The Morning New? Office,
Wednesday, March 13.
The strength of the rosin market was
,hi> feature of to-day's local markets. An
(ivmice of 5c throughout the line was
,-j.-t, oat the opening call, with sales of
ami further sales of 143 at the clos
jllg at unchanged prices. The tone of
•he market was firm, with the feeling
favorable for considerable trading at the
p w level. The turpentine market open
f.i steady t 37c, and closed unchanged
with no official business reported. The
demand was rather indifferent, with buy
ers looking for concessions to bring them
into the market.
Prom its varying movements it would
take a close anulyer to determine the real
feeling which existed as to the potton fu
tures market. It moved one way and
t ien the other, closing quiet and steady
with prices net 3 points higher to 5
points lower. The report that Ellison is
to issue a bullish statement to-morrow
on consumption is given as responsible
for an improved demand for spots in
Liverpool, and a wave of buying in New
York toward the close by shorts in antic
ipation of a reaction. Meantime spot mar
kets continue easy and uninteresting,
with the tendency to yield to the slight
est pressure. Savannah closed quiet at
a decline of 4&c on all grades. The New
York stock market closed easy and be
low the highest for the day. Money on
call ruled steady at 2% to 244 per cent.
The following resume of the different
markets will show the tone and quota
tions at the closing to-day:
COTTON.
The cotton market closed quiet at a
decline of %c on all grades, with sales,on
the spot of 272. The demand continued
spotty, with little of interest in any
quarter. Offerings from the interior were
in limited volume on a basts'of 9 l-160 for
fjcod middling f.o.b. Savannah's receipts
were 2,148 against 3,356 last year, and 2,369

SRA ISLAND COTTON.
I fading in the sc island cotton market
continues Inactive. The demand is light
irom all sources. The trading being done
ai present is In lots dumped on the mar
l et by dissatisfied holders, who seem to
he willing to take the prices their cotton
"111 bring. The alleged discrimination
shown by the sea island syndicate against
savannah In favor of interior markets is
Probably the strongest factor of the pres
ent depression in view of the fact that
Pretty steady buying has been done for
e-vcral weeks past In the Interior mar
kets at a slight advance on local prices.
It is said the syndicate Is endeavoring to
"ten up old scores with the Savannah
market for putting up price* on consum-
M| in the past. Tlje manufacturer* of
• island cotton have adopted the
imid-to-mouth" policy of buying in or

COTTON FUTURES.
The Market Closes (Inlet anil Stead?
a Ip to 5 Off.
New York. March 13.—Early events on
the Cotton Exchange were in line with
preconceived ideas of the bear faction,
but later developments were not according
to the schedule of the shorts; in fact, the
bear element as a whole was very much at
a loss to know just which way to turn
during the afternoon. They were linally
compelled to beat a more or less hasty
retreat. The result of this change in the
character of the business was an advance
of 14 points from the lowest to highest
prices.
On the call the market was easy and 1
to 9 points lower under nervous selling
from nearly all quarters for both accounts.
Cables were disappointing, while advices
from domestic points were also of depress
ing purport. Following the call the decline
was increased to a matter of 8 to 11 points
with the market showing every symptom
of further weakness. The issuance of
quite a number of March notices and es
timates for larger receipts at leading
points South helped to weaken the mar
ket in general. Soon after midday rumors
were circulated to the effect that Ellison
was to issue a bullish consumption circu
lar in J.iverpoo! to-morrow, and that in
expectation of this spinners abroad were
paying higher prices for large amounts
of spot cotton. The fact that several Im
portant orders for spot cotton had been
executed In New Orleans in the early af
ternoon by Manchester and continental
spinners gave color to the Ellison reports.
Shorts soon became alarmed and were
soon retiring hastily. Wall street appeared
as a buyer of near months, German in
terests bought July and August freely,
while the South bid for cotton extending
from March to December delivery. On
the upturn reports bulls were quick to
see their opening, and followed up their
advantage with a vim. Near the close
profit-taking caused a partial reaction
from the top. At the close the market
was quiet and steady with prices net 2
points higher to 5 points lower.

