Cotton Market.
NEW TORK. Jan. 10 COTTON The
market opened steady at unchanged prices
to a decline of 1 point and for a time ruled
quiet, cables being disappointing. The
weather In the cotton belt was considered
favorable for an Increased movement and
selling was free until It became apparent
that Wall street parties were absorbing the
offering. A buying movement et In and
prices were soon 2c3 points up from the
opening basis. A firm undertone developed
toward noon on the disappointing volume
of receipts, estimated for the day at .O"0
bales, against 8,io last year. The fact
thnt the world s visible supply of cotton is
now ;o7.'"l bales less of all kinds than hell
last year led to considerable buying on the
Investment basis, as the absorption of cot
ton continues to show a record demand
from spinners In this country and Europe.

SEW YORK STOCKS AD BOXDS.
Persistent Selllns; of Reading Caases
( onfealon Attnlssn Stron.
NFW YORK, Jan. 10. There was evi
dence of some confusion of sentiment In
the movement of prices of stocks today.
The persistent liquidation In Reading had
an unsettling effect. The strength of Atch
ison waa In strong contrast. The purchase
of 20.ua shares of this stock within the
first few minutes of the trading lifted it
strongly and had a stimulating effect else
where. There was some show of positive
strength In New York Central and Penn
sylvania, on the strength of the Reading
deal having a tendency to harmonise the
whole railroad sltuatton. Elsewhere the
market was Inclined to be dull and fluc
tuations were narrow un'll the appearance
of the bank statement. The cash item was
a disappointment. In place of the pre
dicted increase of 89.0ta,iA) to 8U.0O0.on0 the
weeks gain amounted to only $4,740,100.
The only plausible explanation to account
for this discrepancy was that the heavy
flow of cash into Chicago the latter part
of the week had been arrested there and
not forwarded to New York, as had been
supposed. Sterling exchange was Inclined
to harden and discounts advanced In Lon
don. The market closed weak. The only
explanation of the movement In Atchison
was an unconfirmed rumor of a plan for a
combination of the Rock Island.
United States 2 and old 4s advanced 4
per cent and the new 4s. coupon, 4 per cent,
as compared with the closing call of last

CATTLE There were so few cattle hero
today that a test of the market wa not
made. For the week receipt have been a
little heavier than the week before, but
there 1 a decrease as compared with ths
aine week of la.t year. The receipt for
the ten day of thl week snow a de
crease of over 4.000 head a compared with
the time day of last year.
The market on cornfed steers was in
good shape most of the week, and until
Thursday the tendency of prices was up
ward. On Friday, however, buyers took
off the bulk of what they put on the first
part of the week, so that as compared
with the close of last week the market
1 strong to a dime higher. The bulk of
the cattle now coming lorward are selling
from 84.00 to $4.75, though a tunch occa
sionally ells around 85.00, and a finished
load will bring considerably more than
that. .
The cow market wa also active and
higher until Friday, when prices took a
drop amounting to 10&15o. A compared
with the close of last week, however, the
market may be quoted generally a dime
higher. The big bulk of the offerings all
the week consisted of cow tuff. but the
demand aeemed to be equal to the occasion
and all kinds met wun reauy asm Tceyv ,
on Friday. The better grades of cornfed 1
cows are now selling from $3.50 to 84 4t !
but It takes a pretty good bunch to bring
83 85 or better. The medium grade are
selling largely from 82 90 to $3.60. while the
r.n.n.r.n binds sell from $2.00 to $2 75.
Bulls, veal calve and stags have not
shown much change during the week. On
ome day they were easier to dispose of
than on other, but as a general thing
price are In about the same notche they
were a week ago. , , .
Receipts of stockers and feeder have
been extremely light all the week, and
while the demand was not large, It seemed
to be In excess of the supply, so that prices
have ruled higher all the week, but so few
have been sold that It la difficult to quote
a definite advance. As high as $4.25 has
been paid. Representative sales:

HOGS There was a liberal run of hog
here today for a Saturday, but the local
demand was In good shape, so that ths
market ruled fairly active and fully steady
with yesterday. The quality of the hog
was a little better today, so that the
market on pper makes a better appear
ance. There was not much change In the
market from start to finish, practically all
of the early arrivals being deposed of In
good season. The bulk or the sales went
from $6.36 to W-46. The better grades sold
largely at 46. though as high as $6.50 was
paid for a prime load. The butcher weight
old largely around So. 40, and the light stuff
from $6.35 down
The receipts for the week show a big
decrease both as compared with iat week
and also with the same week of last year.
In view of the light supply seller havs
been able to force prices up considerably.
Thursday proved to be the high day of the
week, when the average price showed an
advance over the close of the previous
week amounting to about lc On Friday,
however, there was a decline amounting to
fra 10c, and the week closed with a net
gain of about a dime. Representative

