Cotton.

New Orleans, La. Dec. 9.-Atwood Violet
4 Co. say Of cotton: The Liverpool market
after opening lower, developed a strength
that was wholly unexpected, and closing 1rm
at the prices OF yesterday. The markets on
this side showed, in the opening. some re-
Spouse, but under realizing. broke and closed
points below prices of Yesterday. This APP
parent weakness may eventually prove an ee-
ment of strength, as notonly the timid long
interest is liquidatlng. but the bears are de
cldedly more aggressive and are attracting
a weaker following, who. with any show
OF hrmness in the market would prove Sc
rlously detrimental to the more stable inter
est by involving them in the stampede which
would likely follow any improvement of mo
ment. 1t is quite easy to drift VITA the cur
rent but TO stem it is al o-her thing. The re-
celpts Tor Monday, neTt. are estimated at 1G-
OOO TO 1900 against 10 SO the past year. Spot
market closed quiet at ll6 decline, sales 700
large considering the delivery reached 70 600
bales.

LUCK IN CATsKINs.
They Are Greatly in Demand With the
Superstitiously Inclined.
From the Chicago Tribune


From the Chicago Tribune.
''What in the world do you do with all
of those catskins2 inquired a reporter OF
well-kuown dealer in furs in this city.
"Sell en-" sententiously replied the
furrier.
Eyes, true enough. If you can find pur-
chasers."
Don't fret yourself about that, my
son. Buyers areplentifuI. All classes of
people call for 'em, but they are in de-
mand chiefly among gamblers-a very su-
pers5itious class-who wear EN- for good
luck"
''Are any colors declared OFF,
DECIDEDLY so. The greatest virtue lies
in those of Stygian blackness-nature' S
own dyeing. Arr is deceiving as well as
long, and we call in the dyer to meet this
demand He transforms tabbies, tortoise,
gray, Maltese and all other off shades
into ietty black. Still, as you see, we
carry all colors, because tastes will vary,
you know"
''What use do the sporting gentry find
for the pelts.
The orthodox and accepted fashion is
that of wearing the skin next to the
chest, the hair Nesting against the mans
epidermis. -
Must be charming in summer
weather"
superstition and fashion take pretty
strong hold on people. Seriously 1 am
telling you the simple truth l know
gamblers whose names are familiar to you
who would sooner appear upon the streets
in the decOllete garb of an African Doko
than divest themselves of their precious
catskin charm. Why should you be sur
prised2" added the furrier. who is some
what of an antiquarian. The Egyptians
worshipped the cat, the animal from
which our Feline is descended, and en-
balmed it by the million. 1t was not much
of a leap from alteration of the creature
to faith that virtue lies in its integumcnt.
The garments of departed saints, as well
as their bones, teeth, and nan parings,
are declared to have healing in them, and
millions OF good souls deyoutly believe in
these relics"
ION, Chicago, Chicago, with the TWEEN
tieth century 50 near"
what is the matter with your Why,
the practice of wearing the skins is by no
means local On the contrary, we supply
the trade at New Orleans, Atlanta, Gal
weston, San Francisco, Portland, New
York, Baltimore Philadelphia, and cul-
tured Boston even. My father sold cat
skins fifty years ago"
Are their virtues restricted to the
realms of dice and cards alone?"
''By no means. All classes OF people
wear them Only yesterday lawyer, a
regular sober-side of a fellow, who is said
to be in training for judgeship, bought
the finest SKIN ip the collection, paying
me So for it. Yes, he said he wanted it
