COTTON GOSSIP.
Local spots were quiet yesterday.
Not o single bale was offered.

LOCAL SpotB WOW QuiSl SCseSAN@y'
Not q single bale was offered.
The cotton market advanced about
ten to twelve points during the short
session.
With Liverpool opening no better
than due, and with the reports OF
rains and cooler temperatures in IN.
West. the logical opinion was that the
market would have declined.
The bulls have Withdrawn their sup
port and seem disposed to await fur
Their developments.
The market was without a special
feature yesterday.
The operations in the market were
rather limited. and the trade paid lit
tie attention to the news afloat.
Where is that cool wave7
are complaining of too much hot
weather.
Calvert. Tex. says: Cotton opening
very fast"
Many Of the local farmers also re-
port that the cotton is opening pre-
maturely.
The expectations are that the mar
ket will decline when the cotton
movement begins, and then toward the
first of the year the prices will ad-
vance considerably on account OF the
smallness of the yield. which is pre-
dicted.
hf. ADD 6Iis --
Maybe by that time the manufac-
turer who owns stocks of cotton yarn
VIII be considered as fortunate as the
holder of the raw staple
Celburn. Texas. reports the heaviest
rain of the year, and the indications
are for more or less general precipi-
tation in johnson county which will
be very beneficial.
Jacksboro. Dallas. Bolton, Bastrop,
LAGRANGE, Houston, Taylor. Brenham
and Austin, Texas. ali report good
rains from one to five inches. This
ought to be very beneficial to the COM
ing crop.
The Fall river sales the past week
were 100000 pieces.
Spinners takings for the week were
$4,000 bales against $4,000 bales last
year.
Some say II is not a weather market
but q question of what the farmer VIII
sell his staple for and what the mills
will pay.
Waxahachie. Henrietta Temple ami
Lampasas. Tex. reported some rain
yesterday.
Liverpool cables hal a better tone
yesterday toward the close.
One cable read: IT the crop is r..

DeSAGAN DISAPPOINTED

paris-There is gloom in the pink marble palace of the De Sagans on the Avenue Malakoff Prince Helie has secluded himself in his den on the first floor and the American-born princess has taken to her bed.
 The cause of all this is that the fond hope of the prince that 1 his expected heir should be per- mitted to come into the world on the German estate of the De Sagans has been blasted by the refusal of the German govern ment to permit either Prince Helie or the princess to set foot on the estates.
 About week ago the prince in anticipation of the event, which is expected next month, communicated to the delegate of the tribunal which administers his lief of De Sagan in Germany that the princess be permitted to take up her residence there for the next two months, The re- quest met with a curt refusal, whereupon the prince brought suit to compel the delegate to revoke his decision. The case came before the court in Breslau on Wednesday and was decid- ed against Prince Heliel
 The prince then offered to let Anna go alone to Sagan and re- main in the chateau until after the birth of his heir, but even this humiliating request virtually acknowledged the justice of the decision barring him from the home of his ancestors was blunt ly refused
 The situation of Prince He,lie is even worse in Germany than in France and in the face of the de- cision of the Breslau court the prince believes it would be use- less to appeal to the king of Prussia who is his overlOrd, so

TUCKER MAKES REQUEST

Guy B. Tucker commissioner, of agriculture yesterday afternoon made a request of the penitent- iary board members that no ac- tion be taken on the applications from contractors who are offer ing good money for convict labor until after the July terms of the county courts over the state. Commissioner Tucker states all of the county judges will then know what action they will take on working convicts on the roads, as permitted by the Patterson bill and the Board can figure up- on just how many men can be spared from the farm, which are not wanted by the counties. Com missioner Tucker some time ago wrote to all the county judges asking them what they intend to do about working the convicts, and many have asked to wait un- til after the July court to reply. The next meeting of the peniten- tiary board will probably see a number of additional bids hand ed in! and a number of these will make offers of over $1 the pre- sent contract price.

ARKANSAS BOATS
 READY TO SAIL
Neamers Ready to Leave St. Louis To- morrow. Step Means Revival of
 Traffic 10 South

St! Louis, Mo-, June 1O-At the foot of Franklin avenue are the steamers Grand and Rapids, a waiting cargoes of exclusively St Louis made products for Little Rock and when they sail Satur- day it will mark the reopening on a large scale of navigation of the Arkansas River.
 For the past quarter century steamboating on the Arkansas, once a route of heavy trade, has lain dormant Two years ago Wednesday the Peters Shoe Com pany started the navigation of Arkansas streams when it sent a cargo of shoes up the White river on the steamer Liberty.
 The venture was so successful St. Louis business men determin- ed to do the same on the Arkan sas, a larger but not nearly so navigable river as the White.
 The Arkansas Packet Company composed of Little Rock mer-. chants and capitalists was or g6nized. Two boats the Grand and Rapids costing S4O,OOO each were built for the company at Grand Rapids, Mich, and brought via the lakes and NJ ssissippi to St. Louis
 They will begin to receive car goes of shoes, drygoods and other St. Louis merchandise Thursday and barring delay will sail out or the harbOr Saturday morning Wallace Byler of the Peters Shoe Company will be in charge 10 the cargoesb
 It is 500 miles from St. Louis via the Mississippi and Arkansas to Little Rock. The boats will b. met out oi Little Rock Harbor by a Reception Committee consist = ing of Governor Donaghey, State officials and members of com mercial organizations. There will be a big celebration to mark the renewal of river trade.
 The Grand and Rapids will be used in the Arkansas River trade for which they are built espec- iallyl One boat will ply from Lit t,e Rock to Fort Smithl
 Muskogee 300 miles farther up the Arkansas in Oklahoma has built steamer for river trade and will ply at shallower points where the Grand and Rapids cannot penetrate. There is a general movement in the South west to revive the use of it's streams for cheaper tranSporta- ton.

SMOOTH SPINDLE
 IN FAYETTEVILLE
olsauuears After Gaining Confidence of Citizens Who Liked His
 Winning Ways

Favetteville, June 11-Although .hore is a reward posted for the arrest of an affabie stranger, mbo deposited a draft for S5,- na5 in a local bank, his erstwhile sriends. the real estate dealers, have little hope of ever setting eyes M upon one o. K. Spear, whose draft wasn't O. K.
 If was through the aid inno- cently rendered by the real eS- tate dealers in their scramble to interest a prospective purchaser that the scheme of Spear was made as successful as it was. Smear has left for parts far dis +ant and the real estate dealers are seeking new customers with their usual vim but a number Of Fayetteville merchants are rub hing their chins thoughtfully.
 Shear arrived here some days ago and quietly took up his abode in a boarding house. He let drop a few careless remarks about be- ing interested in Fayetteville nroperty and said that he would probaby buy some. The news traveled fast and the real estate dealers were soon hot upon his trail. So strenuous were the.r importun.ties that the reputa tion of Spear as a moneyTd man was soon made and accepted as true by the business men of the city. At the psycho- logical moment Spear worked h.s coup. He opened negotia tons for the purchase of a stock of shoes from the firm of Butler and Nit chelL He became apparently anX- ious to close the deal and through the Arkansas National Bank made a draft upon the bank at San Angelo, Tex, with which he claimed he had been doing busi- ness and where he said his money made on Texas land deals was on deposit. He took a receipt from the Arkansas National for his deposit. On the strength of this he purchased various articles from merchants of the city and is said to have taken considerable more in change than the value of the articles,
 A wire to the San Angelo bank was answered briefly No such deposits Then the search began Tor Spear but he had left.
