 Just before adjournment, Alderman Sullivan introduced motion in regard to the payment of city licenses. which was lost. It was essentially as follows: eBe 1t resolved, That all licenses due the city need not be paid on the lst of August and not until such time as further mo- tification from the City Clerk shall ap- point MT. Sullivan was under the impression that all city licenses were required to be paid by August i. which Is mistake. as members of the Coun- ell pointed out to him. The ordinance which he sought to introduce is un- necessary. as the licenses do not have to be paid on that date. The notices sent out by the City Clerk state that the licenses may" be paid August i.
 The special meeting of the Council was adjourned at about 10 o'clock af- ter session of an hour and a half.

 STATIONARY.
The New York Market Was Character txed by Absence of ManipuIstien And Futures Showed Only
 Slight Chanxen

Twinlike in similarity was the cot ton market of yesterday and that of the day preceding. To be brief there was nothing doing. Spinners might have desired to purchase many bales of cotton, but if so they concealed their wishes with admirable dissimulation. Practically no sales were recorded in the local market and quotations drop ped off an eighth ,of point. middling having a potential value of ten.

round, but he came up freshened for the seven
