New York, Jan. 4. Liverpool this
morning was 3 to 4 poln.ts lower and
easier, our people telling us that
the netvs from this side continued
disappointing. Here the day's" do
ings may be briefly summed up .again
as the result of heavy receipts both
for the day and In prospect which
have anecteq holders and brought
Into play an immense quantity of
stop orders resulting In a loss of near
ly 20 to 22 points from Thursday's
closing. We expected better things
with the new year but In the face of
all anticipations the movement con
tinues stupendously large and the
natural pressure Is too great to be re
sisted. It Is little use arguing, everything
aepenas entirely upon the dally fao
n. . m
tors. . We bad believed even
large crop many expect,
ar
falling off. Wbi
CHEAPhR THAN COTTON
It is saying a great deal to assert that wool is cheap
er than cotton. Bnt a Receiver's sale knows no laws
nor does it regard any tariff.
All wool Suits, heavy Overcoats, felt Hats, warm Underwear and Furnishings, Bilk arid
Satin, at tho McDowell Clothing Co's make up in.a measure for the disgraceful price of cot
ton, The court has ordered one of the finest stocks of Clothing ever selected in the State,
to be cl(ed out at and below cost Come and select while the shelves are full and before
the cest things am picked over.