Murpliy & Co's Cotton Letter.
New York. March 13—Cotton in Liver
pool l-32d lower on spots, middling 4 15-16d,
sales 12,000. Futuies during forenoon
ruled feverish, opened about l-64d high
er, reached about 3-64d, and stood at noon
about same as yesterday's closing. As
this market recovered most of the decline
during the afternoon yesterday, and Liv
erpool closed yesterday at a net decline
of 3 to 4-64d, an advance of about 2-64d
was expected, owing to less bearish feel
ing In Liverpool than In New Y’ork. Our
locals regarded Liverpool this morning
as rather disappointing and resulted in
our opening being 5 to 6 points under
close of last night. However, before noon
call. It was rumored that Ellison would
issue a bullish circular to-morrow in re
gard to consumption of stocks, etc. This
caused some uneasiness among shorts and
also Influenced fresh buying, prices ad
vancing 10 to 12 points. Estimated port
receipts to-day 18,000 against 20,000 last
year. New Orleans expects to-morrow 8,-
000 to 9,000, against 7,381; Houston 4,300
to 4,800 against 1,590.
Ilalihnrd Bros. A Co.’s Cotton Letter.
New York, March 13.—Liverpool did not
respond to our improvement of yester
day and our market opened with selling
by the buyers of yesterday under which
the market fell to the lowest point on
this decline. Arbitrage brokers were the
principal buyers reselling their purchases
in Liverpool. Our local traders again be
gan to work for another reaction which
they succeeded in bringing about by noon.
The receipts at the semi-weekly towns
are double last season, and the movement
at the ports is also heavy, but the local
trade feel that the market is entitled to
a substantial reaction from this decline.
These reactions tend to reduce the dispo
sition to be short, notwithstanding the
advices received from the South of the
FINANCIAL.

Liverpool.
H. & B. Beer’s Cotton Letter.
New Orleans, March 13.—The course of
Liverpool was disappointing and our mar
ket in sympathy opened 8 points lower,
declined 2 to. 3 on the heavy semi-weekly
interior free port receipts and the week
ness of spots. About this time a rumor
was circulated that Mr. Ellison would is
sue a bullish circular in Liverpool, super
inducing covering by shorts and occasion
ing an advance of 10 to 11 from the bot
tom. Near the close the easiness of
spots in the principal Southern markets
caused a slight recession making the net
loss on the day 2 to 3 points. Referring
to rumor that Mr. Ellison will issue a
bullish circular. There was nothing au
thentic received, and judging by the ut
terances contained in the Liverpool Daily
Post, of March 1. which are supposed to
emanate from ElHpoii as he is the com
mercial editor of that paper, it does not
look as if the statement was correct. As
evidence of this we know China and Ja
pan are practically out of the market,
and German weavers have resorted to
short time. Many Bombay mills have
closed, and others are working on short
time. Restriction- is practically general
in Great Britain. Southern spinners in
America are curtailing and Northern
spinners are taking steps in the same
direction, judging from Fall River press
advices. It is evident that the textile
trade conditions arc very unsatisfactory,
and as all indications point to the crop
having been under-estimated and con
sumption over-estimated, the prospects
are values will ultimately seek a lowei
level.
DRY GOODS.
New York, March 13.—Business condi
tions here have not undergone any ma
terial change to-day. Buyers refuse to
grow enthusiastic and are still placing
restricted orders. Home demand for
heavy brown cottons slow. Demand for
China again in the market, but at low
prices. No rhange has been reported in
the demand for bleached cbttons or
coarse colored goods. Print cloths inac
tive and prints and ginghams quiet to
day. In men’s wear woolens and worsted
business moderate and tone of market
indifferent. Dress goods quiet and sta
ples securing bulk of the demand.
NAVAL STORE*.
Wednesday, March 13.
SPIRITS—The turpentine market open

ers were expecting to get into the mar
ket on a lower basis than quotations.
The day’s receipts were 267, and the ex
ports 170.
ROSINS—The advance in rosins of 5c
throughout the line was the feature of
the naval stores market. Sales of 1,525
were reported at thf advance prices at
the opening, and further sales of 143 at
the closing. The tone of the market was

