Adam Hoyle Dabbs.

DIR. A. II. Dabbs died at the
home OF his son, Lewis Dabbs, at
Guntown, on Sunday, the 18th,
inst, from complication of dis
eases from which he had suffered
for several years.
DIR. Dabbs was born in Georgia
in 1882, where he resided until
1856, when he removed to Gun
town where he lived until his
death. He was a physician of note
and was engaged in the practice of
his profession for many years. He
had, during that long period, min
istered to the suffering members Of
almost every family in that vicin-
ity aud had become endeared to the
entire community through his eff
cient aid and benign influence as
family physician. He. was a man
OF gentle nature and held a high
place in the confidence and esteem
of all who had the fortune to know
him. He was an influential and
prominent member of the Chris
tian church and lent to it the full
weight of his exemplary example
and leadership. He was a man of
extreme modesty, was kind and
affable of manner, genial and bland
in his intercourse with his fellow
man and was deep and sincere t.
his friendships In his death tn
community in which he dwelt has
lost one of its strongest factors in
its social and religious life. The
imprint OF his character was felt
throughout Lee county, to which
he gave two sons, John r. DabbS,
secretary and treasurer of Tupelo
Cotton Mills, and Lewis DabbS, a
prominent merchant of Guntown,
who are left to mourn his loss.
HIS wife, the mother of these gen.
llemen, died a year ago, sad t,.
reavement which weighed heavily
upon his aged heart.
The funeral exercises were con-
Quoted on Monday last from the
Christian church of this city and
were impressively led by Rev. G.
K. Marshall, its eloquent pastor.
The services were attended by a
large number of sorrowing friends,
who sadly followed the remains to
the cemetery where they were in
TERED.

By Gilbert and Clay.
 New Orleans, July A.-The net decline in the English market today on deliveries at the closing amounted to to 10 points on the near months, and the same on dis tant The course of the foreign market was in conformity with the easier ten- dency on this side yesterday, and in con sequence offered no surprise Spots abroad were lower in sympathy with the easier position of the speculative mar ket It was also learned that Liverpool had been cabled from this side, and im- pressed with the idea of improved crop conditions. Visible supply variations are expected to be less bearish than at first anticipated.
 Minus correction at Barcelona, 4000 bales were not taken into consideration. Corrected figures are those sent out this morning. It was learned today that Daniel Sully was again active in the Liverpool market, being large buyer for his own account and independent of the New Orleans clique. Small receipts both at the ports and estimated for tomorrow were In order today. The disturbance on Wall street was more than sufficient to offset the bullish statistical position, and again put the bear element in con- trol.
 Advices from the south show but skeleton stocks and prices held at top figures.
 The rally in prices during the early af- ternoon session was in sympathy with the upward movement In New York. Prominent New York brokers are report ed to be large buyers of September.
 The course of the local market today was on easier lines on the near months, while late delivery remained compara- lively steady.

LOCAL MARKETS.

Yesterday was quiet one in the local stocks and bonds market although there was some excitement in Tennessee Coal and Iron shares on Wall street. The de- cline was reflected in Birmingham, the company's stock being now quoted at 36-40- In addition Republic Steel, com mon, is 10-12 Republic Steel, preferred 60-66; Sloss-Shefleld common, 20-27: Sloss-Sheffeld, preferred, 74-SO.
 The only change in bond quotations Is that of Tennessee Coal and Iron gen. eral mortgage, which is quoted at S5--91.
 Morris avenue continues quiet and without feature Business is not lively and there is little stuff coming in from other states. Georgia peaches are sell ing for S1 to $2 per crate. There are few apples and few bananas to be found Watermelons continue to sell fairly well but nearly all fruits are about on a standstil Cantaloupes are abundant however, and are finding ready sales at $1 to g per crate.
 Poultry is fairly steady. The only variation in quotations that has been noted for some time is for hens. These are now selling for 20c to BOG. Eggs are steady at 121kc.
 Staple groceries are firm. No changes are reported for yesterday. Meats ard lard are the only live propositions just now.

Baxter 6. Co.,. cotton s4t.r.

New York. July 24-Cotton opened 3 to points higher on small transactions Cables were fair and weather conditions good, but on the whole the situation was such that the inclination to support the market was as strong as ever, although the unsettled condition of the stock mar ket seems to scare some people Ar kansas reports came in today denoting unsatisfactory prospects and similar re- ports were at hand from Texas, North Louisiana and Mississippi.
 The Journal of Commerce published fair reports from the carolinas Some bears did not like the way good crop reports were coming in because they were so few in numbers and did not claim anything like the magnificent sit uation expected near the close of July. Furthermore the high temperatures of late are against the crop. Prices eased off during the morning and the market was quite dull most of the early session The weakness in Wall street was against cotton at the moment. Liverpool closed to 10 points lower. The winter months were considered purchase on all breaks. and as there was large short interest in them 1t Is generally believed that the upward movement must soon be re- sumed.

New York. July 24.-1n dry goods the market conditions show practically no change with buyers determined to oper- ate with the utmost conservatism. Where purchases are made they are for imme- diate delivery and urgent request Is made for prompt shipments.
 Stocks in good many departments are evidently very much depleted and the chances are that they will become more so before replenishment owing to the cur tailment of production at the mills.
