good hogs and the rest were fair, with
an Improvement over the day before.
Though the day was seemingly against

average weight was also better and buy
ers had a better chance to select hogs.
The demand, both local and Shipping. was
strong, and though the receipts were
ahead of any day lately, all offerings
were at once snapped up and good strong
prices paid for all in sight. Active mar
kets, with quotations strong and some 5
cents higher ruled at most of the live
stock centers, while provisions ruled dull
and weak, with ribs closing 212 cents Off
and lard IA cent off. The cattle market
was steady, with a light supply. The
sales were COWS averaging $50 pounds
and selling at $50; 3 bulls, 1888 pounds,
$40; and ! bull, 40 pounds, selling at
500.
The following shippers were on the mar

New York, Feb. 10.-The general demand
for cotton goods was well maintained, but
actual business fas restricted to some ex-
tent by a scarcity of ready supplies. In
brown cottons buyers were frequently
compelled to purchase short lengths, sec
onds, etc, in order to meet pressing re-
quirements. Beached cOttons were
strongly held and further advances are
looked for. Print cloths were strong at
z12 cents for regulars and purchases of
wide goods at SIC for 3S-inch sixty-fours
and at &c for 39-inch 6S-72s. Prints in good
request and strong in tone. Cotton blan-
kets were selling well at the opening adj
vances. Wool markets were in fair re-
quest for the new season. but 70 10 per
cent lower than last year. Mems wear
wooden and dress goods were in steady
demand at previous prices.

WHILE it was not wholly uneXpect-
ed the news of w. L. Wharton's death
was great shock TO his many friends.
The sad occurrence SO far from home
and friends made it more so. About
two years ago Lindsey went to the dry
atmosphere of Colorado and New
Mexico hoping to get relief from the
trouble with his throat and lungs.
For time he seemed to derive some
benefit from the charge but the dis
ease came on again and despite the
struggle he finally succumbed to its
ravages. He was an excellent Young
man, of steady habits and good edu-
cation. He had taught school several
terms in the country and was always
in demand for that work. During
his fathers term as Postmaster here
he was the assistant until he felt that
he must seek more active work or suf-
fer the consequences in declining
health. He was widely known and
well thought of by all. His untimely
death will be regretted by everybody.
His father has telegraphed to have
the body brought home for interment.
We, with every one else, sympathize
deeply with the family in their be-
reavement.
