TURPENTINE AGAIN DROPS. THE MARKET SOW FIRM AT 45 CENTS A GALLOS. The Demand at the Decline In Only Moderate—Roaina Firm and 1n - ciiu nsed—Cot ton Nominal and 1 n clan*ed—Local and Telegraphic Markets. Morning News OfflJ?, June 9.—The feat ure of the local markets to-day was the ...drop in turpentine, which went off % cent at the opening. At the decline there was a -fairly good demand, though the indif ference shown was not encouraging to the . bullish element. Rosins were firm end unchanged at the recent advances, which have not tended to lessen trading to any considerable extent. It is staled the de mand for both foreign and domestic ac count Is good, and that the outlook is en couraging for the maintenance of present prices. It is believed that the possibility of a light crop, which many believe will appear more evident as the season progresses, will tend to help values. That producers have made preparations for a crop they will not Ip* able to harvest seems to be the gen eral understanding among factors. This Is due to the shortage of labor, which pie ve.nis the prosecution of farm work, and will, therefore be a serious drawback ro • ihv large yield producers were expecting. The cotton market closed nominal and unchanged, with the complaint still being a lack of demand. Until there is a strong er demand for cotton the market will con tinue in its present inactive condition. The wholesale markets were active. All - branches of the wholesale trade, together with naval stores houses, closed at 2 o'clock, the hour for closing on Satur days. The minor markets were steady. . Commission men cut prices freely to get stuff off their hands they did not want t-0 carry over Sunday. The following re sume of the different market.- will show* che tone and quotations at the closing to da y COTTON. There was no change in the cotton tfiorket to-dav. The trade look for a de mand from some source shortly, but not e .hfe prepared to say where it will be from. *The interior mills are understood to h- Qretty well supplied into next month. The hope is in the chances for a de mandfrom foreign sources, end this is r iror altogether encouraging at present. .The receipts to-day were 162 bales, against year. The stock is 19.085.

June 9 —The market for cot ton futures opened steady with prices. 8 points higher on July, and 2(fr4 points higher on later months, due to ti rush local shorts for cover, and a flurry of buying for foreign Interests. Following the call the July and August options *ib s<>rbed the hulk of attention, and exhibited singular strength. The former reached ' 8 70c within the first half-hour, this • - lug 21 points above last night’s closing ‘ROrh'Ofs were soon in circulation, to the effect that prominent Boston and Phil adelphia concerns, long of that option, had determined to unload ♦heir holdings upon belated shorts here, after prices hod been forced to a mu h higher level. August shorts immediately took fright, fearing n possible extension of the bull movement to that delivery, and in an effort to reach safer ground, forced prices up rapidly. Tha> the strength did not originate in New Orleans as at first sup posed. was clearly indicated by on indiffer ent response jn that market, to our ad vance here. The new crop options fol lowed the present crop month uplift le; - urely. and were relatively quieter. The ctop news was decidedly better from the Southwest, and weather conditions over the entire belt, showed n marked Improve ment. The holiday in .Liverpool, and un certainty as to the purport of Mondays bureau, showing, served to Intimidate the outside public In a measure, and very lit tle business come from that source dur ing the short session.

The Depressed Condition of Stocks Not Relieved. New York, June 9.—Those who expected that the bears who sold stocks short in large volume during the final dealings yesterday would scamper to cover their shyrfs to-day and work a sharp rally to close the week, were disappointed. The depressed condition of foreign stock mar kets continued to-day in spite of the rather more reassuring opinions for a peaceful outcome to affairs in China, so far ns the interests of European Powers an concerning. Selling for London ac count was on a liberal scale heie. Rumors are disseminated to the effect that this foreign selling is really for account of fcome large New York operators at pres ent in Europe, and who have long been prominent on the bear side of the mar ket. The fact is that yesterday's sudden weakness of stocks is pot clearly under stood ns to its motives or its source and current rumors represent the surmises of those groping for iighL more than any authentic knowledge. Wail street is, in reality, rather skeptical about reports of crop failure at this stage. Neither is the foreign selling in sufficient volume o ac count for the weakness. The news of the day, while inclining toward depres sion. is of about the same character as for some time past, while the market has been sluggishly indifferent. Speculators arc, therefore, inclined to fear that some unfavorable factor not yet known to the public, is inducing liquidation. The money outlook, beyond the immedi ate future, is not altogether satisfactory. The week's additional loan expansion of | $6,483/>OO must clearly be attributed o re newed foreign demands upon our credits. Estimates of the future ease of the lo al money market have been predicted upon a cessation of this foreign demand. The acuteness of the stress for funds in Ber lin seems to be the cause of the new' de mand. If this loan extension to foreign borrowers should continue into the period when Now York banks arc called upon o finance the crop movement, now no/ far distant, n rapid dissolution of the surplus, which was reduced to-day to $18,374,250. would necessarily, reamt. Yesterday’s additional call for $5,C00,C0) of government deposits will be followed by three calls of the same amount, thus | taking up the whole of the $25,000.'000 nec- , essury io redeem the government 2s, which are called for Aug. 18. These bonds are in the names of the banks, are on deposit as security for circulation. It is optional with the banks when they shall be presented for redemption. Until they are redeemed .the calling of govern ment deposits from the banks will con tinue to act, as a drain on the money market. The market closed steady on a covering movement by room traders.
