YY'eekly Market Review.
Cotton.—The market has been quieter
and narrower although with frequent
minor fluctuations. Upon the whole the
temper has been slightly firmer, due to
moderate movement, and continued firm
ness and activity of Liverpool, where spot
takings have been again liberal. New
York is still bearishly inclined, although
not as generally so as formerly. That
feeling, however, still predominates there
enough to prevent them from responding
to the relative strength of Liverpool in
more than a half-hearted wav. The
strongest day was Tuesday, when the bu
reau unexpectedly promulgated an esti
mate of the crop. March advanced nearly
to 8.50 c that day, but reacted partially
later in the week, the market closing
barely steady at 8.39 c. The bureau puts
the crop at 6.375,000 bales of 500 pounds,
considered equal to about 6,500,000 average
weight. Those who believe in a crop of
over 7,000,000 bales claim that the usual
tendency of the bureau to underestimate
the total Justifies our expecting the same
this year, and consider or claim that the
bureau virtually sustains their position.
On the other hand we must remember
that the probabilities of error are much
less in a small crop, soon harvested, than
in a large crop, spun out away Into mid
winter. Besides, the report states that
many places have already marketed all
their cotton. The feature of the move
ment which bears out most strongly the
short crop side is the marked falling off
of receipts at some interior towns, which
hitherto have been running tolerably well
up to last year. The bears say that even
with a crop of 6,500,000 to 6.750,000 bales
prices are high enough. We cannot think
so. Last spring had any such crop been
assured, we would all have deemed very
much higher prices as certain. The
world’s consumption proceeds on a most
liberal scale, and those spinners who are
working up their reserves, will exhaust
their supplies after awhile, and then they
will have to come to our markets. Nor
are they apt to wait too long, fearing that
cotton may look much scarcer toward
spring.
Grain and Provisions—Wheat showed a
firm front early In the week, chiefly on
an unlooked for decrease in the visible
supply on Monday, when a 2,000,000 bushel
Increase had been expected. May sold as
high as 63'4c, but later the market turned
heavy again, losing all the advance and
more. In fact. May fell on Saturday to
60c, where it closed, which is nearly as
low as it has yet been this season. Weak
ness abroad, and some talk of expected
heavier supplies from other exporting
countries, seem to have been the chief
ostensible cause of the break. No doubt,
however, much was due to the forced li
quidation of the trades of a large con
cern suspended for violation of the rules.
Here, statistics are growing stronger, and
the government report for December was
not of a character to discourage holders,
the condition being materially lower than
had been expected. We agree with our
Chicago friends in approving purchases at
around 60c for May.
Corn and oats have also declined In
sympathy with wheat, and closed at 28%c
and 19c for May, respectively. These
prices are so low as to render unlikely any
further material depression. They act as
a damper on marketing the stufT, and
lead to enormous waste. Prices do not al
ways remain low In large crop years for
these commodities. In fact, they advance
sometimes after the most enormous
crops so materially as to cause many to
think that the extent of the yield has
comparatively little effect in the long run
in the case of hi heavy crop.
Provisions have showed a firmer front
in the face of the weakness in grain, pork
closing at a gain of 20<g25e from lowest,'
and ribs 12Wc. There is some little more
life in domestic spot demand, and Eu
rope is expected to take larger quantities,
on account of the unusually low prices
now prevailing. May pork closed at
$8.87%; lard at $5.5216, and ribs at $4.52M>.

BOOK NOTICES.
“Two Years on ihe Alabama,’’ by Ar
thur Sinclair, lieutenant C. S. A. Lee &
Sheppard, 10 Milk street, Boston, pub
lishers. Sold by agents. Edward M. An
derson, agent in Savannah. Cloth, $3.00.
This is one of the most interesting of
the series of the civil war books. It
gives a much better idea of the Ala
bama, what she accomplished, her offi
cers, the daily life aboard of her, than
any other book in print. It contains
thirty illustrations, among them being
the portraits of all who held official po
sitions. The typographical work is fine,
and the paper is of the best. It is a very
desirable book from every point of view'.
It is understood that the book was writ
ten at the request of the surviving offi
cers. The work l(as been well done,
and, as a consequence, the author has
given to the world a graphic narrative.
While it may not be so valuable as Com
mander Semmes history of the Alabama
as a book of reference, it is far more
entertaining to the general reader, since
it gives so many graphic Incidents of
life aboard the famous cruiser. It is
needless to say that Mr. Sinclair has
made an interesting book, whatever the
sympathies of the reader in regard to
the merits of the great struggle. We
are introduced to the officers and men
and taken with them to share their ev
eryday life and adventure on board.
