Paine, Murphy a co.'s Stock Letter

By Private Wire to Paine, Murphy & Co.
Birmingham, February 4-Stocks were
firm and generally higher during the first
hour; considerable investment buying. The
bull interests. represented by Flower and
Houseman, appeared with supporting or
ders and a happy time was predicted for
the bulls, but in the last half hour, on the
decrease shown in the reserve in bank
statement, there was sharp break. Sell
ing by the large operators who had been
the early buyers and a raid on New York
Central and Federal Steel common by the
manipulators also affected the market I'M
favorably. The closing prices were about
the poorest of the day. We are unreserved-
ly for the bull side of the market and are
certain that the public as whole has not
an adequate comprehension of realizing
There was not that precipitate throwing
over of stocks which characterized yes
terday's slump, and there was nothing in
the news of the day to cause nervousness
Buy the grangers, and especially St Paul
Buy and hold Pacific Mail Lead and Fed
eral Steel common.

By Leased Wire to T. G. Hewlett Agent.
Birmingham, February 4.-Liverpool ca
bles came about unchanged from last night.
Our opening was at an advance of from
to points, the range being very narrow
all day and the close practically unchanged
from last night. The statistical position of
cotton remains very strong and all good
opinions are to the effect that cotton around
present prices is unusually good pur-
chase. Cotton that is being picked at this
time is of a very poor quality. The poor
weather is having but small effect upon re-
ceipts, as all the territory throughout the
cotton belt is grid-ironed with railroads and
the staple is reaching the market promptly.
Today's receipts as compared with last year
show a decided decrease, and the excess
up to date is much smaller than was antic-
ipated. Buyers, who a few months ago
found little chance to realize, are
taking advantage OF the present strength
of the market and are liquidating freely.
which in a measure is responsible for the
recession in value at present.

Dry Goods

Drv Goods g
New York. February 4.-Dry goods The
significant change of the week has been in
the market for print cloths, which have
advanced to 2A cents for extra sixty4feur
squares. Other lines of staple cottons haze
been advanced, though not so radically es
print cloths. The demand has, of course,
been small. while these changes were In
progress, but orders previously received
which had to be filled were of sufficient
weight to keep stocks moving. The denfand
for spring lines of calico has been very
heavy. Cotton dress goods are in good
steady request at well sustained prices.
Ginghams, have held their own through
the week. The wooden and worsted goods
market has been steady one The OPEN
ing of the several lines of mems heavy
weights at advanced prices has helped the
tone of the market, but has had the effect
of making buyers cautious.

reported by all the banks. Special opera
tons and shifting of funds doubtless have
had much to do in bringing this about
Taken as a whole, the statement is favora-
bic. Never before have the totals ap-
preached such figures as are now being
reported, but despite the Unprecedented
expansion of loans and deposits the banks
are carrying s37 SIS idle cash and with
reports overbaiancing disbursements, there
seems 70 limit to their power to meet the
demands made upon them AS a matter of
fact, the New York clearing Institutions
have doubled their business in a little over
two Years and still have surplus reserves
beyond the average. The current state-
ment may have the effect of temporarily
stimulating the money market, but it is
too much to expect even with an expan-
sion in totals such as the weeks operations
reveal, that rates can maintain an ad-
vance. 1t will require a much more appre-
ciable reduction of surplus to bring about
a change of that character.
