COMMITTEE.

 The Council meeting last night was graced by the presence of all the distinguished aldermen except Councilman Blake who had to leave town before the meeting. Council man Ross arrived just as Clerk Grimm concluded his reading of the minutes of the preceding meeting in his best style.
 There were no petitions, memor- ials or communications; no reports of city officers-police offers among the rest
 The Chairman of the fire depa" ment stated that there was a fire in Charles Reed munition factory tut it was effectively controlled and damage just about fifteen dollars The suction had been out of order but was now in better shape than ill long while.
 It was expected that Councilman Lomen might have something to re- port about the patrolman who ran amok and conducted fight of his own while intoxicated in the streets, but that apparently was too delicate subject.
 Councilman Burgh said that he had talked with Blake of the speciai committee on the Darling and Dean stock assessment and Blake had sug- gested that they ask for another week. This was granted. Two labor bills for Griffin and Weckman while working on suction wore ordered paid The City Attorney with profess sional exactness said that motion to advertise the delinquent tax list would place the city clerk in com pliance with the ordinance, motion was therefore passed.
 Councilman Lomcn brought up the matter of the fishery taxation and read dispatches that the Pion- eers of Alaska had sent to Key Pitt 
 man, Wm. Houston and Delegate Wickersham protesting against the Alexander bill. He moved and Burgh seconded that similar dispatches be sent out in the name of the Coun- cil. This was passed.
 The Mayor then suggested that WhiIn on tho Suhioct if might ha we'll to wire Colonel Richardson urging the promotion of the Snake river Harbor project. A. Polet who was present among the audience remarked that he had received letter from the delegate wherein it was stated that the War Department had not received Car" tain Ehrnbecks s report.
 Some discussion followed amons the aldermen on the propriety of postponing action while and this delay was agreed to.
 Councilman Thompson asked to be excused at this juncture, and he had hardly received the permission when a motion to adjourn was pas sed.
 Anything in the line of job work at the Industrial Worker Office. Satisfaction assured.

NEW ORLEANS.

NEW ORLEANS. May 6.-Cotton was
decidedly active during the short week
end session of the market here today.
there being a deluge of buying orders
during the two hours OF trading. Out
side interest in the staple was greater
than for a long time and the wires were
swamped with buying orders around
the close. when the ring felt the full
force of the pressure to buy from trad
ers bu1lishly Influenced by the turn
taken by the submarine controversy.
Prices bulged sharply around the
opening. rising II to 10 points In the
first half hour of business. and the gain
was well maintained during the middle
of the session in the face Of good
weather accounts and profit taking on
the part Of buyers earlier In the week.
Late in the day the trading months
were forced to q net advance of % to
20 points and the close was ofncially
toned strong at a net gain OF % to -
points.
Supplementing the bullish sentiment
aroused by dispatches from Washington
regarding the reception of the German
-eply to the American note, were most
favorable reports from mill centerss
which bullish operators considered
meant a continuation of the spot de-
mand during the spring and summer:
Local spot prices were advanced l3
points to 1928 for middling. new high
level for the season.

points of the best, and the final tone
of the market was firm at a net ad-
vance of % to 81 points
The more favorable view of political
conditions seemed to bring a great
many buying orders into the market
which had previously been held back
by international uncertainties: Liver
pool did not fully meet the local ad-
vance of Friday afternoon, but the
market here opened firm at an advance
or to s points and worked almost
steadily higher. Enough realizing de-
little irregularity during the middle
of the morning, and there may have
been little scattered selling on the
very favorable showing of the weather
map. These offerings were readily alb
sorbed by broadening outside and
trade demand, however. and the high
point was reached in the late trading
when December and all later deliseries
sold above the 13-cent level. and all
months made new high ground for the
movement.
May contracts touched 1910 and

man note. might have strengthened
the idea which has prevailed in GER
tain circles here for some time past
that the war was likely to end before
the new crop had been fully marketed.
and that this idea may have had some
influence on the advance. The features
more generally emphasized by the
buyers around the ring. however. were
the continued frmness of old crop
holders, the absence of any important
hedge selling at the higher level. the
further sharp decrease in the world
visible supply, moderate acreage fg-
ures and the apprehension Of light
early new crop movement owing to a
late start in some of the earlier pro-
ducing sections of the belt. Trade in

the morning, while there was steadily

CHICAGO GRAIN.

CHICAGO, May 6.-Crop damage from
green bugs and Hessian hy took FIRST
place today in the attention of the
wheat trade. Largely as result
prices closed strong. ~ to 2% net

Although at the outset the wheat
market appeared to be chiefly affected
with Germany had been averted, the
fact soon became evident that the
bulls were laying much more emphasis
on reports indicating danger of wide
spread ravages by pests attacking the
already much diminished winter crop.
tinued increase of green bugs in Okla
homa appeared likely, and another
we'll known authority was responsible
for an assertion that Kansas was
counties-the most extensive infesta-
tion ever known in that state. Mis-
souri, and Illinois advices also gave
prominence to details of havoc by Hes
sian fly.
In the later trading the Kansas crop
situation became more End more a
dominating influence. 1t was said an
exceptionally cool. wet season would
be required to Offset the fly attack.
Dry weather complaints were nu-
merous meanwhile from Nebraska, and
there was consequent discussion in re-
gard to plowing UP wheat and plant
ing corn Flowing up of wheat land
in Kansas appeared to be even now in
progress to a serious degree In con-
nection with the crop outlook as a

port Monday suggested a yield of win :

Corr and oats rose in sympathy with
wheat. For the most part trading in

was helped upward by a lively ship
ping demand here and at Milwaukee.
Provisions derived strength from
buying ascribed to packers. Late
weakness IN the hog market had little
