LOCAL AND GENERAL MARKET REPORTS
NEW YORK COTTON MARKET.
Signal Service Predicts Warm Weather
for Texas Belt.

NEW YORK, Oct. 15.-Cotton made
only feeble response to the frost news
today and a little covering early in the
day, and then declined owing to favor
able weather. heavy receipts, disap-
pointing Liverpool adyices, and drib-
bling out of long cotton from Southern
and other holders.
At one time there was a rally on sup
port from Theodore H. Price brokers,
who took considerable January and
March. but it was only temporary. and
the closing prices were the lowest of the
day. Frost occurred in parts of Missis-
sippi, Georgia, and Alabama. but were
not regarded as serious. Practically no
attention was paid to predictions of
frost tonight In South Carolina, North
Carolina, Georgia, and Tennessee.
The signal service predicted warmer
weather for Texas and the Southwest to-
night, and warmer over the whole belt
on Thursday. Liverpool and spot houses
were selling. and quotations across the
water were to 10 American points low
er, closing easy.
The weather is the dominant factor,
and in the main it is so favorable that
the outside public are not buying at the
moment
The market closed easy with quota
tions to 10 lower, as compared with
yesterdays closing prices.

NEW YORK, Oct 15.-Money on call
at the stock exchange today opened at
9 per cent, highest 8, lowest 6. closing, Z.
Most of the days loans were at s per
cent.
Time money continued in demand for
short dates at the same high rates that
have prevailed for some time, notwith
standing the opinion among many that
the severe stringency has passed. An
ticipating a renewal of business. COM
mission houses prefer to be prepared,
even at high rates. rather than be
placed in a position on account of
high call rates, where business would
have to be restricted. Supply came to-
day almost entirely from foreign houses.
Rates 9 per cent for so days; per cent
for 80 days: per cent for four months;
612 per cent for six months.
Mercantile paper was unchanged. Sup
ply in hand Is not large. but that in
sight more than could be absorbed for
some time. Quoted rates, 61a9 per
cent.
Boston clearing house loans between
banks are still at per cent. Quota

CHICAGO GRAIN MARKET.
Values Respond to Widening in Spec
ulative Wheat.

CHICAGO, Oct. 15.-Values again re-
sponded TO the important widening of
the speculative wheat market today.
and in doing so utterly ignored a great
deal of bearish news.
The Snow estimate of T60 000, 900
bushels wheat crop and the increase of
l, 400,0 006 acres in the Argentine wheat
area came along to supplement the or
dinary daily bearish news. The latter
consisted of increased primary market
arrivals. particularly in the Northwest.
The Minneapolis and Duluth cars to-
day were 656. Exports were liberal at
6SS.000 bushels, and Duluth reported
cash sales Of 250. 600 bushels. The
strength of the milling situation in the
Northwest, the substantial advance in
corn and important buying from New
York served to stampede a number of
local shorts
Among these was quite a number of
professionals Of the heavier sort.
An enormous business was done in
corn, and important shorts were COW
ering freely both in December and May.
The former future, however, was the
strongest and most active. There was
an advance of / cent per bcshel in
corn. with Armour buying all of the
offerings. The weather was all that
could be desired and the prospects are
for continuance of the same tomor,
row.
The oats market was completely over
shadowed by corn, and was only a faint
echo of that market. 1t started weak,
but was helped some by the corn
strength.
In provisions lard was again the
prominent feature, and its strong iegiti-
mate position appeared to he the con-
trolling influence in the situation The
strength of corn was also help to the
general market. The recent buying of
product had been mainly by packers.
who are now the principal holders of
both cash and future deliveries.

Absorption of Money.

