COTTON.
New York. Feb. 2S-The course of TO-
days market was not unlike that of
yesterday. After opening steady with
prices / point lower to > points higher.
there was sharp advance to a level
i to points oyer last nights figures
and a subsequent reaction to the open
ing figures. The close was barely steady
with prices 3 to points lower. The
better feeling early in the day resulted
directly from firmer turn of the Liy-
erpoo market than local traders had
bullish statements from the cotton belt
relating to the movement and prospects
of a new crop. These influences were
supplemented by a report from Fall
River to the effect that little or no spot
cloths were to he had at any figures.
while sales for future delivery ran we'll
into April, with spinners in some in
stances refusing further business at pre-
vailing figures. Port receipts. consid-
ering the fact that it is the last day of
the month. were hardly as large as look
ed for and official estimates pointed TO
an extremely light movement during the
rest of the week. Early in the after
noon the bear faction under a rumor that
Admiral Dewey had sunk Il German
warship attempted to depress the mar
ket, adm their efforts were attended
with a fair amount of success. although
at the time there was slight sign of
weakness. The cotton sold was almost
entirely for the account of those trad
ers who had purchased before the rise
III the forenoon and was for the realiza-
ton OF profits. Orders from outside
speculative interests were conspicuous
by their absence. Southern representa-
tives found plenty of idle time ON their
hands: houses with Continental and Liv-
erpool connections took little part in
business from opening to close.

BULLIoN-BECK DIVIDEND.
Directors Decided Not to Pay One
This Month.

There will be no Bullion-Beck divi-
dend this month. Stockholders who ex-
pected one TO come will be disappointed
in their Christmas money this year. The
directors of the company held meet
ing yesterday afternoon and after look
ing into the company's treasury decid-
ed to pass the dividend. The great Tin
tic producer has paid no less than
81. 43S. 400 since its Incorporation. Dur
ing the present year stockholders have
been paid $4,000 in velvet" which
has been coming regularly since jan
uary last. 1t was asserted by an Off
cial of the company last evening that
the reasons for passing the dividend
were simply that the company's treas
ury did not contain enough money 20
pay it. Shipments during the past
ronth,'' he said, have been very light.
More attention has been given to de-
velopment work, the purpose being to
open up some new ore bodies prepara-
tory to extraction of larger tonnage
next year" The failure of the Bullion
Beck to pay this month will be a dis
appointment to a great many.

RICHES FROM THE DEXTER.
Output For November Was In Round
Numbers S25, 900.

Another gold brick was received at
the National Bank of the Republic yes
terday from the Dexter mine at Tusca-
rora, New. 1t was valued at $500 and
represented a half months run at the
mill. Additional to this large batch
of cyanides was received, valued at ap-
proximately $4,000, making the total
output for the period named $12,5OO,
which places the output of the mine
for the month of November $4,000.
Regardless of the fact that the mine
has been producing a little under $1,000
g day during the past few months,
there is a feeling of dissatisfaction APP
parent among stockholders. They do
not like the idea of the company pay
ing interest of 1 per cent per month
on an Indebtedness of a little under
500 600. They believe the mine ought
to make a larger production. 1t is con-
tended that very little is left after pay
ing interest and the operating expenses
of the mine.

NEW MAMMOTH AFFAIRS.
Receiver Bruback Still Working On
the Company's Books.

The New Mammoth mine at Bingham
will lie idle for an indefinite time, at
least until Colonel Bruback, the re-
ceiver, finishes checking up the COM
pany'S books, which, it is said, is far
from being an easy task.
Notwithstanding that a good many
stockholders want the receiver TO start
up development work again, and carry
out the plans made TO complete the
tunnel, his Judgment is that it is bet
ter to find out just how the company
stands financially before adding any.
more TO the debt. which is already
large.
The company is now without any
means of raising funds to carry on
exploratory work. but a movement is
on foot to change the articles of incor-
poration, making the stock assessable.
That will probably be done at the APP
preaching stockholders meeting, at
least some of the larger stockholders
are sanguine of such action being
taken. over three-quarters of the out
standing stock favors an assessment
to pay off the debts of the concern and
have the receiver discharged. 1t will
require the unanimous consent of the
stockholders to change the articles OF
incorporation.
