THE MACON TELEGRAPH: SATTJDAY MORNING, DECEMBER 1, 1894.
THE WORLD OF TRADE.
Reports by Wire From the
Great Markets.
New York. Nov. 20.—The published
statement of President Havemeyer of the
American Sugar Refining Company,
nounclng that, owing to the lack of
ders, the refineries would jo closed down,
led to a grand rush to sell the certlfl
cates at the opening of business today
An Impression also nrevaUed that the dl
rectors will cut the January dividend at
their meeting early next week, and this
aocelerate/l the downward movement,
There was a tremendous crow dof brokers
around the sugar post at the opening
and nearly every one of them appeared
to have a selling order.. At the sound
of the gong fully 6.009 shares were of^
feral down to 81, against SO 3 .* at the close
on Wednesday last Further sales de
pressed the price to 83%. after which, un.
dor purchases to cover shdrt contracts,
a recoverey to 83%a% ensued. In some
quarters there was a disposition to criti
cise President Havemeyer, and It was
stated that his action at this time was
due mainly to a deslro to influence con
gress and head off the movement to place
sugar on the free list. Independent re
finers, however, assert that the business
has been anything but profitable of late
aaid that Havemeyer was justified gy the
trade conditions In closing iip the refin
eries. Distillers was another weak spot
in the early trading, and on the announce.
' of the proposed reorganization the
piHce dropped from 9 to 7%. Chicago Gas
was next taken in hand, and under pres
sure of long stock, • fell 2 points to 69%.
Tobacco broke 5 points to 90 and later
rallied to 90%a%. The heaviness of the
industrial group was duo In a great meas
ure to a rumor that there had been a
defalcation in one of the trusts. The
American Tobacco Company was said to
have been the sufferer, but this was of
ficially denied. It Is intimated that tliero
his been a defalcation, but the securities
of the concern Involved are not dealt
in afc^he Stock Exchange. The railway
list was weak at the start, but rallied %
to % per cent • -Later the selling 6f the
Grangers was resumed on a large scale.
The October statement of tho Chicago,
Burlington and Quincy was clnsldered fa
vorable at first, but when analysed it was
discovered that the road bad. geen opor-
ated for 49.28 per cent, and this created
a more bearish feeling. The selling which
followed the publication of the statement
carried Chicago, Burlingtin and Quincy
down 1%, st Paul % to 57%; Northwest
% to 97, Rock Island % t9 60% and St.
Paul and Omaha % to 32. Now Jersey
Central was heavy and fell about 2 points
to 92%; Manhattan sold down 1% to 104%;
Western Union 1% to 86%; Southern rail
way, preferred, 1% to 36%; Pan Handle,
preferred, 3% to 42%; Oregon Impr • - •;
2 to 10% and Toledo, Ann Arbor and
Northern Michigan 1% to 2%. The weak
ness of tho last named was duo to the
claim that the road would be reorganized
entirely In the interest of the bondhold
er. Tho sterling exchange market con
tinues strong, with rates dangerously near
the gold exporting point. It is said that
some of tho shippers expect to forward
gold next week. Money was more active,
however, and this may prevent shipments
of the yellow metal, notwithstanding the
present predictions. Stocks closed steady
at net declines from % to 2%. Tobacco
lost 4%, Lake Shore gained %f. Total sales
were 2G2.214 shares, of which 123,700 were
American Sugar.
The bond market was weak. Sales of
listed stocks aggregated 125,000 shares; un
listed. 37,000 shares.
Treasury balances: Coin, 8112,239,000;
Currency, 201,819,000.

STEVENS’ COTTON LETTER.
By Special Wire to Lyon & James.
New York, Nov. 30.—The bears had
their inning today. They kicked too many
goals for the bulls. Liverpool was lower
and dull; receipts at the ports and Inte
rior towns were large; Southern spot
prices gave way; Now Orleans dropped 16
to 18 points; there was more talk of 3,00,-
000 gales as the Texas crop estimate for
this year; Manchester was depressed and
a good many longs here and at the South
let go; Liverpool dropped 4 to 4% points,
with sales of only 7,000 bales and a de
cline of l-32d, closing quiet. Spot prices
declined % of a cent at New York, Sa
vannah, Norfolk and Baltimore; % to 3-16
of a cent lower at Augusta and 1-16 at
Memphis. . Receipts estimate dat 80,000
bales, including various, against 68.4S7 last
week and 41,142 last year. Total for the
week, about 360,000 bales, against 337,319
last week and 292,894 for the same week
last year. New Orleans’ receipts esti
mated at 8,000 to 9,000 tomorrow. The
South offered cotton more freely. Tho
bulls contend that the crop movement is
so large that it cannot keep up at this
rate much longer, but they havo been
saying this for many weeks and there
are those who look for a further de
cline, due to selling by disgusted longs.
New York future prices declined 16 points
and ©tiled very close to the lowest point
of .the day, barely Bteady, -with sales of
237, p i00 bales. At the decline there was
new buying. Stevens & Co.

