NEW YORK. December 1.-THE close ~

the dizziness prevailing. The influence OF
the reduction in wages TO be made at Fan

two days AGO. In the meantime the de-

bers for all lines Of cotton goods Is dull
In print cloths there is no change IN the
situation. the market being reported duh

The tone of trade is quiet outside OF
holiday goods. which attract fair atteu-
ton. Cotton fabrics are quiet and present
trade is slow. Coarse goods and heavy
export supplies are slow OF sale and weak
Medium fine yarn goods are showing
more firmness and prices are stronger
than month ago. buyers of large lines
being unable 10 duplicate purchases made
AZ that time. The feeling Is that cOndi-
tions will improve with the turn OF the
year but in the mainline a slow trade is
looked for. Printed fabrics are slow and
spring styles opened are at low prices.
Ginghams are quiet. Dress woolens are
quiet although manufacturers have al
ready secured fair orders for spring. Mems
wear woolens are also slow. but the mar
ket is strong As yet but little has been
done in heavy weights for the fall of 1898.

PRODUCE.

Chicago, December 11-Wheat was
quiet to-day in contrast to the violent
fluctuations of the past three sessions.
The close showed an advance of 11ac
for December over yesterday. Corn
and oats closed firm after a dull day
and provisions were in good demand
at an advance of 10c for pork and 21ac
for lard and ribs.
The speculative trade in wheat was
light, but the feeling continued ner-
vous. The December clique was
thought to have picked up most of the
offerings, possibly enough to replace
the amount sold yesterday at much
higher prices, to check the feverish adj
vance which had been started on the
action of the shorts. But while Deem
Der sold higher the most distant flu
lures were lower, May selling at one
time Zee below the clase last night,
and January nearly &c off, but both
recovered some. The heavy movement
Of wheat which is under way for this
market tended to relieve to some ex-
tent the apprehension of the shorts
and there was less urgency in the de-
mand from that interest.
1t was currently reported that wheat
was coming in good quantity from
Minneapolis, and that 100000 bushels
Duluth No. l Northern Is on the way to
Buffalo had been stopped by telegraph
ic orders and turned back to Chicago,
where the price would net the owner
cents per bushel more profit It is
known that there are large amounts of
wheat elsewhere, only waiting for the
price here to reach figure which will
warrant putting it on the cars for Chi
cagO, and the bears hope to see it
come in such a flood as to seriously
embarrass the clique TO take care of it.
1t was the belief that such would be
the case that encouraged the short SELL
ing. Joe Letter is credited with the
statement that however much wheat
the clique might get, it would all be
promptly shipped, but the bears look
upon this as bluff. In December
very little was done, but any offer to
sell depressed the price 1c a bushel,
and a bid for 10000 bushels was suffi-
cient to CORRESPONDENCE advance it.
The opening of December was $1.04,
and it first after that advanced to
$105, and afterward dropped to S1.03,
and the last trade was at S1.41s. jan
uary was in about a similar condition
to December. 1t was extremely SEN
sitive and orders to buy or sell were
in some cases impossible of execution
within from 1c to 11ac of the imme-
diately proceeding transaction. The
range at the start was from 95c to
93Jbc, after which it sold again at
94Ac and down to 931ac at the close.

APPOINT MENTS
Of Postmasters Made BY Congressman
DORA Visitor Who Wants to
Know---General Gossip from the
CAPITAL.

