New York. Nov. 26.—The cotton mar
ket opened with a surprising show of
strength In view of the poor cables. On
the call there was very little cotton for
sale, and the demand from commission
houses forced prices up,rapidly. Later
a quick drop followed on' some rather
heavy selling for profits by pit traders,
but later a second up-turn occurred
that ran the list 13 points above Satur
day's dost*. •
Liverpool .was slightly disappointing this
morning nt the opening, the near months

New York. Nov. 26.—Marshall, Spader &
Co.: Morning reviews of the market are
for the most part devoted to explanations
of reasons for lack of speculative Interest,
rather than encouragement to operators
looking to an advance. Nearly all Influ
ences are discussed, namely: Increased
wage scale, prevailing high money rates,
continued extraordinary demand for crop
moving funds, and necessities of. railroads
for new capital. The etilurged interest In
mining speculation Is also the cause of some
