Charles r. Sigh of Grand Rapids
has just returned from England, where
he has been looking over the prospects
OF establishing a furniture trade In
the English market. He is very Conf
dent from his observations that a. sub
stantial and profitable trade can be es-
tablished if the American manufacture
ers will comply with the English ideas
of style and finish. 1t is useless, he
thinks, to try to force goods upon the
English market which are not built on
the accepted lines, but by making nee
essary changes goods can be manufac-
tured here and sold in England in COM
petition with the English manufactur-
ers at substantial profit. 1t is his
purpose to manufacture a line of goods
especially for the foreign trade, follow
ing ideas which he gained abroad.

Mediums Egged and stoned.

A trio of alleged mediums stopped
at Byron and engaged the opera house:
On information which they claimed
came from spirits, they made state
ments concerning certain citizens
which may make business for the
divorce mill. Almost immediately
afterward the air was filed with n.y.
ing eggs, stones and clubs. The opera
house was badly disfgured and Its
manager, Martin ID. Comstock, pro-
cured warrant for the arrest of DIR.
+. 5. Ruggles, president of the village
and six others, charging them with
malicious destruction of property.
They all pleaded not guilty and gave
bail.

The peace proclamation Of One Em.

The peace proclamation of the En-
peror OF China is a remarkable mixture
OF wisdom and superstition. 1t declares
that continuance of the war was rem
dered impossible by the gross incompe-
tence of the leaders and the terrible
condition of the country, and clinches
the argument with the words: Heaven
had not withheld its angry. The sea
overlooked the coast and the camps
were submerged" An enlightened re-
form administration would seem to be
imperative in the Celestial realm.

A little Atchison girl was given a
picture card at Sunday school, on
which was a picture of King David.
The next Sunday the teacher asked
whom the picture represented. "They
say it is King David" the child re-
piled, "but 1t looks like jack"

Chicarn sChanee.

CQ1caEO -C1anEe.
 Chicago, Nov. 9.-It having been learned that the decline in English eonsols and the weakness in French due not to political troubles but to an unsettled nnaeiai toa, g naturally displayed weakness as against the strength of yesterday. The activity was mainly local, with an occasional order rom New York or the northwest. Privilege holders and scapers We're the only active people in the market. Puts were good al those options had abundant opportunity throughout the session to recover the money invested The estimates of the in- crease that will be shown in the visible supply Monday ranged from 1,75OOo bushels to 900 bushels, but they were merely guesseS. December wheat opened from 5Si6 to 5Sl2a5Sssc, sold to 5S9s and DISC, clos ing at 5s14 C 5S3sc, 14c under yesterday. Cash wheat was weak and Ac lower.
 Corn-The firmness which has been a prominent characteristic of the corn market for several days past was absent from that grain today. It was substituted by an easier feeling with the basis of weakness to be found in wheat. Trade was dull as It could well be and still retain the semblance of a market. The half holiday probably helped to curtail business, but aside fro mthat the indifference of operators was qulle con spicuous The St. Louis Modern Miller re- ported crop returns as more favorable than supposed. May corn opened at 2912c. de- clined to 29ha392se closing losing at 1 G7se, shade ao Sellers reported difficulty in obtaining yes terday's prices and expressions, averaging Ac had to be made to effect sales.
 Oats-An elevator concern appeared to have the monopoly of his market, inasmuch as their trader was making all the bids and offers without transacting much business. Tie range of this market was confined within the modest limits of 1-16c, which in itself tells the tale of inactivity. In sympa- thy with wheat and corn the tone was an easy one. May oats closed shade under yesterday. A loss of A@12c was noted in cash values.
 Proylsions-In the first fifteen minutes the sum total of the trade in products was one the close not over a dozen orders were exc cuted, although at the close offerings be- came rather free, but the demand was light. 4 weak feeling predominated from start to finish, and at he close January pork had declined 1215e from yesterday, January lard and ribs each 2IaM5c.
 The domestic markets were quiet.
 The leading futures ranged as follows:

Snn,a Cottnn Review.

New York, Nov. 9-The Suns cotton re- view says: Cotton fell 12 to 15 points, then 6 to points, with sales of 1S9.600 bales. Liverpool declined 1sd on the spot with sales of 5000 bales. and fell 4ls to points for to IS points and then recovered q portion of this. British consols were reported lower in the street rect in the trade Me Memphis received last week and 5si0 bales this day last year.
 IIoustcnz received today 7347 bales, against S55e 53 eales,this day last week and lS,l5 bales
 On Monday Houston expects 5000 bales, against l0156 bales for the same day last year.
 New Orleans. receipts on Monday are esti- mated al l3,000 to 15,000 bales, against 13,sSl day last year and 18.317 bales for the same day in. 1893.
 Spot cotton here was quiet at 1-16c decline with sales of 195 bales for spinning; mid ding uplands SA. Continental bourses were reported n palficky condition.
 Port receipts G,913 bales, against PATIO bales week ago and 545S0 bales for the same day last year.
 The southern spot markets were generally lower. Galveston, Mobile Wilmington and St. Louis declined 1sc and New Orleans, Sayannah, Norfolk and Augusta declined 1-l6e. New Orleans sold 115O bales and Gal weston 1120 bales. The bureau report on Monday is expected to be bullish. The ex- ports thus far this season aggregate 932, ,906 season, The total worlds visible supply. is now 3S62, l65 bales, including 3,06l, ,S65 bales of American, against a total at this time last year of 3, ,45S. .226 bales, of which 3267 026 bales were American.
 The Chronicle states that northern spin ners have taken thus far this season 463, ,25l bales, against 59S, s9l bales thus far last season. Came into sight during the week 3i3,105 bales, against 544,7s4 bales in the same week last season, making the total in sight November 8, 2,619,113 bales, against 9608 bales at this date last season.
 Todays features: Doubtless the decline in Liverpool today reflected in some degree the disturbed political and financial situa- ton in Europe. for the outlook in Turkey is said to be darker than ever, the European bonrses were depressed, the Houston re- ceipts were considerably larger than on the same day last week, the spot situation at the south Is believed to be rather weaker. Dry goods in New York are quiet: It Is cer- tain that prices declined sharply both in this country and in England. Business in many parts of the south continues unfavor- able. Some private dispatches from Liver pool reported the political outlook better. Still for the moment political and financial news has an unusually important bearing upon the cotton markets of the world, and if it continues until favorable, it is likely for time to neutralize the effects of short crop.
