amonß (he vessels in port. Whether

1 \ t lh ,,t formerly came here sought
* r fields. The recent war with Spain
fd nothing to do with the absence of
vessels, so far as Savannah was
concerned, as they quit visiting the port
time before hostilities began. It is
’ , ,and that properly directed efforts along
'iine would result in good to the ship

' w ould doubtless mean reduced
Spanish steamship Satillo arrived at
Ri.dmore during the past week with a
“ 0 of sulphur. She was formerly the
? r ' . u\.inship Tottenham. She belongs
, compania Maritima Rodas, of BII
L‘ Spain, which recently purchased scv
tral English steamships, and will make
' effort to obtain a trade with Ameri
‘ ports It is stated the Satillo’s ap
‘ 'ranee at Baltimore is the llrst Span-
L steamship which has been there for
,t.ar~ The tirst was the steamship Mi
jjjna now at Norfolk loading grain for
i continental port.
The steamship Gyler, plying between
Galveston and ports of the West Indies,
ir"l now loading cargo at the company’s
wharf at Galveston, is regarded by sea
ua, JS a lucky craft. The vessel, during
ue Spanish-American war, had some nar
row escapes, but always managed to get
eat of them without serious trouble. Her
pod luck still follows her, and the aver
se salt, who is a superstitious individual,
i iild jump at the chance to ship aboard
hr. During the big hurricane which play
ed havoc in the vicinity of the West In
dies, and in which so many vessels were
lest, the Gyler’s master, obeying the warn
ing of the weather bureau, remained in
prrt and escaped the storm. On her trip
to Galveston this time she struck the edge
of a hurricane, which had she encounter
ed might have sent her to Davy Jones’
lorkir And this is not all the luck the
craft has played in. When she reached
Jiayaquez, loaded with flour and lumber
for that port, and entered at the custom
bouse, the officials informed the master
that the duty on those articles had been
removed the previous day. This meant a
saving of about $5,000 duty. The master,
otrnc-rs, shippers and sailors say she is a
lucky craft, and there are none to dispute
them.
According to a St. Petersburg corre
tpmdent. the ice-breaking steamship Yer
tnk is shorlly to take up a more important
work than ever. This is to keep the navi
gation open during the coming winter, not
only between St. Petersburg and Cron
sadt, a distance of twenty miles, but
also as far as Rcval and Libau, on the
Baltic.
If the Yermah succeeds in keeping the
Gulf of Finland and the Baltic open to
navigation, the shipping trade of St. Pe
te- 'urg will be greatly affected thereby.
Hitherto the shipping trade of the capital
tci Cronstadt has been impossible for
•bout six months every year; during the
tinier a certain amount of trade is car
ried on by rail to those Baltic ports which
happen to be open to navigation.
Trial has been commenced in the United
States District Court at Baltimore of the
euit against James Westoll, owner of the
British steamship Gladys Royle, and
Seenken & Rerkermeier, stevedores, in
rtich $20,000 damages are claimed for the
death of John Dombroska. It Is said to
k the first admiralty case tried in Mary
land under what is known as Lord Camp
act. which permits suits to be
brought for deaths caused by negligence.
Dombroska was a stevedore and was in
ttaruly killed in 1898 by falling down a
Hatchway of the steamship Locust Point.
His widow and five children brought the
nit.
It Is probable that there will be mate
dai increase in steamship rates to Alaskan
lorts and the Klondike points, commenc
hg with the opening of navigation on the
fukon next season. It is said that the
idvanee will be in passenger rates, the
reight schedules remaining as at pres
;nt‘ The regulation of those rates is
vithin the province of Alaska Transpor
. °n Association members, which com-
Puget Sound and British Columbia
'teamship lines.
Marine underwriters have been advised
that the Monongahela River Consolidated
foal and Coke Company will not renew
, Present insurance on the combine’s
towboats when it expires. The insurance
‘o* *n for °e amounts to about $1,000,000.
'' I * s stated that the company will in
durate its own system of insurance.
It seems that the syndicate of Vera Cruz
it- chants has decided not to lake the
'King dry dock at Havana, owned by

