PUEBLOS ON THE WAR PATHc
Indian Uprising in New Mexico Cause
or Great Apprehension.

East Las Vegas. N. NJ, May 10
An uprising of serious proportions has
broken out among the Pueblo Indians
at Taos, seventy miles northwest of
here, and tonight troops are hurrying
by a special train from Santa Fe to
check a possible massacre of white
ranchers.
The Indians have cut all telephone
and telegraph wires from Taos, but
reports indicate that the depredations
have been confined to an attack on
the wife and children of L. L. Myers
a homesteader, the cutting of fences
and the theft of horses and cattle.
Further attacks are feared by ran
chers, and Judge John r.. McFee, con-
Quoting court at Taos, today issued
an urgent demand for troops to Gov
ernor Miles. He declared a massacre
was imminent. The Governor imme-
diately ordered fifty men of the Ma
tional Guard to Taos. The guards
men will reach Taos tomorrow morn
ine.
A company at Santa Fe is in readi-
ness to march at moments notice.
The uprising of the Pueblos. who
for years have been peaceful, is be-
lieved to have been caused by the
punishment of Pueblos by Territorial
officers.
For several weeks ranchers near
Taos have found their fences cut and
their stock missing. The discomfort
of the Indians eliminated yesterday
In the attack on the Myers household.
The taking Of the census is also be-
lieved to have caused much unrest
among the Indians. When the enum-
orators reached Santo Domingo, and
San Dia, the Indians refused all in
formation concerning members of the
tribes and threatened the numera-
tors with violence.
1t was only after the census takers
had threatened to bring troops and
former Governor Curry had gone per-
sonally to the chiefs and reassured
them, that they finally consented to
answer questions.
Several eastern artists are believed
TO be in or near Taos, which was once
headquarters of Kit Carson, making
sketches of Indian life.

NAVAL FIGHTER LAUNCH.

Uncle Sans "FlOrida" Slides OF the
Ways.

New York, May 12.-The biggest
ship in the American navy slid off the
ways today at the New York navy
yard, when the battleship Florida
dropped into the water. Later on,
when the Arkansas and the Wyoming
now under construction, are afloat,
three thousand tons, difference suf-
hcient to make a pretty good little
inner in itself The Florida herself is
by no means finished, for as he went
off the ways today she was only about
GO per cent. advanced towards COM
pletion, which means that she was
not much more than a vast empty
hull and still awaits all Of the thou
sand boilers and main and secondary
engines and armor and equipment
that go to make up the ship ready for
commission.
There were present to see the big
ship glide into the water the Vice
freSldent or the United States, the
Secretary of the Navy and the laval
attaches Of all the Powers and a
crowd of $4,000 enthusiasts, whom
lowering skies and intermittent rains
had failed to keep away.
AS the leViathan go under way
there was an enormous creaking, the
sliding and permanent ways slowly
drew apart and Miss Elizabeth Flem-
ing, daughter of a former Governor of
Florida, sent the christening cham
pagnc bottle crashing against the
ships side. The ship slowly and pom
dcrOusly glidcd down the ways, with

COTTON MARKET STRONG.
RISE IN PRICES VERY LIKELY
BULLS HOLD WHIP HAND.
Some Unbiased Observers Predict Adj
vance to II Cents-The Situation.

New York, May 13.-Unquestion-
ably the bull hand has been on the
lever during the past week when
prices have advanced SO to 81 a bale
on the present crop and $3.50 to SO
on the new crop. An interesting fea-
ture Of the week is that August and
September have begun to wake up.
July has been really the centre Of
events however, and the May option.
some extent been relegated to the
background. Many shorts have not a
great deal Of time remaining in which
to make large deliveries If they intend
to do so. The story is that the South
has been secured for cotton to send
here without the success which was
at one time expected. Some unbiased
observer puts the situation in this
blunt fashion:
"The bears have been whipped and
cotton Is going to II cents"
However this may be. the tone Of
late has undoubtedly been strong
Spinners' takings have recently in
creased sharply. Receipts at the ports
and interior towns have been small.
The statistical position has steadily
gained strength. The spot demand at
the South Is said to have been In
creased materially and prices have
been buoyant.
At Liverpool the spot sales have
ranged from 10000 to $1,000 bales
day At Alexandria, Egypt, prices
have advanced over 20 points. The
certifcated stock here, which was re-
Gently increased rapidly. has latterly
turned the other way. Moderate de-
creases have taken place. The other
day freight room was engaged for
$4,000 bales for shipment to Europe
and $4,000 to $4,000 to be sent South.
On Thursday over 5000 bales were
actually exported from New York;
more than 5000 ables were sold in
addition. According to the govern
ment reports that rainfall has been
much below normal of late in Texas,
Alabama and Mississippi as we'll as
In Louisiana, Arkansas, Florida. Fall
Rivers sales of print cloths show some
tendency In increase. Yet 1t Is true
that some Of the crop reports from
the South are very favorable. The
outlook in Texas Is said to be on the
whole good. Leading bulls, however,
are quietly selling July freely here on
the rise to secure profits The heavy
covering OF late has necessarily re-
duced the short interest materially.
General speculation suffers from the
fact that the market Is so largely
dominated by a pool. With current
prices of cotton so high 1t is expect
ed that the South will bend every en-
ergy to raise as big a crop as possible.
On the whole bullish influences, as
may be gathered from the sharp ad-
vance. have predominated Friday

In prices. This was followed by a set
