ALEXANDRIA, VA, Nov. IA rear
end collision between two west-bound
freight trains occurred this morning at .
O clock at, Wellington. on the Manassas
branch of the Southern Railroad, result
ing in the death Ct, Ernest II. Mcdonald,
of this city and Brakeman Driver. of
Lindv!lie, Va.
The collision occurred at the siding in
front OF Wellington. which is about six
miles from Manassas. Both trains were:
extras, and one Of them was stationary
at the time of the collision. The other
train, going at q high rate of speed,
crushed into the rear ufeSthe,-st3tionar
train and demolished the caboose and sew
eraI G1 the cars. The engine of the col
liding train was also badly damaged.
The engineer and fireman escaped without
serious injury. but the unfortunate con-
ductor and brakeman of the other train
were almost instantly killed. 1t is not
known what caused the wreck. but as
beth trains were specials it is supposed
that some misunderstanding occurred in
REGARD to the schedule or signals.
Soon after the accident a wrecking
train was sent out from this city and the
tracks were soon cleared.
Conductor Mcdonald lived. with his
wife and family. at No 1871 King Street,
in this city He was about twenty-seven
years OF age and had lately been pro-
noted as extra passenger man. His for
me-. home was at Rectortown, Va The
remains were Brought here this afternoon
for interment.
Brakeman Driver was about twenty
five years of age and unmarried. His
body was carried to his former home at

proved 3-64d. and closed 2ls over yester-
days prices. This market opened a shade
higher, but ruled active and firm during
the forenoon on liberal buying by Weld

and on upward turn local shorts were
prominent buyers, prices gradually ad-
vancing until an improvement about 20
points was recorded over last nights fig

than for some time past. The spot mar
ket also hardened in sympathy with the
advance in futures, although the sales
were very light. Estimated port receipts

Estimates put forth regarding the visi-
BILE supply OouisiaSa) March l, have ex-
cited widespread and an occasional in
vidious comment. Courteous criticism
commands quick ear; only the weak fear
challenge. Care is exercised and con-
servatism the rule in making up Stats
tical exhibits; in short 1t might be said
of reports issued, they are no cunning
ly devised fables;'' but simply mirror the
present, together with such looming
events las may cast shadow before"
In regard to the amount on hand, it
appears to be forgotten that last sea-
son the bubonic plague and lower prices
enabled large business to be done with
the Pacific coast; this year the movement
thither is insignificant. Then again, the
demand for export has been greatly cur
tailed, poverty among the Porto Ricans
constraining the many to turn to the
cheaper breadstuffs. Furthermore 1t may
be remarked, the home trade has not had
its incentive to push rice. In previous
years, during the winter months, rice was
perhaps the most profitable of grocery
commodities to handle, while this season
the margin is less than on other staples.
Progress made under established prices
is surprising

New York March 2S-Stocks opened ac-
tive and irregular. Confirmation of the
rumored absorption of B. G. by the N. p.
was still wanting and information bear
ing thereon to-day was as indefinite as
1t has been since the rumors first gained
currency. London furnished a much
higher range of prices for American
stocks this morning, and was a liberal
buyer here of internationally listed shares
at the opening. The anthracite coal
stocks were particularly features of this
mornings market, but they showed the
effect of quite heavy proht-taking sales
Particularly strong and active features
were Northern Pacific, st. Paul, Ohio
Western, the Atchisons and Missouri Pa
cific. Burlington and Quincy was COM
paratively dull, and was dealt in slightly
below yesterdays final figures. The To-
cal traction issues were strong and ac-
tive, notably for Manhattan The fea-
lures of this mornings dealings IN the in
dustrial quarter, were the United States
Steel Corporation shares, In which
trading was exceedingly heavy. and both

ly from highest. Among the specialties,
Amalgamated was the only stock in
which the dealings were at all active and

New Orleans, March 2S.-Notwithstand-
ing early Liverpool advices were not en-
couraging our market opened to points
higher, subsequently improved, 10 to IA
points additional on the later advance in
Liverpool, which caused heavy covering
by shorts, making the net gain on the
day 16 points. Cables from Liverpool
stated that there is a better feeling in
the market, and it is thought prices are
not far from the bottom. Don't think
there is much risk from the current level,
unless political disturbances arise. Bonn
bay receipts for the week were 81, 000
against 5000 last year aggregating !, 1885,

The shipments to Europe for the week
were $4,000, against 1000 last year. Euro
pean spiuners have taken considerably
more cotton from India this year at the
expense of American cotton, as it has
proven more advantage for them to so
do under present conditions The long
looked for reaction has materialized, and
from the immense amount of short cover
ing which has taken place in the last
three or four days, it would appear as
If the elimination of this interest places
the market in a weaker position. The
situation has not changed in so far, as
trade conditions throughout the world
continue to be very unsatisfactory, and
therefore, although values may enhance
some further, there is nothing for the
moment to warrant any decided advance.

The Morning News Office,
Thursday March 2S.
With the more assuring feeling that
pervaded the cotton trade to-day a ma
terial advance in prices was scored, with
every indication that the long looked for
reaction may be at hand. In response to
better Liverpool advices, that market re-
porting an advance of to 21a points, the
New York market was buoyant and ac-
tive for time, owing to aggressive buy
ing by shorts to cover. The closing was
steady at a rise of 10 to 20 points.
With the exception of a drop of &c on
water white there was no change in the
rosin market, which closed firm with
sales of 1890 barrels at the opening call
The demand was reported as satisfactory.
Spirits turpentine closed firm at 34Ac,
with fair business reported. The New

gains scored in many quarters, but with
the effects of profit taking apparent in
those stocks which have figured promi-
nently in the rise. The following resume
of the different markets will show the
tone and quotations at the closing to-

visible supply by the next statement will
show an excess of 100000 bales over the
supply of year ago. Advices from
Southern spot markets were generally
more reassuring, several points reporting
an advance of 1-16c, with the New York

New York. March 2S-To-day we are
having substantial reaction in the mar
bet, brought about by aggressive buying
by the bulls who sold so freely last
week. They apparently are acting on the
belief that the reaction would check the
pressure to sell in the South and attract
new cotton buying on the belief that the
decline had gone far enough. Naturally,
the local trade short interest ran to cover,
as they have done all the time this sea-
son on each reaction. Reactions are easy
to bring about, after such liquidation,
but whether it is the beginning of a new
speculative demand will depend upon the
spinners' attitude in view of the con-
stantly increasing visible supply. 1t is
now thought the insight movement will
be about $4,000 bales, against 100000 bales
last season, and that the excess in the
visible supply will increase this week to
above 1000 bales, as compared with last
year.
