HTrRBARD,s LETTER

New York, June 22.-(Cpecial.)-Th Liverpool market came slightly worse than due, and our market, influenced by this weakness, was off on the opening. There was considerable sell ing on better weather and crop re- ports, but contracts were well ab- sorbed. Sentiment is again mixed and many are now looking for a reac- ton. We are anxious to see the mar ket experience a spell of good weath- CT. We think there Is considerable long cotton that would be liquidated If such weather came about. On the other hand. the demand for spot cot ton still continues in Liverpool with sales averaging 15.oo0 bales. Spot news indicated a good demand for the staple with southern mills doing a fair business. Undoubtedly a great deal of cotton Is passing into stronger hands. The map points to better weather and at present we are lock- ing for some slight reaction.-Hub- bard Bros & Go.

AGAINST ANY
ATTEMPT TO CURTAIL
POWERS OF SULTAN

Manila, P. Warming has been
given by Senator Hadji Butu, one OF
the most prominent Morosi in the
Philippines and senator from the dis
trict of Mindanac and Sulu, against
any attempt tos curtail the religious
powers exercised by the Sultan Of
Sulu. He declared that any attempt
on the part of the government to de-
stroy the prestige Of the Mohamme-
dan religion will be met with dis
astrous results.
Senator Butu's. statement was in
answer to a proposal Of the prose-
cutting attorney of Jolo, the Sultan's
hons. submitted to the governor gen.
eral and the secretary of justice, to
cancel the .semi-judicial powers
which the Mohammedan religion;
laws and customs give to the Sultan
OF 6ulu as inherent to his Office. The
prosecutor, who is q, Christian, asks
CANCELLATION Of the sdltan's power on
the ground that civil government es-
tablished in the Sulu archipelago Is
often in conflict with the use Of this
power. The power referred to in the
proposal is the sultan,s right to act az
judge pr arbiter on religious matters
which, parties concerned voluntarily
submit to him for decision and which
chiefly relate to marriage and d.
vorce..
Senator Teopisto Guingona, who by
appointment Of the governor general
represents the non-Christian tribes In
the mountain province. also is opposed
to curtatlment Of the sultan's powers,
and has submitted q statement to the
governor general against tho plan.
