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.

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- WHEAT- ‘bpnlng. lilghst. Dwst Gloss.

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. _ - _ Lam son Bros. & Co. (Blfimarok ton* always been particular albouit ttoe quhJli'.'ies of his cookery.

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.
