New York, Nov. 14.-In the Liverpool
market to-day prices advanced but a
point. This was good enough when
we remember that yesterdays rise
was a remarkable one. Nevertheless,
bears tried to make capital of the slight
rise. Bullish sentiment is still general.

STOCKS AND BONDS.

New York, Nov. 14.-Trading in to-
days stock market was listless and
narrow. Operations were on too small
a scale to offer anything of a rep
resentative character. There were a
few points of strength, including Chi
cago and Alton on a revival of rum
ors of it's responsible absorption as a
connecting link in larger system.
Southern Railway advanced in re-
Spouse to, rather vague assertions
that the Seaboard Air Line was in a
way to be brought into the Southern
Railway community of interest. The
upward movement in Manhattan con-
tinued on the score of the increase of
earning power through electric opera
ton as shown by the last statement.
One or two minor stocks rose with
out explanation. The market as a
whole failed to show a continuation OF
yesterdays movement to cover shorts
and prices drifted rather aimlessly.
The bank statement proved decided
ly more favorable than the forecast
had indicated, but nevertheless it's pub
LEGATION was followed by a brisk SELL
ing movement, which centered upon
Pennsylvania, costing that stock the
greater part of yesterdays gain. Anal
gamated Copper and Reading also lost
more than a point. and the whole list
receded to below last night. The de-
cline in the cash reserves of the banks
proved to be only $2,s13,20O Yester-
days estimates indicated an outgo for
the week of $4,000 900, without allow
ance for yesterdays arrival of foreign
gold to the amount of nearly 81, 900, O00
The market closed dull and steady.
Total sales 235,300 shares including

Ware & LeIara,s Cottop Letter.

New York, Nov. 14.-It is high time
for sane view of the cotton situation.
This is rather impossible in a market
where speculation of the long side
amounts to a craze and disease. But
to those who are willing to look the
ground over and bide their time, there
is some basis for a conservative view.
Not until the market crossed IL cents
were there evidences of such selling
as generally means a halt. The buy
ing has proved too much for the mar
ket, however, and another 81 a bale
other week the cotton movement in
Texas will compare with small receipts
last year. The movement next week
will exceed last year by $4,000. This
will bring the deficiency down con-
siderably and cause some halt in the
buying by spinners. While the mar
ket is wild and the craze is one, its
time to take profits on cotton. We
are not believers IN the short side.
Far from it. The short crop theory is
likely to turn out correct and after
Jan. 1, we will have pandemonium.
But prices cannot continue the upward
move with such violence as of late.
Some day, 1t may not be this coming
week, there will be violent reversion of
feeling and every one will try to sell
at once. We do not want you to be
long on such a market. We would
rather miss profits on the intervening
advance than to try to get out at the
top. We strongly advise profit-taking
and can not see our way clear to buy
ing cotton at the moment.

How to Air Beds,

The directions for airing beds given in a domeSsic training school are worth noting. Place two chairs with seats to- gether near an open window. Fold the counterpane neatly the long way and lay over the tops of the chairs, allowing the middle to sag down to the seats. Fold the blankets next and place over the counterpane, allowing space be- tween each for the circulation of air. Proceed in the same way with the rest of the bedclothing. Beat up the pill lows and place them where they will get the air.

LOOKING OVER THE GROUND
President Hall and Party Here To-day
 in Special Gar.

President John M Hall, of tue N. r., N. H. & H. R. R. company, Director Charles K. Brooker of Ansonia, who IS also president of the American Brass Go, which controls the Benedict &s Burnham, Holmes, Booth & Hay- dens and the West Brass mill concerns m this city besides others throughout tne Naugatuck valley and Chief En- Eineer Ingersol were in this city this morning for the purpose of looking over plans and specifications for dou- Dle tracking the Naugatuck division and looking over the ground for q suit able site for the new union station. President Hall and party left New Ha ven in a special car about $40 and ar- eived In this city about 1O:55.
 A Democrat reporter was to-day granted few minutes interview with President Hall during his short stay here, though he was very busy. In reply to questions he said that it was Impossible to tell where the site of the new union station would be. Every thing was problematical. They were looking over experimental plans and specifications and nothing definite had as yet been decided upon. Tn fact it would be unwise if they did have a particular place in view to give it out as the price of the land would take a big advance rather suddenly He would say, though, that the station would be located on ground in close proximity to both lines in answer to a question whether 1t would be located on land between the present stations of the Naugatuck and Highland divisions.
 There has been some talk to the ef- feet that the union depot would be lo- cated further down the line than the Naugatuck depot. Is there anything to itY' one of the scribes inquired.
 "I don't know" was the reply.
 President Hall said that it would take considerable time to arrange the plans and specifications, to select the site and make the necessary improve ments.
 Tn regard to double tracking he said that the work would be commenced at the Waterbury end of the line as soon as possible-that Is as soon as the work of double tracking at the Derby end was completed. The work will be discontinued at Derby and com menced at Waterbury, thus leaving gap in the middle. This would be done in order to give Waterbury the benefit of the double tracks as soon as possible. He could not state when the work in Waterbury would be com menced. Much trne must necessarily be spent in purchasing the land and in making other arrangements. While here President Hall and party spent much of the time in looking over plans and specifications.

