| O. Negus, Warren H. Reck, and John

grounds as those presented to the city

not signed by the requisite number of
legal voters of the city; that some of
the names on the petition are signed
in duplicate; that some signerS did
not sign in their own proper persons;
that number of the signatures are
not followed by the addresses of the
signers; that large number of the
signerS are not legal voters or resi-
dents under the meaning of the law,
and shat the petition is invalidated by
a defect in the wording of the certifi-
Gates at the bottom of each of the diff
ferent sheets.
The bill includes a list of the names
of the signatures charged as being i'm
improper signatures to be S04. leaving
C59 good signatures, which is SCI Short
of the required number.

passed by the legislature and the pro-
visions of the constitution

THE COTTON MARKET.

NEW YORK, July 24.-The cotton
market opened steady at unchanged
prices to a decline of 6 points, August
being unchanged and other months 1
to 6 points lower. Local professionals
sold early, but after easing off to 9.24
for August and $50 for October, or s
to 6 points net lower, the decline was
checked by moderate Wall street sup
port, and during the middle of the
morning the market was very quiet
within a point or w of the lowest.
The market continued very quiet late
in the forenoon with prices at midday
about / to 2 points net higher on the
near months, with August relatively
firm on reports that the Wall Street
bulls would stop notices, while later
positions were about unchanged to 1
point lower owing to continued favor
able weather reports.
