Rumor of Attempt
to Corner Cotton
Appearance of W. P. Brown on New
York Exchange Floor Starts Re-
ports of Pending Deal.

NEW YORK, June 5-The appearance
Of w. p. Brown one OF the prominent New
Orleans bull leaders on the floor OF the
New York Cotton exchange this morning
was the signal for rumors that MIR. Brown
had come here for the purpose of taking
charge Of an end season bull campaign
similar to that in which he had figured last
year when cotton during August. sold at
Zoe a pound Mr.. Brown refused to discuss
the possibility of a bull campaign. but ex-
pressed confidence in much higher prices
for old crop cotton. He said:
Il am bullish on the old crop. The sup
plies of raw material and manufactured
goods at the end Of the season will be
so small that both will practically corner
themselves and next year very large crop
will be absolutely necessary for actual re-
quirements to fiji up the holes. The new
crop in nearly all sections is needing rain
and the general public seems to be of the
opinion that this crop is an early one,
which is not the case. South Texas South
Georgia and South Alabama will get
earlier cotton. The rest OF the territory
is from normal to late and the present
drouthy condition over almost the entire
belt makes an already late crop later"

VETO
Power Exercised by the Gov

of the Laws.

CHARLESTON, Feb. 2O.-Much in
terest has been aroused in legisla-
tive circles to the effect that the gov
ernor will preserve to the state the
tax system and its machinery through
the veto of bills aimed by Democracy
at It's destruction. Bills SO far passed
to this end abolish several Offices, and
are aimed to cripple the admfnistra-
ton of others. None have SO far
been passed upon by the executive,
but he will act early in the week.
The last bill he signed was the anti
tuberculosis >>sanitarium bill, which
carries an appropriation for the pro-
iect. With only five more days left
to the legislature this week will
likely be full of action, but no eff
forts to investigate the bribery
charges in the Democratic caucus
will be made.
