THE COTTON CROP
MEMPHIS NEWSPAPERS SUMMARY
 OF CONDITIONS.
For the Past Week improvement Has Been General Rains Benc-
 ffing Those Sections Which
 Complained of Drought.

Memphis. Tenn. June 3.--A summary of cotton crop condition for the past week in central southern states as compiled by the Commercial Appeal follows;
 Reports for the week under review tell of very general improvement. Gen eral rains have benefited those sec- tions which complained of drought. have favored the advancement of the old and the coming up of the replant- ed cotton, but except in a few sec- tions rains have not been very heavy or prolonged hnd have not interfered with ouItfvatton. There are some re- ports which may quite properly be classed as brilliant. though these un- usually fine ones are in part offset by a few localities which are behind the general average of advancement.
 Portions of northwestern and central Mississippi complain of excessive rains and hall at few places in this area is reported. Other sections of the state are very promising Some complaints of rain come from the lowlands of Arr kansas and few points in this State have had hardly enough rain. but the Arkansas reports as a whole show marked improvement over those of last week. West Tennessee has been much improved by rains. Those sec tiops of Northern Alabama which were damaged by the frosts report a more hopeful outlook. In some places the stands are yet poor, but all cotton is making good growth.
 Over the area reported upon it is usual for correspondents to report that the plant is making progress and while some unfavorable influences are de- tailed. they state that the plant is healthy. Early in the week there were a few cool nights which were fav- orabls to lice, but the close of the week found the temperature higher and the lice disappearing.
 Review by The Picnyune.
 New Orleans, June 3-The Picayunes correspondents in the cotton belt report that there has been good progress made by the cotton crop during the past light but sufficient except in a few instances and all crops but particularly cotton have been benefited

Although slightly be- hind. the average date in the matter of growth, the cotton fields are said to he uncommonly clean and well culti- vated An uncommonly fine crop Is promised in Louisiana.
 In Mississippi the past week has de- veloped an improvement in all crops, particularly cotton. There has been suficiency of moisture, in some places too much is reported and the crop Is now growing nicely. While the with an average year and stands In some places are reported irregular, the fields are generally well cultivated and free of grass.

He has a strong Individuality and Is high ly respected Answering questions of an inspector of police concerning his son he said:
 T wish to know nothing of this in- famous creature formerly bearing my name. I have not considered him my son since I drove him from my house March 1. The reason for his being cast out was purely domestic and I beg to be excused from disclosing it. I do not know whether he was connected with the attempt on the lives of the king and queen as I have considered him dead since he was cast out"
 Morales brother Facundo, gave these details concerning the deaa man:
 At an early age he was sent to the mercantile centers of Germany and France, where he became an expert in textile production. but his natural bent was chemistry and he returned home with library of prominent French works on chemistry. His morose dis position, led to family troubles which culminated in his father disowning him. Then Morales translated German chemical hooks for the Eccle Moderne at Barcelona.
