Nothing of Interest developed '(.-day in !
cither the local or ouisltlt markets, spot
cotton closed quiet and steady end un- *
. i.ihiied. The cotton futures market
i loved quiet, with the range of prices uur- j
w fur the day. Spirits turpentine ruled
m at S6o. and rosins closed firm and un
. hinged.
(leneral quiet Is noted In the wholesale I
markets cm present. This Is due to the
Met that nearly all the larger houses
lire preparing 10 take stock between now
and the opening of the new year. Then,
too. much attention Is being given to the '
winding up of old accounts. In con*B
-of which sight drafts are being
drawn quite liberally Jobbers make It a
point to ascertain their atandlng at the
.lose of each year, and to do this re
quires the taking of stock, und the col
ie Hot) of all collectable accounts. No
tear Is felt about satisfactory collecStons,
however. S the general prosperity which
has prevailed during the year among the
farmers enable! the country merchants
to make their collections and m*t their
* hligattons to their etty friends.
This was another day of buoyancy and
activity In the stock market, which closed .
strong after a day of wide variations In
many of the prominent Issues under the
pressure of pretty general profit taklnr
Money opened at 6 per cent, on call, but
later ruled easier, the last loan being
made at 4*4 per cent. The following re- I
