COTTON LETTER.

 36 Commerce. Street
H. & B. BEER.

oo commerce Street.
 New Orleans, Aug 25-The reaction in cotton went little further today En- couraged by better Liverpool than was expected our market opened steady at an advance of four to six points
 pullness was noted throughout the ses-- sion and much uncertainty was felt over the less favorable crop accounts. As the day progressed strong efforts were made by some local manipulators to raise a crop scare. but the pressure to sell cotton was again too strong to be successfully resist eo and the bull forces fell back futures finally closing steady at an advance of three to six points over yesterdays close. Spots were officially reported quiet and one-sNteenth lower all grades Sales amounted to ninteen bales of spot and none to arrive. The receipts of new cotton con- tlnue large scale. Houston alone shows receipts of 64.2s2 bales to date
 The weather map showed dry weather with temperatures rather moderately high CT, but cooler weather Is promised by a cold wave moving toward the cotton belt from the Northwest
 Yours truly,

Bond in the sum or $40.000 was giv- en yesterday afternoon by the Austrian Steamer Margharita to satisfy the sal wage libel suits brought against her by the British Steamer Riplingham and the pilot boat Pilot, and the vessel has been released from custody of the Unit ed States marshal. and can proceed on her voyage to Marsefles on whatever date the master may choose.
 The work on the propeller has been completed. and the engines tested. but the steamer will probably not sail un- til Wednesday. as the testimony of the master in the libel suits must be taken and this will require about two days The big bond of the vessel was made by a surety company and accepted by the United States court officers. Thir- ty thousand dollars of the bond was on account fthe Riplingham and $10.- 900 for the pilot boat

Hot Weather Recprd.

All hot weather records in this city for 1906, were broken yesterday when the temperature rose to 96 degrees at 1 o'clock in the afternoon. There were many to suffer from the heat and in many instances workmen were com pelled to stop work for several hours during the afternoon. The tempera- ture went above 90 degrees before the noon hour and remained above that point until after o'clock in the af- ternoon. A coincidence occurred in the record in that on the same date last year the highest temperature of that year was reached.

Fear for TaiIors.

It is feared by the pilots and others who heard the statement of the master of the three-masted schooner Bonidon which arrived off Pensacola yesterday with all of thecrew sick, that one of the men will be dead before the vessel reaching Ship Island. her destination. The master made the statement that all of the crew was down and one man very low. and asked that a tug be sent him immediately. This occurred in the gulf. where the pilot boat found the schooner. and although everything pos- sible was done no tug could be secured for about eight hours, and 1t was near ly o'clock in the afternoon before the big tug Nellie was at liberty to go to the assistance of the schooner. car ryinR ice and other necessities Whila 1t is not known here it is believed that the crew has been attacked by the chargres fever. During the past few weeks vessels from Colon and other nearby ports arriving at gulf ports have had cases of this fover on board. and in one or two instances the entire crews were down with 1t. Much interest has been aroused here. however, and the arrival of the schooner in Ship Island and a. report as to the nature of the fever is being anxiously awaited
