New York. Dee. 27.--Thc market for
dry goods reopenod after the holidays
with n quiet spot business in progress
in cotton goods and moderate business
through mail orders. This had no effect
upon the general tone which continued
strong. Stocks are in such excellent
shape, as rule, that sellers are under
no pressure to look for orders. Regu-
lar print cloths are strong ar 2aS and
wide odds have advanced to the basis

COTTON.
New York. Dec. 2T.-Upon the re-
sumption of business at the cotton eX-
change today, it was soon discovered
that orders were very scarce. The local
contingent were practically in possession
without much in sight to stimulate them
to activity. The English cables We're
disappointing, especially as TO the amount
of spot sales at Liverpool. The indiffer-
ent character of the foreign markets for
cotton futures also acted rs damper
to speculative energy here. Our market
where from / point higher to l lower.
The lstless character of the trading
which marked the opening call was
scarcely improved upon for the rest Of
the session. The entire range of the
market for the session was only mat
ter of five points. A few ventures, on
the long side of the account. were made
ON generally firm reports received from
Southern spot markets, in connection
with the continued heavy exports, and
also stimulated by continued favorable
accounts from dry goods markets and
spinning districts as TO the outlook fol-
the distribution of cotton goods and the
consumption of the raw material in this
cuntry. The fact that outsiders failed
TO take any interest in cotton to speak
of, however. led to some liquidation Of
long contracts, and from an advance of
8 to points on Fridays closing prices
the market here eased off under liauida
ton and closed steady with prices I'M

cialiy st. Paul, where the gross increase
was over S175,000: Saturdays good
bank statement and continued ease in
the money market. Moreover the advance
in Americans in London had stimulat-
ing effect, although later there was mod
crate selling from that quarter III al
vance here. There was continuation
of the tendency to discount January
dividend disbursements, larger pro
portion of which will remain in this
country than hitherto because of the
absorption of large blocks of interna-
tionals formerly owned abroad. The
Changers were more largely traded i'll
than of late at advancing prices, Rock
Island making an extreme advance OF
8 points, St. Paul Us, Burlington III
and the others point each. Orders to
buy accumulated over the holidays
caused wide opening in American
stocks. American steel and Wire
stocks rose about s points and retained
the greater part of the advance. Fed
eral Steel also, both common and pre-
ferred, was up over , points and cased
off somewhat. Peoples Gas and Brook
Ign Transit were very strong, the latter
on the theory that there would be an
announcement in January of the con
sofidation of competing lines. Sugar was
an exception to the general strength be-
cause OF the reported complications IN
the trade due To sales direct to the re-
tailers by the independent companies and
a reduction in the price of the refined
article. The stock lost points at the
opening, rallied slightly and closed lit

well distributed. The Improvement in
railroad quotation was from / to =

counts and profit-taking were at times
responsible for fluctuations downward,
but the tone throughout was conhdent.
Among the many reasons to account Tor
this were favorable traffic statements

TOPICS or The DAY.

Colonel John Richardson writes
from Washington that there is no
possibility Of the annexation resolu-
ton being voted on before Decem-
Der next; and then, he says, there is
not a ghost OF show Of its being
carried.
The Independent. [volume] (Honolulu, H.I.) 1895-1905, 1898-06-17

News may reach us one OF these
days, that the Spanish Admiral and
his feet are not at all "bottled up"
in Santiago, but will make an unex-
pected appearance in some other
spot OF the earth. The messages
from the Spanish Admiral to Admi-
raj Sampson may be ruse simply.
The Spaniards are up to all kinds Of
tricks, and it may be their policy to
hold the Sampson squadron tied up
outside Havana, while a blow is
stricken in different part of the
globe. To decide this vital question
the American fleet should enter the
harbor and find out positively,
whether their braves are really
blockading a Spanish fleet or simply
guarding an empty rat-trap.
