COTTON MARKETS.
NEW YORK.

NEW YORK, November 1S.-The cot
ton market opened steady today at a
decline of 2 to points in response to
disappointing cables. There was some
Liverpool selling here, particularly of
July. while there was some further
Wall street selling, but offerings were
not heavy and the market soon steadied
on scattered covering and trade buy
ing Talk of small ginning returns
and the continued absence of spot
pressure probably encouraged reac-
tionary sentiment after the recent
sharp decline, and after selling at 11.50
on the call, January rallied to lilo.
while March advanced from 11.S5 to
11.96. or about points over last

and the market showed increasing firm
ness during the middle of the morning,
with January selling UP to 11.75 and
March to 1902, or about 10 to II points
above last nights closing figures A
further advance in sterling exchange

WHEAT PRICES STRONGER
ON NORTHWEST REPORTS

CHICAGO, November 1S.-Unsettled
weather and the fact that receipts in
the northwest were smaller, tended
today to strengthen the price of wheat.
Assertions that steamship rates to
Great Britain had become a little easier
helped also to some extent to encour-
age the bulls.
On the other hand, lower quotations
from Liverpool acted as a check on
the buying here. After opening AaA

SPECTACULAR FIREWORKS ILLUMINATION. ON RIGHT. THE OUT
LINES IN 1NcANDEscENT LIGHTS OF THE OREGON.

TINE lighting Of the Panana.P Pacific Inter
national Exposition is undoubtedly the
most novel and effective illumination the
world has known. Former President Roosevelt
described 1t as 'the most wonderful illumination
in history and "the greatest glory Of the ex-
POSITION"
Thomas A. Edison, who recently visited the
exposition. said that the illumination marked II
new development in lighting. which he would
describe as art lighting; and he added that In
the use Of color and reflected light Engineer w.
DA. Ryan had produced something new and
novel and very artistic.
At night the exposition becomes magical AMI
elusive; under the play Of the most powerful
Noarchlights made the vast exhibit palaces take
on an indcscribablc lustre and brilliancy. rs
though they themselves were sources Of light.