It is a book that will be eagerly read
by all lovers of adventurous story. The
appendix contains historical matter, bi
ographical notices of the officers, statis
tics, etc. Photographic illustrations,
many of which are portraits, from or
iginal photographs, are freely used to
give value to the work.

Of several new stories of Lincoln told
in the second installment of the new “Life
of Lincoln,” in McClure's Magazine for
December, one of the most interesting Is
that, when Lincoln removed with his fam
ily from Indiana to Illinois, he made thrif
ty use of the opportunities of the Journey
to peddle out, at a good profit, a stock, of
small wares which he had bought for the
purpose. The whole Installment is rich
in picturesque details. Along with the
paper are twenty-five pictures, including
a facsimile of Lincoln's first vote, por
traits of him in 1856, 1857, 1858 and 1860, por
traits of his early associates, and pictures
of all the important scenes of this period
of his life. Elizabeth fltuart Phelps, in
the same number, describes, with fond
and humorous touches, her girlhood in
one of the most attractive of New Eng
land university towns, relating how she
secretly began her literary career at the
tender age of thirteen, and giving charm
ing reminiscences of her father. Prof.

AY EXCITING THUN- RCM WAY.
C’nused by a Slight Collision .furring
Open the Locomotive Throttle,.
From the Philadelphia Record.
A runaway locomotive with four freight
cars dashed up the Philadelphia and
Reading railroad from Wissahickon to
Conshohocken yesterday morning spread
ing consternation among the railroads
hands all along the way, and narrowly es
caping catastrophe of the most serious
character. Shifting engine 231, in charge
of Engineer John Dernbach, was drilling
cars into the sidings above the Wissa
hickon station. Fearing the approach of
an up train, Brakemen Deegan was sent
toward Wissahickon with a flag, but be
fore he had reached the sharp curve, a
construction train, with engine 432 at
tached, came along at rapid speed and
crashed into the slowly moving freight
drill. Seeing that a collision was inevit
able, Engineer Dernbach and Fireman
Hayden jumped from the slnftcr to save
their lives. w
The sudden jar opened the throttle of
the shifter, and the engine started up
the line, gaining in speed at every turn
of the wheels. Attached to the shifter
were three coal cars and a box car. At
Cedar street the rear truck of the box
car jumped the track and ran on the ties
to near the deep cut at Robinson street,
when the wheels regained the rails. Up
through Manayunk the train dashed
along at express speed, the cars and en
gine swaying to and fro in such fashion
that the spectators expected to see them
topple over every minute. Flagmen, un
conscious of the accident, waved their
flags for the coming train, but stood
aghast, with wondering eyes, to see it
dash past without an occupant in the
gab. The telegraph was quickly tick ing
off a warning along the line, notifying ail
station agents to be on the look out. At
the Manayunk freight siding Conductor
McVey of the regular freight, had Just
run hfs train on the long siding, and was
still holding the switch lever when the
runaway dashed past him. Had the wild
train came along an instant before a bad
smash-up would have taken place.
Engineer Dernbach and his fireman
picked themselves up from the mud along
side the road and mounted the engine of
the construction train along with Engi
neer O’Brien. The engine was cut loose,
and with throttle wide open started in
pursuit of the runaway train. The first
sight of the runaway was had while
rounding the sharp curves at Fiat Rock.
The wild shifter was then half a mile
away and puffing for ail it was worth. At
Spring Mill a few hundred yards sepa
rated the flyers. 'Then steam began to
get low in the runaway, and the lighter
engine was able to overtake the shifter
and couple to It lust as It was entering
Conshohocken. Then It was quickly
brought to a standstill. Preparations had
been made at Conshohocken to run the
wild train on the Plymouth branch, with
a tdlnd switch open to receive It a short
distance above the station.
Many narrow escapes were recorded by
|(ed*lV!an* and teamsters, who Just
tparaped to avoid being run down.

CRIME S PLAGUE SPOT.
BLACK RECORD FOR CEN’I’l RIKS OF
A ROMAN Y’ILLAGE.
YY Irked nena That In Inherited—Ap
palling Statlatles of Assassination.
Justice Powerless to Remeily the
Evil.
From the San Francisco Chronicle.
