Hubbard Bros. & Co.'s Letter

New York, April 1.-(Special.) )--The market was exceptionally steady with good demand. due to satisfactory ca bles with yarns at Manchester reported hardening. Room traders were nerv- ous and Wall street interest both bought and sold with some liquidation on the advance.
 Some anticipatory covering In view of the week end holidays supported prices, the market being stubborn dur ing the day. Continued complaints of backwardness of the crop are at hand, which Is being overcome considerably. An immense fertilizer movement Is noted in parts of Georgia. Too much moisture is mentioned from Memphis to Oklahoma
 With private foreign advices opti- mistic and hopeful reports of the cot ton goods situation here 1t appears that prices will probably be well held till after the holidays.

SUCGS WILL BRING
MANOAMUS SUIT
HIGHWAY COMM SSiONER WANTS
WARRANTS TO ISSUE TO FULL
EXTENT OF APPROPRIATION.

Oklahoma City, Okla, Jan. IS
State Highway Commissioner Sidney
Suggs has employed council and will
bring suit to mandamus State Audi
tor Leo Meyer to issue warrants to
the full extent of the $4,000 appro-
priation made by the last legislature
for the salaries and expenses OF the
office of Highway Commissioner.
Following an opinion by the attor-
ney general, Auditor Meyer refused
to issue warrants against this appro-
priation in excess of the amount col
lecteG by the state highway depart
ment from the 81 tax levied against
automobiles. Only about $4,000 has
been collected from this source, a
number of automobile owners having
failed to pay the tax, although it IS
past due. The attorney general Ia
kes the position that it was the in
tention of the legislature that the
office should be self supporting.

To Represent chickasaws,

Muskogee. Okla, Jan. 2S.-Advice
received here from Washington IS to
the effect that Governor Douglas IL
Johnston of the Chickasaw nation
seriously contemplates the appoint
ment of Melvin Cornish of McAlestdr
as an additional legal representative
of the tribe at Washington. 1t will
be remembered that Cornish first
attained fame as a member of the
law firm of Mansfield. McMurray e
Cornish, which pulled down 4 fee OF
s75O,OO0 for handling certain citizen
ship matters for the Cbickasaws a
few years ago. 1t is a matter oil
dubety, however, as to whether Pres
ident Taft would approve a CONTRACT
with Cornish, particularly as Cornish
is a democrat.
