Yesterday's market was a very dull one, very nar row and very uninteresting affair. It was a case of suspended animation, all along. Recent records in small pro portions were broken.

The stock mar ket as a whole did not seem to respond in as buoyant fashion as might have been imagined to the great advance in the Northern Pacific, and Great North ern preferred shares, while the rally in prices which set in Thursday after noon, was continued in our stock in the London market before the begin ning of business here. The London, Berlin and Paris markets were as re gards their, own stocks inclined to heaviness, and in London the down ward movement in Kaffir securities which has for some time lieen in prog ress was carried on rather actively. On our own exchange opening prices were generally at an advance, but soon suc cumbed under liquidation, and . the market for a time was. dispite the large buying of Great Northern and Northern Pacific almost weak. " As, however, theorise in Northern Pacific and Great Northern proceeded the room trading speculators began to cover their commitments for the fall, and purchases of this sort were in evi dence throughout the day, although they were by no means urgently con ducted. Reading stocks was rather an especial feature of strength, although there was no news received bearing lone' way or the other upon the coal strike. Atchison .. ..

It was a small market, but what there was of It was for a time plainly weak, for Liverpool was disappointing, receipts were large and tired bulls were again liquidating goth in this country and across the water. Talk to the effect that Mr. Jor dan was consulting with people in Wall Street, about underwriting some mil lions of bales had no effect. People simply laugh at the- idea of such a scheme. But they do not laugh at the reports of a better spot demand at the South, nor the rather significant buying by spot houses, nor the change of fruit by some operators recently bearish who have now taken the oppo site tack solely because of a greater disposition on the part of the spinners to buy. Then, too, although the crop movement is at present large, some believe that in a short time the sta tistics will begin to look decidedly more bullish. Yesterday, however, what with bad wires, and an indispo sition to trade heavily on the eve of a holiday, the trading was not at all heavy. The only note worthy event was an apparently better tone in the after noon, di'.e to more cheerful spot news from the South. High Low Close WHEAT Sept .... 83 82 83V8 July S4 84 84 May ....

A dispatch from Wilmington, savs the east shore of Wrightsville beach presented an interesting sight Tuesday afternoon in the vicinity of Lumina. This portion of the beach was strewn with wreckage of the-old hunk that has been ashore on Lumina since the civil war. This bulk represent all that re mains of the ship that plied between Wilmington and West Indies Islands. The storm of Thursday night tore into the wreck and tossed a great amount of debris upon the shore. Sopowerful was the raging sea that the old iron safe aboard the ship was washed up oh the beach and formed the most in teresting object for the sighteers Wed nesday. A quantity of old . iron pipe and part of the vessel's shaft were also washed ashore, as well as odd bits of hardware, including home-made nails. One of the most interesting curios picked up was an old and very rusty carving knife. The safe is a very heavy one and has corroded very badly. It is a com bination safe, thought it was supposed that the safe aboard was of the old fashioned lock and key type. The safe was broken into but contained nothing save a very small portion of a gold chain. The safe had evidently been opened by the officers when it was seen that the ship could not be saved. Only a part of the old hulk was torn apart and washed ashore as the greatest por- ForCoughs and Colds There is a remedy over sixty years old Ayer's Cherry Pectoral.

CALL CONTRACT DEPARTMENT 199 Southern Bell Telegraph &, Telephone Company Concerning the Method After years of experiment, a method of teaching the art of playing the piano has been devised, by which any person can learn to play and at the same time get a fundamental knowledge of the theory of music. By special arrangement The News will give to each of its readers the full course, consisting of twelve object lesson, with charts; The course, as it will be published in The News, will treat each key and its relatiye minor key in one lesson, making twelve les sons in all, comprising all the different scales. The charts will show a complete series of chords in all keys, and the method of using them is so simple and clear that the thorough learning of each lesson will, when, the series is ended, give the student a good knowledge of the instrument. The new method is simple and places the art of -piano play ing in everybody's hands. It has the unqualified indorsements of noted musicians and teachers who have examined it, and even the world-renown pianist, Josef Hofmann, ha3 given it. his approval. Of course patience and practice are the first requisites, and with these every reader of The News who can obtain the use of a piano will . be able to make splendid progress under the method explained by the charts and accompanying text. These lessons will also be of value to teachers as well as students, jj DON'T FAIL TO GET hz fkt less on -.- IN run SATURDAY, FEB. 17th.
