spot cot ton market there was fair demand but offerings were not free. Sales 15OO bales higher.
 Futures opened steady, with prices to 26 points, higher n response to the im- provements in Liverpool and New York. Covering by anxious shorts was the feat ure of the first half hour of trading. Of- ferings were hardly equal to the demand although the wire houses were fairly good sellers, indicating that the country was convinced that ruling prices were not justified by crop prospects. The advances in the old crop months strengthened the winter positions and caused a fairly good advance. Shorts covered freely in the new crops but indications were that some of the heaviest operators in the new crop thought the advance had gone far/enough and were quietly selling. Many conserva- tive traders advised sales of December around $40. The market closed quiet. The net gain on July was s5 points. August unchanged while the new crop months lost to points.

Good Entertainment to Be Provided for
Next Monday Evening.

Next Monday evening is the date for
the regular meeting of the Young Mems
Republican club at the court house
There should be large attendance at
matters OF much importance to the par
~ may be discussed. Chairman Wilbur
Croker Of the musical committee saws
some entertainment along that line will
be provided and as the club possesses
some excellent musical talent something
good may be expected Justice Lynch,
chairman of the entertainment commit
tee, reports that the gentlemen compos-
IN" 1t will try to secure the services
OF one or two good speakers for short
talks. There will undoubtedly be some
thing TO interest all who attend and as
the meeting is the last to be held prior
to the county convention on the 30th
it Is possible that the club might wish
to discuss matters pertaining to the
good and welfare OF the party in that
connection. Whatever is to be the pro
gram. the republicans should turn out
to the club meeting and not allow the
interest that has been aroused in the
organization to wane.

THE SEWERAGE SYSTEM
WILL COST $4,000
Nearly Three Times as Much as the
Council Figured--Opinion of
Engineer COtterill.

All the aldermen were present at the
city council meeting last Monday even
ing, but after the body was called to
order and the minutes were read and
approved Alderman Sinclair moved that
the council adjourn until this evening
Wednesday, stating that he believed
most of the aldermen had previous en-
gagements. The motion was seconded
by Alderman Rand. who stated that he
did not think the aldcrmanic mind was
in condition to give the city business
the attention and liberation that
was necessary. and the motion wa,
unanimously carried. He was probably
thinking, as was everyone present, OF
the minstrel show of the Elks.
After the adjournment. Mayor Fech
ter, in a little informal talk, informed
the council that the sewerage and drain
age system on which the council is fig
uring is going to cost much more than
was anticipated. George +. Cotteriil Of
Seattle, the expert sewerage engineer,
had been in the city several DAYS, he
said, consulting with Engineer McCul-
Tough about the system. The council
had thought it could be constructed for
about 100000 The engineers had gone
over the ground. however. carefully az
ahmed the conditions made estimates
and were satisfied that the system will
cost 100000. Mr. Cotterill will sub
init detailed report to the council thi,
evening regarding the proposed improve
ment. Several weeks ago, it will be re-
membered, he was employed by the
council as consulting engineer.

figures of the engineers. could be built
for about 100000 They would run

drainage and the system would be ado
quate for a city OF 10000 population
Mr.. Cotterll was of the opinion. stated
Mayor Fechter, that the drainage ami
sewerage system would prevent the t.
phoid fever epidemic. lie also informed
the council that it was the opinion of
the engineers that the present sewerage
system is practically valueless. The
information as to the cost Of the work
seemed to staggcr the councilmen. They
did not discuss the matter. but the may
or, in a private conversations said he
thought the only thing to do was to 90
ahead and bond the city for the trunk
line sewers and then complete the sy.-
tenn when it could be done under the
plan of assessment districts. The city
can only be bonded at this time for
about S60,O00, which must be submitted
to vote of the people The written re-
port of Engineer Cotterill will be sub
mitted to the council this evening and
the subject discussed in all its bearings.

the change to the new system. 1t was,
however. defeated, and the plan now in

other year. The delegates report a very

payment, whether in Manila or in
Europe, lies between the vatican au-
thorities and the friars, the latter being
the titular owners of the land. OF
course the officials would like to see
the money remain in the islands, but
are prepared to accept a decision
either way on that point. 1t was sup
posed to be the purpose of the vatican
authorities, in stipulating for the pay
ment of the money in Manila, to en-
deavor to make sure that it was re-
turned to the Catholic congregations
who originally provided the means for
acquiring the land. The friars, on the
other hand having practically finished
their work in the islands, are sup
posed to be naturally DESTROYS of car
rying the money realized from the
land sales into their new field Of ac-
tivities. So the war department has
arranged to have the particular sum of
$2,000,000 involved in the transaction
with the Augustinians placed to the
credit OF the treasurer of the Philip
pine islands in the Bank of England
and will issue the warrant for the
amount, which will be good in either
London or Manila.
