THE LOCAL MARKET.
The Macon cotton market was quiet
yesterday, and there was no variation
from the prices of the day before. Among
farmers, warehousemen and cotton buyers
there was a very bitter feeling against
Theo H. Price, because of his recent de
liverances.

Ware 4 Leland’s Cotton Letter.
NEW YORK, Doc. 7.—Tho cotton mar’
ket made several efforts to resist tho
pressure being exerted from all directions,
but the success was not striking. After
January had recovered to 7.70. the price
declined during the early afternoon to
7.6R again. It was a subject of con
gratulation that the market did not con
tinue its demoralisation. Even a halt
helped things. The trndera were afrnid
of a running break In the South and
another collapse here. With the most in-
Cnmmatory literature being circulated re
gardlng the demoralization and tho panic
that Is now on and everything Is being
done to shake confidence to help the bear
cause, the halt in the break Is a welcome
relief. It Is one thing to tnlk to the bear

Fluctuations very Irregular, but
rket In the main showed a steadier
of 7al5 points fn response to firmer ca
hies than expected. Liverpool was due
to report a decline of about 2a3 points,
hut Informed by speculative covering, de-
some positions, there was a renewal of
bear pressure locally, and fluctuations
during the morning were very Irregular
with prices nverngfng about the opening
figures or slightly lower. Shortly after
midday there was a hard drive by Tending

credited to the account of the Wall street
bear leader, and the market In the Into
trading was also steadied by reports of
very heavy exports, which reached nearly
a hundred thousand hales, and steadier
Southern spot markets. The close was
very steady at a net gain of 12a!7 points.

jlnrq the latter figured to be a feature
at the moment, the changes had consid
erable effect on sentiment. The Southern
J dvlces were rather bullish In thnt they
uggested nn Indisposition on the part
of many holders to sell on the decline.
On tho better levels, however, 'thpre was
considerable selling, nnd prices receded,
but supporting orders came out on the
dips nnd consequently the market at
times displayed morp stability than for
some time pnst. The trade generally
was fairly active nnd the general sltua
tlon was still referred to as rather unset
fled and uncertain and consequently not
a few Interests- were disposed to hold
off for tho time being. The recognized
longs in the market were not disposed to
buy much, nnd the largest demand war
traced to shorts. New Orleans Inter
ests in the local market sold some cotton
today, while the Liverpool representative?
were moderate buyers on the .lower levels.
The receipts of cotton contlnud fair, nnd
the movement suggested that tho ports
for the week would run over those for
the same period of time last year. Out
ilde business through wire and eommls<
slon houses was only of moderate propor
tions, but it was pretty well scattered ori
botn sides of the account. Tho Indica
tions pointed to a continued nervous nnd
rather unsettled market for tho balance
of the week,
