Nov. 27.—Although more fu- vorably Impressed with the course tlmt the -American markets have pursued, t foreign market fulled ngnln to furnlsb full response to our anvuuee of yester day. Options closed 4Q5 points,higher .than on the previous day. While spot quota tlotis showed tin advance of 13 points, with salts of only 6.000. Thp first wunlng plgns of the decreasing demand* for cotton w ~ fully reflected In the lower prices for c tracts In today's session. Thursday be a holiday, but two more market days main In which November commitments i to be fulfilled. With this Influence tern porarlly over, nnd December forward ship mont* In n Jarge men sure provided for, ow- lug to the fear Hint the present ndvntic would prove more extensive, iintumll; creates the belief that, for n while, at least the market’s support must come from oflm. sources than an Insistent deuinild for •cot ton. Then, the weight of the movement which. If the dearer wenther promised Is realized, should be less restricted than now seems to be the case, would, lit all proba bility, niter somewhat the sentiment that has materially nUlml the present advance. New York, Nov. 27.—The market wr strong today, without great activity nml support appeared liberal In most important directions. Rending nnd Copper were early marked for an advance, and the Union Pacific annual report was made the basis for good buying of these aborts, which encouraged activity throughout the list. A report was tmhllshed of a possible Issue of Great Northern stock In the shape of bonus or dividend. While there w nothing decisive In the trailing Unlay, tin n manifest jUspysitlmi - on , the part 'perntors to make long cumulitmeats more freely than recently in evidence. The near future of the money market gives »soine definite promise of becoming easy. It Is Iwdleved that, owing to the polh*.v of American financiers not realizing on foreign balances recently established through e* mcrclnl sterling, that the Bank of Fug laud will be In a’ posit Ion to redufe their rate of discount during December; per ha Just of ter the next fortnightly sett! meat.
