New York, Dec. 31.—Riordan & Cos. say
of cotton to-day: “The great and unex
pected strength of Liverpool to-day, show
ing an advance of nearly 7-64, put a
different aspect upon our market and
disclosed the existence of a very large
short interest. The rush to cover caused
prices to leap upward. March, which
opened at B.oßc, advanced to 8.24. A lull
in the demand caused a rapid reaction,
March declining to 8.16 c, did not last long,
and with a renewed demand, there was a
good rally, March closing at 8.214/8.22c,
with the tone steady. As Liverpool has
started the advance we must iook to
Liverpool to sustain it. The January re
ceipts will probably be on a far more
liberal scale than we had anticipated, and
it remains to be seen whether they will
not chill the new born enthusiasm.
Should the enthusiasm continue unabat
ed, of course there could be no declines,
but we do not feel confident.”
Mclntyre & Wardwell's cotton letter by
private wire to T. F. Johnson, broker,
Provident building:
"New York, Dec. 31.—The cotton mar
ket derived Us strength from the firm
ness of the spot, markets, both here and
abroad. Manchester trade with India has
greatly improved of late, owing to the
firmness of the silver rupee. Liverpool
.was active and decidedly higher under ihe
stimulus of Manchester’s improvement.
Interior receipts were light and are not
likely to be over 65,000 bales this week.
A bond issue is believed to have been prac
tb oily decided upon, and there were ru
mors that we should shortly import gold
from Europe. There was no pressure to
• 11. spot prices here and at the south

points and closed steady. Liverpool ad
vanced 7 to 8% points and closed firm,
boot sales there were 12,'MK) bales, at an
'•< Lance of l-32d. New Orleans advanced
b* points, and then reacted slightly. Ten
-see news Is that cotton planters are
;< unusually prosperous circumstances,
" yy owe very little, and many of them

New York, Dec. 31.—Wall street was in
a waiting mood to-day and the dealings

bonds $142,000. Notwithstanding the du,l
ness the undertone of the market was
stronger than for a week past an/l con
siderable business was done for the lead

due to the general impression that the
treasury department had adopted ai! the
necessary arrangement foy placing a.big
block of four per cent, bonds with New
York bankers. All the Indications fav
ored the idea that the issue will be $ 00,-
000 000; the purchasing syndicate to re
ceive an option for $100,000,000 additional,
the leading banks were sounded as to
their position in the matter, the amount
of gold they could furnish, etc., etc.; the
scramble for gold in the open market
continued in isolated cases as hign as
1 per cent., but 1 per cent, was paid hy
intending purchasers of the bonds. In
fact the belief .in a bond issue was so
strong that it outweighed the lower ca
bles for the day and the flurry in the
money market and the trend of prices
for stocks, except for a slight hesitancy
at the opening, was upward throughout.
The gain in prices ranged from % to 2%
per cent and was most pronounced in
the cases of Chicago Gas, Sugar. Louis

Chicago, Dec. 31.—After a short session,
marked bv considerable irregularity,
wheat closed %@%c higher tnu.ll yester
day. The trading was characteristically
a closing up kind, with very little new
business transacted, even by the scalpers.
The longs liquidated early tn th. day, the
shorts covered up later, the incentive to
strength In the tact half found in large
export clearances, 053,127 bushels, most of
which went out from New Yolk, and in
reports of returning gold to this country,
with rumors of a large loan being made
by the government.
Corn—The sentiment of traders was
averse to exertion inconsistent with thu
holiday spirit. Corn opened at 2&%c, sold
between 28c anil 25%@28%e, closing at un
changed from yesterday. Cash corn was
weak and %'ql per cent, bushel lower.
The oat market existed and that was
the best that could be said of it. There
was some trading, but not enough to
arouse interest or attract unusual atten
tion. The feeling was about steady, the
ruling quotations being the same as at
the close of yesterday. May oats closed
a shade higher than yesterday. Cash oats
were quiet and easy.
Provisions were perfectly willing to ac
company grain on the downward course,
inasmuch as they were adversely influ
enced by a weak hog market, but they
failed to exhibit any recuperative power
whatever. The business was mainly
changing and closing uq deals, more long
than short stuff appearing In the market.
The close was 12'-c under yesterday for
May pork, 5c lower for May lard anil 5T
7%c lower for May libs. Domestic mar
kets were quiet and steady.

I*amson Rros. & Co.’s Chicago market
letter, by private wire to T. F. John
son, broker, provident Building:*
“Chicago, Dec. 31.—There was little an
imation in the wheat market to-day till
the last hour, when the prices advanced
a cent per bushel. Initial transactions
were about %c below yesterday’s close,
owing to the failure of Liverpool to re
spond to our advance and on selling bv
holders, who preferred to even up their
traders rather than carry them over the
holiday. This carried the price down to
59c, there being little disposition on the
part of siiorts to cover. Later offerings
were light, anil the market advanced 1
cent per bushel. News has been of a
bullish character, indications point to an
active trade, both in grain and provis
ions. during the coming year. Prices are
extremely low. The situation is bullish,
and should light receipts and large clear
ances continue, the bulls will, in ail prob
ability, have a long inning. The advance
In freight rates to the *Hst had a bearish
effect on sample lots, ami the nearby de
liveries of corn, hut the deferred options
were in good demand, an*i show a slight
gain at the elose. Provisions suffered a
small reuetlon from tile advance of yes
terday, caused by free offerings on the
par! of packers of January stuff, It evi
dently being llwir intention to widen
the January and May spread. Should the
receipts continue small during January,
it Is quite likely better prices will pr>
vail.
