The record shows the smallest num-
Der of new cases since Aug. 6 and the
largest number of deaths on any day
since the fever made its appearance.
The unusual number of deaths is at
tributed in a measure to the change
in the weather, last night being cool
and pleasant, in great contrast to the
weather of the preceding week. Three
well known merchants are among the
new cases. Only two m that can
be traced to Italian origin are among
the thirty-one. OF the deaths eight

COTTON SITUATION
IN UNITED STATES

NEW YORK, Sept. Am their
weekly cotton report Miller & Co. say:
Reports from Texas and other states
of the cotton belt indicate that the
hot and dry spell continues. One
peculiar result of this condition is
the premature opening of the bolls,
and the consequence is an early move
ment of the crop. So far it has not
attained any great volume. The spin
ners are holding off in accordance
with a concerted plan of action, while
the farmers, on the other hand, while
willing to sell, are not inclined to
lower the price below 10 cents for
the purpose of finding buyers. The
spinners in England as well as in
this country are enjoying great pros
perity at present and they are not
holding back because the prices are
really too high or their trade I'M
profitable at the present prices, but
merely as a protest against the sup
posed attempt of the Southern Cotton
association to control the prices and
interfere with the law of supply and
demand"

The petition was presented by Solicitor

by Attorney General Moody.
The case was decided few weeks ago

the government as calculated to impose no

attorney general concludes his statement
as follows:
The reason for the Importance to the
