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.

New York, Dec. 31.—Wall street was in a waiting mood to-day and the dealings at the Stock Exchange fell off materially, the sales footing up only 153,351 shares an I 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 ing issues. The strength of the market was 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 ville and Nashville, the Grangers South western. the Vanderbilts, 'West/- n Union, Tennessee Coal and Baltimore and Ohio. Sugar was in demand on the fur ther advance in refined; Baltimore and Ohio moved up on covering of short con tracts by operators who crpocted the company to default on its January inter est and Chichi .Gas imptoved on the THE MORNING NEWS: WEDNESDAY.

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. Leading futures ranged as follows: Opening. Highest.

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. Cincinnati, Deo. 31.—Flour and wheat unchangad. t’orn steady; No. 2 while, 28%c.
