NEW YORK COTTON.

NEW YORK, January 2s.-The cotton
market opened steady at unchanged prices
to a decline of points. which was better
than due on the cables. and held steady
during the first few minutes on covering
and buying Of the same character as that
noted toward the close of last week. But
the big estimate for tomorrow's receipts at
Houston weakened the market later, and
prices eased of to a net loss of about 5a6
points on the old crop months during the
middle of the morning under liquidation
and selling by some Of the room bears
Trading was quiet and mostly local.
The market was frmer late in the fore

cotton more freely. and prices at midday

Rise Of the Humble Yam.

From the Seattle Poet-Intelllgencer.
At length the humble yam. hitherto un-
recognized except in certain syncopated
classics sung by the dusky denlzens at the
south. has risen to the dignity Of a ma
tional problem. Erstwhile the persimmon
was thrust into the lime light through q
decree which knocked the quicker out,
though nature made the pucker first as
a sort of basic principle, and built the
persimmon around 1t, just as the Italian
builds his macaroni and the Dutchman
hts pretzel around hole in the air. The
persimmon is pertinent in any discussion
of the yam, for the persmmon and the
yam are perpetual where the 'possum
blooms
Which reflection Is suggested by a re-
mark in President Roosevelt's recent mes
sage on Panama. While discussing 18TH
milan food problems, he said there was
much complaint, especially, among the
bachelors as to =" the food they got
especially as regards yams," and
he added: "The married men and women
and the more advanced bachelors ex-
pressed some dissatisfaction because they
generally could not get yams."

LOCAL F1NAnc1A1 NEWS

There was not much change noted In the
character of the trading at the meeting OF
the stock exchange today from that which
marked 1t during the week just passed. A
somewhat higher level was reached In the
common stock Of the Washington Railway
and Electric Company, Al tho sales made
were on range OF from 40A to 40h At
one time the bid rose to 401z. and there was
also a bid made of 4OA for an option.
There was not much done in the stock.
the total sales reaching $50 shares. At
the close the bid was 4O3l and the asking
price a quarter OF a point in advance OF
that.
A 25-share lot of gas stock sold for 81.
and that comprised the entire trading In
that security, with the exception of couple
of fractional lots which were taken az z
somewhat lower range. The bid renamed
at 66A and the asking price 81. The ia.ter
was the same as the figures on Saturday,
but the bid price showed slight advance.
What Is noted as easily tho most impor-
tant financial event Of the past week by the
Wall street Journal is the sale by the Van
derbilt system Of $50O00,OOO three-year
per cent notes at par less commission:
SIS 1000 three-year per cent notes OF

reached by this authority Is that these

enough amounts to enable them to proceed
with their plans of development. The fact.
it is added. that considerable portion OF
the money now available for SUCH pur-
poses will come from abroad is also an IN
dication that the reputation Of this country
has not suffered as seriously as to impair
the confidence of European investors.
1t is further reported today that the In

Special Dispatch 10 Inc star.
NEW YORK, January 2s.-It would not
be easy to select from the days category
of topics which were under discussion. the
CHIEF factor in today's further sagglhs
course of the stock market. The report OF
the Interstate commerce commission upon
its investigation Of Standard OH aHalrs
which was transmitted to Congress today
In view of all the prevailing circumstances
of the general situation created naturally
profprndly unfavorable impression.
Then. again. there was much anxiety Win
regard to the upshot of the settlement upon
the London stock exchange. which Will
begin tomorrow. Stiff contango rates were
exactcd at todays settlement in South At
rican mining shares. The nervousness with
regard to the London stock exchange settle
ment was naturally fostered by recent adj
vices from that point suggesting serious
weakness on the part of several large deal
ers in the American department.
American securities were rather excep-
tlonally heavy in the London stock mar
ket today but the operations here for for
eign account showed only a small prepon-
deranre OF sales. The Bank Of England Sc
cured practically me who. Of the 6 10000
which arrived In the open London market
today. but the banks acquisition OF this
large sum failed to stimulate materially the
London stock market at large.
A Persistent Rumor.
One more factor in the course of the local
stock marke, was the persistent circula-
ton of the rumor which has attained cur
rency before this of the serious irdisposi-
ton OF the most conspicuous individual In
the affairs of the Union and Southern Pa
clfic systems. These reports were not veri-
fed but inasmuch as they fitted in with
the general color scheme of the lays all
street atmosphere they were accepted with
out particular question. 1t was probably
the case also that the. course followed by
number of particular stocks had no little
to do with shaping that was pursued by the
market at large.
After making a faint show of strength in
the early part of the day, the United States
Steel shares developed weakness and Anal
gamated Copper reflected fairly constant
pressure The dividends the United
States Steel shares will be acted on to-
morrow again and the pressure upon the
common stock was undoubtedly reflex OF
the general REIMBURSEMENT of the idea that
that issue. There was also much talk most
of which was highly exaggerated, as to the
extent of the reaction. in the iron and
steel trades. -.

White Bear in Pennsylvania.

From the Philadelphia Record.
White deer are quite common in the West
Branch valley but the latest albino freak
in that section is a white bear. At least
this is what the residents Of the Dougherty's
Run district, Lycoming county, say. the
aforesaid white bear having been seen twice
within three weeks, those who have en-
countered 1t being Frank Weaver and q
Miss Heller, both residents Of Dousherty's

A chILD,S LAUGHTER.

All the bells of heaven may ring,
All the birds of heaven may sing,
All the wells on earth may spring,
All the winds on earth my bring
All sweet sounds together;
Sweeter far than all things heard,
Hand of harper, tone of bird.
Sound OF woods at shutdown stirred,
yelling waters winsome word,
Wind in warm, wan weather.
One thing yet there is, that none
Hearing ere it's chime be done.
Knows not well the sweetest one
Heard of man beneath the sun.
Hoped in heaven hereafter:
Soft and strong and loud and light,
Very sound of very light
Heard from mornings rosiest height
When the soul of all clear delight
Fills a child's clear laughter.
Golden bells of welcome rolled
Never forth such notes, nor told
Hours to blithe in tones so bold
AS the radiant mouth OF gold
Here that rings forth heaven.
IL the golden-crested wren
Were a nightingale--why, then,
Something seen and heard of men
Might be half a sweet as when
Laughs child of seven.
-Swineburne.

Survivors of the Union army value