CHEssoN IN THE CHAIR
Alderman of the Third Presided at Last Nights Session,

Last Nights Session. The aldermen met last night, vice. president F. W. Chesson all the way from Germany, presiding. Other mem bers present were Messrs Murray, Brophy, Foley, Blakeslee, Filling, | Beach, Gates, Walker and Stanley. There were two sessions one special and the other an adjourned meeting. The special came first and was of short duration. All there was to be done was to take action on the recommends ton of the board of finance that $2,OO0 be appropriated for police protection in the outside district. The recommen- dation failed of passage, the three dem- ocratic members voting against 1t on the ground that the outside, district should pay for its own police protec- ton. This was clearly the intention of the board of finance, but perhaps the plan was not explained to the minority and thinking as they had reason to with the information at their com- mand, that the whole burden was to be saddled onto the second district, they kicked. The intention was to even things up in the fall, but how many members of the board knew that? Ii the minority had been made aware of the intention of the board of finance there is no doubt but that they, would have favored the recommendation.
 The special meeting closed and the adjourned session was called without mach delay. The several recommen- dations of the board of public works printed herein before were read and adopted.
 A communication was received from James Lord stating that he will claim damage for injuries to his horse and wagon by reason of defective high way. Was referred to the committee on law.
 Judge Cowell and Peter Bauby were accepted as bondsmen in the sum of $1,0O0 for Constable William J. Rig ney. Petitions were received for sewer in South Leonard street and the extension of water mains in North Main street and Bunker Hill avenue. They were referred to the board of public works.
 Alderman Murray called attention to the Vine street matter and wanted to know when the board of public works intended to take action in the prem ises. He was informed that the mat ter is in the hands of committee.
 Alderman Walker took the board of public works to task about the high pressure system. He moved that the for the installation of 9 high water service. It was carried.
 The board then adjourned.

CITIZEN TRAIN FRAcT1oUs.
Doesn't Like Fumigation and Will Not
 Eat or Speak.


 Stamford, June 16.-George Francis Train, who has been isolated at the city pesthouse, suffering from an at tack of smallpox has again become a source of worry to the physicians. He positively refuses to eat or drink any thing and has not spoken a word since noon yesterday and cannot be induced to do so.
 The trouble was caused by the ef- forts of the health authorities to disin- feet the pesthouse preparatory to MT Trains removal. All the clothing of the patient was burned as were also sever- al letters and some manuscript which had been written by MT Train during his illness. During these proceedings Mir Train became furious. The phy- sicians in charge say that MT Train will be removed to the home of his daughter to-day. MT Train, angry be- cause of yesterdays proceedings, in- s1sts that he shall not make the trip voluntarily. The physicians have met this stand by announcing that the pa- tient will be removed even if it is ne cessary to use force to carry out their plans. Meanwhile Mir Trains condi- ton is not being improved by his re- fusal to take nourishment.

This process is advocated by an ex- perienced person: Take quarter of a pound of nitric acid and half an ounce of muriatic acid. Mix, shake well to- gether, and 1t is ready for use. Cover the place you wish to mark with melted beeswax. When cold write your in- scription plainly on the wax with a sharp instrument to clear the metal. Then apply the mixed acids with a feather, carefully filling each letter. Let 1t remain from one to ten minutes. according to appearance desired, then throw h water, which stops the proc sss, and remove the wax.

President Mitchell s unanimously chosen president,
 Mir. Mitchell in his address said:
 'It is needless to say that the refusal of the mine owners to live up to the award of the strike commission is a decided disappointment to me. was hopeful after our long strike and after the commission had made it's award that each side would accept 1t.
 ''I desire to say that if the United Mine Workers should refuse to comply with every letter. of the award I would be the first to condemn them. We in- tend to live up to the very letter of the award, and therefore 1t is not unrea- sonable for us to expect the other side 1t live up to it.
 ''It is grave question which con fronts you. The time is here when we must again decide upon specific pol icy toward our employers. We must approach this question with great care. We must do nothing we cannot defend. might say for myself that am hope Eul we may find an honorable way out of the calamity.
