careln & Richardson say Of cotton

Liverpool cotton was exceptionally good
this morning, receipts light, weather In Texas
bad, still our markets declined simply be-
cause buying power was exhausted and long
cotton was for sale. A few professional
operators helped the oaslness along by adding
n little 10 their short lines. Manchester re
ports were dismal, saying demand for manu-
featured goods small. except for specialties.
Receipts at the ports were 1900 less than last
year. estimates at Houston 2T,o00 against 81
$50. New Orleans 5000 against 2i,SSs. Memphis
and Augusta received 1l,l6i against 1889
Nearly all New York houses, except those
who cater TO Southern bull business, are
sending out hearish hdvices. saying future
markets congested and buying power is lack
ing. There are no weak features to the spot
market still there Is little that can be said
OF bullish nature. Tho demand is as limited
as the supply, and the tug of war between the
producer and the spinner continues, Man
chester should be In line for our cotton with
the widening OF Liverpool and American mar
kets and a few DAYS will demonstrate
whether they can use our product on basis
of Liverpool futures. Sentiment In the lead
ing markets Is in favor OF lower prices.

sTEuBENvILLE. o.. July IA
Clerk Of Courts Stokes has received the
following letter from Mrs. S. G. Hum
phreys, Of Fort Garrett, wOodford'
county. KY:
"I am looking for records of Captain
John Mckinley, revolutionary soldier.
who served In the Thirteenth Virginia
regiment under Colonel Gibson. After
the surrender of CORVALLIS he Joined
the Crawford expedition, was taken a
prisoner and killed at sandusky In 1852.
At that time and for seven or eight
years before ne, with his family. was
living on his settlement, at the mouth
Of wheeling creek. Several of his
children were born there. He owned
large tracts of land on the Ohio river,
a tract at Boggs island, another much
larger at Middle island creek, and he
owned much of the land on which the
city Of Wheeling rs built. His children
being minors at his death knew nothing
of his business. but 1t is only recently
that his descendants have discovered
his ownership Of this land. The rec
ords at Wheeling have been examined.
but they do not go back as far as the
dates of John McKinley's settlement at
the mouth OF Wheeling creek. 1t has
been suggested to me that all the early
public records of that part of the coun-
try will be found in steubenville. I
write to ask you to inform me II there
are any land records in your books be-.
longing to the years 1772-171s in regard
to John Mckinley"
There are no records prior to 1884.
and none in the name of John McHin-
lev.

Wheat opened with show OF iirmness

The upward Impulse was due to buying
by traders upon reports OF too much
rain In the west and northwest for the
prosecution Of harvesting. This prop
failed early. and after selling at 1870
73ikc September started on a decline
from which there was no rally. The
small amount OF speculative business
done by scalpers In the main kept the
range within nc. Gables were indifter-
ent and receipts were heavy. Bears
were to-day recruited from the bull
ranks. The wet weather was princl-
paily In the winter wheat belt. but re-
celpts were heavy enough TO check
buying. The cash demand was Hight.
The northwest sold wheat In the local
market, talked fine weather and agreed
in the general expectation OF an Increase
in the visible supply.
Receipts at primary points were 49,,
III bushels, against 256,5l0 bushels last

NEW YORK, July l5.-To-dhy's
short market was so narrow and so
nearly stagnant that movements OF

had been put out Just previous to the
appearance OF the statement. Probably
me greater part Of the days business
was given over TO the closing out OF

Special Correspondence OF Intelligencar.
NEW YORK. July 1.-THE attention
of Wall street continues to be occupied
with the Vanderbilt dealss the latest
feature in which is the reported coop
Grafton Of the Pennsylvania company.
This has excited the more surprise be-
cause the general suppositlon has been
that the latter interest would effect
separate consolidation under its own
control. including probably the Read
ing, and some Of the other anthracite
coal lands. This surprise puts all ex-
pectations at sea; and. while contrlbu-
ting to the underlying strength of the
market. Inns yet a tendency to post
pone operations until the direction and
extent OF these important movements
are more fully and certainly known.
What has been already accomplished
or is In process Of arrangement leaves
little room for doubt that large schemes
OF railroad afiillation are in contempla-
ton. Even II the whole extent Of Mr..
Vanderbllts plans have already been
revealed, yet It Is hardly supposabIe
that his presidents will fail to be fol-
lowed by railroad capitalists in other
sections. It seems quite possible that
these beginnings may run into a gener-
al reconstruction Of relations between
the leading lines In the several geo.
graphical sections. What new fea-
lures and relations may be Introduced
into the working arrangements be-
tween the railroads It is impossible at
present to indicate. sSzs
