The Morning News Office,
Friday, Nov. 22.
The cotton market shqwed further
signs to-day of a revival of interest.
New York scored an advance of 2 to
points. There was reported to be
sood buying there for the South, and
also for Wall street. The South re
mained firm as usual, or at least this
was the case with the interior.
The trade at Savannah tends to bull
ishness on the theory that the crop is
to turn out a moderate one, and that
an improved demand is developing in
the goods markets. The country ap
parently shares the same idea, for they
offer cotton only in limited lots, and
then at prices considerably above what
a majority of exporters are willing to
pay.
The turpentine market closed lirm at
35c, with the demand good. Rosins
dosed firm and unchanged. The whole
sale markets closed steady, with a fair
improvement reported, parttcuTarly as
to the demand for fancy goods. The
following resume of the markets will
show their tone and quotations at the
closing to-day:
COTTON.
The week closes with the cotton mar
ket showing an advance above the pre
vailing prices of last Saturday. This is
due largely to the improved demand,
and also to the fact that holders have
maintained such firmness that it took
high bids to bring offerings into the
open market. Sales to-day were 1,059
by factors. In the f.o.b market the de
mand was all that could be expected*
Brokers found it difficult to Interest
the interior with the prices which were
being offered at times. As in the case
of spots only the better bids resulted
in business. F. G. M. was quoted at
7 13-16 c, and basis G. M. 7 11-16 c. Cot
ton futures closed steady, 2 to 5 points
up.

SEA ISLAND COTTON.
The closing of the week finds the
sea island cotton market in better po
sition, with prices higher than last
week. This is due to the strong sta
tistical position, and also to a Im
provement in the demand. Transac
tions were upon a good scale. The de
velopments of the past two weeks
would apparently indicate that spin
ners are gradually entering the mar
ket. This they are doing in an orderly
manner, however, and not so as to
“set the woods afire,” as it were.

COTTON FUTURES.
New York, Nov. 22.—The cotton mar
ket opened firm at an advance of 3 to
6 points and gained an additional point
or two immediately after the call on
vigorous buying for both accounts, led
by room shorts and by Wall street
bulls. Speculation was decidedly the
largest of recent times, though far un
der the tremendous trade of a year
ago. On the up turn, Europe, the
South and commission houses were lib
eral buyers, particularly January and
March options, which led the improve
ment and repeatedly sold at 7.70 c. In
addition to strong English cables the
market was strengthened by light re
ceipts, a bad weather map and relia
ble reports of an advance of 1-16 to %c
in spot prices South. A firmer ruling
of print cloths, more glowing reports
from dry-goods centers and small crop
estimates from the South were in
fluences upon which early bullish con
fidence was based. More talk of a email
government crop estimate next month
was Indulged in. The week end figures
were decidedly bullish; the total
amount brought into sight was 425,000
bales against 386.000 last year. Late in
the day there was a slight reaction un
der a flurry of profit-taking, but the
market readily stiffened up again on
renewed demand from shorts and fresh
buying from the outside. On the close
the market >vas steady with November
unchanged and other months 2 to 5
points higher.

Murphy A Co.'s Cotton Letter.
New York. Nov. 22.—Cotton opened 5
to 7 points higher on buying by the
Southwest and Wall street, and not a
little support from Liverpool, where
there was a full response to our rise
of yesterday. Wall street was giving
more attention to the market discuss
ing the probabilities of an overestimat
ed crop and this idea appeared to be
gaining ground dally, in fact, the sta
tistical situation since the opening of
the crop season has been favoring the
long side of the market, and the prob
ability is that big crop estimates will
be revised to a much smaller basis be
fore the movement report of next
month appear*. A Liverpool bank de
falcation caused a little hesitation af
ter the opening, but on the whole the
market was well sustained. The amount
brought into sight for the week was
426,000 against 447,000 last week, and
386.000 last year. Liverpool was 4*4
points higher to-day. Port receipts 50.-
000 against 44.000 last yewr. The statis
tical situation at Liverpool the past
week has undergone some Important
changes, the stock of all kinds having
gained *7.000 against 69,000. There err
new afloat of all kinds 42,000 less than

