Sunday— Turpentine Firm at 47%c.
Rosins Firm Local and Tele
graphic Markets.
The Morning News Office,
Saturday, June 7.
On liquidation the cotton markets
yielded to-day, though there was a
ipell of buying towards the close that
caused a very material reaction from
declines. It appears against the
grain for longs to swing to their hold
ings over Sunday, and particularly in
[ he face of unprecedently encouraging
crop accounts. With favorable weath
er a while longer the growing crop will
have reached a stage of development to
protect it against the rigors of weath
er or disease.
The rank and file of operators are by
no means enthusiastic on the bull side
and are inclined to look for only tem
porary rallies unless the crop is se
riously damaged or something else
transpires to give the speculation the
needed fillip, says one house. Without
such an incitement or impelling force
it is believed that the drift of prices
will be towards a lower basis. We con
tinue to advise purchases on breaks
and sales on rallies.
Turpentine has lost none of the
strength that has characterized It for
some time past. The article appears
to be in good demand, and so long as
present conditions continue a steady
improvement may be looked for. To
day's market closed firm at 47 %c, with
a fair business reported. Rosins closed
firm, with F 2%c and N and W G 10c
up each. The wholesale markets closed
steady. Resume of the markets as fol

H. Jt B. Beer’* Cotton Letter.
New Orleans, June 7.—Notwithstand
ing Liverpool advices were encourag
ing, our market opened 3 points lower,
and subsequently declined I@4 addi
tional. As there was a general dispo
sition shown to realize profits, the net
loss on the day was 2@4 per cent.
Generally fair weather prevails
throughout the cotton belt, but scat
tered showers are predicted for Okla
homa and the Texas Panhandle to
night and Sunday and over Arkansas
Sunday. The possibility of rain in
Texas, where moisture is claimed to be
needed soon, seems to have curbed the
enthusiasm of yesterday’s investors.
Spinners continue apathetic and the
movement is light. There is no ques
tion, however, that the flattering crop
outlook prevents outsiders from tak
ing hold for the moment, still with the
heavy discounts new crop months are
selling tinder the old, if any real se
rious drawback were to take place, the
chances are speculation would immedi
ately enter these positions and cause
a sharp advance.
Morphy A Co.’* Cotton Letter.
New York, June 7.—The cotton mar
ket was without special feature. The
Chronicle published some rather unsat
isfactory reports, but not enough to
warrant any radical modification in
private crop views which, as a rule,
are of the most satisfactory character.
At the same time the crop has been do
ing so well that It can do no better,
and the only change can be for the
worse, hen.ee we expect to witness a
more sensitive market for some weeks
than is usually the case at this sea
son of the year. No attention is be
ing paid to the movement of old cot
ton and everything turns on the new
crop. Numerous first blooms are re
ported, much earlier than last year and
some much earlier than the yeah be
fore, which, leads to bull announce
ments that an early crop does not
necessarily indicate a heavy crop, but
quite the contrary. In the early mar
ket to-day prices moved up just a
shade and nothing more. The market
attracted very little attention and
without fresh news is likely to keep
in a rut. Liverpool bought more or
less in this market which was a tame
and uninteresting affair. One firm took
little of January delivery, but other
wise, there was little or po feature, and
the market was of a regular half holi
day character. Estimated receipts at
ports 2,000, against 9,000.
Hubbard Bro*. A Co.’* Cotton Letter.
New York, June 7.—Our market
opened with sales of July at 8.75 c, and
after selling at 8.68 c, ruled at 8.71 c at
11 a. m. Although the Liverpool mar
ket advanced sharply the local trade
from the opening regarded the advices
as disappointing, and were free sellers,
especially the old crop deliveries. It
is a favorite straddle to sell the old
crop deliveries against new crop pur
chases in utter disregard of the demand
from spinners, and the small visible
supply which promises to decrease rap
idly. New crop were better sustained
in the absence of rains in Texas and
the Atlantic. In short it was a Sat
urday* market with the local traders,
evening up their trades at the end of
the week. Liverpool is expected to be
lower on Monday. Texas predictions
are for fair weather over Sunday. The
spot market was quiet and unchanged.
DRY GOODS.
New York. June 7.—Business in dry
goods has been on a limited scale to
day in all staple cotton goods without
quotable change ln prices. Print cloths
in some request at 3%c for regulars.
Prints sell more freely since price of
fall fancies was fixed. Cotton yarns
are in dull demand and weak and
irregular. Worsted yarns quiet, but
steady. Woolen yarns unchanged.
Linen and jute yarns firm.

STOCKS AND BONDS.
New York. June 7.—There was no
change in the several repressive influ
ences upon speculation in stocks to
day, and the market was practically
idle in consequence. The policy of the
large interests in stocks seems to be
defined as one of pertinacious holding
until the underlying strength of the
situation emerges from the present ob
scuring influences. Meantime, the pro
fessional operators are apparently un
willing to venture upon a campaign
against values.
To-day some influence upon sentiment
was exerted by the strike of the soft
coal miners in West Virginia by the
increasing difficulty of protecting the
anthracite mines from flooding by
keeping the pumps going with make
shift labor, by reports of too abundant
rains in the corn belt, and by the fail
ure of the bank statement to show any
recuperation in the percentage of re
serve against deposits.
While these facts had the effect of
absolutely killing and demand for
stocks, the selling induced was of
quite insignificant proportions, and the
light play between professional room
traders, whose attendance at the board
was reduced to a minimum, was all
that made the day’s market. There
was a lazy and halting advance of a
large fraction in Canadian Pacific.
Otherwise not a single leading stock on
the list varied more than a small frac
tion. The small decrease in loans by
the banks was insufficient to offset the
loss of over a million in cash reserves,
leaving the surplus slightly lower than
last week.
There has been some liquidation of
speculative bond issues and an irreg
ular tone in that market.
United States 2s registered, the 3s
and the new 4s declined % per cent.:
the 2s coupon and old 4s % per cent,
from the closing call of last week.
Total sales of stocks to-day were 56,-
100 shares, including 8,600 Canadian Pa
cific Railway.

New York, June 7.—A condition near
ly approaching actual stagnation pre
vailed on the Mtock Exchange to-day.
In the first hour no transactions had
been recorded even In a number of
stocks ordinarily classed in the active
list. The trivial fluctuations that oc
curred did not call for special com
ment except simply as a matter tf
record. The failure of indications of
a near settlement of the antnracite
strike and uncertainty over extent of
West Virginia soft coal strike and Its
probable consequences nullified the
favorable crop news and railway and
general businesa returns. The extreme
dullness could also be attributed part
ly to |a< k of definite indications as to
probable character of the bank state
ment. Htight fractional gains occurred
in the market in Missouri, Kansas sod
