O1ers - I1sonte TroasurA
According to the president Of the Pa
eihc Exploration Company, which has
an expedition searching for the lost
treasures OF Cocos Island, the company
has received from Admiral Pailiser OF
the British navy proposition to reveal
the hiding place of the treasure In con-
sideration Of Is per cent OF whatever II
found. tlf
Admiral Palliser, who was formerly
In command Of the British Pacific
squadron, once took his nagship to the
island and set his marines to digging
for the 100000 600 Of pirate gold and
stolen Peruvian treasure supposed to
be hidden there.
The admiral came In for criticism
from home for having employed his
ship for personal purpose. and the
marines brought back nothing. but 1t
was said they uncovered the slate top
of the treasure cache and that the ad-
miral stopped work then. intending to
come back for the fortune after he had
retired from the navy.
Cocos Island Is about 500 miles on
shore from Costa Rica. to which 1t be-
longs, and. according to many yarns.
It has been used as repository OF
treasure by every pirate and adventurer

was disappointing, consequently our mar
ket opened points lower, declined {
points additional on the heavy port and
interior receipts and the large estimates
for both New Orleans and Houston to-
morrow, being accelerated by the weak
ness of spots. closing at a net loss of
to 10 points on the day. Port receipts
for the four days are $4,000 in excess of
last year and $4,000 overyyear before last.
The semi-weekly interior receipts point
to $4,000 against $4,000 last year and
40, 900 year before last, or a gain of 81
per cent over last year and 70 per cent
over year before last. The continuance
of these immense receipts as we'll as Mr..
Hesters analysis have been instrumental
in shaking the confidence Of many who
had small crop views and the probability
is that these who bought freely in the
bureau under the impression that their
estimate would be approximately correct
will abandon such ideas, especially as the
movement is running on a basis of 10, 600,
coo crop 1t must be remembered also
that if the amount brought into sight only
equals last year from now out it will
point to the above figures Ii was APP

mates will soon become current and as

New York, Jan. 7.-There has been fair
bidding by exporters for heavy brown
cottons today, but sellers have turned
most bids down. Home trade continues
Gull. Prices of brown bleached and coarse
cclored cottons maintained, the decline
in cotton apparently being disregarded
by sellers of cottons goods Print cloths
are dull but firm. Prints in somewhat
better demand and firm. Ginghams very
firm. Good demand for silks and tone

COTTON.
New York. Jan THE cotton market
opened steady with prices to points
lower and for time resisted all efforts
90 break May through the &c level. OPP
vl'onents of the market attacked the late
months on the idea that the port move
ment which was rearly 100 per cent lar
ser than the same day last year and the
weak cables from Liverpool warranted a
decided decline. English selling orders
and some pressure from the South added
to the confidence Of shorts. Wall Street
refused to believe in lower market and
increased its line OF long cotton, mostly
May options. But as the morning wore
along commission houses became large
sellers and the English market sold low
er. Before midday longs sold eXcitedly
and commission houses sold on stop or
ders. From SC May broke to 1872 after
which the market was a trifie steadier
on profit taking by room shorts and light
scalpers demand for a reaction. Never
theless the undertone of the market re-
n,aned weak and on every bulge more
long cotton came out. Estimates for a
big movement tomorrow at New Orleans
and Houston and bearish semi-weekly
interior town statement proved potent
influences on the late break. The close
was barely steady with prices net to IA
