The Morning News Office,
Saturday, May 18.
The feature of the day's markets was
the further rise in spirits turpentine,
which closed firm at 32c, with sales of a
fair lot reported for the half holiday. The
demand still seems strong enough to keep
the market on firm ground, and until it
1- more fully satisfied than appeared at
the closing to-day the trade look for a
further improvement in the price. Rosins
closed firm, with the demand good from
ail sources.
The spot cotton market closed quiet and
unchanged, with no apparent revival in
trading. There seems to be no inclination
ort the part of interior holders to ofTer cot
ton at present, and this, with the back
wardness of spinners to buy, leaves the
situation without the first stimulating
feature. The cotton futures market at
New York closed steady, with prices net
unchanged to 4 points lower. Rains were
reported in many sections of the cotton
be.t during the day, but in each case
they were less than an inch. New York
stocks closed at the advance. The whole
sale markets closed steady and in the
main unchanged. The following resume
of the markets will show the tone and
quotations at the closing to-day:

Murphy & Co.’s Cotton Letter.
New York, May 18.—The main feature
of the day which attracted most interest
was the weather report. Rain fell at a
number of points, especially in Texas, and
adjacent territory, but in no instance was
it more than a small fraction of an inch.
The conclusion reached by the trade was
that the Texas drouth has been broken
ir. one respect, and in another not broken.
Rains have undoubtedly covered a wide
area, but they have been by no means as
general as desired, nor has the moisture
amounted to anything more than good
showers. Certainly it has not been
enough to germinate the seed, about
which we have been hearing so much
complaint. Taken in connection with the
Chronicle report issued to-day, the sit
uation was sized up as bullish. Many had
looked for a rather bearish Chronicle re
port, whereas it read in many respects,
bullish. The question of boll-weevil in
Texas, to which we have been calling at
tention of late forms a feature of report,
and is attracting no little attention. We
shall probably require a few days to hear
from the Texas points where rain has
been reported the past 48 hours, and the
general expectation IS that they have
failed to be very beneficial. The heavi
est rain to-day was at Fort Smith, .08
inch, Savannah, .40, and Palestine .06.
Liverpool evidently Interpreted the sit
uation ns more bullish than bearish, and
instead of taking advantage of Texas
rains, showed an advance of % to 1 point
for the futures. New York did little trad
ing, and after opening at about yester
day’s figures, there was a small amount
of business up to the close, and little
change Ih price. Receipts at the ports for
the day estimated at 5,000, against 6,000
last year.
11. A- B. Beer’s Collon Letter
New Orleans, May 18.—Our market
opened one higher in response to more
favorable Liverpol advices *than expect
ed, but when it was ascertained that
rains were general in Texas, Oklahoma,
Arkansas, North Louisiana, North Flor
ida, Georgia, the Carolinas, and Tennes
see, values eased off 3, steadying slightly
near the close, making the net loss on
the day 1 to f points. Rains have fallen
throughout the belt and have proven ben
eficial to the growing crop. In some
sections it is claimed that there has been
an insufficiency of moisture, yet by ref
erence to the official data furnished by
■the government with the exception of a
few stations in Louisiana and elsewhere
all points have had good showers. There
is no question about the crop having a
good start and weather conditions have
been favorable during May. Notwith
standing all legitimate features are
against the article sellers are timid, be
ing in check by the fear of New "York
manipulation in July. The consequence
is the short interest is reduced to a min
imum and Is a weak factor in the situa
tion because any sailing on continued
good weather conditions will be met with
little resistance.
Habitant Bros. A Co-’s t'otton Laffer.
New York, May 18.—Our market open
ed with sales of July at 7.58 c, and after
selling at 7.6007.58 c, ruled at 7.68 c at 11
a. m. The end of the week market was
exceptionally dull, and on the report of
quite general rains in Texas, showed a
declining tendency. Business being very
restricted, there was no feature in the
trading of note. The close was at about
the lowest figures, and the drift appeared
to be for lower prices. The spot market
was quiet and unchanged. July closed
at 7.56 c last year; 9.32 c dull.

The Last Prices Were Below the
Best In Most ruses.
New York, May 18.—The promise of re
newed strength In stocks held out by yes
terday's market was not fully realized to
day, although the substantial gains early
were not all wiped out by the late reac
tionary tendency, due principally to the
bank statement. Just at the close there
was an abrupt marking up of a few
atocrta to top prices, apparently by ma
nipulation, which lessened the appearance
of weakness.
The disappointing feature of the bank
statement Was the decrease In the cash
reserve. The preliminary estimates of the
interior currency movement indicated that
receipts had been so heavy as to offset
the outgo by gold export and sub-treas
ury requirements and bring the net gain
In cash by the banks to $6,0*1,000 or
upwards. The statement shows a decline
on the contrary of $1,283,600. This discrep
ancy is surprising, but the fact is ob
vious that the relaxation In the money
rate here hae lessened the attraction here,
which was drawing money from the In
terior during the stringency of last week
and early thta week, just as It has al
lowed gold to go to Europe. Ths heavy
stock market liquidation la shown In the
$24,204,900 of repayments of bank loins.
It Is clear that the money marked is
again a factor to be considered In tbs

After a poor start the toffee market did
better to-day and closed with the bull
faction largely In control. The opening
was steady, with prices unchanged to 6
points lower, the decline being In sym
pathy with easier European markets and
larger Brazilian port receipts than had
been taken into account. Foreign sell
ing. chiefly Oerman, was a feature of
early operations and for a lime every
thing pointed (o a still low
er market as supporting or
ders were few and far between.
Then profit-taking by room shorts, sup
plemented by support from the public and
abroad, gave the market a much steadier
appearance, and filially sent prices up
sharply. Bullish late Rio cables helped to
strengthen hull sentiment here. Total
