Ruined by His Stomach.

The first Napoeon's fondness for mutton
and garlic is generally known. and it has
been contended, and possibly with some
reason, that had he been more abstemious
at the time Of the battle Of Leipsic that
tremendous conflict might have ended diff
ferently. The emperor certainly had to
quit the battlefield, an ugly rumor says
from severe attack of collie brought on
by overindulgence in one of his favorite but
indigestible dishes. More merciful critics
see in his illness that day the commence
ment of the cancer Of the stomach which,
seven years later. brought his life to close,
but cancer of the stomach usually runs a
far more rapid course, SO that the disease
could hardly have begun in lslS.-National

There was very green Englishman at
West Point, Ga, who was talking about
purchasing land near by for peach
orchard, and as he strolled around the
depot the half dozen drummers who hap
pened to meet there put up.a job on him.
One Of them borrowed a coat and hat OF
farmer, took the cartridges out of his re-
volver, and with the weapon held aloft in
his hand he suddenly jumped into the
waiting room and yelled:
''Whoop! Pm a cantankerous old fighter

the Briton, cool as ice, and he squared of
and landed a thumper on the drummer's
nose which piled him over among tho sacks
Of cottonseed meal and dazed him SO that
he couldn't speak for the next five min

him from following him up, and when the
drummer had been sponged off and brought

New YORK, Oct. 12.-The stock market
was again only moderately active while
weak in tone, and while no sudden down
ward movement took place during the day
the steady pressure to sell caused material
losses before the close of business. The
pressure brought to bear was produced by
another bear raid. There was no support
accorded prices anywhere, and Only the
natural strength of the market prevented a
sudden break in some part of the list.
There were only two really active stocks
to-day-Atchison and st. Paul. The ma
terial losses were Lake Shore II, Atchi-
son, Rock Island, st. Paul, Union Pacific
aud Lake Erie each / Is, and Wabash, pre-
ferred per cent.
Railroad bonds were quiet to dull, and
dealings extended to an unusually small
number of issues.
Government bonds dull and steady.

The Cotton Report.

SptClal 10 inc IdLctLc.
New ORLEANS, La, Oct. 12.-Atwood,
Violet & Co. say: F'utures-Cotton is like
any other commodity; if there is an over
abundant supply of it for the immediate
future it creates more sellers than buyers,
and to-day We had the consequent
result of another tremendous move
ment, which shows at the ports
1900 bales against $1,000 bales last
year, while Memphis received 10000 bales
and other interior towns showithe same in
crease. Liverpool would have undoubtedly
been higher but for the present and pros
pective receipts, and although the advance
there this morning was 2-64 it was lost and
closed barely steady. Great weakness
has manifested itself here to-day largely on
the longs covering, and our net decline is
2 points under Saturday, and New York
16. As spots were reduced l 1-l6 only to-
day and futures SIG, we would rather
buy on this depression for quick
turn than sell, although Liverpool
is expected to be several points lower to-
morrow. Our New York advices are con-
fiicting, one of our correspondents saying
the large shorts still remain bearish. and
the other that Liverpool may create
than expected. Our Houston, Tex,
kilograms say that stocks at in
terror uncounted towns in Texas are
immense. Local banks are charging 80 per
$1,000 in buying New York exchange, and
this restricts spot business materially. Eu-
ropean freights are very high.
Port stocks are 767, 900 bales, against 49,
900 bales last year. Receipts here to-mor
row are estimated at $4,000 bales, against
q, 600 bales last year.
Spot closed dull. Sales, 1900 bales. Quo
tation, 1-l6c lower.
F. O. b. sales, 1850 bales, the movement
being restricted by the decline in futures
and the unsatisfactory exchange market.
The demand is principally for strict
mddling to good middling and middling to
strict mlddIing. Most interior markets arg
about parity with this.
