The Morning New* Office,
Monday. Dec 17.
A drop of from 5 o 3 points In the
cotton futures market to-day was fol
lowed by a decline In the spot market*
, n ,rally. Savannah closed quiet at a
,ia line of 4c. with trading nominal, and
,„ , .parent demand of consequence for
.attain Holders made their usual stout
resistance to lower prices, and the ato
rence of concession* made exporters In-
Oilterenl about talon* supplies. For this
riason the day closed with transactions
small lots, and with business restrict
ed throughout the day. The spirits tur
pentine market closed Arm, at 27 %c. with
a general demand for supplies. The rosin
market closed Arm and unchanged, with
H moderate demand prevailing. The wbole
saia markets closed active and In the
main unchanged.
Again the feature of the outside mar
kets was the upward movement of New
York stocks, which dosed up as to near
j> all the leading Issues. Strength cen
tered In the railroads, though the New
York utilities were strong, oml closed
higher, particularly Brooklyn Rapid Tran
s. and Metropolitan Kailway. Northern
Pacific common made a sharp lump at
the close. The following resume or the
cifleretrt markets will show the lone and
quotations at the closing to-day:

The spot cotton market closed quiet at
a decline of lie on alt grades, galea on iba
-pot wer* IK bale*. The receipts were t>.-

light, both by Motors and brokers. The
interior did not seem anxious to offer

about the lowest for the day.
New York. Dec. 17. - Hubbard
Bros. * Cos. say; Liverpool refused
to respond to our advance of Saturday ex
cept In a perfunctory way, showing that
the movement had more effect abroad
than at hom* At the opening nearby
positions were pressed for sale, being tak
en by the local trade, and a rally fol
lowed It was soon evident there was li
quidation In progress In January and
price* receded The movement at Hous
ton wae large, and New Orloans moder
ate. while the semi-weekly movement
points to over inn.(do, against 78,000 last
year. Vn4tt more cotton points toward*
this market we expect sharp and sudden
fluctuations. •• the local trade consider
that the nearby positions are under con
trol The temper la to buy on all weak
movements and not to be short despite the
movement.

New York, Dec. 17.—The surface Indies
tlons IQ to-day’a stock market all go to
•bow that stock* were In very active
course of transfer from th# hands of
strong to those of weak holders. Th* cul
m.notion of the rtee Invariably presents
this very condition, but It Is a condition
also which occurs ai tmervAls In every
long eustalned upward movement.
The conservative element, after seetug
a certain profit assured, makes li
a habit to sell and take a profit,
without regard to the prospoct
of lurther advance. Tho weight
of Influence then passes to the bear party
and the upward course is not renewed un
til they have exhausted their beat efforts
to push the reaction to a culmination.
Whnt WHS'SVt tent to-day was that pow
erful skillful manipulation was at work
to mike the opening price# as nigh as
possible to meet the flood of outside buy
ing orders which was certain to come
|uto tae market after lari week's eveota
From the very first enormous lYalitlnu
was In evidence, later In the .lay varl
ou| attempts were made to hold up the
market by marking up the prices of vari
ous Individual stocks. Aa the fret became
more and more evident that the sustain
ing force of these Individual movements
was taken advantage of to continue the
unloading of heavy lines of long stock,
the profesclon.il element on the exchange
turned to the bear side. They wer# sue
cemful tn forcing a sharp reaction, much
reducing the gains that had been largest
and -omcdclely wiping out a large num
ber of those that had only reached moder
ate proportions.
Manipulation developed at the close
again to rally the market by bidding ur>
Northern I‘a’lfle to 7*4. a record price.
The shorts were buying to coyer else,
where, so that the closing • generally
steady, with the further course* of the
market very unsettled and doubtful. Even
with the net changes In prices to-day
very small, the profits on last week ad
vance* are on ait enormoiM scale. To
day's tir.lmated outburst of outside ppec
uaitlon was the logical consequence of
last week * events.
The palpable fact that large hanking
and flnaiKtal Internal* were taking on
enormous lines of various stocks and the
developments of the week pointing to far
reaching plans and the Improvement oi
values was offset for a time by the ap
parently .lungcrous condition of Inc
money market, but the showing In the
Saturday t>.mk statement led to the con
clusion that extraordinary measures were
being taken by powerful financial Inter
net* to conserve the ease of the money
market ugolnst the natural drain on Its
resource*. The normal course of sub
treasury operations also promised some
relief this week
The outburst of bullish enthusiasm wit
a certain consequence. The fact seem*
to be that strong hanking interest* pro
v'de.l tnsmtelvrs long since with ample
resources to take advantage of the re
actionary tendency of stock* Incident to
the December period to absorb very heavy
amounts of the various railroad stocks
tvhlch have figured most largely in the
stock market for muny day# past. Bo
large and effective was this buying as
to overcome the natural reactionary ten
dency in the market and to prompt the
speculative public to rush to secure
stocks, seeing that the expected reaction
was not likely to occur before January.
Higher prices for stocks in January have
been 4he universal expectation on the
Stock exchange, and spo.'ulatora have
only awaited an opportunity to buy stocks
end to ho.d them lately In anticipation
of the January rise. Last week’s hack
statement was accepted as the assurance
that mony resources wou.d be ample to
hold stock* over the January 1 period
Outside of th* opening general advance
ranging up to between I and 2 point*, the
most striking later advance* were In New
York nubile utilities tad by Brooklyn
Rapid Trie-,i ar.d Mrirof.olKan. the r.rl*
ta
