Spot prices were reduced 1*16 of a cent
at New York, Mobile and St. Louis. New
Orleans and Norfolk were easy and un
changed. New Orleans declined 5 points
for futures. Mississippi sent offers of
spot cotton H of a cent lower than yes
terday. Other sections of the South were
offering more freely. Houston received
8.704. against 5,464; Augusta. 1,117, against
894; Memphis. 3.392. against 3,770; St. Louis,
2.164, against 1,988. Spot cotton trade in
this county was light. Interior semi-
weekly receipts reported were 127.000
bales, against 98.000 in 1891. For the
whoe week last year the interior receipts
were only 166.6:5. Manchester private ca
bles were gloomy. Dispatches from
Georgia state that the planters are sel
ling very freely. Mississippi telegrams
state planters are showing greater anxie
ty to sell. In spite of the fact that prices
are so low. Te market here today re
ceived r/>me support from local operators.
Liverpool 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.
My Special Wire to Lyon 6b 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 thla city. That undoubt
edly indicates a poor state of trade in
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 considers
something decidedly unfortunate, but the
sale to take place now Is considerably
larger and comes In what many believe
to u big crop year-that Is a ye-*- in
which the yield Is anywhere from 9,000,000
to 10,009,005 tales. Liverpool was a little
bette r at first, however, thin pome had
expected, and early In the session there
was an advance of 1 point. Later on this
was lost and the close was quiet at a
decline for the day of 2 points, with
•alee of 92,500 bales. New Orleans ex-
SUN’3 COTTON REVIEW.
New' York, Dec. 12.—The Sun’s cotton
review will say:
Cotton advanced 1 to 2 points, lost this
and declined 2 to 3 points, recovtred this
and In some cases advanced 1 point, lost
this and declined 1 to 2 points, closing
quiet with sales of 92,500 bales. New Or
leans declined 5 points on March. New
Orleans and Norfolk wtre weak at un
changed prices, Liverpool was hardening
on the spot but showed no quotable
changes; Riles 10,000 bales.
Futures advanced 1 point, but lost this
and clostd %al point lower and quiet.
In Manchester yarns were dull, cloths
quiet. New Orleans’ receipts tomorrow
were estimated at 8,000 to 10,000, against
14.463 on the same day last week and
12,188 last ytar.
Port receipts today, 65.886, against 46.207
this day last wee kand 43,088 last year.
Thus far this week, 222.780, against 228770
and Houston received today 14,260 and
shipped 23.846.
A big sale of cotton goods is announced
for the 19th Instant, when 25,000 packages
will be offered at auction.
Augusta received today 1,147, against
1,176 this day last wtek ancT 894 last year;
Memphis. 3,392, against 3.326 this day last
week and 3,779 last year; Bt. Louis, 2,164.
against 1.968 this day last week and 6,464
last year. Houston's receipts tomorrow
are estimated at 8,000 to 9.000, against
7,679 last year. Manchester private cables
report the condition of trade poor. Mo.
bile and St. Louis declined 1-16 of a cent
and Charleston *g of a cent. New Or
leans sold 4,500 Dales nnd Memphis 2,750
biles. Exports from the ports, 7,576 to
Great Britain and 14,313 to the continent.
Prlvatt Manchester cables were less fa-
orable. The semi-weekly Interior re
ceipts were 127,000 bales, against 99.009 last
year and 98,000 In 1891.
The New York warehouse stock g.hows
a little furthtr Increase. It Is now 80,000
bales, against 156,000, 256,000 and 47,000 for
the previous four years.
The crop movement continues large,
the South Is weak and a large sale of
cotton goods at auction was announced
for the 19th Instant. The dtcllne was
slight, however, as there was some de
mand to cover, and the New Orleans re
ceipts tomorrow will be comparatively
small.
LIVERPOOL.
Liverpool, December 12.—Spot oottoo market
demand fair, with prices steady. American
middlings 3 3*32. Sales 10,000 bales, of which
1000 were for speculation and export, and

LAMSON BROS. GRAIN LETTER.
By Special Wire to Lyon & Jaimes.
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 news. It Is not sur
prising declines have been circumscribed.
Clearances from all Atlantic ports for
the day were, 226.000 bushels of wheat and
flour and were disappointing In view of
the 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 be sur
prising, however, to see a brisk demand
spring up any day In view of the light
supply in the United Kingdom and the
continental demand fom feeders for ani
mal food. Betrbohm makes the Russian
shipments 403.000 quarters for the week,
being undef reports aurrent two weeks
•go.
Corn was strong, principally on the cAr
lots receipts which were light today, while
the estimate Is but seventy-eight cars fro
tomorrow. The market was quiet, how
ever, with no decided Improvement In
the speculative tone. Shippers continue
purohaaers, and with limited offerings an
advance of Ha cent from the low point
was experienced.
Provisions have shown considerable
strength today. The opening was at an
advance of 10 to )S cents all around. The
packers were free buyers, while receipts
show a sharp falling off. Those today
ruled firm at an advance of 5 to 10 cents
per lw.

GRAIN AND PROVISIONS.
Chicago, Dec. 12.—Wheat opened easy
this morning, fluctuated aimlessly during
most o fthe session between narrow boun
daries, but finally closed hard, firm and
higher, the final tone being ascribed to
the action of corn. There was hardly
anything of interest In the way of news
that affected prices. May optned from
59% to 59%. sold between 59Y«aH and 5944
to 59—, closing at the outside— 1 %a% of a
cent higher than yesterday. Cas wheat
was quiet and steady.
Corn.—The receipts and the estimates
scared the corn shorts today. The for
mer were 1® oars, the latter 75. The
anxiety did not take definite shape nor
result In unusual strngth 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
higher than yesterday tor May. May
corn opened at 50, sold between 4944 and
50*4, closing at the latter. There was no
change In cash corn.
Oats were dull, quiet and without par
ticular cha'nge 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 nt 32%a%~%
of a cent higher than yesterday.
Provisions.—Rome encouragement to
holders of product was found in the
talk of an Immediate dropping off In the
arrivals of live hogs. The strength so
fierivtd 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*4
cents higher than yesterday for Jinuary
pork and 7% cents higher each for Jan
uary lard and Jausry riba

Thrift.
Thrift Is a virtue. No people can long
bo freo who are not thrifty. It Is true
that thrift sometimes pusses beyond vir
tue, degunoratlng Into tho vico of greed.
Becnuso thoro nro men who nro greedy-
drunk with tho Intoxication of wealth and
power—wo snmotlmcs are told that woalth
mul power nro criminal. There are some
that hold thnt thrift Is folly and personal
.ownership n crime. In tho now Utopln
all Is to bo for nil, nnd no one can claim a
monopoly, not oven of himself. Thoro
may bo worlds in which this shall bo truo.
It 1s not truo In tlio world Into which you
have been born. Nor can It bo. In tlio
world we know tbo free man should hnve
a reservo of power, and this power Is rep
resented by money. If thrift ever ceases
to ho a virtue, It will bo at n time long In
tlio future. Before that tlino comes our
Aiiglu-Soxun rucu will litivu paused awuy
nml our civilization will bo forgotten.—

bail been sent In the year A. D. 1—that Is