STOCKS AND BONDS.
The Closing Easy and I niler flip Rest
of the Day.
New York, March 13.—The dealings In
to-day’s stock market covered an extra
ordinary range of securities. Quotations
were made for some stocks which have
lain dormant for many days, and a num
ber of usually very quiet stocks were
made active. Stocks of some small rail
roads which are usually obscure by rea
son of the smallness of their capital stock,
were made comparatively conspicuous in
to-day’s marke,t.
Operations were constantly shifting from
one stock to another or from one group
to another, no one stock maintained its
prominence during the whole day. It was
a noticeable fact also that many of the
standard stocks, which are usually looked
to for the bulk of the trading, were com
paratively quiescent and moved very nar
rowly. 6ome of this class were moved
lath In the day. apparently through ma
nipulation,'as though th£ professional op
erators were prompted to correct the ap
pearance of singularity In the market due
to the special character of the trading.
Nevertheless the day’s operations foot-d
up quite an Important aggregate and the
general appearance of the market, not
withstanding its peculiar features and the
difficulty of analyzing It, was one of ac
tivity anil strength.
There was a tendency to yield the high
est prices as Interest was shifted to new
points. Extensive realizing was going on
In the general list under cover of the
strength in siiots, and In the last hour
an active selling movement to take prof
its caused a general reaction reaching a
point or more in some of the active
stocks. The closing itself was rather
easy, and much below the best all around.
Among the day’s special movements the
Southwestern stocks were prominent, led
by St. Louis Southwestern, the common
rising 4 and the preferred 4%. The Lake
Erie and Western stocks were very
strong, the common rising 4% and the
preferred 4. It Is believed that the move
ment indicates new connections for that
system. Buffalo, Rochester and Pittsburg
preferred and Burlington, Cedar Rapids
and Northern rose 4 points each. The ex
press stocks were strong, American Ex
press rising 4, Wells Fargo 2%, and Unit
ed States 3 with a reaction of 1%.
Among other stocks which rose from 1
to 2 points at some time during the day.
may be mentioned Chicago Great Wes
tern, Chicago, Indianapolis and Louis
ville stocks, Chicago terminal stocks, Chi
cago and Eastern Illinois stocks, Des-
Moines and Fort Dodge, Pere Marquette,
Minneapolis and St. Louis, Wisconsin
Central stocks. Chesapeake and Ohio and
Norfolk and Western. Among the indus
trials, Cotton Oil, the malting stocks.
People’s Gas, Western Union, Continen
tal Tobacco preferred and Brooklyn Tran
sit gained as much. St. louls and San
Francisco, after rising strongly, fell 2
points under last night. The movement
in the Southwestern group was the most
consistent of the day and was based on
the evidence of substantial prosperity
among the railroads In that region and
the general belief that plans for exten
sive consolidation are working out.
The money market continued unruffled
In spite of the absorption by the sub
treasury thus far this week of *2,167.000
and the knowledge that *20,000,000 must be
provided for the disbursement of the
Standard Oil dividend on Friday. There
was no evidence of calling of loans to-day,
and the stock market was undisturbed by
any uneasiness over money.
Business in railroad bonds continued
large and many substantial advances
were scored. Total sales par value *7,-
380,000. U. 8. 3’s advanced % per cent on
the last call.

Murphy A Co's Stock Letter.
New Y'ork, March 13.—The stock market
wholly Ignored the lower range of prices
shown for Amercan stocks In the Lon
don market to-day and oi>ened active and
decidedly strong. Interest was again
most largely expressed In those special
ties which have been conspicuous for
some days past, notably Toledo, St. Louis
and Bout he western, St. Louis and Ban
Francisco and St. Louts and Southwes
tern. The Granger stocks were compar
atively neglected and dealings In the At
thraclte coal group were again restricted
on account of the uncertainty as to the
issue of the deliberations of the miners’
union. Elsewhere in the list, conspicu
ous strength was shown by Minnesota
and St. l/ouis, Norfolk and Western, and
NVlscoroSln Central. Consolidated Gas
was a feature of the specialties In a very
sharp advance. The Industrials were in
no wise conspicuous in the early dealings.
