.Emporia Scorched.

Emporis, Feb. lS-The large dry goods
establishment of 5. Thomas & Co. was to.
tally destroyed by ERE last night. The
nature OF its origin is not exactly known,
but it is supposed to have caught in some
manner from q stove. On account of q
frozen hydrant the iremsu were unable to
turn more than one stream of water upon
il till the FIRE had gotten completely bevond
control. Thsir energies we're then directed
to save The neighb0ring buildings. 1t is
almost miracle that the whole block was
not consumed. The loss will reach on
stock $4,000; on buildings, 5000 or
5000. The building is insured for 1850;
the stock Tor $4,000. Insured among the
following companies Liverpool, Londsn

Clinton Advocate.
The Sedalia BAzoo gives Is reasons
why Sc ialia should become the CAPT
tai of Missouri and Is reasons WHY
Jefferson City should not remain such,
all of them good and sufficient. As
Sedslia is a growing town. with a
future, and as Jefferson City has
reached its maturity and is a finished
town we are inclined to think it would
be more in the keeping with the spirit
of the times to have the proposed
change. 1t viii be little rough on
JEFF, but, if she can't keep up with
the procession she will have to bring
up with the stragglers. She has our
sympathies.

CHICAGO, Dec. 22.-The stock market
was about featureless to-day, neither the
bull nor bear cliQues apparently doing any
thing. Early in the day the rumor became
pretty widely circulated that White had I'M
loaded lot of his Pacific Mail, about which
he was talking very bullish few days ago,
and break of a point and half in
this stock followed. Vanderbilt brokers
were still talking bullish Oh Lake Shore &
New York Central, and in view of the nerv-
BUSINESS and weakness of the general market.
these securities were well held. There was
more talk about HoXie's deal in Kansas &
Texas, and the majority of points on the
stock were bullish. The tendency, how
ever. was downward, decline of a point
occurring before noon. Changers were
heavy On unfavorable reports in regard to
prospective earnings.

during the latter part of the day. Under
the influence of this condition of things
values rapidly declined, the whole market
dropping one or two points. The democrat
ization in the market continued to the close,
with large realizing and heavy selling for
short accounts. The close was at the low

have been in the market and trade by orders
has been fair, but never rushing. Purchases
have been largely confined to holiday goods.
Prices still remain steady. while jobbers are
preparing for taking stock. The hardware
trade has been moderately active and collcc-
lions satisfactory. The market for barbed
wire is tirmer, and concessions for delivery
during the next few months are becoming
less frequent. The Southern Wire company
of St. Louis has issued circular informing
the trade that, owing to recent decisions OF
Judge Brewer, they have made settlement
and taken out license, thus reliev-
ing their customers from any liza
bility on wire purchased OF them.
The market on nails has weakened
and they are now quoted at So. This decline
is not so much because the supply Is getting
too heavy, but because the demand is even
lighter than it usually Is at this the dullest
period Of the year. Buyers too, knowing
that the high prices reached have been due to
artificial causes, expect to do better by watt
ing. The advance in copper has not as yet
had much effect on manufactured goods, but
firmer feeling is impaired to some lines,
ameng which copper rivets and burrs may be
mentioned and on which slightly advanced
quotations are made by some Of the manufac-
tuners. At meeting of the Strap and
Hinge association recently held 1t was decided
to advance the price of strap and L hinges,
hinge hasps, crate hinges and crate hasps. the
advance to take effect Immediately. Carriage,
machine anu tire bolts are held with increas-
ing f1rmness, but are without change up to
this time. The axe manufacturers are still
considering the feasibility Of some action
looking toward higher and more uniform
prices. The drug market still continues &C.
tive, with a tendency to higher prices in many
articles. Gum arabic powdered has advanced
to 75c, and morphine has gone up to So 30
Alcohol is firm at the advance noted last week.
Chloroform is unchanged. Window glass
still remains scarce though in better supply
than it has been in for some time. Groceries
are firm and active. Dried currants have
advanced to csc; cut loaf sugars have ad-
vanced to T7sc, and New York factory cheese
to 111ac. Collections good. In other depart
ments there are no changes that require men
