STOCKS AND BONDS.

New York, Dec 5.-There was much
interest and curiosity manifested in
Wall Street to-day regarding the Presi-
dents message. When it was published
it was found to be so free of matter
calculated to affect the value of securi-
ties that the course of prices was left
to the influence of technical causes
The recent view of professional traders
has been that the message would prove
bull document, and they have bought
stocks recently under that conviction.
Upon the publication Of the message il
was natural, therefore. that this Gle
ment should sell to take their profits
But the chief effect of the anticipation OF
the message was to curtail operations
in the stock market. This tendency
was emphasized by the absence of tele
graphic communication with many
points in the country, owing to the
storm. There was not entirely lacking
also the proverbial disposition of stocl
exchange traders to a feeling of timidity
over the advent of session of Con

gresS. There Is something Of Il prejudice
in Wall Street against some of the mea-
sures which Representatives and Scna-
tors assembled Mt Washington design
for the hubble welfare and desire to
be let alone in methods for the profitable
emnloyment of capital against which
Congressional legislation is at times di-
rectcd. The prevailing tone of the
market therefore becttme increasingly
heavy as the day wore on. There was
n period of comparatively strength III the
morning, especially in some of the stocks
which showed strength last week.
The majority of the standard stocks.
were however. notably dull and for the
most part heavy. There was some
firmness manifested in the Coalers on
the strength OF the cold weather.
The bond market was decidedly more
active than stocks. and prices were better
maintained. though there was reaction
from best prices in the late dealings. a
number of lately dormant issues were

COTTON.

New York, Dec. 5.-Trading was very
energetic in cotton at the outset this
morning and prices advanced to Z
points on the first call. Wall Street
buying was conspicuous feature during
the afternoon. The arrangement to
the wire service by the storm of Sun
day shut ont a good many orders and de-
layed features of statistics, leading to
some hesitation here. The English ca
bles were much better than had been
looked for. The indications Of renewed
activity in spot cotton at Liverpool was
a particularly gratifying feature of
the English adyices: private cables pre-
dicted well sustained activity in the de-
mand for spot cotton in the Southern
markets. Fall River advices We're also
favorable But following the first call
outside speculative support failed to
meet expectations and realizing and
short selling set in causing a reaction
of 4 to 6 points. The market closed
steady ut unchanged prices to l point

1t greatly distresses us to be in receipt
of numerous communications criticislns
President Mckinley for his action in pro-
curing the connection of Gen. Credit Mo-
bilier Dodge with the Alger Relief Com
mission in the capacity of its chairman.
We take this opportunity to assure the
writer's of such letters that our confidence
in the Chief Magistrate remains un-
shaken, Notwithstanding the apparent
mistake he has made in this instance.
The President has large fund of good
American common sense. and it is be-
lieved that what he did he did with the
deliberate purpose of setting one individ-
ual of a given species to catch another of
like description. He thought that few
people would be hotter after unwilling
witnesses than one who had experience in
the same line of unwillingness. AT least
this is the polite way to state the case.

TUESDAY. OCTOBER Is, 1898.
A Premature Celebration.

They are having a peace jubilee out
in Chicago. Strangely enough. Presi-
dent Mckinley. who has just made a
number Of appeals to the people to
stand all together, present a solid front
and refrain from all divisions on party
lines until peace with Spain shall be
achieved, is the principal guest. 1t is
apparent that Chicago is jubilating
over something that has not been ac-
complisked. for it is distinctly announc-
ed that it is not the victory of our
arms that is the object of the celebra-
ton, but the advent of peace. Some
how the loud timbrels at Chicago and
the talk at Paris do not harmoniZe.
The cooling of the dove is drowned by
the angry expostulations of the Span
iards.
of course, we shall have peace, prob
ably without fighting for it. Indeed,
the condition of Spain is an assurance
against another clash of arms. But it
is possible that Spain Will appeal to
the nations of Europe against what it
calls the American abuse of its power
over a helpless antagonist. There is
almost sure to be such a wrangling as
to make all peace celebrations look
ridiculous if they do not already. The
fact seems to be that the fall trade in
Chicago did not start off as well as the
Presidents assurances of return of
prosperity seemed to promise, and it
became expedient to stimulate it. By
spending some thousands of dollars
10 or
features of a street fair, and by invit-
ing the presence of the President and
his Cabinet, General Miles and other
attractive persons. and assisted by spe-
cial railway rates, Chicago expects to
lure the country merchant and his
family into her web. If peace has not
been reached in time to make the cele-
bration appropriate, it is not the fault
of Chicago. If she cannot rejoice over
a final treaty, she can at least hurrah
for the protocol. though even that is
threatened with fracture.
After two weeks, the only result of
the conferences of the Peace Commits
sioners is a disagreement as to the
Cuban debt. AS that indebtedness was
incurred by Spain for her own use, not
a dollar having been expended for the
benefit of the island. the Americans can
not consider the suggestion of imposing
the burden on the Cubans. They have
taken their stand on that and cannot
be moved by petitions or menaces. Sa-
gasta asserts that the negotiations can
go no further until the Americans re-
cede from this attitude, his idea of a
remedy being TO call on all the world to
witness our cruelty and to interpose
by arbitration. This could have no
