COtton Letter

By Private Wire to T. G. Hewlett, Agent.
 Birmingham, December 16.-Cables were about point lower and the feeling favored some realizing reactions. Opening here was unchanged to 1 point lower. There was some selling around the opening, but it was eagerly absorbed without disturbing prices. Later cables showed more strength, and port receipts were 10000 below those of last year. This had a strengthening effect and the market remained steady to point ad- vance. Trading was fairly active. As the holidays approach there may be some little reaction. but public at large have turned bulls and predictions of much higher prices are heard on all sides Close was at nearly lowest prices for the day.

 New York December 16.-The trading to- day resulted in only trfiing changes in prominent stocks. The speculative public of England was active on both sides of the market with purchases on balance slightly fin excess of sales. The trading locally was less active than of late but very strong undertone was in evidence. The traders seemed largely on the short side, while there was buying by commission houses and pool support Speculation during the fore noon was very regular, but variations gen. erally were not significant except in a few cases. The market became dull with the cancellation of orders in commission houses. In the afternoon number of hith- erto neglected stocks were taken up and advanced sharply, Pittsburg. Chicago, Cleveland, Cincinnati and St. Louis leading with jump of 6A, but improvement was almost eradicated in the later slump, the revampng of the old story of Chicago and Alton passing into new hands was today connected with Union Pacific instead of Missouri Pacific or Michigan Central, as the former rumors had 1t. To this tale per- haps was due rise tn Union Pacific in the last hours, the bears ny concerted action reached stop loss orders and carried prices off from l to points generally. By de- livery hour the movement petered out and after period of dullness prices picked up dll around. NeWSpaper artcleS treating the sugar trade war as farcical resulted in sharp rise in the block at the opening. which was soon lost, the closing being at last nights figures. Rubber continued it's weakness of yesterday. losing 2 points. Brooklyn Traction was very strong, cross ing "A on intimations that a long expected deal in that property might be looked for soon. The Changers were very strong most of the day, but reacted with the rest of the list on the bear side. The feature of the bond market today was the enormous transactions in Baltimore and Ohio 31ss. The transactions that attracted consfdera- ble attention were of $513, ,000 and $569, 900 at 9S Intermediate transactions including many blocks of 100000 and over. The gen. eral tone was very unsettled with the semi speculative issues trending lower.

Good foreign orders were in market today, and export engage ments were also heavy. Closing cables were %d higher. Opening here was 4 higher and it was soon demonstrated that wheat was scarce in pit and bears tried to cover. this coupled with foreign and com mission buying caused quick rally of F cent, which was followed by further strength until 1 cent advance from the opening was recorded.
