1t in the presence OF Mr.. Piles. Tom
Payne. j. T. McChesney and Albert T..
| Mead. 1t was then Governor Mead
promised Mr.. Crocker that he should
| name the warden to succeed Mr.. Dry
den at the state penitentiary. a prom
Use subsequently fulfilled in the ap-
pointment Of A. F. KEGS, OF Walla
Walla. to that position.
How They Were Delivered.
1.-The sincerity Of Mr.. Crocker's
promise to deliver the nine southeast
votes was shown by subsequent de-
velopments. The most notable Of these
was that Mr.. Piles did not get the
votes. When the legislature got ready
to ballot for senator Mr. Crocker was
in California, where he could not ne
called on to deliver the goods. His
return to Olympia was not in response
to any urging from Mr.. Piles and his
friends. but at the instance of George
Stevenson and G. H. Baker, who sum-
moned him to prevent Joe Mohundro
from sending the southeast votes to
Senator Foster. This accounts for the
fact that Mr. Mohundro failed of re-
appointment.
The reason alleged by the friends Of
Senator Ankeny in Walla Walla for
demanding the resignation Of Eugene
Lorton as chairman Of the republican
county central committee. is that he
failed to account for the influence used
in Walla Walla county in the fall cam
paign by Charles Sweeny. Spokane's
millionaire senatorial candidate. 1t is
a matter of record that the votes prom
ised Mr. Piles by Mr.. Crocker. and
which compact was agreed to by Mr..
Ankeny's private secretary, Mr.. A. F.
Slater, and the editor of his paper.
Eugene Lorton. were subsequently cast
for Mr.. Sweeny.
Feared Foster More.
&C. H. Baker voted to the last for
Mr.. Sweeny, and George Stevenson was
the Spokane mans manager. Fear OF
a break to Senator Foster alone sent
Baker and Stevenson to Piles. They
did this thing to save themselves, ana
not to help Senator Piles. They are
not the senator's friends and never
have been. and any pretended allegi-
ance is only for Mr.. Piles embarrass-
ment.
$50 far as the Seattle senator is
concerned, he is tied up in no agree
ment to the CrOcker contingent and
owes nothing to Senator Ankeny. He
stood by Mr.. Croker at Tacoma, but
Mr.. Crocker failed to reciprocate at
Olympia

Mcbride Overtures Refused.

"Governc- Mcbride made Overtures
to King county and was refused. be-
cause a deal had been made with b. ID.
Crocker previously, which deal was
agreed to by Eugene Lorton, editor OF
the Walla Walla Union, and Senator
Ankeny's private secretary, A. F. stat
ter by which Mr.. Piles was to receive
at least nine votes from the southeast
rem counties, with the promise that
they would probably reach II, in the
senatorial election. 1t was the agree
ment to deliver these votes to Mr.. Plies
that gave Mr.. Crocker King countys
support in the Tacoma convention un-
til Mr.. Croker himself released Mr..
Piles managers and the King county
delegates from their promised obliga-
ton to him.

SOME INTERESTING POLITICAL HISTORY
HOW THE COLLECTOR CAME TO
NAME WARDEN OF THE
PENiTENTIARY.

Prior to the recent city election il
Seattle charges were made that Sena-
tor Piles was taking an active part in
the campaign. In defense Of the jun
ior senator the Seattle Post-Intelli-
gencer prints the following interesting
story:
Senator Piles position in the late
municipal election has been misrepre-
sented," said a prominent Piles worker
and a close friend of the junior senator
last night.
"The kilograms quoted on the BILL
boards he continued. were juggled.
They were sent by Senator Piles previ-
Gus to the convention in response to
repeated urgings that he lend his per-
sonal support to the candidacy of Mr..
Riplinger. Control of the party in the
city had been surrendered to Clancy.
The use of Mr.. Piles telegram after
the convention was to make it appear
that he Endorsed it's acts. If the COM
mittee in charge of the campaign and
the forces that controlled the conven-
ton had been sincere friend Of Senator
Piles they would not have misreprc-
scented him in this manner.
Senator Piles precise relations 20
Senator Ankeny and his managers are
better understood when the true story
of the Tacoma convention. before
which B. D. Crocker was a candidate
for governor, and of the senatorial
campaigns at the last legislature is
told
"The delegation from King county Il:
the republican state convention was
held in line for Mr.. Croker until
Pierce county broke and went to Mr..
Mead Repeated attempts had been
made by Governor Mead's managers to
secure a favorable expression from
King county for their candidate. They
held out, however until the last, COM
ing to Mr. Mead when they did be-
cause it was seen that Mr.. Croker
was an impossible candidate.

NERVOUSNESS IN
 COTTON MARKET Fluctuations Irregular and Trading Moderately Active CLOSE WAS MORE STEADY Rumor that cinners' Report Had Been Issued Caused the Nervous ness But the Rumor Proved
 Groundless.

New York, January 1.-The cotton mar lxet today acted nervous with fluctuations irregular and trading moderately active, but largely local and preparatory to tho glnners report expected on next Monday or Tuesday. The market closed steady at A decline of Sd11 points. Sales were esti- mated at s5oO0O bales.
 The opening was steady at a decline Of 2a5 points on. the old crop months, but unchanged on later positions. In the early afternoon a message from New Orleans was circulated purporting to give the re- port of the National Ginners' association, which was said to indicate crop of 9,731'- coo bales glnned to January by the cen sus bureau. and stating that 97.S per cent of the crop had been ginned. While this would indicate a yield of only about lO,- O00, 900 bales, the amount ginned was larger than expected. and the report was fol- lowed by active bear pressure, under which prices broke about 11Qi3 points. The market was very nervous toward the close but recovered or 4 points of the loss on some months. Later wires from the south stated that the National Gin ners' association had not yet issued its report.
 Receipts at the ports today 3i,256 bales against 49,5S0 last week and 29,576 last year. For the week, estimated, 152000 bales against 2l5,7 ,7S0 last week and 100000 last year. Today's receipts at New Or leans 7026. against 57S1 last year, and at Houston 4509 against eO37 last year. Flu lures opened steady

H. F. WILSON & CO.

the character of the National Gnners re- port A report that comes via New Hork said that the National Ginners hgures were 9,642 GOO, and from this 1t was figured that the government report would show over 97 bales ginned to January l. Up to the time this letter is being writ ten, nothing officially had been received In this market, but we were surprised to see the market ease off on the rumor referred to, as there were number or weak longs who needed only an excuse of some sort to sell on. Liquidation was in evidence during nearly all of the day session, especially during the afternoon the market finally closing steady at a net loss for the day of to points on futures Spots were officially reported quiet and q revision of quotation left them unchanged. Sales amounted to 12o0 bales of spots and $50 bales to arrive Two hundred bales were delivered on contract Influence has been brought to bear in Washington to have the govern- ment ginners report postponed to the 9th. Our market will be closed on January 8, a legal holiday in New Orleans, and should bearish report come out that day, the cotton market would be utterly at the mercy of New York and Liverpool, where bear interests dominate. President Roosevelt saw the force of the argument presented to him, and has directed that the date of the government report be changed unless sound reasons to the con- trary could be shown.
 Hence there is every prospect that the report will not be issued until Tuesday, when our market will be open. The in- sight figures for the week made very bullish showing, and the total amount brought Into sight Is only lOOll,OO0. Hes ter's visible supply statement however, Is generally expected to be bearish, at least so far as mill takings are con cerned
