Buried Yesterday.
One, of the saddest of. the many UNI
usually sad funerals which come within
the experience Of a city missionary was
that of F. Chambers. held from the under-
taking rooms of Hume & Davies yester-
day afternoon.
Chambers came Of good family of Sinai!
Heath, Birmingham. Eng, and fell thru
his besetting sin into a deporable cons
dition, in which Rev. William Wilkinson
found him in a lodging house on Bridge
square. 4
The man was given new clothing and
a position was secured for him, after two
days Of search, in department store.
Two days afterward he was out of work
and money and again in deporable cons
dition because Of that same besetting sin.
Once more he was put upon his feet,
and this time secured a place as assistant
bookkeeper in. the 500 line, shops. He
had worked but a few days before pneu-
monia seized him and death speedily fol-
lowed.
The company saw. that the unfortunate
was given a decent burial. Eight of the
500 line clerks attended the funeral. Mr.,
Wilkinson read the service and the re-
mains were placed in the Lakewood ceme-
terry vault, A widow and one child whom
she had not seensfora over a year are left
in England. So far as is known, the man
had no relatives in this country.

 NEW ORLEANS. Sept. 3.-Liverpool advices were not encouraging. consequently ket opened 3@4 points lower subsequently ruled steady and improved g points shortly after on fresh buying About this time the bureau report was issued and as 1t proved to be more bearish than expected liquidation set in superinducing a break of 26 from the top on September, S5 on October and 27 the other positions. Shorts covering near the close occasioned an advance of 4@8 points from the bottom. making the net loss on the day 25 points on September, 29 on October and 25 on the other months. The bureau report made the general average condition SIP per cent. during the past month against GA per cent. last year. or I7.2 points over this. an in crease of 5 points over the July condition. Last year there was loss of l79 points dur ing the corresponding period. indicating a rela- tive gain this year for August of 9.4 points over last year, and an aggregate increase. of crease of 27 per cent. in condition over last year. As the crop last year was 10, 727, ,00o allowing the increase of 27 per cent. in con- dition 1t would point to a crop of I3.632 900 without considering the increase fin acreage of per cent. this year the bureaus revised increased acreage is added it would indicate a crop of l4,266, 900. These figures, however, are only problematical. it is claimed the crop is three weeks late, therefore, it is requi- site that perfect weather conditions should pre- vail for the balance of the season to make a more subject to many vicisstudes. which must be overcome and an early frost, if realized under existing conditions would undoubtedly prove very damaging. For the time being values may seek lower level on the disap- pointnent of the bureau. but sentiment in America continues bullish and any favorable feature transpiring in the future will be eagerly grasped to enhance values.
