SLUGGISH MARKET
At NEW ORLEANS
Fluctuations In Price of Cot
ton Are Narrow and
Sluggish

New Orleans. December 1.-F'luctuations
In the price of cotton today were narrow
and sluggish. In the morning session
the most active months were 2 points
over yesterdays close; in the afternoon
they were points under. The close was
unchanged to 2 points down, compared
with yesterdays close. The market was

tiers and locally spots lost Il on sales of
2o30 bales. Dallas lost 1.16 and sold 94s7
bales. Bulls expressed the opinion that
on any further declines exporters would
take hold in a large way. The days
foreign shipments totalled 25,0O7 bales,
making exports thus far this season 1886
430 bales. On the other hand stocks at
the principal interior points increased to
639,946 bales while stocks at all ports
amounted to 1,245,257.
A feature of the news of the day was
the report tnat at some southern ports
schooners were being chartered owing to
the lack of steamships. 1t was said
they would carry cotton direct to German
ports.

LIQUIDATION IN
DECEMBER COTTON
Prices Ease Off and Close
Is Steady at Slight
Decline

New York. December 1.--There was a
renewal of December liquidation In cot
ton here today and prices eased off
The close was steady at a net decline of
to TO points. Circulation of few adj
ditional December notices appeared large
ly responsible for the selling of near
months. Reports that larger amounts of
consigned cotton were arriving here from
the south led to predictions of further
notices between now and the end of the
month. Other winter and spring deliv-
cries also declined under scattered liauida-
ton Later deliveries We're relatively
steady with some investment buying of
october in evidence around the Sc level.
The market opened steady at a / to 3
steady cables, but soon turned easier
under selling. There also appeared to
be a little selling here from New Orleans
and eastern belt points. These offerings
were not heavy enough to suggest any
material weakening of the spot situation.
but the appearance led to talk of slack
ening spot demand The market soon
eased off with December selling points
and later deliveries about to 7 points
net lower. December closed at the lowest
point of the day, but later deliveries
showed slight rallies on covering.
Arrivals at New York today included
1853 bales consigned, the largest amount
of consigned cotton received here for
some months

THE FINANCIAL SITUATION

New York. December Apart from its
greater breadth due to increased offerings
todays market for listed bonds on the
movement OF the preceding session The
volume of business was larger In the
earlier hours. but it tapered off, the spec
ulative issues contributing more than
their quota 10 the days total Lower
prices generally were established and in
some issues trading came to an abrupt
halt because the low level fixed by the
exchange had been reached.
SO far as could be judged by surface
conditions, considerable proportion of
the selling originated with banks and 9TH
er financial institutions Individual Of
ferings were small and chiefly for out
of town account. With few exceptions
brokers reported little investment demand
and 1t generally was believed no pro-
nounced inquiry was likely TO develop
until the price was further readjusted.
Money was the interesting feature of
the day. its increased ease reflecting the
further piling up of cash at this center.
Cali loans were made soon after the open
ing at 4 per cent. and many time loans
on all industrial collateral were effected
at per cent Renewals OF loans ma
turing today were in virtually every in
stance made on basis more favorable
than the original rates.
Retirement by New York banks of all
clearing house certificates was In itself
an element of Importance and this was
followed by further reduction today of
emergency currency. In fact New York
banks are almost as free from temporary
aid as they were before the foreign dis
turbance began.

Airedale Tramped Back Home


The story of the airedale that
tramped back home 1875 miles is only
one of many such instances. 1t did the
journey in 20 days. Another dog was
taken 100 miles by train and arrived
back home in three weeks. A fox ter
rier was taken distance of $50 miles,
but within few days it found it's way
back to its old home.
Japanese collie was taken to the

was then taken back home, over mile
away. The next evening the dog found
it's way back to the surgery and as
soon as the door was opened jumped
up on the operating table and waited
till the vet could attend to 1t. For
many Evenings after, punctually at 5
o'clock, it visited the surgery and sub
mitted to the process and then went
home.

GAINS IN WHEAT
NOT FULLY HELD
Bulls Are Confident Almost
From Start-COrn Raj
lies-Oats Strong

Chicago, December diminishing re-
ceipts in the southwest helped today to
give an upward swing to wheat prices al
though gains were not fully held. The
market closed steady at ssd1sc to &c net
advance. Corn wound up the same as
last night to sc higher and oats up Nc
h@hc. In provisions the outcome was
1oG121ac to aoc decline.
Advices said arrivals at Kansas City
might be expected to show eemarkable
falling off as farmers We're standing out
firmly for a decided price upturn. It
was pointed out that shipments from big
primary terminals taken as a whole had
become about equal to the arrivals.
Excessive rains in Argentina made
wheat bulls confident almost from the
start Sentiment later against the bears
grew rapidly when it was found there
was free export buying in all directions,
including 10000 bushels for the relief of
the starving Belgians.
Corn rallied with wheat and as a re-
suit of indications that the heavy ship
ping movement to this city had been
checked. Big receipts here, however, de-
pressed the market in the early part of
the session. Oats showed independent
strength. There was an active cash de-
mand mainly for export.
Provisions suffered break in conse-
quence of hog receipts here being more
plentiful than at any previous time for
months.
