COTTON LETTER.

E New York, Nov. 5.-(SpeciaL1-T mar ket today was rather nervous. January opened at 7.97, advanced to s.G7, lost the en- ttire gain and then on free selling in the last few minutes closed at 7.95, with the tone easy.
 Liverpool was again a heavy seller and the receipts were large. Yet there was mo disposition among the traders here to sell short and any considerable buying would certainly advance prices. The mar ket tomorrow will largely depend upon how the figures of the interior receipts shall turn out. Many are anticipating a lighter movement than last year.

New York, Nov. 5.-Today's stock market was comparatively tame affair when con, wide fluctuations of yesterday: The trans actions aggregated only 3S3,277 shares against 549557 yesterday and with few ex- captions the changes were no greater than occur in ordinary times. Taken altogether the tendency was toward lower range or values and the fact that several stocks dis played great strength at intervals did not prevent almost the entire list from closing under last nights final quotations: The reaction occasioned no surprise, for the reason that current quotations show large profits to those who bought stocks few said that to a certain extent. the decline was forced. In other words 1t was brought about, by the circulation of rumors which formidable attack of the day was made soon after the delivery hour when rumors gained currency in the stock exchange that there was some doubt about the electoral vote of Indiana and Kentucky and that Consul General Lee had made a report to the President concerning the Cuban situa- ton, which would be followed by war like policy on the part of the adminstra- exercised an adverse influence and the mar: ket yielded quickly <nnder pressure to sell for both long and short account. sugar led all the other stocks in point of activity and broke over points to ll6ss on sales or nearly 74,00O shares. It finally rallied to jnmTsned jlTs if from ie 7sS to s4 on the announcement that the directors had declared a cash div 1dend of per cent on the common stock; This it was argued, meant that settlement of the war between the trust and the out side manufacturers was nearing conclu- sion.
 Manhattan advanced to 97A after an early drop of 3 points to 93. The market closed weak at recovery from the lowest of B to per cent. The net changes show losses of 1M4 per cent.
 The dealings in railway and miscellaneous bonds were smaller than on yesterday. and the market was weak in tone. The de- cline. which ranged from E to 4 per cent, was attributed to realizatons. The sales were $2 270, 900, against $4.2S7O00 yesterday.

THE GRADE CROSSING BILL.
Mr.. Mcmillan Confident That the
Measure VIII Pass.

The Senate committee en- the District of
Columbia vill be greatly disappointed If
some action is not secured by the present
Congress On Senate bill 1902, providing for
doing away with certain grade crossings
on the lire of the Baltimore and Potomac
railroad ir the city of Washington. In
speaking to a Star reporter today on this
subject, Senator Mcmillan, chairman of
the committee, said:
when this matter was up for considera-
ton, about three years ago, the president
of the Baltimore and Potomac Railroad
Company indicated his willingness to adopt
a plan in n general way conforming TO the
plan outlined in the bill which has been
introduced in the Senate curing the pres
ent session on this subject. The next thing

Commissioners of the District of Columbia,
in order to formulate some plan which, in

company and the District. / do Lot antici-
pate that there VIII be any difficulty in Sc
curing the adoption of a system to 10
away with grade crossings, when the
matter was considered before plan was
practically adopted, but was allowed TO he
dropped because of the panic coming on al
that time, which made any expensive i'm
provement by the railroad company very
difficult. The situation in the financial
world now having changed, may feel

HIS PERSONAL EFFECTS
Decision That Lieut. Lyman is to Be Re-
imbursed for Their Loss
His Negligence Did Not Contribute to
the Wreck of the Kear.
sarge.

Assistant Controller Bowers today rem
dered decision of general interest to the
navy. 1t related to the loss of the personal
effects of Lieut.. Charles w. Lyman by the
wreck of the Kearsarge. The story of the
wreck of this historic vessel, derived from
the court-martial proceedings, shows that
Lieut. Lyman, during the day the man-of-
war was wrecked advised the captain 10
raise steam in order that the vessel might
pass Roncador Bank before nightfan The
vessel was then proceeding under sail at
such a rate of speed that with the distance
to be covered Lieut.. Lyman, the navigator
of the vessel was confident the reef could
not be sighted before darkness set in. His
advice to raise steam was given about i
O'CLOCK, but the captain did not give the
order to have the steam used until ) O'clock
ana the vessel was not, in fact, under
steam until 4. AS a consequence of this
Roncador reef was not sighted by sunset
winch occurred about o'clock, and at 6::;O
the captain changed the course of the YES
sci from a generally southwesterly direc-
ton to nearly westerly one. Twenty MIN
utes later the famous old Kearsarge ran
upon the treacherouS bank.
Controller Bowers, without attempting to
determine the causes which led to the
wreck, suggests that the varying action OF
the currents in that vicinity, which are
kearsarge out of her course as to have
put her much south of where she was sup
posed to be. He decides that although
Lieut.. Lyman was held guilty of negligence
IN the performance of his duty by the
court-martial, in not taking a morning OBJ
servatlon, and in not specifically advising
northerly course before dark, yet that, as
the captain is solely responsible for the
course laid, and as he did not heed the ad-
vice of Lieut. Lyman as to raising steam
Lieut.. Lyman could not be held in any way
responsible for the loss of the vessel; anI
that therefore, under the act which pro-
vldeS for the reimbursement of officers and
seamen for property lost at sea when such
loss occurs without their fault negli-
Sence, payment is authorized to be made
to Lieut.. Lyman Of such amount as he may
show to have been the actual value OF the
property lost under the terms of this act
In this case, according to the assistant
controller, the negligence of which the
claimant was found guilty was not the
cause of the loss of the ship. He holds
that to exclude an officer or s imam from
the benefits of the act authorizing re.m-
bursement for losses of private personal
property in shpwreck it must appear that
his negligence was contributing and easily
connected cause of the loss.

ENGLISH COMMENTS.
What the British Say About the
Popular Loan.

LONDON, February Ca New York dis
patch to the Daily News says: THE sue
cess of The loan is astonishing and shows
that the investing public does not fear thai
the country will adopt silver Standard
The Daily News says in an editorial on
tie same subject: Certainly, compared
with previous experiments of the kind. it's
popularity is remarkable, and President
Cleve1and's confidence is amply justified
Its Cuccess will repair the damage to
credit and will steady publt. confidence
Still Secretary Carlisle will not fail to i'm
press upon his countrynlen the costlinass
of these eXpedientS for maintaining the re-
serve. Probably the most satisfactory fea-
ture to President Cleveland and Secretary
Carlisle is the proof of the public conf
dence in their financial policy
The Westminster Gazette this afternoon
says that the action of President Cleveland
In deciding upon a popular loan was fully
Justified, and cannot fail of favorable in
fuence not only in the United States but
abroad.
The st. James Gazette says that the sue
cess of the loan is useful reminder to
Enelishmen that in spite of financial disor-
derS and tie ''eccentricities of the admins
tration." the United States is a very rich
country, and has "a great reserve store of
wealth among it's people,"
The st. James Gazette adds: 1.-THE success
is not wholly hopeful of the prospects of
peacefully solving the Venezuelan difficult
ty, and is Only too likely to add to the ag-
gressive self-confidence which caused the
Presidents message and the new OIney
doctrine to be hailed with so much enthu-
siasm. We have 10 desire to be pessim,stic.
but we serch vainly for any indicat tion in
the United States of a disposition to con-
Cede anything
