New York, July ia renewal of

market, which begun yesterday when
the slump In cotton was $3.50 to S2.65

be calculated to remove whatever
doubt may have existed following

leading bull interests, including Eugene
Scale, and Col. Thomas Thompson of
New Orleans, and other operators, had
largely thrown over their holdings.
Estimates today regarding the proba-
BILE losses of the bulls by their friends
vary, all of which ran into the mil
lions. For the first time in two years
January contracts broke below the
twelve-cent level. New crop positions
showed a net loss Of 20 to 22 points.
The final tone was steady.

Washington. July 1s.-whether the
Taft administration wanted Lorimer
elected a senator, and whether former
Senator Aldrich was the means
through which the wish was conveyed
to Edward Hines. will probably be de-
veloped tomorrow. AiGrich arrived
here tonight and is ready to appear
before the Lorimer committee imne-
diately to explain his slleged activity
in connection with the Illinois SEN
atorial election.
Hines has testified that ne waited
until midnight at the Washington
home Of Aldrich while the latter was
at the White House talking over the
Illinois senatorial deadlock with Taft,
and at the conclusion OF tAe conference
Hines said he was told by Adrich that
Taft wanted L.ortmA~ elected.
George M. Reynolds. president of the
Continental Commercial Bank Of Chi
cago, was before tho COMMITTEES today
and said that Hines was with him the
day Lorimer was elected, saying he
bore message that had an important
bearing on Illinois politics that came
directly from Aldrich and in reality
from the administration of Taft and
was to Governor Deneen. He testified
that Hines told him, in substance, that
he had been in a conference in Wash
ington and had been commissioned to
take the message, which. in effect, was
that the senator and president ex-
pressed the desire to have a senator
elected from Illinois and had come to
the conclusion that I1orimer would be
a better senator than any one else, and
preferred to have him elected to having
the legislature adjourn without making
an election.
c. F. Wiehe declared that William
Burgess, of Duluth, was an absolute
liar'' If he testified he (Wiehe) told
him on the train he had subscribed
