a definite list of the times and
places she IS alleged to have alien
ated Croker's affections and also an

We will know that a tariff com

dent certain facts, and there the
door closes. From that time until
the tax rate is fired into the face
of the American people it will be

that when a man achieves that high

he occupies, unless he Is a fiend

honest; but there r political in

else of political power, and when
you confer on the president of the

the power of levying taxes on the

dous power that may be used for

OWNING the Alphabet.

Some time ago the Canadian Pacific
Railway company issued notices to GER
tain hotels, restaurants, shops, ETC.,
protesting against the unauthorized
use Of its initials. One Timothy
O'Brien, proprietor of the &C. P. r.

ceived the warning, and replied as fol-
lows, says the London Post:
Dear Sir: got your motifs. I don't
want no law SCOT with yure company. l
no yure company owns most every

SHREVEPORT TERRITORY
SHOWS PRODUCTION LOSS

Shreveport, La-Declines all along
the line in number of producers, initial
producintion and daily average produc-
ton were recorded in the Shreveport
territory. including Ell Dorado. Ark,
during the past week. The daily aver
age production, with decreases in
Haynesville and Homer and small in
creases in all the other districts,
amounted to 1925 barrels, a de-
crease of 3,414 barrels for the week
The weeks field record showed AZ COM
pletions, including two gassers. nine
failures and SO producers with COM
bined initial yield of s,71S barrels. COM
pared with the preceding weeks rec
ord of 81 compilations, including eight
failures ano 43 producing wells with
combined initial production of 1909
barrels There was a decline of II in
number of competitions, decline Of
seven in number of producers and de-
cline Of 1881 barrels in initial pro-
duction.
The principal cause mentioned for
the falling off in field results is the
weather. which was unusually unfavor-
able during the last week. Twice there
were severe windstorms with heavy
downpour of rain, resulting in scores
of derricks being felled and other DAM
age entailed and also causing some of
the drilling activities to be temporarily
suspended. The Haynesville field suf-
fered especially heavy losses in the
blowing down of derricks.

STRENGTH IS SHOWN
IN COTTON MARKET
Buying on Condition Report
Tends to Send Up Active
Months.

New Orleans, La-Although some
thing of reactionary tendency was
shown by the cotton market in the ear
" sessions of the week just ended
the later sessions brought pressure to
buv and strong advances were under
way for some time. Much of the buy
ing was done on bullish anticipatiOns
regarding the first condition report Of
the season from the government.
Highest prices came on the closing
session, when July touched posse and
the list of active months was % to So
points higher than the close Of the pre-
ceding week. Last prices were at net
gains of II to SO points, with July at
2O76c.
July was at all times the strongest
month. According to the weekly state
ment the visible supply of American
cotton is now down to 2943 1874 bales,
against 4,280,495 year ago. Stocks
at the thirty counted interior towns
have been reduced to 634,717 bales,
against 1,271 1856 year ago, and stocks
at all ports amount to only S96,277
bales, against 1,582,196 year ago.
While weather conditions over the
belt were regarded as showing some
improvement. they still were looked
upon as being far from satisfactory
and crop reports were constant sup.
port to the market. Private bureau
estimates of condition that attracted
most attention ranged from s. to 81
per cen of normal, although there were
reports of 68 and So per cent, and one
as high as 71.S per cent, conditions
point to a crop of 10,243, 900 bales, &C