LAMSON BROS. GRAIN LETTER.
By Special Wire to Lyon & James.
Chicago, Nov. 30.—In wheat the opening
was active and regardless of liberal offer
ings advance. Cables were e:icourae*ng
anl displayed an Improved ton*. The re
ceipts In the Ncrthwo.it were lea* than
hist year, and above all .the caah demand
kec-pn atrong. The action of the market
was sharp, a libera! amount of bear neiv,
was current and many local bulla sold
out their lines, being afraid of 1L Ac« or i-
Ing to BeerbvUm. exports of wheat from
Russia from \ugust 1 to November 16
are 3,573,<*X) bushels, the largest on rec
ord, exceeding 1891 by 16.00) bushels. There
is one consolation the bulls can contem
plate regarding this statement—the stuff
h» shipped and doubtless consumed. Re
ports were current regarding the Argen
tine crop, on© saying it was 16,000,000
bushels larger than last year, while oth
ers have it 30 to 35 per cent. less. Th©
seaboard reports buying by foreigners, al
though but little was worked for export.
Corn was strong early and advanced
of a cent on good buying for outside
account and sympathy with wheat. Lo
cal receipts exceeded expectations. The
number of cara of contract grade, how
ever, ran small. Of the 818 cars received
today but thirty-six graded. It has been
an active market throughout. Consider
able reulizlng took rlaco at the advance,
however. One noted house was credited
with letting go 300,000 bushels.
The market on hogs was firm, opening
at a slight advance, with good buying by
pack* i'm. ll*n;s at tlx- yards continue to
show a falling off and this has proved a
buoyant feature to futures. 8he hitter
part of tho session an easier feeling bs-
aamie apparent and" tho early gain was
lost entirely. The market In hogs at tho
yards ruled steady to firm.
Lamson Bros. & Co.
GRAIN AND PROVISIONS.
Chicago, Nov. 30.—Until’the call price
was encountered wheat did not meet with
enough selling to utay its rising propen
sities today, but the willingness of hold
ers of thoso privileges to accept a meagre
fraction as sufficient return on their In
vestment, checked the advance most ef
fectually. There was really but one bear
argument heard And that was tho weath
er. he bull points all came from abroad
and wore various; May wheat opened
from 59% to G0& sold between 59% and
60%, closing at C0%-% a cent higher than
Wednesday. Cosh wheat was %a% of a
cent higher than Wednesday. Buyers
were scarce.
he ready manner with which holders
and early buyers took their profits in
corn carried prices off from the high
point of tho days session. The bulls have
not' the stength of their convictions in
this marke tand eare easily forced from
tholr position. The wet weather was a
Tfavorablo Influence in corn today. The
Tstrcngth In wheat was us important as
anything else in causing tho early ad
vance. May opened at 49%. sold between
49% and 49, dosing at 43a%-% of a cent
hitter. than Wednesday. In the cash
market old corn was easy and new
steady to a shade better.
Oats wero in touch with their surround
ings, although there was but a light
trade and prices did not move geyond a
narrow llmt. May oats closed % of a
cent hlglier than on Wednesday. The
feeling In tho cash market was firm, sales
averaging %a% a cent higher than on
Wednesday.
Provisions.^—Higher prices were report
ed in product during the early hours of
today’s market, but moat of the gain (had
disappeaed before the session was over.
Tho live hog market showed an improve-
ment and the effect added to its prod
ucts. Estimates of tho stocks of pork,
lard and riba were larger than they wero
hitherto generally believed to bo. Selling
on these predictions gave an easier tono
to the later trade 4 . Closing prices wore
2% cents higher than Wednesday for Jan
uary pork, unchanged for January lard
and a shado higher for January ribs.

A FAMILIAR CRY.
When the day is gone, and tho stars come oat,
and the barber's shop is full,
When low and clear you frequently hear the
faint "D0as tho rasor pullf'
There comes with a rush the man who is late,
no matter how late it be,
Who opens the door to look in and roar, "How
many ahead of mo?"
He sees a patient In every ohalr, and nil
around the room
Where vsr a man can sit or stand, In sUunce
Ilka the tomb,
Tho bristly faces and tousled heads are count
ing the “nextrt" that b«.
But thla tardy elf only thinks of himself— 1 "How
many alioad of met"
From Hhop to shop, from door to door he makes
hia anxious round.
He never will rest from his eogor quest while
an open place is found.
Bearded and restless the same old crowd In ev
ery room ho'll nee,
But ho rings the chlmo ou the oamoold rhyme
—"How many ahead of me?"
—Philadelphia Pries. I
Ills Criticism.
Professional art critics are by no moans
tho only pooplo whose opinions of pictures
are worth hearing, ai many an artist has
found out. Michael Herllby had his little
shop Insured In a popular oompnny, and
tho agent presented him with a highly col
ored lithograph representing tho burning
of a block of building*.
Mr. Herllby surveyed the ploture for
some moments, muttering to himself the
while. At Inst ho turned a dissatisfied
faee upon the agent.
“It’s inolghty purty,” ho said, "but It’s
rnesilf doesn't call it ooraplate, sorr, not
by anny manes."
"Indeed," said the agent. "What li
wanting, Mr. Hcrllhy?"
"There’s the buildln's all rolght," said
Michael, "an tlioro'ff tho folro lnglncw, an
tho ladders, on tho horses, an tho ebmokg
an cinders. Thoro’s tno payple runnin,
an the folramon clhubiu oop an doon,
but," said Mr. Horllhy, turning his haok
on tho painted conflagration and confront
ing tho infitimnco agent with an expression
of strong discontent, "wholver in the

goin on, an not a bit av a dog annywhere
to l>o sane on tho sthrato, sorr? Who's the
man 't painted that plcthur, O’ld lolko t'

scornful. "He's got a few things to l’uru

Ths Newspaper Phonograph.
A writer in Horlbner's Magazine preph*
esiee the displacement of the newspaper
by the phonograph. Bays the writes:
"The voices of the whole world will be
gathered up In the celluloid rolls, which
the post will bring, morning by morning,
to the subscribing bearers. Valets and la
dle*' maids will soon loarn how to put
them In place, tho axle of tho cylinder
upon the two supports of the motor, and
will carry them to the master or mistress
at the hour of awakening. Lying soft and
warm upon their pillow, thoy may hear it
all, as if In a dream—foreign telegrams,
financial news, humorous articles, the
news of the day."
