New York. Jan. 21-The tendency of the
stock market was toward lower range of
prices again today. Considering the sharp
break in some of the specalties and other
unfavorable conditions, however. the lead
ing shares held comparatively steady; the
the Changers, Chicago Gas, Sugar and
Louisville and Nashville showing losses of
only AQB per cent. The fact that quota
tons. from London came lower at the open
ing, showing that the reduction in the Bank
of England rate had been discounted, there
was a disappointment to the bulls, while
it encouraged the bears to renew their Eff

Dry Goods.

New York. Jan. 21.--There has been fair
attendance of buyers in the dry goods mar
ket today, of whom a considerable number
have given their attention to bleached cot
tons and orders for these were also feat
ure in the mail demand. AS a result the ag-
gregate business in staple cottons has
shown an improvement over recent expert
ences. Reports from various iobbing CEN
tiers tell of steady and more or less liberal
distribution of strictly spring merchandise
and the business doing at first hands bears
testimony to their truthfulness Some i'm
prove ment is also noted in the wooden goods
division.

Markets . by Telegraph.


New York Jan. H-We had a lively mar
ket today. Receipts were light Liverpool
was higher. prices advanced, and for time
1t seemed as If the bulls were going to have
a good time, but after remaining fairly
steady at the advance for about three hours
the market showed signs of weakness.
whereupon a flood of selling orders poured
in from southern holders anxious to take
profits and under the sudden pressure prices
yielded and the whole of the advance was
lost. March opened at 7.12 advanced to 716
and closed at 7.09, with the tone quiet and
steady. We are unchanged in our opinion
that the thing to do is buy cotton on every
break and to accept moderate profits on
rallies. RIORDAN & co.

What Lincoln Had Lsarnsd.

Mr. Albert Blair, writing in the St
Louis Globe-Democrat about President
Lincoln. remarks especially upon his
unaffeetedness, and in so doing relates
story which may prove an encour.
agement to readers who have sometimes
found themselves ignorant where they
had supposed themselves well informed.
In February, 1865, Mr.. Blair was
present at White House reception. q
general reception, open to everybody.
Mr. Lincoln was attended by Judge Da-
vid Davis, who took the names of all
oomers and introduced them to the
president.
VI course there was q crowd, and no.
body had time for more than o worG
and a handshake. Mr.. Blair was pre-.
sented to the president, and then step
ped aside to watch the show. Mr.. Lin
coin and Judge Davis carried on con-
versation, constantly interrupted though
it was.
