HAYWARD, WICK & CO.'S COTTON
 LETTER.

tVIrgin & Falince, Mgrs.D
 NEW ORLEANS, Dec. 1O-The cotton market a typical Saturday affair. Prices moved within narrow limits and the volume of trade was small The growth of bullsh sentiment which was in evidence yesterday was arrested and the majority of the trade seemed to be slowly returning to the conviction that prices were going lower. The chief feature of the day was the slump in the Liverpool market. Private dispatches said that Egyptian houses sold freely and that orders to sell also came from New York with the evident purpose of depressing prices. The opinion express ed that Price was a heavy seller.
 The weekend figures were even more bearish than the bears had hoped for, and were extremely disappointing to the bulls. who had relied on some waYers from the statisticians this week.
 Mil takings showed up sensationaiiy

 NEW ORLEANS. Dec 10.--A nine -poin.
 of short session of trading was far in excess of all logical expectations. New York selling orders were stated to have been
 the cause of depression. Spots tffcred con- siderably more resistance. depreciating only one point on sales of 5000 bales. Consider ing the rather gloomy foreign news. our
 market opened higher than expected and for
 a short period showed tendency to i'm
 prove. the buying being principally for ac-
 count of recent shorts. and covering with contracts spots sold to spinners. Later, val
 ues eased temporarily on reported heavy
 selling for Wall Street accounts The range of fluctuations was narrow, however, and a steady market prevailed. Both the visible
 supply figures and small mills takings for
 the week were bearish features, the latter probably deceptively so, the mills are known to have contracted for full supplies covering deliveries, some months ahead, and
 the smaller takings now simply mean larger figures in subsequent weeks. The-s remain
 a satisfactory business in dry goods. Stocks are low and buyers heretofore have only
 purchased In fulfiliment of immediate re- quirements. Mills still unwilling to fully meet the reductions justified by the decreased price of material, and the demand has bSen sufficient to encourage firmness. These are the encouraging fea-
 lures of the market, but we think with ap- proximately 6.000. 900 bales of cotton yet to
 neutralized. That some gloominess at the
 present low levels and prospects should be expressed is natural, and as one planter writes to his New Orleans correspondent: "Of all sad words of tongue or pen, the
 saddest are these we waited for ten"

CHICAGO, Dec. 1o.-Reports of immense stocks of wheat in Northwestern elevators day. At the close May wheat was down %c. compared with yesterdays final figures Corn shows loss of < Q 1ac. Oats are off Mc. Provisions ranged from 2hc to 15c lower.
 Much news of a depressing nature came from Minneapolis. where largely increased arrivals of wheat were said to be looked for. With e64 cars reported as received there today and 1000 promised for Mon- day traders here took hold gingerly. May started with loss of 4 @hc. at 1.1o& e 1. .10h. Except for a brief rally to 1.10A. due to filling Uf moderate buying orders. the popular temper seemed to be so sell. The sentiment later. however, became quali- fled by an &ident feeling the part of some operators that the Government report, to be issued after the session closed, would show lower condition for the growing crap. In consequence May, after sinking to 10 h, showed some renewal of strength and to- ward the last had largely recovered the early loss. The close was steady at 1 1o%. Primary receipts were 947400 bushels. against ss1.SOo last year. Clearances of wheat and flour were equal to 72,522 bush els. Minneapolis and Duluth report ed receipts of IaS cars. which. with 23 last week and sl7 a year ago. .
 Cash houses sold May corn against country offerings. There was scattered GOV ering by shorts, but the selling movement was later augmented by offerings by com mission houses and pit longs. May starting unchanged at AZ GAS. was reduced to A. showing but small improvement in the clos ing trades at 44h. Local receipts were 563 cars, 23 of contract grade.
 Oats were steady at fractional decline. Commission houses were the best buyers. Their wants were easily supplied. Changing from December to May at 2K G2hc diff ference was feature of trading. May opened a shade lower at 30h G3O%, sold within a narrow range and closed steady at S0h. Local receipts were S1 cars.
 Provisions were influenced by the heavy run of hogs. There were outside buying or ders that supported values at the start, but selling, attributed to the packers. lowered prices throughout the list. At the close May pork was off 15c at IS. 80. Lard was down Dc at 7.07h. Ribs showed loss pf 2la Q5c at 6.72k.

GETTING SETTLERS.
Some Information as to How Towns arc
 Built in a Day.
(By William R.

(By William R. Draper)
 In the South where some of the towns are a hundred years old, and where even villages or a few hundred souls were fifty years in building, the inhabitants often wonder how and why new towns spring up on the prairies of the West in a day. a night, week. Had any of the readers of this newspaper accompanied a recent excursion from the Southland to Oklahoma where a town was built by a Southern man almost in a day, as it were, and have witnessed the wonderful enthusiasm, the great excitement and the tremend- ous profit for the builders of the town of Carmen. Oklahoma, they would have ceased to wonder.
 The reason new towns grow out West-in the Southwest more especial

 In the case of a few of the coal carriers. both in the anthracite and the soft coal groups. today's closing prices are slightly largest declines have been very much fe- ducej. Reading was prominent figure in today's trading and very encouraging re- ports of coal traffic helped stocks of all railroads with a large percentage of that class of freight. There was some evidence of renewed liquidation in some spots at times. but the whole market became very strong in the late trading and closed firm near the best.
 Covering of short contracts by . retreat ing bear party apparently played a consid- erable part in the rise and the demand was rather urgent at some points. notably Amal- gamated Copper. Rumors were revived of property consolijations coming dividend surprises, capital readjustment and other up to the time of the crash and the 'specula- tion took on much the same appearance as before. Northern Securities touched a new high record on the curb and the settlement rumors regarding that corporation renewed their potent effect on speculative sentiment.
