New York. Jan. 18.—There was less
activity in the dry goods district to-day
than yesterday. The usual Tuesday
quietude was noticeable. Cotton goods
contiued dull in all grades. The buyers
were slower to take hold of staple goods
and prints than was to be expected un
der the circumstances. It is beyond
doubt that there is a tendency on the
part of buyer's to under-estimate the ef
fects of the Eastern strike, or r least
.thay do not believe that these effects
wili be speedy. In local jobbing stores
the spot trading w-as fairly active, al
though mail orders w r ere slow aud small.

STOCKS AND BONDS.
New- York, Jan. IS.—Prices were
slaughtered iu the afternoon trading on
the Stock Exchange to-day, especially
those properties, including local trac
tion lines, which were most benefited by
the market's buoyancy yesterday. Prices
opened with fractional appreciations in
sympathy with London which traded
moderately both ways but buying slight
ly more than they sold. Large opera
tors were not very active in the local
market until the late trading. There
appeared to be a general undertone of
strength in the early transactions but
the temper gradually changed and ru
mor mongers were not idle. Among other
efforts to depress the market there was
circulated an unfounded story that the
United States Minister to Spain had
sought the protection of the British em
bassy at Madrid. Realizations of profits
by large interests aided the bear raid,
uncovering stop loss orders and the mar
ket dosed at or near the lowest aad very
weak.
The Senate Finance Committee's ap
proval of the resolution declaring for the
payment of government bonds in either
gold or silver was used by traders as a
bear card. The resolution presented in
the House, in the form of an amend
ment, for the recognition of Cuban beili
gerancy was not known until near the
closing hour. In the general list the de
cline from the high point ranged from 1
to 2 points, but the net losses in most
«- cases were fractional.

spite the heavy liquidations in the stock
market. Issues which have been conspic

vibrate very violently. Total sales SO,-

GRAIN AND PROVISIONS.
C/hicago, Ills., Jan. 18.—For the third
day in succession wheat was influenced
almost entirely by Liverpool. The sharp
advance in that market as a result of
unfavorable Argentine and India news
caused an opening advance of %c. in
May, and that advance was also shown
at the close. A feature was the buying
of July by the bull clique brokers and
an advance of in that option. Corn
and oat* were dull and closed a shade
lower. Provisions made small advances
and had the best trade in a week.

Tarboro, N. C., Jan 18. —(Special.)—
Traboro is always itself, and that, too,
always in a very delightful way. Any
stranger ever within its gates will relate
this, and it seems that the cordiality
and the pleasant times are to be kept
up by the “Bachelor’s Cotilion Club.”
Truly the membership of the club be
speak its intention. Last Friday night
its initial dance and banquet was given
The affair was most delightful and bril
liant—for the town’s women are beauti
ful. The armory of the Edgecombe
Gourds was elaborately decorated for the
occasion in red and blue, and Norfolk’s
famous Barje’s band furnished the in
spiring music.
Many visitors were present from all
parts of the State, and the scene at
the height of the dance was one of
much beauty. At 1 o’clock, to the soft
strains of the band, the guests of the
club repaired to the banquet, which was
served in perfect taste.
Mrs. Farrar, Mrs. Pierre Cox and Mrs.
Alex. Fairley were charming as chap
orones.
Mr. Henry Clarke Bridgers is president
of the club; Mr. Henry Johnston, vice
president, and Mr. Henry Jenkins, sec
retary. Very probably much of the suc
cess of the occasion was due to this
wise choice of officers on the part of the
new organization.
The club is to give only four germane
a year, each to be a memorable affair,
and certainly, if equal in tone and ele
gance to its initial german, the club
may rest assured of the hearty enjoy
ment and pleasure of any stranger hap
pening upon its hospitality—within the
club doors.
