LY DENIED.

A message was received yesterday
from Secretary of State Elihu Root,
wherein the well known cabinet Of
Ger states that the Mexican Govern
ment is greatly concerned over the
report that fishing vessels have start
ing for Mexican waters. The mes
sage in full is as follows:
Washington, May 18th, 1905.
Warren Fish Co., Pensacola Fla.
Department has been informed by
our ambassador to Mexico that Mex
lean government is concerned over
report that other fishing vessels are
starting for Mexican waters. Enbas-
sy suggests that fishing companies be
warned to avoid Mexican territory as
that government will not tolerate
coaching within their waetrs.
RLIHU ROOT.
No Need For Alarm.
The local fish companies, owning
smacks state that there is no need
for apprehension on the part Of the
Mexican government. It is stated
that no poaching has ever been done,
and that there is no idea of com
mancing the thing now. especially In
view of the recent seizure of
smacks by the Mexican government.
It will be remembered that not
many weeks ago fishing smacks, the
property of the Warren Fish Com
pany and Galveston and Mobile parties
we're seized with the crews of each
vessel The hardships and inhuman
treatment to which the captains and
crews of each vessel were treated
has already been told in these
columns.
May Be international.
In view Of the cont maze by
the Mexican government the fishing
question, as far as fishing outside OF,
or. within certain boundaries is con-
cerned may become an international /
question. International law is. ac-I
cording to legal authority interviewer |
in the controversy, and 1t Is firmly /
predicted that the custom which mas
generally been accepted that is the
Jurisdiction of one country in waters
terminates one league from shore orr
three miles will govern and settle the
Mexican contention.

New York. March ei.-The sincerity of my opinion yesterday in regard to the prob been vigorously assaiIed. These imputations have. however. originated from the most pArt with those who are short of the market and are sufficiently numerous to reader me even more confident than had been pre- viously of the Tnagnltrde of the short inter poaitions This development makes me more confident than ever of the correctness have taken decidedly saner view of the real significance of yesterdays ginners re- port than was accorded to 1t by the emotion al and eleventh hour bears on this side of the Atlantic yesterday,
 With futures in New York nearer a snIp- ping basis to Liverpool than at any time previously this season and lower than the price of spot cotton in any of the control there Is any factor of depression in the pres ent situation. With continually decreasing uiative situation and a considerable short interest created on lower basis than that and the buying which is the reflection of good trade. throughout the world Is the market, Any attempt at the coercion of the market in the direction of higher prices is. in my opinion. unnecessary and inadusa- healthy condition and may safely be left to take care of itself Like all healthy or gans 1t will grow and broaden.
 Already the improvement Tn the market on the dry goods market and the slight reac- which had been noted in sympathy with the earlier decline in the market has today been recovered and much more active demand for dry goods of nearly all descriptions Is apparent. It will shortly he demonstrable in my opinion. that the trade of the world has expanded to 8 point which makes an American crop of 12.500 000 bales of cotton next year essential to the avoidance of scaI~ city Whatever the future may have in store. cannot see anything in the present situation to justify belief in the probabil- ity of such a crop next year. and meantime. it is becoming more and more evident thnt the supplies at the end of this season. will be reduced to a dangerously low point
 My personal importance in relation to the market has been greatly exaggerated. My ability to effect it's course. except as the facts may justify Is negligible, but am ab- solutely sincere and absolutely confident In my belief in much higher prices for tho remnant of this years crop unsoid. and in this expectation I abide the result with cquanimity.
