The Morning News Office,
Tuesday, March 11.
The markets were very tame to-day,
lth practically no activity in any
u'irter. This was particularly so with
L cotton market, which tiuctuated
considerably, closing finally steady,
, ith prices 4 lower to 1 point higher.
Much pressure was put upon the mar
m by the eagerness of longs to un
load, and also a desire to sell by bears
, h0 ’ concluded from the softness of
the market that further declines were
impending. The spot markets were on
the whole unchanged, with the demand
light and sales small. While export
(,lS re in the market for supplies
they would not pay the asked prices,
and as usual, this restricted business
considerably. The cotton offering at
Savannah from the country was on a
basis of B%c for good middling.
Turpentine closed firm at 43c, with
the demand light. Rosins closed firm
and unchanged, with the demand light,
and sales small. However, factors held
firmly to their stocks, and would not
invite trading at concessions. Resume
of the markets as follows:
COTTON.
Spot cotton closed steady and un
changed to-day, with sales by factors
of 203. Another scare apparently fol
lowed that of yesterday at New York,
and under the strong pressure of liqui
dation the futures market staggered
more than once and closed steady, 4
lower to 1 higher. This produced a
dampening effect upon spots, though
the latter held stubbornly, with holders
unwilling to accept any sort of decline.
In the f. o. b. market the play of buy
ers was to pick up cotton at lower
prices, but this did not result in much
business. Long since the country was
thoroughly convinced that this is a
moderate crop, and that the world's de
mands are to be large, so that there
may not be an excessive supply. De
clines such as those the past two days
have therefore been regarded by the
country as natural pauses. Another
outburst of buying is looked for soon,
which may carry prices up, as did the
last support the market received from
the public. Current quotations for F.
G. 11. were 9c, and O. M. B%c.

on by failure on Liverpool’s part to
fully respond to the heaviness here
of yesterday. Moreover, the trade here
had made some reckoning on a serious
decline under the bad South African
news, but to which English traders
seemed to attach little importance so
far as its effect upon cotton and cotton
goods were concerned. Following the
call Liverpool continued to work higher
and prices in the local ring improved,
the belief being that weak long cot
ton had pretty thoroughly been shaken
out, and that bull support was once
more at hand. Houston estimated
small receipts for to-morrow and
Southern spot market news was bull
ish. But after rising to 8.80 for May,
and to S.S6e for July, fresh liquidation
set in and bear pressure became a fea
ture. A large estimate for to-morrow's
New Orleans receipts and fear of stop
orders being reached, caused room
longs and shorts alike to take the sell
ing side. Before a rally occurred May
broke to 8.72 c and July to 8.76 c. For
the rest of the session the market was
very feverish, at times stiffening on
demand from shorts to secure profits,
but later weakening again under pres
sure of long cotton. The close was
barely steady with prices, 4 points
lower to 1 point higher. Total sales
were estimated at 250,000 bales.

lluLhflril Bros. fc Co.'s Cotton Letter.
New York, March 11.—Notwithstand
ing the better advices from Liverpool
than expected, the market here has not
shown any great resistance to the slow
liquidation which has continued on the
heavier movement than expected. It
now seems probable that the movement
In sight for the week will equal, if not
exceed, that of last season, and this
outlook brought slow outside selling. A
reaction was not sustained, and the
supporting orders on the basis of S.SOc
for July were not large enough to sus
tain the market, which now
depends entirely on the receipts,
as the time has come when they must
show a falling off to bear out the short
crop and reports of exhaustion of the
interior supplies to attract fresh spec
ulation and spinning buying.
DRV GOODS.
New York, March 11.—The market
for all descriptions of print cloths is
affected by the uncertain labor condi
tions at Fall River, neither buyers nor
sellers showing much disposition to
do business. In this market conditions
show little change In any direction.
The tone continues very firm in most
descriptions with demand of ordinary
proportions.

TLTRPENTINE The turpentine
market opened firm at 43c, with sales
of 60, and closed firm and unchanged,
with no closing sales. While the de
mand was very light supplies in fac
tors’ hands are being firmly held, and
there is not much hope of hammering
the market unless the effort is aided
by very unfavorable developments.
Receipts to-day 179, and the exports
250.
ROSINS —Little was doing in the
rosin market to-day, which closed
steady and unchanged from previous
prices. The extreme quiet of turpen
tine xvas fully responded to in the
rosin market. There was no disposi
tion to sacrifice holdings on the part
of factors, however, and their reluc
tance to accept concessions helped to
restrict business. Receipts, 2,061, and

STOCKS AND BONDS.
New York. March 11. —Wall street
sentiment .experienced a sense of relief
when the reports of the early London
market showed that powerful support
was afforded the Kaffir market there
and that very little damage had re
sulted elsewhere from the shock of the
capture by the, Boers of Gen. Methuen.
The price of British consols yielded only
a shade, which was probably the most
accurate index of the real gravity of
the event in its influence upon British
financial affairs.
The revised reports of the output of
gold from the Witwatersrand for Feb
ruary is probably of more real impor
tance at this stage of the war, and its
showing rrjay help to explain the in
difference of the London market to the
Methuen disaster. According to this
report by the Transvaal Chamber of
Mines, 81,405 ounces of gold were taken
out during February, compared with
70,340 in January, 53,897 in December
and no more than 39,095 In November.
This rate of resumption of the gold
output means much to the foreign
financial world and indirectly to New
York, while It is called upon to sup
ply European deficiencies due to the
cutting off of the South African sup
ply of gold.
The calmness of the Londou market
led to some covering by shorts In this
market, which were put out late yes
terday in hope of covering at a profit
on London selling this morning. There
was a renewed movement in some ot
the minor specialties which have been
the favorites for some time past.
The news of the deposit at the sub
treasury of $1,250,000 in gold for tele
graphic transfer to San Francisco In
connection with the traction merger
there, called renewed attention to our
own domestic money market situation.
The selling movement which followed
threw the market into irregularity for
the rest of the day. The earlier gains
were generally wiped out by the first
selling on this news, there were some
subsequent recoveries, but the market
closed heavy In tone and without ani
mation. Without counting today's
transfer to San Francisco, the mar
ket's loss to the sub-treasury since the
last bank statement, counting the Sat
urday shipments of gold for which pay
ment was made to that institution,
amounts to $4,581,000. The rate for New
York exchange at Chicago, however,
which has been at a discount, rose to
par. But foreign exchange rates,
which were easy yesterday, steadied to
day and the question of additional gold
exports is thereby reopened.
Of the day's special movements, that
in the Colorado and Southern stocks
continued notable. Manhattan was
