MARKETS BY TELEGRAPH.
Cotton Letter.

New York, Feb. 7.-(Speciaf) )-Listlessness and apathy were about the only features of today's market. Liverpool was lower. The port reports being rather free. nobody wanted to buy, though but few seemed willing to sell. May opened at -S05 and grad ually sagged to S.01. Then the interior re- ceipts came quite light, and the sellers of the forenoon began buying back the cot ton they had sold The days decline was fully recovered, and May closed at 8.05@S. .06, with the tone very steadya The market seems to be in rut, from which it will probably require some new and strong in- duence to lift it.

Dry Goods,

New York, Feb. 7.-Today's fine weather has allowed the shipping departments to yesterdays lost ground, but 1t is too late in the week for new business in the way of store trade. The mails have not been pro- ductive of new business in the dry goods market in noticeably larger volume, but what they have lacked in actual results has been partially compensated for by the tone of advices coming to hand from both statesmen and customers. In these there is a notable accession of confidence.

Periured Herself for Revenge.

WTLKEsBARRE, Pa, May 1S.-Miss FL
len Bethel of Georgetown, is in Jail here
accused Of perjury. The young woman
has admitted her guilt, but says she com
mitted the crime for revenge against a
former lover Andrew Fraley. The latter
caused Miss Bethe's arrest after he had
spent the night of his marriage in prison.
Miss Bethel claims that Fraley promised
to marry her, but Tilted her for Miss Eliz-
abeth Williams to whom he was quietly
married recently. As soon as the couple
returned from the parsons Miss Bethel
swore out warrant for Fraley's arrest on
the charge of larceny, and he was locked
up all night Miss Bethel now admits that

THIN WEEK IN CONGRESS-.
Senators Want to Rush Througl
the Appropriation Bills,
TIE RIVER AND HARBoR BILL

II Is Expected That the Conference Report
VIII be Made Early in the Week, but the
Fate of the Proposed Ironclads is a Mat.
ter of Conjecture.
WASHINGTON, May lS.-Thc present week
in the senate bids fair to be given ur
largely to matters pertaining to the Dis.
trict of Columbia. The consideration of
the dollar gas" bill will consume con.
slderably more time, and when it is dis.
posed of the district appropriation bill will
be taken up if it is not cut out by the con.
ference report ON the legislative bill The
district appropriation bill will probably
lead to considerable discussion 1t is ex.
pected that there will be an effort to have
the legislative, executive and judicial ap.
preparation bill recommitted for further
consideration of the provision in regard
to United States commissioners as the
house provision, which the senate confer.
rees have accepted, is distastcful to many
of the senator's.
1t is also expected that the conference re-
port on the river and harbor bill will be
made early in the week, but whether this
will consume much time will depend upon
how much of the senate additions the
senate conferrees may concede to those OF
the house
The senate managers are still disposed
to press the appropriation bills to the ex-
clusiOn of other business and will have the
Notifications bill ready to take up as soon
as the district bill and the conference re-
ports ON other appropriation bills are dis
posed of. They do not contemplate giving
way to other bills, except those to which
no opposition is made until the last Of the
appropriation bills shall be passed. There
are still three appropriation bills which
have not received the attention of the SEN
ate. These are the District of Colum bia,
Notifications and general deficiency.
The house probably will devote much of
its time during the week to the considera7
ton of conference reports on appropriation
bills 1t is expected that the conference
reports on both the naval and river and
harbor bills will be presented, and on both
lively fights are anticipated The senate
amendments to the latter bill, placing hall
dozen additional projects under the con
tract system at II cost of about $4,000, 600
will attract the bulk of the opposition, and
in case the senate does mot yield to the
house on the naval bill in respect to the
number of new battleships to he authorized
another attempt will be made by the econo-
mists of the house to agree to the senate 5
reduction. If the senate conferrees yield,
however, the matter will be practically be-
yond the jurisdiction of the house.

cities thus solving the engineering diff.
cultics with an autocratic hand.
