COTTON FUTURES.
The Market Finally Closes steady Z

me Market Finally Closes Steady Z
as Points Lower.
. New York, Oct. 22.-The market for
cotton futures opened firm, with prices
to points higher, and for a time
displayed disposition to do still better
on covering, foreign buying and some
demand for Wall street commission
houses. The better feeling was due to
firmer English cables than expected,
Liverpool having advanced ~ to 8
points. But the tremendous port and
interior receipts and fine weather con-
dltlons all over the belt soon caused
the bear faction to assume aggressive
tactics. General selling slowly but
surely forced prices downward, Janu-
airy reaching 7.S1, around which shorts
turned for profits. Towards midday
there Were evidences that the trade
had sold out and was considerably
short. At this time bull news began to
sift in, and buying orders from the
South and the West were received. The
weekly government report stated that
while the weather had been perfect
for picking, the late crop had been
damaged to some extent by frost the
yield was showing up light and there
was little prospect OF top crop in any
section. Close upon this news came
smaller estimates than expected for
to-morrow's New Orleans and Hous-
ton receipts. Reports received from
Fall River and the dry goods district
were favorable. Prices were very sem
sitive during the early afternoon, and
on active general buying January
reached 7.91. Later there was a reac-
ton under bear selling, and a lull in
outside support, but towards the close
the market again exhibited a surpris-
ingly steady tone and finished steady
at a net advance of 7 to 10 points. On
the up turn the Southern and Euro
pean shorts We're nervous buyers in
our market and export houses, which
had put out large lines of hedges last
week, sought to cover them.

COTTON.

The cotton market closed easy and
unchanged. A fair demand was re-
ported, but on the whole the inclination
10 either buy or sell was lacking, and
the day closed featureless. Receipts
were 1851, against 7,64S last year, and
5O35 the year before the last. For
cotton for through shipment, the de-
mand was about the same as vester-
day. with a disposition on the part of
the country to remain out of the mar
ket except when buyers met them half
way. Fully good middling was re-
ported as around SC to Lice, and
basis good middling, 7Bc to 15-16c.
Cotton futures at New York closed
steady at an advance of to 10 points.
The following were the official spot
quotations at the close of the market
at the Cotton Exchange to-day:

HUGHES FINDS BAD BRICK,
Discovers Soft One in a Pile to Be
Used For Paving.

Mayor Hughes issued orders this
morning to discard a number of the
brick which has been delivered for the
new pavement on Jefferson street be-
tween Fourth and Fifth This is the
duty usually performed by the engineer
Mayor Hughes had hardly entered the
office at the city hall this morning when
the telephone rang. An indignant citi-
Zen was at the other end of the line and
he asked that the mayor pay a visit to
the place where the work was being
carried on and that he come at once
The mayor dropped everything and
forthwith repaired to Jefferson street.
Just as he reached the block where the
paving force was at work a wagon
loaded with the last of the rejected
cast iron curbing was being driven
away.
Mayor Hughes asked several ques-
tons regarding the new curbing and
finally left after issuing orders to make
every piece nut in come up to the re-
qurements III regard to weight.
While he was on the ground he looked
over the brick which was piled up in
the parks for use in the pavement Of
the block. The lower layer was soft
building brick
Don't use any of that brick said
Mr.. Hughes. Throw it all out and keep
an account of the amount discarded
Il have had bad brick thrown out in
other places he continued, land the
same brick has been loaded up and de-
hyered the second time"

HE MAKES TROUBLE.
Herd of Texas Fever Cattle Passed by
inspector Are Stopped

The live stock sanitary board has
caught up with one of it's bitterest ira
ducers through the holding up of a car
load of fever cattle that had passed the
federal inspector. Dan McCunningklaTn
is the federal inspector at Big Springs,
Texas He gave clean bill of health
to nine carloads of cattle loaded in
Mitchell county, Texas. but at Fort
Worth State Inspector J. H johnson,
who is from Holton, discovered fever
ticks on cattle in two or three of the
cars. Accordingly Johnson switched
them off into the Usage Nation into
quarantine. There were 258 cattle in
the herd.
Members of the live stock board say
that McCunningham has given them
more trouble in the past two years than
any one else, trying to give out the i'm
preston to the cattlemen that the Kan
sas law was unconstitutional and in
spection on the part of this state was
both unconstitutional and unnecessary.
McCunningham has been located at
CoffeyVille until recently.

been without an organization. Other
organizations of this class are at Fort

the association is in the vicinity of 49,