K, Jfc J). Dec?'* Cation Letter.
New Orleans, Nov. 22.—Liverpool
was firmer than anticipated in conse
quence of limited offerings from Amer
ican and a private estimate from this
side placing the crop at not over 10,000,-
000 bales. Our market responded by
opening 1 to 2 higher, improved 3 ad
ditional on fresh buying and shorts
covering, but declined 3 later on the
bearish visible and weakly in sight
movement, closing 1 to 2 points higher
cn the day. The interior towns during
the week received 24,000 less than last
year, but as Houston va* 34,000 under
last year, owing to holding back in
Texas, it shows that the points out
side were 10,000 in excess of last sea
son, and that the entire deficiency Is
in that state. Notwithstanding early
indications wera for i- light weakly
amount brought into sight, it aggre
gates 40,C00 over last year, and the
total marketed to date has been, re
duced to 53,000 under last year. The
total stock of American ashore and
afloat to Liverpool is 691,000, against
718,000 last year, or 27,000 less with the
prospect that it will-soon be In excess,
removing all fear of manipulation In
that market. The visible supply of
American increased during the week
173,000, against an increase of 128,000
last year, and the total to date is 149,-
000 in excess of last year, demonstrat
ing that spinners are taking sparingly
confirming the reports of unsatisfac
tory textile conditions in Europe. The
nearer the time approaches for the
issuance of the bureau's estimate, the
more pronounced is the opinion that it
will be very bullish and confirmatory
of the October condition Report, point
ing to a crop of 10,300,000. Shorts have
covered freely on that theory, and the
contracts now being furnished are
principally hedges against §pot pur
chases. The probabilities are that val
ues may be maintained, pending the
bureau, providing there Is no decided
increase in receipts.
Hubbard Bros. A- Cotton Letter.
New York, Nov. 22.—Liverpool re
sponded sharply to the Improvement
here yesterday closing steady at the
best prices. Our market opened steady
at an advance, has practically remain
ed unchanged during the morning, the
fluctuation being within a narrow
range. It has not shown the snap of
yesterday, probably because the esti
mates for to-morrow at Houston and
New Orleans were relatively larger
than they have been, but still light. It
remains, however, bullish in tone with
no one wishing to be short until more
is known of the crop movement. The
sellers were again the spot houses, and
there has been some profit taking on
the part of the buyers of the past two
weeks. Advices from Texas report
rather a larger movement in prospect,
but so far it does not appear. The
course of the market next week will
depend on this movement.

New York, Nov. 22.—The strength in
to-day's broad and animated market
was the sequence of the sudden awak
ening of speculative activity yester
day afternoon. A large bear account
was caught uncovered as a consequence
of the persistent short selling by the
professional element for some time
past on the assumption that the money
market could not escape a squeeze be
tween now and the first of the year,
and that the growth of opposition In
the Northwest to the Northern Securi
ties Company would disseminate de
pression throughout the market.
The unexpected collapse In the for
eign exchange market and the prospect
of recuperation for the money market
left the bears without much ground to
stand on, and thay bought eagerly to
cover to-day. This was a considerable
Influence in the recovery of prl es. But
the clearing up of the money situation I
leaves <he way open for the natural ,
opeiatlon of various forces makli g to- i
ward higher pikes The character of
to-day's mar kt* roads It appear that a .
considerable speculative element h*s ,
been waiting sod eagerly ou the watch
for fust this development. Tile dr. j

selling was accentuated by a renewal
of the acute weakness In People's Gas
on the denial of a restraining order
against the assessment of taxes on the
alleged high valuations of Illinois cor
porations. The stock tumbled 2*4 from
the best, and Consolidated Gas slumped
4%. The aggressive strength of New
York Central and Manhattan contin
ued a widely diffusive Influence lu the
whole market. No Information was
forthcoming to explain these move
ments.
There were rumors of control of
Manhattan by New York Central and
of a coming distribution of the sur
plus in the treasuries of New York
Central’s subsidiary companies. The
determined buying of Pennsylvania and
the aggiesslve bidding up of Pittsburg,
Cincinnati, Chicago and Bt. Louis were
based entirely, to al! appearances, on
a purpose to rectify the disproportion
In the prices of those stocks compared
with the Vanderbilts. The placing of
Hocking Valley on a regular 3 per cent,
dividend basis was an earnest of the
prosperous conditions ruling in the soft
coal trade, which was reflected in the
absence of practically that whole group
of stocks. The October statement of
the net earnings of New Jersey Central
showing an increase of 165 per cent,
over those of October of last year was
ample explanation of the recent
strength in the anthracite coalers.
The collapse in the foreign exchange
market was due to the sudden falling
off In the demand to cover maturities,
which have been a feature of the mar
ket for several weeks. The further de
cline in the jylce of gold In London
and an advanefe in the sterling rate at
Paris corroborated the assurance that
the foreign requirements for gold are
satisfied for the present.
The railroad bond market was quite
active and strong. Total sales, par
