From Lincoln County.

Sheriff Ross passed through
the city the early part of this
week on his way to Portland hav-
ing in charge the children OF j..
w. Flower, Of Newport, to place
them in the care of the Boys and
Girls Aid Society.
The children were taken in
charge by the county court of Lin
coin county because they were
not receiving the care they should
have, and their commitment to
the society was the result. Mr..
Flower formerly resided in AL
bany, leaving there some years
ago for Newport. Recently
couple OF his children were taken
away from him and sent to Port
land, and now the balance, two
little boys and a girl, are placed
in the same institution. The
children were motherless aid re-
ceived so little care that the peo-
pie of Newport demanded that
they be cared for. Flower is full
of schemes, and Sheriff Ross said
yesterday that he was constantly
talking OF building an ark on Nc
Lanes point on Yaquina bay,
1900 feet long, in which he pro-
poses to navigate the waters of the
bay. This is a sample of the
work of his mind, and other
equally startling statements are
made by him.

we clip the following dispatch
dated at Toxic, August IS, which
tells its own story:
Vice-Admiral Kamimura res
cued 600 of the crew of the Rus
sian cruiser Rurik, sunk by his
squad1on off Tsu Island yester-
day. The Japanese generally
are comparing the treatment ac-
corded the crew of the Rurik TO
that accorded by the Vladivostok
squadron to those on board the
transport Hltachi, which the
squadron sank June IS during its
first raid. A prominent official
SAID to the Associated Press to-
day: 'Japan has avenged the
Hitachi. Admiral Kamimura
rescued and succored those who
aided in sinking the Hltachi
and who sailed away from hum
.sdreds of drowning victims. We
offer their living for our dead"
And Russia has always been
classified as Christian nation
the Japanese have been set down
as heather.

Lelshman C Co.'s Cotton Letter.

Lelshman & Co.'s Cotton Letter.
 The cotton market opened quiet and lower responding to the lower advices from Loverpool. There was considerable long stuff dumped for profits and this, coupled with some short selling by 8 leading Wall street bear helped the de- cline. The market, however, received good support around the low levels and the bears were indsposed to push the reaction too far in view of this feature. The south bought moderately of Decem- Der and January and spinners were good buyers of the spot article.
 A Philadelphia spot cotton house was also buyer.
 The weather was generally favorable over Sunday and the expectation that the weekly report tomorrow would not be un- favorable, had a tendency to depress sen- timent.
 The short interest has increased con sideraby during the past week and looks to us as If 1t was becoming top-heavy, and would not be surprised to see a bear panic of no mean proportions in the near future. The size of this interest Is large enough to put cotton up 100 points at the minimum and thInK cotton will reach 121kc before October 1. No mis take can be made by taking free posi- ton on the long side of the market al current quotations.

New York. September 24 1904.
 submit herewith the result of my usual monthly postal cary inquiry Into the condition of the cotton crop.
 have received 1216 replies of an aver age date of September 20 from SIS coun- ties, which counties produced last year about So per cent of the entire crop.
 The average deterioration in condition reported since the 20th of August is A per cent.
 The average condition, expressed In percentage, 100 being the standard of nor nal development, is 71.6.
 For the past ten years the average de- terioration in condition for the previous month, as stated by the government in it's October report, has been 6.4 per cent, and the average condition as stated by the government In Its October reports has been 66.8 per cent.
 The condition as reported by my cor respondents Is, therefore, 5 per cent above the average governmental condition for the past ten years, and the deterioration Is about per cent less than the average deterioration as reported by the govern ment for the past ten years.
 The number of replies received from each state and the condition of the 20th of September and the goth of August, as reported by my correspondents Is as fol- lows:
