Morning News Office,
Thursday, July 17.
jhe dullness that has characterized
t te local cotton market for the past
w. ks was unbroken ygjsterday. No
l es were made in spot cotton and in
the f- o. b. branch there were very few
irquiries and still fewer sales and such
as were made were coasting freights.
The outlook for a good crop contin
ue excellent. Capt. T. J. James of
Adrian, who was in the city yesterday,
says the crop in his section is excel-
Knt. He himself has 1,800 acres and
taking 100 as the basis of perfect stand
Ms crop will average 90.
The New York future market opened
dull one point lower to 2 higher and
closed quiet and steady 1 point lower to
1 higher. The market was quiet in New
Orleans also.
Spirits had another off day also, the
market opening firm, but at half a
cent lower than the closing prices of
yesterday, and closing quiet and un
changed, but with x a doubtful outlook
for to-morrow as sales at half a cent
lower than closing prices were reported
ir. the late afternoon. Rosins opened
and closed firm, and this tone contin
ued during the late trading, after the
market had closed. A resume of the
market follows:
COTTON.
Spot cotton closed quiet and un
changed with no sales. In the f. o. b.
market there were some bids at 9 3-16 c
and some coasting freights were made
at that figure, which under the circum
stances really amounts to the market
price of 914 c.
The following were the official spot
quotations at the close of the market
at the Cotton Exchange to-day:

more than all else to hold the early
market steady and to disturb the
smaller shorts. The crop and weather
reports were summed up as bearish on
the average, while the official govern
ment forecast pointed to light showers
and thunderstorms only for to-night
and to-morrow. The spot markets of
the South were dull and unchanged
from yesterday: rather more hopeful
news was received as to the ruling of
the print cloth market in the East. In
the afternoon prices slipped back point
by point under profit taking by the
rtom contingent and a few outside in
terests who found buyers few and far
between. August eased off from 8.49 to
5.44 c, with other months following a
similar movement.
The market was finally quiet and
steady, with prices 1 point lower to 1
point higher. Total sales were estimat
ed at 20,000 'bales.

NEW ORLEANS COTTON MARKET.
New Orleans, July 17.—There was
rather more business done in spot cot

The cotton contract market is en
tirely featureless and even the

the opening October sold at 7.74 c and
December at 7.64 c, both figures repre
senting inside prices as compared to
last evening’s closing. After the call
trading lagged and up to the close the
market did not vary more than 1 point

Murpliy ft Co.'s Cotton Letter.
New York, July 17.—The lack of In
terest in cotton which has been ap
parent for several days was again
obvious to-day but the lull Is not re
garded as more than temporary. Cot
ton will be needed by those who re
quire it before a great while and no
matter how brilliant may be the crop
prospects a* heavy demand must set
m, so contend the bull faction; on
the other hand prices are so much
higher than last year that this fact
keeps buyers aloof. Some believe the
movement of cotton on a free scale
will depress the miarket and others
that the new cotton will be grabbed
up so rapidly by mills that no impres
sion on prices is likely to follow.
Meanwhile the new crop movements
are regarded as likely to show decided
improvement, the notion prevailing
that all the cotton raised this season
will be absorbed even if it should ex
ceed the old crop by as much as a mil
lion bales. Asa rule clear weather
prevailed over the South to-day. Dur
ing early June much was heard of new
cotton moving and latef on the talk
was July would show a heavy move
ment of new cotton, now it is said
that August will show the new cotton.
The fact that the crop is a spotted
one and more so than known for yearß
caused the claim that the crop will not
turn out as heavy as expected. Port
receipts to-day 2,500, against 8,000.
H. ft 11. Uetr'i Cotton Letter.
New Orleans, July 17.—Notwith
standing Liverpool advices we were
encouraging our market opened un
changed to 1 lower, but advanced 1 to
2 later on fresh buying. As soon as
this demand was filled values became
easier and sold off slightly until near
the close when they became somewhat
steadier, showing practically no
change from yesterday’s prices. The
weather is clear throughout the belt,
and the rainfall, which was very light,
during the past twenty-four hours,
was confined to the Savannah,
Charleston, New Orleans and .Oklaho
ma districts. There is, however, a
low pressure in the Southwest and a
high pressure on the South Atlantic
coast which is indicative of unsettled
and threatened weather in the South
ern States. The strength of the near
positions and the strong statistical cal
culations offset the favo?able crop out
look, and act as a deterrent to seller of
new crop months. For the moment
operators are apathetic and awaiting
developments before entering into new
engagements.
Hubbard Bros. & Co.’s Cotton Letter.
New York, July 17.—The dullness
and general conditions remain un
changed. Business is very quiet and
such small trading as there is, is local.
The market advances on any buying
ordets to subside on a seliing one. The
local trade waits some new feature
and the lapse of time.
DRY GOODS.
New York, July 17.—Dry-goods;
Home demand for cotton goods, while
gradually improving, is still quiet in
the aggregate. There is no phange in
prices of brown bleached or coarse
colored cottons. Prints and ginghams
are in average request at unchanged
prices. Print cloths are firm, but busi
ness mainly confined to wide goods.
Silks are firm with a better demand
than of late.

amongst the ferw stocks in which the
principal activity was centered. The
same preference was shown for the
low-priced stocks to-day, with the ex
ception of a speculative incursion into
the trunk lines and Vanderbilts. An
attempt was made to bring the specu
lation back into the high-priced rail
roads of the West, but it will be ob
served that the desire to take profits
on the considerable advance which
those stocks have had was still too
eager to allow much upward progress.
The United States Steel stocks re
newed the struggle to advance, but
again met very heavy sales at all
stages. Some of yesterday's conspic
uous low-priced stocks were' acutely
affected by profit-taking. This was
notably true of the Chicago and Al
ton stocks. The evidence of profit
taking in these and the sudden de
cline of over 2 points in Colorado Fuel
after a 4-point advance had a decided
ly chilling effect and put a sudden
stop to the activity of the market,
leaving it at a level, which fairly av
eraged below last night. The opening
advance in Colorado Southern and
Kansas City Southern was attributed
to the same forces, as was the Chi
cago and Alton movement yesterday.
These movements are supposed to sig
nalize the return of the Western con
tingent from the corn market to the
stock market. The tone of doubt and
hesitation shown in the market for
the July corn option at Chicago was
taken as a warning for possible specu
lative surprises. The check thus
brought about to the animation of (he
market was changed again by the
heavy demand developed for the Read
ing stocks and the coalers. This de
mand was undoubtedly based upon
the assumption that the coal miners’
convention will decide against,a gen
eral strike. Late in the day Chesa
peake and Ohio renewed its strong
advance to the extent of 2%, but with
out checking the selling to realize at
other points and making the closing
Irregular. Although there was sup
posed to have been an extensive spec
ulation upon the unknown chances of
the Amalgamated dividend, the decla
ration at the unchanged rate failed to
arouse that stock from the torpor in
which it rested all day. The day’s ac
tivity evidently represented the prose
cution of a regular campaign for an
advance which was based to-day upon
the absence of any unfavorable fac
tors, rather than upon any new de
velopments favoring higher prices. Call
money rates worked easier to-day,
and there was a diminution of the
pressure from the Interior for cur
rency. Sterling exchange maintained
its firm tone and time loan rates are
strongly held. The controller's call
Rahway.
