state planters are showing greater anxie

are so low. To market hero today re
ceived some support from local operators.
Llveipool is reported to have sold the
late months, it was a small scalping
market with the opposing factions more
disposed to await events than to ma
terially increase their obligation. We
feel bearish on the situation as long as
the crop movement continues at Its pres
ent magnitude. Stevens & Co.

STEVENS' COTTON LETTER.
By Special Wire to Lyon & James.
New York, Dec. 12.—Perhaps the most
significant feature today was the an
nouncement that on December 19 27,000
packages of cotton goods will be offered
at auction in this city. That undoubt
edly Indicates a poor state of trade
the dry goods world. It was something
of a shock to many in the cotton trade
to find that such a sale would be neces
sary. Last season when 17,000 packages
were offered at auction It was considered
something decidedly unfortunate, but the
sale to take place now Is considerably
larger and comes In what many believe
to be a big crop year—that Is a ye*-
which the yield is anywhere from 9.000.000
to 10.000,000 bales. Liverpool was a little
betto r at first, however, than some had
expected, and early In the session there
was an advance of l point. Later on this
was lost and the close was quiet at
decline for the dsy of 2 points, with
tales of 92,bales. New, .Orleans ex-

LAMSON BROS. GRAIN LETTER,
By Special Wire to Lyon & James.
Chicago, Dec. 12,-The traders were In
clined to bear the market at the start,
but met'with little success, as the mar
ket soon lapsed Into that holiday atti
tude being more suggestive of Christmas
week than two weeks ahead, and with a
dearth of effective nows. It is not sur
prising declines have been circumscribed,
Clearances from all Atlantic ports for
the day wero 223,000 bushels of wheat and
flour and wero disappointing in view of
tho export takings reported from the sea
board recently. In the absence of any
encouragement from the other side we
don’t loo kfor any material change be
fore New Years. It would not bo sur
prising, however, to see a brisk demand
spring up any day In view of. the light
supply In the United Kingdom and tho
continental demand fom feeders for ani
mal food. Belrbohm makes the Russian
shipments 403,000 quarters for the week,
being under reports ourrent two weeks
ago.
Corn was strong, principally on tho car
lots receipts which were light today, while
tho estimate is but seventy-elght cars fro
tomorrow. The market was quiet, how
ever, with no decided Improvement In
the speculative tone. Shippers continue
purchasers, and with limited offerings an
advance of % a cent from the low point
was experienced. .
Provisions have shown considerable
strength today. The opening was at an
advance of 10 to 15 cents all around. The
packers were free buyers, while receipts
show a sharp falling ofT. Those today
ruled firm at an advance of 5 to 10 cents
per 100. _ - _

GRAIN AND PROVISIONS.
Chicago, Dec. 12.—Wheat opened easy
this morning, fluctuated aimlessly during
most o tthe session between narrow boun
darles, but finally closed hard, firm and
higher, the final tone being ascribed
the action of corn. There was hardly
anything of Interest in the way of news
that affect id prices. May optned from
59% to 59%, sold between 59V4a% and 59%
to 59—, closing at the outside—*/4a*4 of a
cent higher than yesterday. Cas wheat
was quiet and steady.
Corn.—The receipts and the estimates
scared the com shorts today. The for
mer were 185 cars, the latter 75. The
anxiety did not take definite shape nor
result in unusual stragth until near the
Close, when prices responded actively to
the covering and advanced to the outside
point of the day, which was % of a cent
Maher than yesterday for May. May
com opened at 60, sold between 49% and
50%, closing at the latter. There was no
change In cash com.
Oats were dull, quiet and without par
ticular change until-just before the dost,
when the bulge in com worked to their
benefit In a moderate way. There was
nothing bearing on this grain In the gos
sip of tht day. May closed at 32%a%-%
of a cent higher than yesterday.
Provisions.—Some encouragement
holders of product was found in the
talk of an Immediate dropping off In the
arrivals of live hogs. The strength
derlvtd received further assistance .from
the market at the yards, which was some
higher, and later in the day, from the
advance In grain. The close was 17%
cents higher than yesterday for January

Thrift.
Thrift Is n vlrtuo. No pooplo can long
bo free who are not thrifty. It la true
that thrift sometimes pnsscs beyond vlr
tuo, degenerating Into tho vlco of greod.
Bccnuso thorn nro men who nro groody—
drunk with tlio Intoxication of wealth and
powor—wo BomottmeB aro told that wealth
and power nro criminal. Thoro nro some
that hold that thrift Is folly and personal
ownership n crime. In tho now Utopia
nil la to bo for all, nnd no ono can clnlm a
monopoly, not oven of hlmsnlf. Thoro
may bo worlds In which this shall ho truo.
It Is not truo In the world Into wliloh you
have been born. Nor enn It be. In tho
world we know tho freo man should have
a reservo of powor, and tills power Is rep
resented by money. If thrift over censes
to bo a virtue, It will bo nt n tlmo long in
tho future. Before that tlmo oames our
Anglo-Saxon rnoo will havo. passed away
ami our civilization will bo forgotten.—
