The cotton market yesterday

Relatively, it will be seen then
that Columbus is paying 81 Is a

AS a result of rains and cold
telegraph wires have been in bad

the cotton belt. Temperatures
are much below normal, inter-

the bulls renewed control of the

An increased demand has ap-
peared for spots, and the outlook
is believed to be for much higher

Vice President Has No Intention Of Withdrawing

vention--Sherman Wishes Congressional
Fight to Be On Record Of the Party.

TORS this year. This is what he did
have to say
so far as one can judge at this time
there is ground for the belief that the
Republican party will be continued in
power"
Representative Anthony of Kansas
was not very optimistic either. He
tholght the Democrats would gain two
seats in Kansas. He did not think this
loss would be due to insurgency how
ever. for he felt the insurgents" would
stay in the party and work for the
candidates.
Mr.. Anthony told the President that
the Kansas platform, which is soon to
be framed at a party council. will
warmly endorse his administration. He
chopped the platform might have some
thing to say about the tariff, too"
President Taft would not discuss Mr..
Sherman visit tonight in any other
way than to say the Vice President
came to talk of the congressional cam
paign. He seemed particularly anxious,
however, that it should be made plain
that Mr.. Sherman's visit was arrang-

result Of Yesterdays happenings at

clined to be drawn into discussion

to reiterate that he had tried to bring
about harmony prior to the meeting
of the convention and was still hope
