It was a dull market today, unsatisfactory alike to bulls and bears. A disappointing Liv erpool led to a lower opening but buy ing orders from New Orleans and abroad caused quick recovery to prices higher than yesterday's closings. To ward the close the market became very dull and on selling by room trad ers, there was a slight recession from the highest. March opened at 7.03, ad vanced to 7.12 and closed a 7.08 to 7.09 with the tone quiet and steady. The receipts toda" were fairly liberal. We would rather buy than sell cotton. But it may be that for. weeks to come the fluctuations may be small. We advise our friends to buy on weak spots and to take whatever profits they may be able to get out of the rallies. The prof its may be trifling, but that is better than seeing gains turn into losses while waiting for a decidedly higher market. : RIORDAN & CO. (By Southern Press.) New York, January 13. The Sun's cotton review says: Spot. cotton here was unchanged. Liverpool advanced l-32d on the spot, with sales of 12,000 bales. Futures- there opened' 1 to 2 points higher, but closed unchanged to 1 point up. Futures here declined 4 to 8 points, recovered the loss and ad vanced 1 to 2, but reacted and closed qjiiet but steady at a net advance of points, witn sales or 10,000 bales. Speculation today was dull and of a local, scalping nature. The fluctuations were confined within a narrow range. and at the close prices were practically unchanged as ' compared with last night's final figures. At . the opening prices reclined, owing to the increased semi-weekly movement. Liverpool re acted after a higher opening, and sell ing orders were received from that market. But the pressure to sell soon abated, and on a small local demand the loss was recovered and a slight ad vance ensued. The . receipts at the ports were smaller than had been ex pected, and the total for the week is now expected to fall about 10,000 bales below last week's movement.

Chicago, ! January 13.-Reports receiv ed from points west ' indicate that a heavy snow storm prevails, though the wind has been moderate and the weath er not very cold! Snow and rain fell In Kansas last night and heavy snow began In Colorado and Wyoming. Snow fell in South Dakota and In Minnesota. The flakes are falling south of the cen tral portion of the state and In Wis consin and Michigan also. The snow fall was heavy in the li Missouri valley and came eastward with great rapidity. At Carlyle, 111., six inches had fallen before midnight. St. Paul, Minneapolis Sioux City, Omaha, - StJ Joe, and t Louis were all in the path of the storm last night and either snew or rain fell heavily in each place p fore morning. At Duluth the winds were high "d Lake Superior was unsafe. Through out Nebraska, and portions of Montana, it was snowing all day yesterday and drifts have formed in th railroad cuts. On the range the cattle pan easily get to the grass under the snow. Reports, however, indicate a heavy fall In tem perature as nrobable and this will put a new and serious phase on the situa tion. The Nebraska grain men are jubilant over the weather, as they say there was never so much moisture in the state in this season as at present. Throughout Iowa heavji snows are also reported with some dejy in railroad tramc. I ! . The Chicago Markrts. Chicago, January 13.r-wheat prices apparently could not advance, and, as the only alternative was to decline, that course was, perforce adopted. The opening and first hour v as marked by considerable strenerth. bat the selline against calls, although Inly the lowest figure for those privileges was touched, was effective in producing a feeling of discouragement, and when a c break took place longs became i alarmed and sold without regard to j price. A fur ther decline of 9ic succeeded the firs; break, ana the close was practically at the inside figure. Cashi wheat was weak and 1 to lc lowef. I The dullness in speculation generally has no exception In the tpqrn pit, where business was in an inert and stagnant condition. Prices exhibited a firmer tone early, merely as a (matter of sym pathy with wheat, and not because any one was particularly anxious to biy Cash corn was c ltd c higher. Oats were as active 'ha any of the other grains, which doesi riot "mean that the volume of trade was j large. Local transactions were the oaly.onea noted. Prices were easy late jnj the session wjth those of wheat aiidi corn. Cash oats were firm and unchanged.

The speech of Senator Call,; of Florida, on Cuba today served as the medium for mak ing public? a letter giving" a graphic de scription of the Cabanas fortress at Havana, land the surroundings of the American citizens imprisoned there. The circumstances surrounding the let- ter attracted marked interest to It, as Mr.. Call said it came from a public man of high standing lh the' United States, who would shortly occupy a place In the legislative branch of the government. The letter dealt with the immediate present, and described a visit made by the writer and General Lee to Cabanas fortress onlv neve.n days ago viz., on the morning of De cern oer dotn. Access to the fortress was secured with difficulty, it being open to outsiders only on Wednesdays, and then after twenty-four hours' notice. xne writer said tnat he and General Lee Were escorted within the rvriarm where eight or ten prisoners, some of them Americans, were brought out. in a circle aoout yiem was ranged 100 Spanish soldiersa heavilv armed One of the prisoners was a man who had been j with Charles Govin at the time of his capture.

Sanguillv told a nathetta tttnrv t it, visitors as to the injustice of Ma trial and conviction, and begged that the United States investigate the ease with a view of establishing that he . was prosecuted for what, he might have done and not what he had done. Mr. Call again, said that this letter came from a prominent public man of the United States, a northern man and a republican, who had beeri"highly hon ored in this country, and would soon return to a high public place. , Alter reading other letters recitfoa the cruet methods employed in Spanish prisons, Mr. Call declared that these prisons were stained with the blood of Americas, citizens.
