 Agreed with the Mayor.
 That precedent Is not always fol- lowed in ihe action Of the city council has seldom bAGn more clearly brought out than 1t was last night. Ever since the Installation of Mayor Teague Tn the part of the Aldermen to disagree with him in matters where the cxecu- tive veto has beer brought Into play. Last night. however, all records were ordinan ~es with his veto, all of which were sustained More than that, in the process, there was not heard q dis- tenfing voice. except when Alderman Sullivan, annoyed at what he thought a needless question over technicality, suggested saat he believed the Mayor would rot regard 1t as disrespectful if the council were to appropriate cer- tain sums to members of the police force for time lost because of sickness. tbe ordinance for which the executive had refused to sign because the num- Der of days the men were sick was not included in the appropriation.
 On the vetoes of the Mayor appli- ed to the ordinance recently passed by the council, by which the Mont gomery Traction Company was releas- ed from the obligation of widening. grnveling and grading Jefferson Davis Avenue from South Court Street to Holt Street, according to the stipula- tions of the original franchise for that line The object If the ordinance when pc ssed, 1t appeared from express sions of the Aldermen, was misun- derstood, and the vote taken sustained the veto.

COTTON.

New York. July 16. 190e-The New York Herald admittedly an independ- ent and on-speculative newspaper. in pects. today makes the following statement:
 last season the outlook aces not tavos unless there is sudden change for the better in crop surroundings H. OO0 000 bales will be liberal estt-
 Ellison. the English sstatistician, in his last circular. states that the Eu- ropean consumption of cotton thus far the season Is 20S.ooO bales in excess last year. Over the world the takings of American cotton were about l2,- 800 GOO bales. This admission by El- iison leaves no doubt as to the absolute 000.0O bales next year Tn order to avert a cotton famine. The prospect of the present crop according to my advices Is rapidly detertorating. One hundred and ninety-five members of the New York. Liverpool and Southern Exchanges agree that crop of H. 900 coo bales this year would be worth S1337 per hundred.
 Southern producers who in the pres ent situation part with their cotton at less than twelve cents pound are in my opinion doing themselves and their competitors unnecessary injury.
 I have perhaps undeservedly the reputation of being a chronic bear on cotton For this reason, if for no oth- CT, my present confidence in extreme ly high prices should be accepted as based only upon the most thorough study of the situation, just as thor ouEhly as I believed last December that it was a mistake to bull cotton above twelve cents pound. never believe an extraordinary advance is imminent Numerous reports of seri- ous deterioration as a result of excess sive rains and damage are reaching me from all sections of the belt. I shall appreciate 1t if those to whose eye this advertisement may come will let me know whether such reports are true or not.

 Chicago. July l6-Joseph Jefferson and Grover Cleveland went on many a fishing trip together and the dead actor when he had his will drawn up, made it plain that he desired those happy bygone days to be remembered by the former President of the United States on any future, excursions of this nature that he might make.
 MT. Jefferson's will. dated Oct. 27 1899, was filed here today in the Re- corder's office. In a codicil attached to the will, and dated five years later the former noted actor in one short line shows the good fellowship which existed between these :wo fishing com panions.
 "To my friend. the Honorable Grover Cleveland. bequeath my best Ken tuck reel"
 This Is the way Mr. Cleveland Is remembered In the will. and to those who knew Joseph Jefferson in life these few simple words mena that Gro yer Cleveland WAS the recipient of one of the dead actors most treasured pos. eeesiond

 medlately.
 Chicago, July 16.-Judge Peter 8. Grosscup, in the United States Circuit Court today granted the Chicago and Alton Railroad Company. John N. Fait- horn and Fred A. wann, writs of su- persedeas. staying the execution of a fine aggregating $6O,OoO, assessed A arainst the three defendants a short time ago by Judge Landis in the Uni- ted States District Court on charges of granting Illegal rebates.
 At the same time a bond of $60,OOO covering the fine, pending an appeal 10 the United States Circuit Court of Ap- peals. was filed by the defendants. This is practically a friendly proceeding, because both sides of the case are anxious to have a decision of the higher courts on the rebate question.