THE MOUSING NEWS: MONDAY, NOVEMBER 13, 1891).
WEEKLY MARKET REVIEW,
Cotton Active nnd Excited—Bureau
Report Misconstrued.
The cotton market was exceptionally
active throughout the past week, and
price changes were many and violent. A
very strong tone ruled until Thursday
morning, by which time an advance of
about 35 points had been made. Later in
the same day sales to realize caused a
reaction of 12 to 15 points, and on Friday,
under very heavy selling, a break of fully
20 points occurred. Early on Saturday
prices further receded 5 or 6 points, but
a rally of 10 points followed, and the Anal
close is about 4 to 6 points higher; Jan
uary, 7.33 c-, March, 7.39 c.
The movement was quite light, although
showing a moderate increase toward the
end of the week; this was attributed to
much larger sales in the interior, buyers
paying very full prices. This appears to
have been pretty general, and is expected
to manifest Itself in a somewhat freer
movement for some little time. It does
not, however, imply any increase in crop
estimates, for every one knows a certain
amount of cotton is being held back; in
fact, if there should be no relative in
crease in receipts, the crop indicated would
hardly exceed 7,500,000 bales. After all. the
amount in sight for the week is 170,000
bales less than last year, and the total
to date over 800,000 bales behind.
The principal occasion for the sharp
flurry on Friday was the bureau report.
It was argued that the bureau having es
timated the last crop at 10,000,000, or 1,250,-
000 below the actual result, its figures of
9,500,000 this year must be interpreted cor
respondingly high, say not less, for in
stance, than 10,500,000 bales.
The absurdity of this reasoning is evi
dent. The bureau neither estimated the
last crop at 10,000,000, nor this one at 9.500,-
000. Last year it forecasted a large yield,
did not undertake to say how much, ex
cept that it could scarcely go below 10,-
000,000 bales, which, therefore, was given
as a minimum. This year, on the other
hand, it states that figuring upon the
“most complete and trustworthy informa
tion, the crop cannot exceed 9,500,000
bales.” This, therefore, is a maximum es
timate, and if conservatism has caused its
figures to be as far off as last year, the
crop will only be about 8.500 000 bales. What
6cems to be a fair construction to be
placed upon this report, which the bureau
affirms is one of the most careful ever is
sued, is that the crop promises to be some
where about 9.000,000 bales.
With consumption now going on at the
rate of over 11,000,000 bales of American
cotton per annum, and new mills con
stantly going up; with some uncertain,
possibly very large, proportion of old
stocks practically unavailable; with foreign
spinners only just beginning to suspect the
alarming predicament into which they
have been led by a delusive will-o’-the
wisp; why should not cotton advance a
cent or two more? Wm. T. Williams.
Visible Supply of Cotton.

The visible supply of cotton ’to Nov. 10,
as made up by cable and telegraph, is as
follows. Continental stocks, as well as
those for Great Britain and the afloat, are
this week's returns, and consequently all
European figures are brought down to
Thursday evening. But to make the total
the complete figures for Nov. 10, we add
the item of exports from the United
States, including in it the exports of Fri

Haven & Stoat’s Letter.
New York, Nov. 11.—Reviewing the cot
ton market for the past year, Haven &
Stout say: The past week has been one
of the most active that the speculative
cotton market has seen during the present
year. The widespread belief that the crop
will turn out an exceedingly moderate one
as to size, brought heavy buying orders
from all quarters and resulted on last
Thursday lit establishing the highest quo
tations that have yet been recorded for
the present crop. The government esti
mate as to the yield of lint per acre, which
was issued at noon on Friday, was an
tlclpated with much interest. The gen
eral expectation about it was that the In
dications would favor a very light yield
and that with the extremely large de
mnnd for spot com on and the firmness
with whkffi it is held by Southern plant
ers and eotton factors, the result would
he the establishment of materially higher
figures for both spots and options. Many
large lines had evidently been bought on
this theory, so that when the government
estimate was published, heavy felling car
ried the price back to about the same
level which prevailed at the beginning of
the week. The government report ls con
strued to indicate a total yield of 9,5 1 Z),<)00
baies. This Is below most conservative
estimates, and yci it is larger Uian a
great many observers of the situation
think the crop will finally turn out.
BANKER CLEWS’ VIEWS.
The Financial Oatlook a* Seen From
Wall Street.
New York, Nov. 11.-The stock market
continues in a somewhat waiting attitude.
Buying is held in check by money market
conditions. Until these become more fa
vorable any extensive bull movem-nt that
may be inaugurated ls likely to meet with
serious resistance. As for the future of
the money market, funds are likely to re
turn from the Interior more slowly and In
less amount than usual. Industrial and
commercial activily insure a good demand
for funds for some little time to com-.
Meanwhile, the treasury continues to ab
sorb money, adding to general strlngercy
from which the only relief in sight is Its
return from the Interior or the purchase
of bonds by [he government.
The elections had little efToct. Their re
sults, however, were eminently satisfacto
ry to those who believe sound money an I
commercial expansion necessary for the
country’s progress and pro perity. Of
course in the next national * lection, Mr.
McKinley and Mr. Bryan wl 1 again b- ri

quence of Tuesday's election--: but no rann
Individual has any misgivings about ihe
outcome. The administration hu* al-