“A Country of Born Criminals” Is what
Prof. Slchele of the University of Plea
entitles his article on Artena, an Italian
village, in a recent issue of “Archives
d’Anthropologie.” The province of Rome
lias long been famous for crime, and
Artena, a Roman village, of about 4,(D0
inhabitant?, is the most strongly crim
inal community In the province. That
has been Its reputation since the middle
of the twelfth century.
Artena, or Montefortino, as it was an
ciently called, stands on a hill 400 feet
above sea level, and Is on the edge of a
mountain range. The inhabitants are
mostly farmers, and they till a rich soil,
so that there is no deep poverty in the
region. The conditions and surroundings
are such as to encourage the rugged vir
tues. The place has. from a military
point of view, an almost impregnable site,
and its earlier name commemorated this
fact. Perhaps the earliest mention of the
place in Italian history occurrs in 1155,
when the frequency of crime is noted,
Pope Paul IV issued an edict against the
place in 1557, describing its inhabitants
as of notoriously evil life. He ordered
that the castle, “a nest of robbers,” be
destroyed, and that all the male inhab
itants be banished, and decreed that any
man who met them might kill them. The
edict was, in fact, one of outlawry against
the male iopulatlon. His holiness named
among the crimes of Montefortino not
only robbery, but also murder and assault
upon the papal soldiery.
The pope's tremendous edict did not de
populate the place or greatly change/tne
character of its Inhabitants for any lV3g
period, for the crimes of Montefortino ap
pear and reappear In Italian history from
that day to this. Prof. Sieheie sketches
the criminal history of Montefortino fur
the last half century. During that fiigiou
the vendetta has reigned there unchecked.
From 1851 to 1868 the courts were powet
less to deal with the accused because It
was impossibivr to obtatp evidence to
convict. An official report in 1572 aescrlb-.
ed the place as a stronghold of murder
ers, assassins, extortioners and incendi
aries, active night und day. it was de
clared that the criminals of that day
were the children of criminals who had
perished in the galleys or on the scaffold,
and that they had organized a monopoly
of the profitable industry of crime. It
was about this time that the village, as
is anxious to forget its past, changed its
name to Artena. But erlme has since
increased rather than diminished, and
the criminals of to-day bear the same
names as the hereditary criminals of mon
than twenty years ago. The assizes of
1879, 1881 and 1883 were fruitless, os no
one was convicted of a serious ?t Ino*.
though there were many indictments.
Between 1879 and 1886 Artena had four
mayors, and the life of each was attempt
ed. One was actually assassinated, and
the other three were wounded. One was
shot in broad daylight in the market
place, but the would-be assassin was not
punished.
Between 1863 and 1872 there were forty
two murders and assassinations in Arte
na. This would be at a mean annual rate
of 52.5 per 100.600. Tlie rate throughout
Italy has varied in recent years from 7.73
to 16.80 per 100,000 and the mean annuul
rate throughout Italy Is 9.38 per 100.OKI.
The number of murders and assassina
tions at Artena between 1873 and 1888
was thirty-seven, or at the rate of 61.50
per 100,000. The moan annual number of
such crimes per 100,000 throughout the
whole province of Rome is 25.40. In other
words, the rate of Artena during the pe
riod named is more than double that of
the province. The rale for various Euro
pean countries is 0.94 to 12.67.
Artena is equally notorious for lighter
crimes. Between 1853 and 1872 there were
164 assaults with attendant wounds. This
would be at the rate of 205 per 100,000. In
the same period there were 66 highway
robberies, or at the annual rate of 85 per
100,000. The annual rate for assault
throughout all Italy Is 34.17 per 100,000, and
■ for highway robbery 3.67 per 100,000. Arte
na had between 1853 and 1872 116 thefts, or
at the rate of 145.5 annually per 100,000,
and between 1873 and 1888 127 at the rate of
211.5 per 100,000. The rate for all Italy
between 1879 and 1887 was 47.36 per 100,000.
At tne recent assizes at Artena thirty
two persons were accused of crime. There
were eight charges of highway robbery,
three of murder and one of assassination.
: There were more than forty persons
1 strongly suspected of crime, but the niim
i her of accusations was reduced in order
: that fewer persons in the community
might be interested against the adminls
i tratlon of justice. The old names again
I appeared among the accused. It seems
that crime is hereditary in comparatively
j few families. One of these families is
! the Pomponi. They have been famous
i for generations. The father has served
a long term in jail, the mother was im
prisoned for thirty years; three of the
sons have been sentenced to long terms,
and the fourth, a lad of 13, escaped con
viction because of his youth. I’asquale
Villani, a famous rogue, called himself
the “mirror of the country,” meaning
that he was a model of virtue. Francisco
Bucci on being reminded from the bench
by the presiding judge that he had sought
to draw an acquaintance into a icrim
inal affair, proudly replied:
“What need have I to ask aid in commit
lng a crime? I am equal to pillaging a
whole village single-handed.”