A curious popular misaprehension
continues concerning the absorption OF
money into the Treasury. 1t was point
ed out at the end of last month that the
net balance held in the Treasury vault
available for circulation was only s75,-
51,514.79.
Analysis of the statement Of cash in
the Treasury at the close of business
yesterday shows that this balance has
fallen to less than $4,000. 600, while the
amount OF Government money deposited
In the banks during the period has in
creased from $l32 2.74o,99s.9o to s141, $780,

Gov. Bliss prompt appointment of
Gen. Alger to the senatorial vacancy as
soon as the senatorial question ceased to
be matter of controversy, will be
approved by public sentiment. He
could not have made an appointment
Immediately following the death of
Senator Mcmillan, for with rival can
didates in the field, this would have laid
him open to the charge of attempting
10 exercise an undue influence in the
selection to be made by the egislature.
Gov. Bliss has carried himself with ex-
cellent discretion through an ordeal in
which it would have been easy to make
mistakes, and the people of the state
will commend him as much for what he
did not do as for what he did when the
proper time came for action-Grand

Willard Stearns, editor of the Adrian
Press, the democratic organ of Lenawee
county. says: II cannot consistently
support Durand or any gold democrat.
A vote for Durand means vote for
Grover Cleveland or Dave Hill. 1 be.
long to class of democrats who believe
in the homely phrase, The tail should
not wag the dog Democrats should
not spend their money or time trying
to elect this ticket. 1t can't be done.
The nomination of Durand was dictated
by corporate influences, and it is time
for the democracy to reject this evil
from its high councils! Personally |
do not approve the nomination. Du-
rand is dead weight on the ticket
Every self-respecting silver democrat
and silver republican will refuse to vote
for Durand and for every gold advocate
on the ticket. Durand stands for
corporations. His nomination will tend
to draw out big democratic vote to
rebuke this insult. The state committee
should have polled the delegates of the
last convention, secured an expression
of their choice for governor and acted
on the advice of majority of those
delegates"

The EIGHTH DISTRICT cor,n.;on y, ;.

The Eighth district campaign will lie
short and probably barren of much ex-
element. The election of Hon. Joseph
w. Fordney, by an overwhelming
majority is conceded by republicans and
democrats alike through the district.
Mr.. Fordney has not yet begun vigorous
work, and it is not expected that much
work will be necessary. Farmer You
mans is spending what time he can
spend from his crops shaking hands with
the voters. He naturally desires to
make as good showing as possible, but
will be forced to make the campaign
largely single handed, as the COM
mittees, it is said, are not putting out
much money. Saginaw Courier Herald.

Bert Cook For Senator

Ii there is any person who thinks that
the republicans have not made good
nomination for state senator he has not
been heard from yet. At the senatorial
convention for Ingham and Shiawassee
counties held in the armory in this city
yesterday Mr.. A. B. Cook was nominal
ed by reclamation. The honor was one
which came to him quite unsought and
was surprise to the great majority of
his friends who had no intimation
whatever that he was candidate. He
is, however, one of the best informed
republicans in the county and should
poll the heaviest kind of vote not
only in this county but in Ingham
county as well where he is almost
equally well known from his residence
at the agricultural college and his con-
nection with the farmers clubs move
ment which has largely centered'at the
same place. He is at present at the
mead of the state organization of farm
ers' clubs. Mr. Cook will make one of
the strongest members of the coming
state senate if elected, as he will be if
the republicans and especially the farm
ersof the two counties do their duty
He is not the kind of man to be
bought or controlled by any man or set
of men, and when vote is cast for A.
b. Cook for state senator the voter may
be assured that it is being cast for A.
b. Cook and what A. B. Cook will
think is his duty every time. The
party is certainly to be congratulated
on the nomination made Yesterday.

The department of agriculture has
decided that it wants about five mil
lions of dollars for its expenses for the
next fiscal year. This is about hall
million more than the expenses for the
present year, but after all, the depart
ment is a paying one and the expenses
must necessarily be heavier than ever
as the importance of agriculture is
bound to increase. Any money spent tc
help the farmers of the country i'm
prove their condition is money well
spent.

Rochester, NY, residents are already
tearing up plank side walks for fuel.
Perhaps that viii prove to be good
way for Owosso to get rid of some of the
dangerous plank walks which still re-
main about this city. 1t also shows
that we cannot be far behind eastern
cities so far as good walks are concerned
and few more years will place our city
in position where there will be nc
plank walks at all within the city limits.
