Special Dispatch TO The Evening Star.
NEW YORK, January Am increased
demand for cotton in Liverpool was the
feature of today's foreign market, improved
trade conditions at Manchester being re-
sponsible for the demand In the local
market fluctuations were narrow and the
volume of business light, as the result of
increased receipts at Galveston and New
Orleans. The opposing factions in this mar
ket are now about equal in strength and
have established an equilibrium which pre-
vents activity.
The decrease in acreage is relied upon by
the believers in higher prices, while the
bears are confident that a heavy movement
Will ensue before the LIST of February and
Will force a reduction in rates.
Present indications are seemingly In favor
OF the bear element, and the bulls lack the
aggressfveness necessary to discount the
future. The narrowness of the market
may triumph over all other considerations
and prevent any marked changes either
way.

should be bound by the action of the eau
Gus.
From various parts of the hall came cries
OF point of ORDER For time there was
considerable confusion. Chairman Holman

FOR HAVING NO RENDERS.
Gov. Brown and other Railway PresI-
dents to Be Arrested.


Special Dispatch to The Evening Star
BALTIMORE. Md, January 1T is CIV
en- out at the police department today that
Gov. Brown will be arrested tomorrow
He will have excellent company, too With
him will be President Rilwan of the City
Passenger Railway Company and Presi-
dent McLane of the Lake Roland Elevated.
1t is all a matter of street car tenders.
Gov. Brown is president of the Baltimore
Traction Company. In the past two years
about seventy-fve people have been killed
in this city by the street cars.
Ordinance after ordinance has been pass
ed compelling the companies to adopt fem
ders. but without any effect.
Finally an ordinance was passed by the
city council and signed by Mayor Latrobe
on October u 1874. which required all city
passenger railway companies using the
streets of the city to provide for each car
a fender with both front and wheel
guards"
The law further provides that failure on
the part of the companies to comply with
the provisions of this ordinance within
three months after the date of it's APP
prevail shall subject such company so in
default 10 tine or penalty OF s. day for
each car operated without tenders"
This provision places the enforcement of
the law In the hands of Marshal Frey and
the police. Today the entire force is at
work tIE0irS the number of cars running
without Tenders and tonight Marshal Frey
VIII receive the reports and at once take
steps TO prosecute the violators of the law.
The failure OF all the companies to have
The cars equipped is not due to any In
tention upon their part to ignore the pro-
visions OF the law. On the ortrary, all
of them will put on tenders but those
failing to DO so I'm time say that the period
allowed by the ordinance-three months
was too short and that IL was impossible
TO comply with its provisions in the time
given. This is the reason Gov. Brown
gives for the failure of the traction to
have its tenders in operation today.
