changed to-day. Nothing of local interest
developed. The receipts were in fair VOL
ume 1t now seems probable that very
little trading in cotton will be done in
the local market during the remainder of
the season unl IS exporters find their way
clear to pay from 4 to SIG Gene above
local prices. Advices from interior hold
ers are to the effect that they are not
wiling to make an concessions in price,
preferring to hold the cotton. Mill men
offering surplus stock decline to accept
lower prices, saying they prefer to hold
their stocks for spinning purposes Hence
it is that little is being done at present

sarding the trouble Mr.. Anderson said:
There Is no doubt that the present trou-
BILE is largely the result Of mission work
For several decades the missionaries
have scattered through the Chinese EN-.

coming in direct intercourse with the peo-
pie, and have also scattered millions Of
copies Of different kinds OF books. re-
ligous, scientific, moral and works on

The result or~all this is that a large
party in favor OF reform chiefly made in
OF educated and cultured men, has been

COTTON LETTERS.

New York. July 2.-Murphy & Co. say:
Although Liverpool declined 1-16d on
spots, 3-64d old crops, and 1-64 10 2-6+d
new crops, this market was sustained by
covering of local bear sales rather than
carry the interest over Sunday. The trad
ing in August delivery cotton also tends
to make bears nervous about the stats
teal position of summer and early fall
months. The Chronicles weather reports
and crop prospects continue favorable and
a few weeks more of seasonable weather
is apt to cause increased crop estimates
and bring out liquidatng sales as present
prices are based upon an expected mod
crate yield. Condition of the goods mar
kets of the world is a marked contrast
with year ago. when manufacturers were
making very profitable contracts for de-
livery of goods from six to twelve months
ahead whereas, it is now impossible to
sell ahead at any profit. Rumor gained
circulation to. the effect that European
bulls of prominence had formed a strong
clique to bulge August to 10 cents. The
market during the last half hour was up
ward and closed about best prices of the
day. Expect good Liverpool Monday.
New York. July 21.-Hubbard Bros. q
Co. say Our market to-day showed a
strange inconsistency in face of the good
crop advices, and the small demand for
COTTON III Liverpool. Inc strength was
due to local buying by operators. who
wished 20 cover their transactions for the
week, and who did not care, in the pres
ent uncertain markets to have an in
terest in the market over Sunday. Their
purchases reached stop orders, and an adj
vance followed with firm closing There
was no confirmation of the report current
yesterday afternoon that there had been
settlement of the bull campaign in Liv-
erpool. Receipts continue large represents
ing the purchases for shipment to Europe
throughout the South, where isolated lot ;
have been held until now. Traders expect
decided Improvement in Liverpool on

A steamer. Good Record.

The Oceanic Steamship company's
mail steamer Alameda has completed
her sixtieth round trip to Australia.
Before going on the Australian run the
Alameda made 25 round trips to Homo
lulu. In all her journeyings from the
time she left the Cramps yard at. Phil
adelphia the Alameda has run over
100000 miles, and during the 16 years
it took her to cover that distance she
was not stopped at sea ten hours, all
told, for repairs. She has never been
late, but frequently ahead of time, and
there has never been an occasion when
her mail failed to 60 overland on sched-
ule time This is record that very few
steamers afioat can approach, and is a
great feather in the cap of American
ship builders. Of the ships crew that
left Philadelphia in the Alameda, only
one remains. He is A. d. Little, the
chief engineer, and he says the vessel is
as good to-day as when she came around
the Horn in the record-breaking run OF
IS days.-San Francisco Call.

Destroying the Point.

Everyone knows the man who is no
torious for so telling story as to de-
stroy its point. An English nobleman,
Lord P, was noted for his success in
thus running the prosperity of a story.
The author of collections and Recol-
lections" exhibits specimen Of his
lordship's peculiar art. Thirty Years
ago two large houses were built at AL
bert Gate, London, the size and cost of
which seemed likely to prohibit ten
ants from hiring them. A wag chris
tened them malta and Gibraltar, be.
cause they can never be taken" Lord
P thought this an excellent joke,
and ran round the town, saying to every
friend he met: 81 say, do you know
what they call those houses at Albert
Gate? They call them Malta and Glib
raltar, because they can never let them.
Isn't it awfully good?" Someone told
Lord P the old riddle, "Why was the
elephant the last animal to get into the
ark?" to which the answer is, because
he had to pack his trunk" Lord P
asked the riddle of the neD e41em.she
met, and gave as the answer because he
had to- pack his portmanteau. ."-Youth'a
