The Coffee Market.

New York November 25.-Coffee futures opened steady in tone with prices 15 to 20 points lower under general liquidation of long account, prompted break of 1@ 1A franc in Havre and 1 pig. in the Ger man market. Other market and statis- tical advices were bullish but not of sufficient importance to offset European weakness. Havre later declined a. further % franc, which, however, the local mar ket failed to respond to, ruling steady after the call on room support and some Wall street buying. The session con- tained little of a speculative feature and fluctuations kept within a narrow range final figures being 15 to 20 points net lower and the tone steady Total sales were 31,750 bags, including December at $6.40Q$6.50; March, s6.75Qs6.SO; April, $69O May, s6.9O@$6.s5; June sz05; July. $705@ $710; September. s725q$ISO

that n gang used to go out and watch
Clnch every afternoon. They would
hide I'm the grass and almost burst
with laughter at the seriousness with
which the poor fellow would cast his

formance. He went bnck and reported
To the colonel that unless Cinch was

lCssly insane. The result was that his

handed Clnch the papers.

grabbed the papers. He gave one look
at them. and when he saw that they
were all right waved them triumphant
