NEW ORLEANs COTTON.

New Orleans. May 26.-Spot cotton was steady with prices unchanged Middlng II 4c Sales were 1,700 bales the spot and 100 to arrive. Futures opened steady yesterday. as a result of general belief that the advance in futures caused by the re- ports of storm damage was much greater than the true conditions warranted. While the weather map showed light 10 moderate heavy showers in many sections of the belt there were no such torTential down pours as have been experienced throughout the belt of late.
 Added to this feature was the forecast for fair weather in the western portion of the belt. and these factors worked toward a much lower market. The heaviest de- cline occurred when the weekly weather re- port was announced shortly before the noon hour This report was considerably more favorable than had been expected and brought about a marked recession in val ues. At the close. which was steady, the active months were 22 to 32 points below the close yesterday.

The strike of ore on the O. K. mine, owned by N. M. Richardson and sons is said to be opening up bigger and better every day. They will continue work on the property for some time.
 Dr. John T. Davis arrived from San Francisco few days ago and it is un- derstood will at once begin active min- ing operations south of Kingman. He is backed by capitalists and will do a great deal of work on his properties before the hot weather sets in.
 Col. H. G. Heffron, who has been temporarily in charge of the Gold Road mines, departed last Tuesday evening to Los Angeles, from which place he will go into the Nevada fields on business for the Posey and Baily people. Col. Heffron is one of the cleverest mining men in the business and makes friends wherever he goes.
 T. A. Mccullough passed through Kingman Thursday evening on his way to Needles, where he will look after the sampling of carload of lead concentrates. Mir. Mccullough is op- erating the old Tennessee mill, which was recently remodeled and put in commission for the handling of lead zinc ores. Associated with Mir. Nc Collough is Charles w. Kinne, one of the best all-around millmen and met allurgists in the territory. The mill has been doing excellent work and has turned out several carloads of zinc. It is understood that while the zinc and lead markets are low arrangements have been made to settle on the aver age price for the metals during the year. This arrangement will give the smelter and producer a square deal.
 Foster and Murphy have force of men at work on the Atlantic and Pa cific mining claims, near Thumb Butte, over in the Union Pass country. The properties are owned by Messrs. Potts, Kimerly and Hogan and are said to have excellent showing of ore. Sev- eral other shafts being sunk on the group, but the one main shaft will be sunk at the intersection of the Allan tic x Pacific claims. At that place a fine body of rich ore was opened up about year ago by Messrs. Potts and Hogan. Mr. Foster went into Los An geles last week and it is understood will make purchase of machinery for the property.
