cothran 6 Co.'s Market Letter.

Birm1nghdff Ala, December 6.
 Liverpool closed points down on spots and 3 down on contracts. We opened 4 points down and the close in New York shows decline of points for the day.
 Receipts ran a little ahead of last year, though estimates are again moderate. With clearing weather receipts may in- crease and prices show some further de- cline. We believe that present large crop ideas will be moderated and that cotton bought around present prices will show good profit, and that even should we see further decline. 1t will be only tenn porary and not severe at that
 Estimates for Monday at New Orleans are 1000 bales, against 10957 last year; Houston 65o0, against Il, 33S last year, and Galveston 5000, against 155S4 last year.

New Orleans Cotton Marked.

New Orleans, December 6.-There was only moderate amount of trading in the spot cotton market today. The of- ferings were fairly large and there was comparatively good assortment on the tables. But the demand was light and buyers were by no means willing to pay board figures for average lists. Sales. 176O bales, including 75O to arrive. Quota tions 1-16c lower. Futures opened to 4 points down, but after the opening be- yond definite leaning toward a slightly lower level the local market displayed no interesting characteristics. Prices backed and filled slowly over a range of a point or two either way, but always with downward pressure, and when the gong sounded the noon closing the record showed net losses for the day of to points on the several months.

 Based of a Trlhe.
PROFIT TAKING AT CLOSE

New York, December 6. = The cotton points lower in sympathy with weakness in the Liverpool market. The room trade also was influenced by better weather in the south and predictions for increasing receipts next week. There were very few public olders in evidence and the room bulls. were in no mood to buy cotton so long as the public maintained it's present indifferent attitude. The private cables declared the silver situation was assum- ing such a serious aspect that investors were withdrawing from the market while professional bear sentiment was steadily growing The advices from dry goods and cotton goods ceBters were not par ticularly gratifying. though prices lacked important changes. The Liverpool market was due to come about point lower, but at the close was net 2 to 8 points lower. The room took profits towards the close of the first hour, but as this demand was not urgent prices barely rallied 3 points. Port receipts were heavy considering the recent bad weather in the south, and pri- vate telegrams asserted that the southern spot markets were easing trifie. The early wave of selling carried March down to SIP, May to S.14 and August to 7.9s.

STEAM SHOVEL AT IT.
Big Force of Men Pushing low
Central Work.

The summers work upon improv-
ing the Iowa Central north of the city
has started with determination that
means accomplishment. The work
nearest the city has been inaugurated
al the top of the hill known as scar
bon Junction. The shovel started in
at the north side OF this hill and will
dig it's way out on the south end of
the grade. The track layers and the
men at this point are being managed
by Messrs Mike Cruden and James
O'Hearn. The tracks for the passage
of trains to the east of the work have
been laid several days and the shovel
has made considerable progress up
on it's journey through the hill. The
dirt is being dumped at point near
the river. The dirt for the filling of
the Quaker sag will come from the
next cut north. 1t will require three
months of uninterrupted labor to ac-
complish this part of the work.
The gang of bridge and culvert men
under the direction of Will Woodruff
are busy at the culvert that underlies
the fill at the Quaker sag extending
it to accommodate the widening the
base of the grade. This will be sew
eral weeks in completion and the
work of filing will not be commenced
here until all of the concrete work
has been completed. The fill here
will amount to about twenty feet and
the seven feet that comes from the
top of the Carbon Junction hill makes
a difference of twenty seven feet in
this part of the grade.
There will be about three thousand
feet of the grade starting at point
near the crossing of theIhighway near
the Quaker meeting church and rum
ming through the old Carbonate yards
and from thence the grade will be
gradual down to the river bridge,
there miles north An immense
amount of labor is being accomplished
daily and no idea of the immensely
of the work that has been laid out
can be gained by other than a per-
sonal visit to the scenes of the opera
tions.
The steam shovel that is working
north of the city is the one that has
been working in the gravel pit at
Belmond. 1t made 80 good record
in the pit last season that the man
agement decided to put the shovel
into the service where the heaviest
work was required.
Anyone visiting the scene of the
operations of the shovel will be well
repaid for the walk or the ride as the
case may be.

There is more catarrh in this section

with local treatment pronounced it in

Unexpected Results

Wilbur Spencer and E. L. Shaw
were mixed up in driving accident
Sunday afternoon. Mr.. Spencer was

shafts of the vehicle were broken,

To RESTORE STALLS.
Fair Ground Buildings Destroyed Fire
TO be Rebuilt

Arrangements have been made for
the rebuilding and the replacing of
the stalls on the west side of the
fair grounds that were destroyed
by fire recently. Fifty, or thereabout,
of the stalls were burned and they
will be replaced by better class of
accommodations though less in num-
Der perhaps. The cost OF the replac-
ing will be considerable but the ex-
penditure is warranted by the ends
that will be attained.
Grading for the new stalls has been
commenced and the work upon the
frame building that will accommodate
the stalls will be commenced some
time duriugIthe coming week.

Total

Several of the cases on the criminal
docket have even now been disposed
of and unless the grand jury finds a
number of bills but little will be cared
for upon this calander. The famous
"fast driving" case in which the
mayor of Oskaloosa, VIM. Wray, in
advertautly took spin down the
streets and avenues of the city beside
an alderman of the city council!
chased by the fancy steppers OF tbs
city, will come up for hearing and
considerable interest attaches there
as the validity of one the city or
dinances is at stake.
Among the other cases of general
interest on this calander are the
Evans riot cases in which Constable
John Ruggenberg was shot and came
near losing his life; the case against
Joe Haughey for the forfeiture of
bond before the court on a criminal
charge and the balance of the cal
ander as it now stands is devoted to
indictments and contempt procedure.
The probate calander has to deal
with the usual number of estate re.
ports, probating of wills and the like
On the law and equity calander is
small picking for attorneys for the
term and it might be said that moth
ing of more than ordinary interest
exists. Even the divorce business
has been below the average and less
cases have been filed than for
many terms. A total of thirty one
cases are listed on this docket. OF
the cases of recent filing in the di-
vorce proceedings are the following:
Cora j. vs. s III. Simms, F. d. Reid,
attorney for plaintiff; Gretta NJ. Foote
va. Chas. e. Foote, Sewers and
Malcolm, attorneys.
Catherine o'Brien, administrator
of the estate of William O'Brien, has
brought suit against the Iowa Central
for the death of her husband who
was killed at Excelsior yards.
These and minor cases will make
up the bulk of the business of the
term.
