SAVANNAH MARKETS.
OFFICE OF THE MORNING NEWS, I
Savannah, Ga., Dec. 12, 4p. it. (
Cotton— The market was steadier with a fairly
active inquiry andjmore business doing. Factors
are quite firm in their views, more particularly
as the numerous estimates of the crop which
arc now being ventilated are all less than those
earlier in the season. The money market, how
ever, has become stringent, which may cause a
few weak holders to sell more freely than here
tofore. The total sales for the day were 2,7til
bales. On ’Change at the opening call at 10
a m . the market was reported quiet and un
changed, with sales of 750 bales. At the second
call at 1 P- rn. it was quiet, the sales being 671
bales. At the third and last call at 4p.m. it
closed quiet and unchanged, with further sales
of 1,387 bales. The following are the official
closing spot quotations of the Cotton Ex

The stock market was active by spells to-day,
was strong almost ail the way out. and in some
instances a marked advance occurred. The
news of the day was almost entirely of a favor
able nature. and bears covered freely. The de
cision of the Interstate Commission about
selling tickets to scalpers was looked upon as a
big bull card, and the buying of grangers was
noticeable, making them stronger than for
some tiaie past. Foreigners also showed a dis
position to purchase. There was an impression
that the dividend upon Gould stocks would be
as before, anil reports which apparently ema
nated from official sources were put out to that
effect, and later official action accelerated the
advance begun in the early morning. Coal
stocks were the great feature of tne day, all of
them being more active. Heavy earnings of
loading roads made bears somewhat nervous,
and they covered freely. The market closed
quiet but strong, generally at about best price/.

Manchester, Dec. 12.—The Guardian , in its
commercial article, says: **The demand is slow.
The progress yesterday did not reach the gen
eral average of Tuesday. Miscellaneous busi
ness is not lessened, but important transactions
are rare. The tone is quiet everywhere. Prices
are fairly supported, however. Buyers are not
afforded better terms than on Friday. India
merchants, occasionally encouraged by better
ment in excha ige, raise their offers, which re
sults in some business, which was previously
impracticable. Sales, however, arc lighter.
Manufacturers are confident and hopeful, de
spite the discouragement in the narrow nrargiu
between yarns and cloth. There is moderate
inquiry for export yarns. Forwarders of im
portance prove that impracticable offers are
being put under current rates. Home manu
facturers appear to have covered recently, en
tered orders, and are now only supplying press
ing wants. Orders for India shirtings in mod
erate quantities have been in market, chiefly
r or medium and good medium. Some have
been placed at previous prices. The difficulty
in securing an early delivery is often a hind
rance. Other India fabrics are steady, with a
moderate demand. Few orders for jaconets
are acceptable, except where manufacturers
urgently need fresh Business. China staples
are firm. They rule too high in the opinion of
merchants. There is a better demand for print
ing and other finishing cloths. Sales are rarely
important. Heavy goods are quiet, with a
steady demand. There is a slightly upward
tendency where production is well under con
tract.

Hubbard. Price & Co.'s cotton circular says:
“The strength of foreign markets and the nar
rowness of speculation here have been the prin
cipal features attending upon to-day's opera
tions. Cot ton receipts at the ports foot up a
fairly good total, and upon the announcement
from New Orleans of a somewhat heavier
movement than was expected, a determined at
tempt to break prices was made by the bears,
out they met with unexpected resistance from
a somewhat formidable quarter in large, buying
of January, as a result of which the premium
between this month and more distant positions
was somewhat narrowed, and the market closed
with a fairly strong undertone, and recovered
three or four points from the lowest prices of
the day. The preference of spinners tor Texas
cotton this season was recognized in the revision
of spot quotations here that widened the dif
ference lietween Gulf and upland cotton Vic.' 1
