Sales amounted arrive. Middiine was again quoted at II c.
 The same weather conditions which caus- ed heavy rains in the Western and central rains also in the Eastern half of the belt, from which section drought reports were Texas were only at scattered points. many places recording no rainfall at all, so that complaints of too much rain in that State apply only to certain localities. and is hot q general condition such as the insufficient m .5 of 1a the aS have come in the nick of time we may. be- fore long. expect glowing crop accounts .ats more activity in the market today. Most of the trading. however. was of a profes. exhibiting an indifferent attitude
 The main strength today came from New York. where the chief long interests exi- ist Manipulation was again in evidence. the purpose of those engineering the course of prices being to force extensive covering by shorts and to galvanize outside specula- tion into buying, with view to unloading big lines of long cotton on them The basis of fob. cotton has declined : points since the last day of April. and spor buyers are making purchases only when futures afford good opportunities for hedging. Tenn pofarily the manipulative tactics being em- ployed by the New York bull crowd may force prices to a higher level: but consider ing the fact that the outlook for the new crop is now excellent fact which may in duce spinners to fall back on their reserves. we strongly favor selling on any sharp ad- vances. Should spinners withdraw from the market, the July position would seem the most vulnerable as the chief long interest here Is centered in that month.
 Yours truly.

1t seems almost heartless to suggest
that from the presence Of calamity
so great as that which has almost de-
stroyed the proud and beautiful city

in the spirit now being manifested by
the woefuliy stricken people Of that
wrecked city there is that which
arouses the highest pride on the part
Of all who can claim them as fellow
countrymen. The list of the dead
through the earthquake and fires Is
grievously large, but it is far below
first expectations and for that fact
there is every where thankfulness.
And the appeal the great disaster has
made to the sympal hies and gener-
esity of the American people, aud the
response to that appeal, are worth
more than the money involved even
though years may he required TO re-
place the property destroyed. That
the people of our COMMON country are
boLnd together by ties which make
them common sharers of each others
Affections and disasters, is an inspir
ing truth which IL Is well to be remind
ed Of In performing this great ser
vice some compensation is given for
San Francisco's affiiction and awful
loss.

majority, though nominally Republican by

Several causes contributed 10 the de-
feat of Mcclellan. He had been prose-
cutting attorney Of Wood County. and the
voters were Of the opinion that he failed
to prosecute q set of county officials
nearly ali Of whom had been short in their
accounts. Then there was intense oppo-
sition to the machine which threw its
aid to Mcclellan. thereby securing him
the nomination over SOuthard. Another
factor was the imDrudence of the n61ni-

GOV.-ELECT HUGHES VIEWS.
Believes in Hard Work, and Is Not
Orthodox i'm His Religion.

From Interview with Cor. elect Hughes.
I believe in work, hard work, and long
hours OF work. Men do not break down
from overwork, but from worry and dis
sipauon.
/ notice that most successful men are
those whose minds are always cool. who,
no matter how swift the movement of
their bodies, are able 70 deliberate coolly
and to produce calm. sober Judgment
even under disturbing circumstances. II
is not the man who reaches the corner
first who wins, but the man who knows
exactly what he is going 10 do when he
reaches the corner.
I regard successful man as one who
has utilized 10 its fullest extent the best
ability In him. One man may have great
ability as money-maker; then he would
be successful when he had made much
money. Another man may have ability
as an artist. he is successful when be
has won fame by his art II a man leaves
any one Of his talents 10 lie idle, he Is rot
a successful man. Mere mOney-making Is
a poor sort Of success.
Ny views on religion are not what most
Of my church friends would regard as
orthodox; in fact, I have rather free
giews, but l recognize that We have In
the church the greatest conservative force
IN our affairs. and If for no other reason
than this. 1 feel that 1t should be sup
ported. There is "A lot OF cant about it,
but il has d great power for good. wheth-
er one agrees or not with the teachings
Of its ministers.
