cJTY MISSION BUILDING.

The management of the City Mission have been making good progress to- ward the erection of their building. It has been found advisable to make q few slight notifications in the plans as recently projected in order that the building may be as perfectly as possi- ble adapted to its situation and to the increasing work of this useful organi- zation. The details have been studied out with uncommon care in order that the structure when finished may be at once perfectly suited for its purposes and still economical in cost.
 Architect L, W. Robinson is now drawing up the specifications and it Is expected that ground will be broken at an early date on the lot on Orange street so that the new building may be ready for occupancy next spring.
 The scheme of coloring will be red with gray trimmings, the latter proba- bly, oe Indiana limestone East Haven stone will be used for the foundation. The front elevation is exceedingly tasteful.

Cotton Futures

New York. June S.-The cotton mar
ket opened steady, with prices up 4 to
z points on a scare of shorts, so COM
mon of late, and enerc -tic buying for
investment account. All the forenoon
the market showed inherent strength;
was very active at times, with huctu-
atoms more or less violent. The bulk
of the buying was done by ~dishearten-
ed shorts, many of whom had weather
ed the recent rise on the belief that a
sharp reaction was now due. The west
was a free buyer of August, but sold
July. Wall street took profits on Au-
gust holdings while the south bought
new crop months. The weather south
was fairly favorable. A bullish review
of the week in the belt by The Chron
Gle and a decrease in receipts, helped
to strengthen the market early in the
session. Private advices noted increas-
ed demand for spot cotton in nearly all
southern markets. with prices Lie to rs
higher. Private cables stated that the
short scare in Liverpool was undated
and that increasing investment specu-
lation was placing h market in a
very firm position. Following the call
in the local market July advanced to
S.24, August III and October 1885. There
were slight reactions late in the session
under profit-taking n light selling for
a turn. The market closed steady with
prices net 8 to 6 points lower, having
weakened near the close under heavy
general selling.
