John M. Parker. who is alice

John NJ. Parker, who is allied
to a dead parry, is a man Of too
much intelligence to believe he
can defeat Pleasant in the race
for the governorship Of Louisi-
ana, knowing as he does that the
vote received by Pleasant in the
primary election proves that he
is the most popular man that ever
offered for the position; know
ing, too, that he will have the
support of Mr.. Barrel and his
supporters in the regular election.
The claim of his hackers that he
will be sure to win is all sustain,
that can deceive nobody.-Ruston

NEW YORK COTTON.

New York, Aug. 1.-THE cotton
market opened steady at an advance
of to 8 points this morning on COW
ering after the sharp break of yes
terday, and some scattered buying
which seemed to be based on the out
look for continued dry hot weather
in the western belt. December con-
tracts sold at 14.30 and January at
1439 during the first few minutes,
or about 7 to 8 points net higher,
but most of the week end crop ad-
vices here met a renewal of scattered
liquidation. Houses with New Or
leans connections were also sellers,
and the market turned easier before
the end of the first hour, with De-
cember easing off to 14.22 and jan
uary to 1892, or back to about last
nights closing figures.
Prices worked a point or two under
last nights closing figures later IN
the morning, with December selling
off to 14.20 and January to 14.30 I'M

NEW ORLEANS COTTON.

New Orleans, Aug. 12.-Cotton ad-
vanced 6 to points around the open
ing of this market today as the re
suit Of supporting orders from the
long side, but Immediately after the
opening call commenced to fall off,
under an increased supply of con-
tracts based on the dry weather in
the eastern belt and reports of many
new bales in central and north Texas.
At the end of the first half hour of
business prices showed net loss of
1 to points.
Reports of hedging sales against
new crop cotton from southwestern
spot firms worked against values and
sent the trading months 3 to 5 points
under yesterdays last prices. Just
before the close there was a squirt on
prospects of continued dry weather
in Texas, which landed the active
months 6 to 10 points above yester-
days closing level.

wards of German trenches southeast
of Fort Dauaumont.
The war office also announces that

German positions on the slopes OF
and Sunday, the French captured

depth of from 800 to 600 yards.
No official news from the Verdun
front since the beginning Of the
crown princes offensive has aroused
such enthusiasm in Paris as the pub
lication of today's communique.
The official statement is taken to
mean, not only that the German drive
has been definitely checked, despite
repeated German assaults on Sun
day, but that the offensive has definl-
tcly passed to the French armies,
which are pushing back the German
lines.

by the French north of Dead Mans
Hill, on the Verdun front. The attack

STRIKERS RUN FERRY LINE. y
Union Employees of WashingtOn-Vir-
ginia Company Start Rival Wat
er Service.

The little river steamer Volunteer
was enlisted yesterday to aid the
striking employees Of the Washing
n-Virginia Railway Company. The
striking employees now are fighting
the company both on land and water.
They have a "jitney bus service" run
ming on land and a "naval bus service"
running on water.
The steamer, which has been used
in every form of service-passenger,
freight and ferry-on the Potomac
River for the past few years, has been
chartered by the employees and plac-
ed in service between Washington and
Alexandria. When it left its dock
at Alexandria at o'clock yesterday
morning it carried more than 100
strike synpathizers. Last night it
returned nearly double that number
to Alexandria. The vessel is owned by
the Potomac and Chesapeake Steam
boat Company.
These passengers are union en-
ployes living in Alexandria, but work
ing in Washington. A majority are
employed at the navy yard. Persons
living between Alexandria and Wash
ington are being urged by the strik-
ers to patronize the steam lines in
preference to the electric lines.
The little "bus" now makes two
trips day. 1t leaves Alexandria at
7 o'clock in the morning and Wash
ington on the return trip at ) o'clock
in the afternoon. Members of the
committee yesterday stated that if
patronage warrants, second and
even third round trip will be added.

dreds of strikers attacked the police
with stones and rescued the prisoner.
The rioting lasted three hours, and
