The gk-ek market today was moderately
active but weak almost all day. A determined
attack was made upon the list at tbe opening
by taarish room traders, and a marked im
fn-ession was made upon values, There was voiy
ittle support given the list, though there were
some buying orders which absorbed the offer
ings, but tbe market became weak and de
moralized, aud so remained until late in the
day. The attack again centered in Richmond
and (Vest Point stocks, and dissensious in the
Board of Directors, with reports that an injunc
tion would bo askisl for to prevent the puymeift
of a dividend ou preferred stock, and that the
bull pool in the latter had dumped Its stock to
day, were put forth its reasons ror the ease with
which it yielded to pressure. All tbe active list
were attacked, however, and coal stocks and
Pacific roads were especially weak. After the
selling movement ha l spent its force, there was
u partial recovery, though the improvement
amounted to fractions only, and did not ma
terially affect the result of the day's trading.
Some firmness was developed in the afternoon,
but the leaders showed little improvement, and
though there was no chango in the market after
that time, the close was dull aud barely steady,
but a shade better than bottom prices. Total

Green & Co.’s report on cottou futures says:
“Tne handling of cotton certificates to-day has
been quite tree, with the general tone of the
market upward, and a good undertone shown
throughout. A comparatively small run of re
ceipts furnished the principal incentive to buy
ers, and while the demand was largely local to
commence with, the latter portion of the day
brought in anew run of orders, apparently
from both the South and Europe. An advance of
9012 points was shown, w ith only a light set
back, and closed fairly well sustained. Cables
bring information that spinners stocks on the
Ist inst. were: Great Britain 191.000 bales, con
tinent 233,000, against 110,000 aud 106,(KJ0,
respectively, last year.”
