Savannah, Dec. JO.—The general whole
markets were fairly active during the
■ _-t week. Naval stores were In strong
!.,mand, except for pale grades of rosin,
j.rices advanced in spirits turpentine and
;.,w grade rosins. The cotton market was
t i ill and uninteresting. The continued de
gression in the speculative markets, and
.. declines in futures caused the local
market to weaken in tone and drop in
values. The security market was rather
q jet, the war scare having kept Inves
•' rs out of the market. The following re
sume of the local and telegraphic markets
will show the tone and the quotations at
the close to-day:

Spirits Turpentine—The week opened
with an advance of %c Saturday, and the
lemand continued firm at 25%c up to
Thursday, when there was another ad
vance to 35%c, which remained the price
p to the close to-day. All of the offerings
v..-re generally taken at the official price,
u the close to-day there was a further
advance, ihe buyers bidding 26c for the
i eceipts. There were no sales reported
at the close.
Rosin—The position of rosin remained
a l, the same as the previous four
w. ks, A decline of 20c was noted In wa
t. r white and window glass early In the
v, k, but the lower prices did not effect
the market. There was no demand for
the pales, lower grades were strong, and
< \ oral sold at slightly advanced prices.
The market closed with the conditions
unchanged.

COTTON.
Another dull and u ninterestlng week
characterized the spot market. There was
lmt little business done. The long looked
•or advance did not come, but Instead, tho
controlling became depressed, notwith
standing the buying of stops at Liverpool,
the small port receipts, and the increased
talk of a short crop. The local market
weakened along with futures and on Thurs
day the prices declined l-16c In all grades.
Home sales of about 1,000 bales, had been
made at the decline, on Wednesday. To
-0 , the influence of the panic in tho New
Y rk stock exchange, causing a decline in
futures, of 14 to 16 points early In the day,
caused a decline In the local spot market.
At the opening the market was quiet and
<-a y and unchanged. At the midday call,

New York, Dec. 20.—Riordan & Cos. say
of cotton to-day: "This was a field day
in the cotton market. The decline was
sharp The liquidation was enormous,
and it would be difficult to exaggerate the
uneasv feekng that prevailed during a
Dortion of the day. March opened at
8.14 c rallied to 8.17 c, declined to 8.04 c and
closed at B.llc, with the tone very steady.
The terrible drop in the stock market,
with something very like a panic, had
a most depressing effect upon holders of
cotton The bears are relying upon a great
deal of cotton now held in the south be
ing forced upon the market by the antic
ipated tightness of money. At the close
to-day it looked much as if the worst was
over, but the feeling is still one of great
uneasiness, and it is impossible to-night
to forecast the course of prices to-mor
row The light movement, especially at
the interior towns, and the heavy liqui
dation that has taken place, should
make an upward reaction easy and natur
al but mightier influences than these
are at work, and at the moment little
heed is paid to the movement.”
Mclntyre & Wardwell's cotton letter
by private wire to T. F. Johnson, broker,
Provident building:
“New Y’ork. Dec. 29.—The panic in Wall
street and London, a number of failures
on the New Y’ork Stock Exchange, long
liquidation and bear raiding, which
caught a good many stop orders, caused
a decline tn cotton here to-day of 14 to 15
I 1 Kiims. but later on there was a rally due
to liquidation by short*, and good buy
ing bv strong interests, and tlie close
here was very steady, at a net decline of
7 to 9 points. Cotton has stood better
than any other commodity since the Ven
ezuelan excitement began, and It has cer
tainly shown very significant steadiness,
as compared with railroad stocks. The
sales here to-day were 353.899 bales Liv
erpool. contrary to exiiectatlons, advanc
ed 24 to S points at first, and though
there was a reaction, it closed firm r.t a
net di-Wlne of ' 4>-l |>olnt for day Its Simla
sales were lO.IMI hale* at a decline of '-22.
New Orleans doelimd 12 to II points then
recovered a portion of this loss. Kuuth

Is believed that tn the event of the in
ternational political situation becoming
more serious, the export trade will be
greatly augmented. The steadiness in
Liverpool under existing circumstances,
seems to encourage this belief, while the
fact that the exports thus far this season
are far below those the same time last

ability to this view.”
