MILLIONS LOST.
Keene and Other shorts Out S2,-
SOC, OOO-Inieuse Excitement At
tending the sales at the New
York Stock Exchange.

New York Special to the Philadelphia Prsss.l
There was intense excitement in and
about the Stock Exchange all day
over the corner in Hannibal & st. Joe
common. At the first moment the
Board opened there was a sale at 1876,
at which figures some Of the brokers
who are known as Mr.. Keene's en-
deavored to buy the stock, yesterday.
The sale looked favorable to the shorts,
snd they seemed happy for a few min
utes. Then came a bid of 40, and
sales all the way up to 200, the dreaded
figure which the clique threatened,
yesterday. Que broker could not get
stock for delivery and a sale was
made under the rule at 200,
and the difference was paid
to the clique. The shorts have
used every exertion to get out of the
scrape they find themselves in without
avail. Every effort to break the
corner failed, and positively no stock
could be had except at the prices
named by the clique. During the
afternoon sales occurred at $50 and
$50, but the price was at once put
back to 200. II is said several parties
are short as low as AZ. They conse-
%quently lose more than $l5, 900 on each
100 shares. The management Of this
most brilliant Of late corners was
given to John Daft, jr., and be has
been assisted in the manipulation by
Kennedy, Hutchinson q Co., the
brokers. The persons reported hurt
r Messrs. Keene, Buck, Smith and
Carver, Cammack and others. At
200 their loss is estimated at $780,
600. A rumor was prevalent this
afternoon that a leading member of
the shorts had settled by drawing
his check for $4,000, hut this was
not confirmed, There is as yet no
signs Of breaking the corner, and the
clique in control of the stock are
confident that the shorts will
buy on their terms. Asyet no eompro-
mise has been agreed upon, though the
street talk is that the clique would
not object to a settlement at from $50
to 200, according to the wealth of the
party. The clique hold all the com
mon stock, 81 900 shares, and their
contracts with the shorts amount to
1851 600 shares. The effect on the
market has been TO make the bears
uneasy, and a number Of them have
covered to-day in several stocks. II
is thought that the corner was formed
for this purpose as much as any other.
There are no fears of any serious effect
on the general market. The men who
control Mr.. Duff cannot afford to see
anybody ruined whose failure would
create any thing ike a panic. There
is no question but that Mr.. Keene and
his friends will be able to pay their
differences when it becomes imperative
for them to make a settlement.
81 encer, Trask & Co. and Hollester &
Co. are reported to have settled this
afternoon. Those who have not yet
stepped up to Captain bill" Hutch
inson's Office and settled are short
about 1900 shares.

Anderson has rogularlyan frequently
reported the progress Of the batteries
being constructed around him, and
which looked either to the defense of
the harbor or to IN attack on his own
position. But he has not suggested
that these works compromised his
safety, nor has he made any request
that additional supplies or r~einforce-
ments should be sent to him. On the
contrary, on the thirtieth of January,
1861, in a letter to this department. he
uses this emphatic language: ~ do
hope that no attempt will be made to
throw supplies in; their doing SO would
do more harm than good"
On the fifth Of February, when re-
ferring to the batteries, etc., con-
structed in this vicinity, he said:
Even in their present condition, they
will make itimpossible for any hostile
force, other than a large and we'll APP
pointed one, to enter this harbor, and
the chances are that it will be at a
great sacrifice of life, and in a post
script he adds: "0feourse, in speak
ing Of forcing an entrance, | 10 not
refer TO the stratagem Of small party
slipping in" This suggestion of a
strategem was well considered, in con-
nection with all the information that
could be obtained bearing upon it,and
in consequence of the vigilance and
number Of the guard boats in and out
side Of the harbor it was rejected as
impracticable.
In view of the very distinct decla-
%rations aud of the earnest desire to
avoid a collision as long as possible, it
was deemed entirely safe to adhere to
the line Of policy indicated in my let
ter ofthe sixteenth of January, which
has already been quoted. In that
Major Anderson has been requested
to report at once" whenever. in his
Judgment, additional supplies or re-
Inducements were necessary for his
safety or for a successful defense of
the fort. So long, therefore, as
he remained silent on this
point the government felt that
there was no ground for apprehension.
Still, as the necessity for action might
arise at any moment, an expedition has
been quietly prepared and is ready to
sail from New York on a few hours
notice for transporting troops and
supplies to Fort Sumter. This step
was taken under the supervision Of
General Scott, who arranged its de-
tails and regarded the reinforcements
thus provided for as sufficient for the
occasion. The expedition, however,
is not upon a scale approaching the
seemingly extrayagant estimates OF
Major Anderson and Captain Foster,
now offered for the first time, and for
disclosure of which this Government
was wholly unprepared.
The declaration now made by the
Major that he would not be willing to
risk his reputation on an attempt to
throw endorsements into Charleston

possession of the same with a force Of

The best cotton producing region in
the world is the country lying between
the thirty-third and thirty-ffth paral-
lels Of latitude, between Vicksburg,
Miss, and the mouth of Arkansaw
river and adjacent to the Mississippi
river, the counties Of Washington,
Miss, in which Groenville is situated,
and Chicot, Ark, opposite, being the
center. The Arkansaw river valley
about Pine Bluff, in Jefferson county,
the Yazoo river bottoms and the coun-
try opposite Vicksburg, including
Carroll, Tensas, Madison parishes and
the country lying between the Qua
chita and Red rivers are included in
this fertile cotton region. The aver
age product. of a large portion of this
territory is nineteen -tWentieths Of a
bale per acre, being 81 per cent Of a
bale in Washington county, 81 per
cent in Chicot, Ark, and 50 per cent
in East Carroll parish, La. The lands
cultivated in cotton through that sec
ton are nearly all alluyial or bottom
lands, and require no fertilizing, and
though many plantations have been
regularly used for cotton culture fol
from thirty to forty years, their
producing power does not seem to
have been impaired, and though il
cannot be expected that they will last
always without fcrtilizing material, it
will be many years yet before any
diminution will be noted in the pro-
ducing power Of these rich lands.
While the country alluded to is
superior in its ability to produce cot
ton, hal around this market is only
second in the liberality of its yield.
The northern counties Of Mississippi
turn out nearly 100000 bales pei
annum, as viii be seen by the follow.

Bennett and Stewards Down.
Town Building.


A New York letter says: There is I
story about town that the New York
Herald had bought Stewards down,
town store at Broadway and Chamber.
street for its publication office. Mr..
Bennett was disguised when the Park
Bank put a statelier mansion than hi.
own next door to him on Broadway.
and he was still more disgusted when
the new postofice building lowered
above him. Now that there is talk Of
putting up a ten story building at the
corner OF Ann and Park Row, he il
inclined to sell out. 1t is not probable
that he will get as much as
his father gave for the present site,
for it will be remembered that after
he thought he had purchased the lot
for about half a million Mr.. Barnum
came smilingly forward and put in a
claim of 1890 900 for his lease of the
property, of which Mr.. Bennett knew
nothing at the time be completed the
bargain. The Stewart building is
only used now as a place of storage,
and Judge Hilton is anxious to get it
of his hands, provided he can get his
price for it.
