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: NAVAL STORES. 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.

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.

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 ern spot market* were generally quiet. THE MORNING NEWS: SATURDAY, DECEMBER 21,1895. T. F. JOHNSON, BROKER. Cotton, Stocks. Grain and Provisions. The only house In Savannah with private wires to New York. New Orleans and Chi rac boom! 2 and 4 Provident Building. Telephone No 39. Spot prices here were reduced l-16c. Manchester was. dull and depressed, stocks at interior towns gained 28.UU0 bales for the week. Interior receipts for the week are estimated at 140.000, against 148,610 last week and 242.328 last year. It 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 season, also lends a strong color of prob ability to this view.” WEEKLY COTTON’ REPORTS.
