New York. July Cotton review.
That cotton should have continued to
advance Is not at all surprising. The
developments of the week have been
almost uniformly bullish, and to cap
the climax the bureau report today
proved to be sensational. Its figures
were followed by a violent rise Of
about $500 q bale. The condition
OF 74.6 as stated by the government
is 6 per cent below the condition at
this time last year and 6.2 per cent
under the average at this time for
the past ten years. The advocates
Of still higher prices contend that
this report makes 1t as clear as any
thing possibly can that all ideas of a
crop in excess OF 100000 bales
must be-abandoned, and they take
the ground that unless ideal condi-
tions prevail during July and August
the outcome is likely to be under
rather than over those figures. How
ever that may be, today's report ap-
parently puts the quietus upon all es-
Inmates in the neighborhood of 49,
100000 bales to say nothing of high
er guesses. Meantime improvement
in general trade Is reported from
various sections of the country while
in the textile industry itself there is
no dearth of indications that trade
is likely to keep on expanding
throughout the season and that a
heavy yield Of cotton will be needed
The contention of the bulls is that
the yield is certain to fall below the
consumption and acting on this be-
lief they have bought heavily and
persistently. There has been steady
demands for print cloths and 1t is ex-
pected that he price of cloths will be
advanced after the holidays. Spot
markets at the South have advanced.
The stock of raw cotton here has de-
creased materially. and 1t is reported
that freight room has been engaged
for some 10000 bales for shipment
out of the local supply. Further
rains have fallen in the Eastern belt
and the reports from Texas go to
show that boil weevil damage Is In
creasing. AS the crop In that State
Is admittedly two weeks late 1t Is ex-
pected that the damage from weevil
will be more extensive than was the
case last season. ears have been
routed and bulls, flushed with recent
successes are predicting much higher
prices ultimately.

New Bern, N. c., July 3.-One Of
the most extensive moonshine out
fits was raided and destroyed here
today that has yet been known In
this section. The circumstances are
not without exciting details. Deputy
Collector ]. q. Cameron and J. c.
Meekins, with posse Of men. cap
tured a still In operation near
Bridgeton about two miles from
here and also captured the owner
Of the place. Arthur Ipock. The still
had a fifty-gallon capacity. Ten fer
menters were also destroyed. Two
hundred gallons of beer were con-
fiscated and destroyed. The usual
paraphernalia was destroyed BY the
officers.
Ipock broke away from the officers
and came back at Deputy Collector
Cameron with a double barrelled
shot gun. but he was chased into the
bushes and disarmed.. In the melee
two or three shots were exchanged.
Deputy Cameron was unharmed.
and 1t is not known whether Ipock
was wounded or not. Cameron had
a very narrow escape. The beverage
this still makes Is not whiskey, but
monkey rum" which has just as
celebrating effect as the stronger
and more carefully prepared liquors.
A posse is securing the country for
fpock and probably he will be cap
tured within a few hours as he Is
surrounded.
