DAILY COTTON LETTER

NEW ORLEANS, March lit became
pretty plain yesterday that bull interests
were trying another move against the
scattered short interest. which explains
the steadiness in futures in the face of
weakening spots.
Wall Street had the tip and covered
freely. Liverpool appears to be in
fiuenced in the same way, as futures this
morning We're 1 to points better than
due, although Spot sales were small only
5000 bales, and political and financial news
continues bad. Consols again sd lower.
Our market opened about ) points
higher and held very steady. Sellers were
scarcer. owing to the good Liverpool, bull
ish activity in New York and prospects
for bad turn in the weather, New York
reports say that the short interest is
very large, some estimating it at 500, 900,
and the fear of a short scare induces COW
ering and sustainS the market.
There was more willingness this morn =
ing to take spots at concessions. probably
to fill old March export commitments,
but there is no new demand from abroad.

Would Set Aside an Assessment.

Suit was filed in Santa Cruz
county court yesterday for the
annulment of the tax assessment
made against the Worlds Fair
Mine, owned and operated by
Mr.. and Mrs. Frank Powers.
In the complaint, the owners
contend, among other things,
that the assessment is arbitrary,
illegal, above all unconstitution-
al and absolutely void. They
make the assertion that the tax
commission assessed the prop
erty, which is against the law.
The tax commission did not
make the roll, but they did re-
commend the assessment. These
were but a few Of the allegations
produced for the setting aside of
the assessment. There we're
more. and all were alike.
= Among the others was the
statement that the mine if as
sessed at all should have been
as real estate, not as personal
property, whereas the law pro-
vides tnat all claims unpatented
be assessed as personal prop
erty This claim was not pa
tented and was levied on as per-
sonal property.
The tax commission will in
tervene in the suit in behalf of
the state, in order that the own
ers of the mine will not be able
to receive back the taxes. which
they have already paid under
protest. t.-Republican.

should Immediately drive these
cattle of the United States ran

the warning has been constantly
disregarded and it has come to
the point where the authorities
must have some other action to
rid themselves Of the bother.
Therefore it has been decided
that unless these cattle are run

them at public auction to the

in the law, and seems to be the
only way of teaching the cattle
owners that they must keep