Special to the Register.
Washington, D. c., December H.
Congressman Dorr has recommended
the following for appointment as post
masters at the towns named: s. F..
Morris, at Eckman. Mcdowell county;
Josiah Rucker, at Monarch, Kanawha
county; I. H. Blankinship, at Boggs,
Webster county; Luther w. Cook, at
Blue Sulphur Springs, Greenbrier coun-
ty. MIR. Dorr has recommended the es-
Establishment of postofice at Angel, Ka-
nawha county, with P. R. Panley as
postmaster.
Editor Hall, of the Weston Independ-
emit, and candidate for the postmaster
ship of his town, is in the city, having
come down to find out from Capt. Dow
cner why his appointment has not been
made. Mr.. Hall has been Endorsed by
Capt. Dovener, as already announced
in the Register.
Postmaster Edwards. the Democratic
incumbent at Weston. has over two
years to serve before the expiration Of
his commission. His predecessor, Mr..
Chichester, also a Democrat, was ap-
pointed at the beginning of the late
Cleveland administration, but resigned
at the end of two years. Congressman
Dovener has all along contended that
a Republican should be appointed at
the end of four years from the date OF
Chidester's appointment, which was in
September, 1898. According to this, a
Republican postmaster should have
been appointed for Weston last Sep
TENDER. But somehow the President
hasn't acted up to Capt. Dovener's wish
as yet, although it is believed to be the
policy of the administration to appoint
Republicans to offices which Demo-
Gratis have held for four years. So it
is likely Editor Halls appointment has
been delayed because the President has
been busy with other matters.
Congressman Dorr now admits that
the report of the POstoffice Inspector
who was sent to Bluefeld to investigate
the charges against Postmaster John
bOu, WdS ldFCTdCle W Tic ldClci. bul
Mr.. Dorr asserts that the Inspector was
a Democrat and didn't give Republicans
chance to be Leard in the case against
Johnson. Mr.. Dorr intends to get addi-
tional evidence before the Postmaster
General and have Johnson fired out of
Office before long. We shall see about
that. Postmaster Gary is not nearly so
much of a partisan as the belligerent
young member from the Third district.
A new postoffice has been established
at Skelt, Webster county, with Isaac
Cogar as postmaster.
Commissions have been issued to the
following recently appointed West Vir-
ginia postmasters: VIM. H. McVey, at
Gauley Bridge; Ed. E. Reed at Oakvale;
Edwin r. Hunt, at Green Hill, and Ed
win R. Hunt at Mountain Cave.
A. Trump has been appointed post
master at Kearneysville, Jefferson
county, vice Theo. Hancher, removed;
and M. J. Boggs, at Normantown, Gill
mer county vice d. D.. Norman re-
moved.

New York, December 1.-THE gen.
eral opening of the stock market was
rather irregular, but an easier zone
soon developed. Early speculation was
light and somewhat confused over he
action of Sugar and Manhattan. Sugar
opened up 1sc, declined &c, and then
reacted over point. while Manhattan
scored an opening loss of Il, declined
IA per cent. further, and then reacting
point in sympathy with Sugar. The
Changers opened easy, but full recover
les and fractional advances ensued i'm
mediately. The entire list became firm,
although trading was OF limited proper
tons. Under the stimulus of strength
in the specialties the market developed
a better tone. but the grains were not
important in the standard shares. and
some stocks moved very sluggishly.
Sugar was the feature and rallied .
points. Tobacco and Manhattan fig
ured for half as much and ]. C. ex-
tended its gain over a point. The
Changers were up fractionally, the gains
were sustained and the close was sat

The London silver market has reacted
during the present week from 272td pen
ounce to 2S7sd. This result was due large
ly to the determination of the India Coun-
Gil to resume its sales of bills with a con-
sequent weakening effect upon India ex-
change, which under existing circum-
stances has been reflected in the price Of
silver. The New York market for com
mercial bars shows a corresponding de-
cline from 60lsc per ounce TO 5SAc. The
whole movement would in fact. Indicate
that the restrictions placed by the Indian
government upon its drawings of ex-
change have been a larger factor in con-
nection with silver prices for Some weeks

ant and rose to within about 2 points
Of the highest of the week, closing with
q net gain of TX. It's range for the day
was,3 points. Manhattan showed good
recuperative power and rallied within
a fraction Of last nights close. Be-
sides the technical causes for the rise,
the arket was aided by the recurring
possibility that decision may be hand
ed down by the Supreme Court on Nom
day in the Nebraska maximum freight
rate case. Wall street traders in rail-
road securities maintain an abiding
faith that when this decision does come
it win be in favor Of the railroads and
the fact that Monday is decision day
with the Supreme Court has made Sat-
urday day of timidity with the shorts

tions were also given consideration that
there is growing possibility of favor

pany and of the favorable statement of
earnings given out at the time. The
slight. recesslons from the best of the
close were probably induced by the
bank statement The large shrinkage
in the surplus is due not alone to the
raising Of the legal reserve limit by the
heavy increase in deposits, but by an
actual decrease in cash of $1,012, 700.
The items of loans and deposits with
the large increase shown are affected by
the further payments On account of the
Union Pacific sale. There has been a
movement of currency to ST. Louis and
New Orleans during the week, which
probably accounts for the decrease in
cash.

The more music. the happier the home
There is more good music more all-the-
year-round merriment-at our store than
any place else in town.
We are selling music-holiday happiness
lin the shape of pianos and organs at
prices that make them almost Christmas
gifts. Not cheap pianos-but good pianos
cheap.
