SOlOItS.
The street improvement plans of the
City Commissioners do not please
every one and remonstrances are be-
ing sent to the Council. Many Grant
ST. people objected in petition sent
to the Council Monday night, to the
paving of that street.
North Main st. property owners OBJ
jected to the paving of that street on
the ground that it is not becoming a
business district and its being paved
will not enhance the value of property
there.
Property owners on Chestnut St pc
titoned for the extension of that
street across the railroads from BroaG-
way to Washington st. These were
all referred to the Street committee.
PERKINS ST. EXTENSION.
An ordinance to extend Perkins st.
from Summit to Main sts., was passed
to its third reading. Mr.. Rooms voted
no on a motion to put it on it's final
passage. 1t is desired that especial
care be taken by the assessing board
for this Improvement, to place the
chief part of the cost on the large
concerns which will be especially ben,
efted-notably the Klages Coal and
TOWNSHIP LINE.
A resolution was passed to ask the
County Commissioners to extend the
boundaries of Akron township that
they may be co-extenslve with the
present limits of the city.

New Orleans. Oct. 19.-There was not much trading in spot cotton today though offerings were large and well as sorted and factors were free sellers upon relatively easy terms.

IMPORTANT CHANGES
 IN INSURANCE CIRCLES
J. L. Dean of the Mutual Life of New York Becomes State Agent for Kentucky of the Travellers Ins. Co. and J. c. Cockrell of the Penn Mutual Becomes District Agent of the Travellers in Florida.

Perhaps nothing that has occurred for many years in Alabama Insurance cir cIeS will cause so much surprise as the above announcement.
 MT. J. L. Dean, who for the past thir- teen years has been the representative Of the Mutual Life Insurance Go. of New York, in the Opelka district and who Is recognized as one of the ablest, If not the ablest, insurance "hustlers" in Ala bama, has resigned his position to accept the Kentucky State Agency of The Trav- elers' Insurance Co. of Hartford, Conn. MT. Dean will not only have charge of the Life Department of that sterling com panv, but also the Accident. Liability and Railroad Installment business. Mir. John B. Pirtle, his predecessor, who Is we'll known throughout the South, and who has held that position for upwards of twenty years, retires on account of ill., health.
 Mir J. c. Cockrell, who goes to Jack sonVile Fla, as District Agent in the Life Department, is also well and favor ably known throughout Alabama and is regarded as one of the best Insurance Agents on the road. For over five years he has been connected with the Penn Mu- tual, of which Capt. Walker Is the Gen eral Agent for Southern Alabama, and has been largely instrumental in building up a splendid business for this Agency. Messrs B. J. Well & Co. of this city, who are State Agents for Alabama and Florida, could not have made a better se- lection. The insurance fraternity of Ala bama will be loath to lose two such brill liant lights. but will be glad to learn that both have secused valuable plums. adv.

MARKET FOR FUTURES FEVERISH AND IRREGULAR
 FOLLOWING CALL.
Heavy, Port Receipts and Liverpool Selling Responsible for Early
 Selling Movement-Close
 5 to 2 Points Of.

New York, Oct. 19.-The cotton market opened easy with prices to points lower under active selling to liquidate for short account and to hedge against spot purchases in the South. Following the call the market was very feverish and irregular with the tendency downward in the absence of aggressive buying for new accounts. Heavy port receipts and weak Liverpool cables were responsible for the early selling movement. Other news averaged up bullishly; frost again ap- peared over the eastern belt and lower temperatures were shown on the chart for the middle west. The weekly crop weather review of The Chronicle again foreshadowed a short crop. Neverthe- les there were evidences that the mar ket was not broad enough to absorb the offerings made by spot cotton interests for hedging purposes. Wall Street and the west bought near months on the de- cline. Europe sold.
 The market closed steady. net to ' points lower.

Chicago Grain and Provisions.

Chicago, Oct. 29.-Uneasiness over the Argentine situation was bullish factor ir ar otherwise dull Saturday session or the Board of Trade today. December 1-4 to 3-S lower and December oats a shade depressed. Provisions closed l-2 to 10c lower.
 At the outset there was depressing tendency in the wheat pit due to sagglng cables. December started Is to l-4 to l-f to 3-S cents lower at 70 3-4 to Io 5-S ana with the usual prospect of closing deaIs for over Sunday. there was an lncnna tion to sell The doubt over the amount of damage done by the drought to the Argentine crop brought an uneasy feelng to the crowd, however. and pecemDes gained actively and sold at iu4 to oId olS; and the seaboard bought for export. Late in the session profit-taking eased the mar ket and December closed steady. un- changed at 70 7-S 10 Il. Local receipts were 1l6 cars, four of contract grade; Minneapolis and Duluth reported 6oz cars, making total of ITS cars for the three points, against S54 last week ana b9y "a year ago. Primary receipts were s5s,ooo bushels. against 1.059 600 bushels year ago, Seaboard clearances in wheat and flour equaled 4s2,00o bushels. The sea board reported F yoads taken for export
 Corn was very dull and easier. owing to lower cables, the bright. mild weather and poor shipping demand. It had spurts of comparative strength but at no time touched yesterdays closing ngures Wheat added some strength to what would otherwise have probably proved a very weak market. December huctuated between 56 Is to IA and 56 S-S and closed weak IA to 3-S lever at 56 1-4 Receipts were POS cars.
 Oats were quiet and kept within range of 1-S Shippers were fair buyers at the start and commission houses sold lightly The general undertone was firm but light business brought December to a steady close, a shade lower at 5 3-S to Tx Re- ceipts were 201 cars.
 Provisions ruled a trine easier, on de- cIining hog market. The trade was large ly local and moderate and almost fea- tureless. January pork closed 10 cents lower at 15 1-2c; January lard 1-2 down at 9.O2 l-2 and January ribs ' 1-2 to 10c down at 7.S2 1-2 to 7S5

H. 6 B. Beers Cotton Letter.
rsnecial to The Advertiser.l

New Orleans, La, Oct. 19.-(Special)- Our market responded to the unfavorable Liverpool advices by opening six lower, subsequently, improving 2 to on light frost in the Carolinas and fears of colder weather over Sunday. The heavy receipts and weakness of spots occasioned an cas- fer feeling near the close, making the net loss 4 to points on the day. The tenn perature has fallen over the Northwest and has risen over the Northeastern DOT tion of the country, while as a rule changes have been slight over other sec tions. Fair weather is generally predict ed over the belt tonight and Sunday. The absence of killing frost, the increasing movement, the weakness of spcts. the un- satisfactory European textile trade condl- tons and the restricted demand rom American spinners, have all combined to cause uneasiness and anxiety among holders. Barring frost scares, it looks as if values might seek a lower level unless active speculation soon enters the market assisted by a good spot demand from spinners.
