Hubbard Bros. & Co.'S Letter

New York, June 2S.-(Special.)--lt is now
thought that the deliveries on July will
be shipped to Europe soon as possible,
some to Liverpool and some to the conti-
nent,
This idea. together with the tendency OF
the trade to look for only small i'm
proyement in the government report for
June brought about a better tone in the
market today.
Evidently the union merchants are sat
isfed with the quantity of cotton they re-
ceived in May and expect to make as
much OF a profit as they did on these
shipments.
There is little speculation, although the
world generally Is short of cotton to the
spinners for forward delivery.

Some early strength and excitement
was based on the announcement that
a fairly prominent local short had been
obliged to suspend trading. There were

Realizing sales by longs and a gem

MORGAN CELL HAS
NO TUNNEL OUTLET
From the North American.

From the North American.
Columbus, June 2S.zThe question, Did
Gen. John r. Morgan, the dashing Con-
federate raider, tunnel his way out of a
cell in the Ohio penitentiary while a
prisoner of war, or did his guards allow
him to escape?" a subject of wide dis
cussion since the war of the sixties, has
not been settled by tearing away the
cell block in which General Morgan was
held.
Partial exploration of the airshaft un-
der the Morgan cell by prison officials
today failed to reveal the evidences of
the tunnel, to the satisfaction of those
who contend that the noted raider was
allowed to pass out the front gate of
the big institution. The explorations so
far conducted it is asserted. fail to show
that the tunnel under the Morgan cell
had any outlet or that 1t extended for
any considerable distance.
The cell is being torn down. together
with others in that block and Warden
Thomas is preparing to convert that part
of the prison into a hall Of ethics" for
the convicts.
The Morgan cell has been the Mecca
of thousands of sightseers every year and
its final disposition is as yet undecided
Warden Thomas has intimated that he
will recommend that 1t be given to some
Ohio municipality which will agree to
preserve it,
