Dry Goods

New York April 25-Dry goods: There is some interest displayed In tie market for denims, ticks and similar lines of staple eottons on account of government bids for army supplies. The market is inadequate to meet these demands, but manufacturers believe the looms in many quarters may be diverted to the manufacture of goods such as are needed by the army to good effect and that over production in other lines may be cut down. The jobblng trade reports generally poor results.

Now York Cotton Mnrkat.

New York, April 25.-The cotton market was adversely influenced this morning by bearish cables in the English market and lack Of outside support. Futures at Liv- erpool eased 21aQSA points and spot cotton l-32d with sales of the latter only 1000.
 This started liquidation in our market and prices soon dropped 5@7 points with stop orders all the way down. However, a better feeling prevailed on covering and some investment buying, after which spec ulation fell off materially with the market during the gerater part of the afetrnoon Tn a nervous condition. Private dispatches pointed to generally bullish feeling among the English cotton trade. Those from Manchester claimed business in yarns and cloth was very satisfactory and an active market for spot cotton was anticipated from spinners for some time to come. The local market closed steady at net un- changed prices. Total sales 12O, 100 bales.

Paine, Murphy & Co.'S Stock Letter.

Birmingham, April 25-London prices were fractionally higher this morning. They showed more confidence in Ameri- cans than this side Opening prices here were about one half cent lower, with ex- ception of Metropolitan, which opened at an advance of 1 per cent. The immediate course of securities were cratic, and pug zling, but the majority showed advances This was followed by fractional declines and dullness. The reports of safety of the Paris, changes in the cabinet and capture of more prizes had good effect later, and the market again rallied. This continued until the closing hour when new selling un- der the lead of Tobacco was inaugurated and prices broke half to one per cent. The news from the seat of war reporting pos- sible bombardment of Havana tonight and prospects of an naval engagement caused some realizing. The total loss from the day is less than per cent. The market shows great evidence of persistent sup port. It is hard to predict the immediate course owing to the uncertainty of happen ings. but conservative people are picking up bargains. The closing was about the lowest of the day, but sales were in small lots.

Country in the New
Organization.

Trenton, n. J.. Sept. 26.-The American
Racing Cyclists association was formed
to-day as an opposition racing a~ssocia-
ton to the L. A. w, at a meeting held
In which a number of star racers took
part. Eddie Bald was made chairman and
+. E. Spooner secretary. An executive
committee consisting of Spooner, Bald,
Batchelder and Arthur Gardiner was APP
pointed, and another meeting will be held
in Philadelphia Wednesday evening next.
when further steps will be taken to per-
feet the organization of the association.
A proposition to exclude colored riders
was voted down. An agreement was pre-
pared for circulation among the cyclists
before the races OF to-day at the inter
state fair. and a motion was adopted that
those who did not sign the agreement
before the racing board could only be-
come members of the union through for
NAL application.

to them TO sign the agreement.
officers of the L. A. w. are here. They
say that the order of suspension against
Bald and others will be lifted upon the
payment of so each. They are confident
some settlement win be reached before
the races start to-day.
Gardiner and others say they are out
Of the L. A. w. for good and that the
new association will be permanent.
The Interstate Fair association this af-
ternoon paid the fines of the racing men

The New England Loan and Trust Conn
pany Unable to Meet Liabilities.
Des Moines, Iowa, Sept. 26.-The OFF,
cial statement on the failure of the
New England Loa n Trust company
of this city was made this afternoon by
n. T. Guernsey, counsel for the COM
pany, and special counsel for the re-
ceiver, who returned from New York to-
day. Summarized II is:
The New England Loan and Trust
company is a corporation organized un-
der the laws Of Iowa. It's business has
been to deal in Western securities. con-
sisting almost entirely of mortgages ne
Gotiated by it and in debentures issued
by II and secured by mortgages de-
posted with trustees, the Farmers Loan
and Trust company of New York and
the Real Estate Trust company Of Phil
a%delphia.
The has a capital stock Of
SS75, 900 and undivided profits of $109,-
600. making an aggregate OF 1894 900.
The amount of debentures outstanding
Is IS. 800, 900. and there have been nego-
tiated IS, 900. 900 of real estate mortgages,
the debentures and mortgages being
almost entirely held in the East and
abroad,
A recent examination into the books
showed there has been large losses on
account OF real estate; that the COM
pany had been Obliged to take over in
connection with it's loans which were
made during the boom times in Kansas
City. Omaha. Sioux City. Lincoln and
salt Lake. The company is unable 70
pay the interest and principal about to
accrue on its d~ebentures and take care
of its demand obligations.
The company is indebted 10 New York
bankers on demand notes for Sl25, 900
and time notes $40, 900. Some dcben-
lures will probably be paid In fun, prin-
cipal and interest. Others will stand
some loss. but the loss On the deben-
lures ought not to be large. As mat
tiers stand now II is impossible to say
what the extent Of the impairment of
the stock will be. So far as the local
conditions are concerned, there are no
creditors in Dies Moines. II is too early
TO attempt any definite statement OF the
company's affairs or to predict what
steps will be taken looking TO reorgani-
zation or liquidation.
