Springfield, ILL.,, Feb. 1S.-Attorney
General Stead has filed suit in the
probate court of Sangamon county
against the estate of the late state
treasurer, Floyd K. Whittemore, for
$207,2
Attorney General Stead, in explain
ing the suit, said: THE claims are
for registered bond fees collected by
Mr. Whittemore while he was state
treasurer, and by other state treasur-
ers for whom Mr.. Whittemore was
bondsman.
Affirmed by Supreme Court.
"On April ID last the supreme court
affirmed a judgment of the circuit
court of Sangamon county in the case
against Whittemore, one of the bonds
men of Henry Wulff, late state treas
urer. The supreme court, in a clear
and exhaustive opinion, held that since
1870 the cost and expenses of levying
and collecting the registered bond
funds have been illegally drawn from
the state treasury by auditors and
treasurers, and that these officers, to-
gether with the bondsmen, are liable
to the state for these moneys Peti-

Whittemore and was denied by the
court on June Is last

COTTON PRICES

 Lack of Demand BEARS REVEL IN DEALINGS Poor Demand From spinners Causes Lower Figures at Liverpool, Which Is Fully Reflected In the New
 York Situation.
BEARS REVEL IN DEALINGS

New York, February 25.-The cotton market was more active today with prices weak and unsettled, and the close barely steady at a net decline of 16 to II points on old crop months and of four points on the later positions. Sales were estimated at 225,0Oo0. The market opened steady at decline of to points which was bet ter than due on the cables but soon weak ened under local bear pressure and liqui- dation which was probably promoted by reports of easier spot markets in the south and of very poor demand from spinners. There was covering on a scale down but the decline caught stop loss or ders, Liverpool showed no rallying power after the local opening. New Orleans was seller here and while there were slight reactions during the middle session, the general tendency was downward
 The market closed at practically the low est figures of the session and May sold at 10.46 or 1S3 points down from the price of January 20 Receipts continued light but exports were disappointing and south ern spot markets were officially reported 1sc lower. It was reported that Arkansas holders had negotiated loan on 60,0O0 bales of spot cotton that is being held for higher prices but there was still more or less uneasiness as to the position of hold CTS in the southwest. Dispatches from Mississippi stated that spots were slightly weaker and that holders were showing some nervousness.
 Receipts at the ports today 27,S32 bales, against 26,9S3 last week and 42,532 last year. For the week, 15O,OOO bales, against 40, 495 last week and 196355 last year. To- days receipts at New Orleans, 9253 bales against 12,032 last year and at Houston 6772 bales against IT, ,6s7 last year.

Hubbard Bros. & Co.'s Letter.

New York, February 25.-(speciall- Liverpool was unexpectedly lower this morning, said to be due to the pressure of long staple cotton on the market and to the very pessimistic cables from America on the depresison in trade here. Selling for New England was feature early n the day, caused by the pessmistie feeling of spinners and manufacturers, who be- lieve they will continue the hand to mouth policy, which from their point Of view finally will bring lower markets for cotton. On the decline stop losss orders were reached. carrying the market to the low point at the close.
 Bombay receipts were one-third lesS than last year. The movement here was light, weather throughout the south rainy, but no attention was paid to any feature but the attitude of spinners.

New Orleans Cotton Market.

New Orleans, February 25.-Cotton spots were uniformly 1sc lower today in sympa- thy with a decline in futures and on ac- count of small demand. The market was steady; mlddling, 11asc. Sales were 1050 bales or the spot and 450 to arrive.
 Extreme dullness was the principal fea- ture of today's future market. Unfavor- able Liverpool reports caused an opening decline of to points under yesterday s closing. Without important break in the movement, prices continued to sag lower throughout the day. Lack of SUD- port appeared to be the main cause for the decline. Rumors that much of the cotton which has been held in warehouses up to date might be turned loose soon, reports of possible short time and wage reductions in English mills, and that far mers are preparing to plant a big cotton crop in the south. all assisted the fall in prices The closing was steady at to 15 points net lower. ,,
