ADVICEs DISAPPOINTING.
Liverpool Causes Cotton to Decline
at the Opening.


New York, Aug 29.-Murphy & Co say
of cotton to-day: Liverpool advices were
again disappointing to-day, nasmuch as
they showed a decline instead of adj
vance, as expected. This, with the belief
that rains had fallen in some sections of
Texas, caused our opening to show Z to
s points decline. From this there was
some recovery on expectation that the
weekly cotton report would show up poor
ly. Prices thereafter ruled feverish, but
without much change AT l p. m. the
weekly report was read and led TO a slight
hardening of values, but even this was
of short duration. One large export and
spinning house was the chief buyer during
the morning, supposed TO be against for
ward sales TO spinners. English and con-
tinental operators sold freely this morn
ing"
New York, Aug 2s.-Hubbard Bros. &
Co. say of cotton: "Our cables state
Liverpool was adversely affected by the
receipts of numerous rain dispatches from
Texas. The official rainfall was Houston,
rs, Kerrville 10, Columbia SO. Receipts of
new cotton were very heavy and Liver
pool was a free seller here during the
morning, causing a sharp decline from yes
terday. The trade are inclined to be bear
ish I'm view of the refusal of Europe to
pay any attention TO the bad crop ac-
counts. From the southwest they con-
slider the time has arrived for the break
ing of the drought in Texas and the mar
ket will decline on the moment despite
the bad reports A rally at noon was bas-
ed on buying for American spinners. The
trade weekly government crop report
could hardly be worse The close was at
the lowest as the trade feel the receipts
will have more effect that the bad crop
advices from Texas"

Barn and Tool House Burned-Dwelling
Uestl Dyed and Child Burned to Death.
Special to the Register.
SisterSville, w. Va, February IL
Intelligence reached here this after
noon late to the effect that the Carter
Oil COnpany's barn and tool house,
out on Sancho creek, had burned this
morning about seven o'clock, and that
a team of very valuable horses had
persisted. The fire was caused by one
of the horses kicking off the gas con-
nections and the fire started from that.
The loss will amount to about four
hundred dollars on the horses, three
thousand Oh the tool house, and fif-
teen hundred on the barn.
Last night the home of Harry Net
son, on the Hissom farm, across the
river, caught fire from escaping gas
and was burned to the ground. A
three-year-old baby was so severely
burned that it died early this morn
ing.
On account of the cold weather the
people are leaving their gas on full
force, and late at night when it comes
stronger it flares up and the buildings
catch fire with the result that during
the past few days there have been at
least a dozen fires in this section, but
none of them have been of much con-
sequence except the ones mentioned
above
