Texas Situation On Cotton.

NEW YORK. April 2S.-In discuss
the Texas situation. a weE-known 10
cal house draws attention to an in
teresting and important point in say
ing: 1--WE have before us letters from
sections, which have received rart' al
showers, and where cotton is being
planted with every indication of COM
ing to stand, and in these letters it
is stated that owing to the failure OF
the oats crop, more land is being put
into cotton. But here is an object les
son which should not be missed. There
was enough rain to bring up the oats
but after it came up it wilted and died
for lack of moisture. So the light
showers may bring up cotton, but
when it needs the lfe-giving moisture
the experience with cotton will be the
same as with oats. 1t is not pleasant
to repeat such facts, but the cotton
world must know the situation as II
is and not as it would have it."

MEHMED
|SR(QER
Brother of Late Sultan Is
Installed as Monarch
of Turkey.
THIRTY FIFTH IN
LINE OF DESCENT
Says He Will Do His Best
to Give People a
Wise Reign.

CONSTANTINOPLE, April 2S.-The
reign of Abdul Hamid ii. has ended
with his deposition and the accession
of his brother, Mehmed Rescued Eff
fendi, as Mehmed V.
The name is a variation of Maho-
met, it being considered inappropriate
to assume the precise name of the
prophet.
Mehmed V. is the 35th sovereign of
Turkey in male descent of the house
of Osman, the founder Of the empire,
and the 10Th sultan since the conquest
of Constantinople.
The two houses of parliament
meeting as a national assembly, ap-
proved the decree. The question of
the new cabinet has not yet been set
tied.
The fetva. or decree of deposition,
was prepared yesterday, both Abdul
Hamid and his brother Prince Resch
ed being informed early today.
Abdul bowed his head saying: 1T
is the will of Allah
1t was decided that Abdul Hamid
must remain in Constantinople.
Ahmed Ria, General Schefket and
his officers received Mehmed Rescued
at the portals of the war office. He
was ushered by the entire cabinet
into the great hall, where had as
sembled the repre- sentatives Of the ma
tions.
The prince solemnly subscribed to
the oath which was administered by
the Shelf ul- Islam. A mOllah prayed
for the welfare of the new sultan and
the prosperity of the nation and the
assemblage responded, amen"
In receiving a deputation of the ma
tional assembly subsequently, Mehmed
said:
II am pleased to become the frs