SHEEP There were several car of sheep
and lambs here this morning, bjt part of
them were bought to arrive. Those that
were 011 sal brought fully steady prices
and packers seemed to be anxious for the
better grades. As high as Jo Sj was pnld
for some prime lambs, which was pro
nouncjd a aood strona Drlce.
For the week receipts have been fully as
heavy a they were last week and '.here Is
a big increuse a compared with the same
week of last year. The first of this week
prices eased off a little, but the loss has
sii Deen regained r.na tne market is a
little nitrner than the close or last week.
Thers seems to be a good strong undertone
to the market for good stuff, but the half-
fat kinds ars. of course, more or less neg
lected.
Feeders have been In very light supply
all ths week so that although tne demand
has been of limited prtruortlons It has been
large enough to take everything offered at
good strong prices.

Knormoaa said Powerful Cosnklae,
Itrsllaln Knoriuoaa rroflla.
One of tho note worthy moves In the
financial world that U attracting a great
den I of attention, is the pooling of Inter
est by small invistors. A Bt. IajuIs firm,
the National Securities Tympany. Is ths
prime mover In the pln. This company
receives the motley nf thousands of small
investors, and. coniMulns them, form
gliJHntlo sums, which enables them to suc
cessfully triinsact enormous deals that py
h'iriclome protils lo the Individual member
of th pool. This Is another phase of the
Community of Interest Idea niiuie so popu
lar by J. rierpont Morgan, Ihe only differ
ence being that this company Is composed
of in unlimited number of small Investors,
while Mr. Morgans companies are com-pos-od
of a limited number of rich men.
The National is the lirat company organ
Ired on this new j.Iuii. but because of it
wonderful success It la but u question of
a short time until many more will inter
the held, it Is a well known fact that the
innn of money his thousands of opportuni
ties to make profitable Investments thut
never come to the man of small means. In
popular language, "it t:ikes money to make
money." Hy this successful plan of com
bination the small Investor with from fifty
lo a tew hundred dollars secures tho same
opportunities thst come to the man of
millions, and as u consequence rrallxea the
same enormous per cent of prollt on his In
vestment, however small It may be. it
can be surely said that a more marked
departure than this plan was never made
in tho world cf money and those who take
advantage of the i pportunllles offered by
mis company will lealise more on their
money In a week thun they would under
crilinary conditions in a year. The general
pian upon which the company is operated
does not materially illlter from that em
ployed by the national bunks. i he In
vestors of the company occupy Ihe same
position as Ihe stockholders of the bank.
Kach and every thirty days a dividend la
declared and each Investor receive n draft
for his profits during this time. The lnvet
ment Is amply secured and Investors run
no risks whatever. The entire capital of
Ihe company, One Hundred Thousand Dol
lars ttlim.Maj). stands between the investors
and loss. The majority of the mammoth
fortunes of this country were made hy
almost exactly the same methods as those
employed by the National Securities Com
puny. Combination is the keynote of pres
ent day success. The small Investor, by
piuclng his money with that oi hundreds
and even tho.. ...aa of other small In
vestors, obtain an the advantages of enor
mous capital und hl money earns as much,
dollar for dollar, us that of the millionaire
"Captains of lnuustrv," while small sum .
If Invested alune earn but 3 or 4 ner cent
ana are usually tied up for long periods of
lime, investments in the National Securi
ties Company pay more than this each
month and are sabject to withdrawal at ,
uny time. Upon investing the investor
receive a Ceitiucaie of Ueposlt, stating
on lis face that a sum equal to 6 per cent
a month Is guaranteed, puyable monthly,
and giving tne holder oi the ccrtliiicaie
the right to return the certificate ut any '
time he may choose and withdraw hi in
vestment in whole or In part Instantane
ously. This Is without question one of the
greatest opportunities fur safe and highly
profitable Investment in the entire financial
world. It la worthy the careful considera
tion of any man who desires to rapidly
accumulate a snug bank balance nnd yet
have his money Invested where It Is at all
times subject to Instantaneous withdrawal
and protected from loss by a company
whose financial standing and reliability U
beyond question. The National Securities
Company Is rapidly extending Its Held of
operations, and, to arouse additional Inter
est, has issued a booklet explaining lully
Its plan of operating and giving full in
formation In regard to everything an in
vestor would want to know. This booklet
Is sent free to all who write for It. Ad
