on desire to even contracts before the
bureau report on Monday, which should be
bullish. One prominent house was a neavy
buyer The market became firm and with
out halt advanced eight points. January
opened at 64ac advanced to Acc, and {. os-
ed at 6,& to 6.49c, with the tone of the
market very steady. No important new de-

Tor cotton this week. Poor trade reports
from abroad and the anticipation Of an
enormous movement in the near future, to-
Sether with The indispOsition of spinners
10 buy freely at present prices, are still the
depressing causes On all sides we hear
the opinion freely expressed that there
may be a great advance in cotton later in
the season, but that a decline must surely
come first and that il is useless and I'M
wise to attempt TO bull the market until a
greater proportion of the crop shall nave
been marketed. 1t seems, however, the
rush of cotton sure to follow the lifting of
guarantees is having its effect upon the
market now and that when it actually
comes We will find it has been discount
ed. The facts that present themselves in
view of the situation now appear al
most evenly balanced for and against the
market. The determining element then
must be the size of this crop, a thing
about which no one at present can &peak
with knowledge. We believe that the
chances Cor the crop to be a record breaker
have disappeared We think the world is
over estimating its size. and we have faith
in cotton

NAVAL STORES.

Spirits Turpentine-There was not as
much life in the market to-day as has
been the case during the past week or
two. After opening at 90 cents the high
est bid made at the close was at nc de-
cline. The reported sales were light, as
the factors regard the undertone of the
market firm, and some refused to sell at
the decline.
At the first call, at the Board of Trade,
the market was bulletined firm at 32c,
with sales of 100 casks At the last call
a 1:30 o'clock p. m, the market closed
at 31Ac, with sales of 800 casks.
Rosin-The market advanced on pale
and declined on common grades to-day.
There was a good demand and the sales
were quite large. At the first call at the

firm and unchanged, with sales of 1916
barrels. AT the last call at 1870 o'clock p.
m, the market closed firm at &c advance
on NJ, N, window glass and water white,