The prisoners had no shame In their ca
reer, and there was great competiton as
to which of them should have his picture
made for an illustrated paper of Rome.
The characteristic of these people under
accusation is usually an absolute silence.
Witnesses are reticent and timid. One un
willing witness, however, let drop the In
criminating word "paranza." The usual
meaning or paranza Is a sub-group of the
Italian criminal society called "Csmorra."
This last has a great chief, while the pa
ranza is a group under a small chief, with
treasurer, secretary and other officers. It
Is supposed that the Camorra does not ex.
Ist as such at Artema. but that the pa
ranza i* a small lndepende it organiza
tion of local criminals. The law of the
paranza at Artena, as of the Camorra
elsewhere, is silence, reciprocal false te -
tlmony in court, defense of the accuse!
with the aid of a common fund, and death
!to informers. Fnsquale Villani was at
once chief and treasurer of file Artena pa
rauzn lie furnished false witnessed, paid
the attorneys and waiohed the trial with
the uimoat care.
Prof. fl||rhd* > b**ll*veii that erlme in prl*
mtirllv hr#dUiirv t Artmnm Up think*
this, more than anything else, accounts
for its persistence, organization, with
the terrorizing of the weil-ordered portion
of the community, lias helped to perpetu
ate this state of affairs. Justice has fail
ed alike under the pupal government and
under that of the king. The Camorra in
rural Italy usually takes the form of
brigandage; in cities the form of crimes
against property and cunning devices. At
Artena, once a nest of brigands, it takes
the form of murder, highway robbery und
theft. Crime there makes small pretense
of secrecy.
YV 11Y COTTON DOESN’T ADVANCE.
The Henson Is the Relief That the
Next Crop W ill He u 111 k One.
Greenwood. Fla., Dec. 13.—Editor Morn
ing News: As your valued Journal Is
perhaps more widely circulated than any
other southern paper, and is read more
extensively by the southern cotton plant
er than any other. I have decided that
at tills time It would be well to agitate
the question of the acreage of the next
cotton crop, especially so as at this time
the buying and selling of the present
short crop is much affected by the san
guine feelings of the consumer of the
large (crop which they consider certain)
to be grown next year. Their expecta
tion is based on the httherto persistent
folly ot the average cotton farmer in
producing It in excess of demand, when
ever there Is a hope of even a llttio.
profit, ami now that prices have ad
vanced, they feci that nothing can pre
vent the next crop from being
■. *’ K , , . one .’ 1 believe that
if it could he known now that another
crop, not Lo exceed the present one,
would be grown next year, cotton would
be worth 10 cents at the gin, in less than
twenty .lays, whereas. If the present
feeling in reference to the next crop pre
vails, I would not lie surprised to see
it drop below present figures, even be
fore the question is settled. It would
not be amiss here to give you a few argu
ments to show that the farmers' inter
est will be promoted to continue the
production on the basis of the present
year. Instead of enlarging acreage, for
it is a fact that a 6,500,0 i-bale crop is
worth more In dollars and cents at Scents
per pound by SIO,(KK>,IMO thun would be
a 10,(8X1,000-bale crop at 5 cents per pound
not to say anything of the vast lessening
of labor and material to produce the lesser
crop. The country Is to-day in better shape
than it has been In years for the reason
that small debts were contracted for Ihe
production of the last crop and largo
amounts of provisions have been made on
lands hitherto planted In cotton which
puts the country on its feet for future
cheap production. Many say: "I can make
no other rse of my provisions whereby I
can convert them into money, tint by mak
ing cotton.” 1 would urge on the farmers
not to let this delude them, for as sure
as the crop Is Increased to the 10,000,(100-
liale limit so sure will their folly uppear
at Belling time. Do not delude yourselves
l.y supposing your neighbors will lessen
and you therefore Increase, for if this
thing is controlled It must he by common
consent every man acting In good faith.
I have had but little faith in efforts hith
erto made to control the acreage, hill as
come results come of the cotton growers
association, the present year 1 shall look
to that organization to concentrate effort
again in the same direction. What ar* the
plans of the association? Will 1t again try
to control the acreage? If it can be done I
shall regard it as the grandest benefaction
of the age. Subscriber.
