NEW YORK, Dec 16.-To-day's market
did not materially differ from those Of the
preceding days. Railroads. more especially
the high-priced ones, remain strong. and
copper was erratic and weak. The con-
tinuance of good earnings in rails is of
material help, and in a dull market like
this stocks generally go from weak into
strong hands. No great change is antici-
pated during the rest Of this week and IL
would seem that the big traders would
rather go slow and be sure that no money
disturbances will take place. The Wander
bilts were the strong feature of the mar
ket. General opinion is that next Thurs
day the A"malgamated dividend will be
the market there can be no positive i'm
provement. The general opinion is that
the dividend will be at a rate Of 4 per cent.

Hogs-Receipts, $500; shipments. 300.
There was an average Monday run for
hogs and the quality was better han usual
at this time in the week. there being a
large percentage of desirable heavy hogs.
In harmony with reports from other
places statesmen here were asking very
strong prices at the start, evidently more
than buyers expected to pay, and the re-
suit was rather a slow trade at the be-
ginning. Later, however, witt concessions
from both buyers and sellers, a basis for
operations was established, and the
market was reasonably active, with pack
ers and shippers buying. There was a
strong tendency to discriminate against
the light averages, and it is probable that
sales of that class were little if any bet
ter than Saturday, but in most instances
the hogs of desirable weight and uniform
quality were considered about sc higher,
although there were no sales reported above
the extreme top at the close of last week.
1t can hardly be said that competition was
| strong at prevailing prices, but the sup
ply was all exhausted and the last sales
were considered steady, compared with
the opening. The extreme range In prices
was from S5.50Q6.5O, and a very large pro-
portion of the supply sold above $5.6I12.

Have Learned a Lesson.

Before the exact proportions of the
cotton crop Of 1900 will have been de-
termined, the cotton experts are at
work estimating from early conditions
what the size of the crop for 1901 will
be. Owing to the extraordinary short
age in the corn and hay crop in Mis-
sissippi the year just passed. Itmay be
put down that there will be an increase
in the acreage of all cereals the com
ing planting season. Thousands OF
bushels of corn have already been ship
ped into the state from the northwest
with which to make next years crop,
and this fact is impressing the small
farmer with the paramount necessity OF
raising his own feedstuffs. Any sys-
tenn of agriculture which requires the
buying of one product with which to
raise another, that is just as indigenous
to native soil, must prove losing OPP
GRAFTON, and many planters of the state
have thoroughly learned this lesson.
Another factor OF more serious nat
ure and which, it is believed, will re-
suit in diminution of the cotton acre
age is the continual departure of farm
laborers to the towns and cities, where
they are beginning to learn they can
receive better wages than are paid in
the country. Those who are acquaint-
with the conditions in the state say
that hundreds of negroes leaving the
rural sections for the cities where they
are paid 81 day to SO cents on the
farm. Without requisite labor on the
farm, cotton can not be grown and
made. and If the amount of this labor
is on the decrease, it follows that the
cotton crop is going to be a minimum
crop. 1t is thus believed that the crop
of 1901 can not be larger, and possibly
can not be as large as the crop of 1900.
