STOCKS AND BONDS.
Traders Were Unable to Induce
Movement in Prices.

New York, Oct. 21.-The traders in stocks
were unable to induce any noticeable
movement in prices during the two hours
of trading. Bears were inclined to attack
the Industrial specialtes when it became
evident that the bulls were not in an ag-
gressive mood. Sales for short account
were in evidence in the speciaities, some
of which dropped off a point or over
Realizing was also manifest in Pullman
and New York Cen raj. but the decline in
prices brought out no large offerings and
the bears had generally covered their con
tracts before the bank statement appeared
bringing prices back TO about last nights
level A nominal increase in the surplus
reserve was seized upon by the bulls TO
rush up the price of sugar in an attempt to
induce a following. They were as unsuc-
cessful as the bears and realizing caused
a reactionary tendency in the whole list.
which was very narrow in its activity The
closing, therefore, was easy at trivial net
changes either way. The main features of
the bank statement were a repetition of
those of last week. There is nothing in II
to encourage an expectation of easier mon
ey. but as last weeks similar tatement
led TO no renewal of the money stringen-
cy, the stock market was inc ned to the
view that this weeks showing might lead
to no worse result. 1t is puzzling 10 ac-
count for the greater ease which has de-
veloped in money during the past week in
the face of the loan contraction reported
by the banks of $5,3560OO. The stock mar
ket borrowers hope that money will cease
to flow TO interior points during the COM
ing week. There are intimations of some
large holdings of government bonds by
fdicuary institutions, the ANTICIPATED in
terest upon which win be applied for next
week and so be made available for the
money market. The market for bonds has
broadened out during the week and prices

throughout the fore part of the session
Unfavorable cables and an exceptionally
light movement fought for supremacy as
the dominating influence in the minds of
the local trade, but subsequent develop
ments were indicative of a confusion OS

a policy of contraction than expansion of

European advices were of a disappointing

per of the Manchester spinner who be-
lieves the crop is larger than the move
ment indicates. In our market Specula-
ton has been smaller. but a very steady
undertoue has been shown in sympathy
with the lighter movement, which bears
out the small crop views. disposition to

market though quotations were well main

terday at the close The trade rather
looks for little demand in Liverpool on
Monday, unless the unexpected happens in
that the South should show some DISPOSE
ton to accept profits on their cotton.
New York, Oct 21.-Murphy & Co.'S cot
ton letter says: With an advance of only
1-64 in Liverpool which was disappointing,
our market might have opened lower than
last night had the small receipts not off
set the Liverpool news. AS il was, we
opened unchanged with comparatively lit
tie trading Private cables from Liverpool
report Manchester spinners out of the
market this week, but would begin buy
ing next week if tempted by Light re-
ceipts. Private cables from the continent
report much the same, and the question is
whether speculation, based on small crop
ideas, can hold the market till Europe
comes in. Neil is encouraging them to
keep out on promises of a crop of 11,0O0 900.
Weather in the South is fine. On some
buying, after call, prices hardened trle,
but the demand is all for nearby positions.

THE PORT or BOTTLES.
A Peculiar Spot Down In the Car
ibbean Sea.


From the New Orleans Times-Democrat.
There il a dead spot in the Caribbean
sea" said the first officer of a Brazilian
ship, that should be called the port OF
bottles. 1t lies very nearly midway be-
tween Cartagena, in Colombia and K,.sg@-
ton, Jamaica, and at guess 1 should say
it was due east of Cape Graclas, Dios.
IT Is out OF the steamer tracks, and the
action Of the great currents going one way
and another has left space Of stagnant
water without any real movement at all.
Anything that gets into the dead spot is
apt to stay there unless driven out by
some big storm, and will simply drift round
and round and round, gathering seagrass
and barnacles.

the demand is given as the principal
factor in the advance in rosin. Lows have
been in strong request for some time past,
and have been moving steadily upward,
having gained 15c within the past three
weeks. They are wanted, and for that
reason the market is taking its natural
course under this condition of affairs.
The cotton market remained firm and
unchanged, with small transactions for
the day. Light receipts continue. There is
apparently nothing to give the situation

from New York were that the trade there

was offset by the advancing spot market

Spirits Turpentine-The market tumbled
to-day the close being firm at 40 cents.
The opening was quoted at 40 cents, but
there were also sales at 1910. which re-
lieved the decline. While it has been ex-
pected by the trade for several days past
that prizes would probably drop in response
to the seeming downward tendency the
market established, it is the current be-
lief now that the bottom has been struck,
and that present values will hold for some
time This view of the situation is
strengthened by the number of sales made
at the present quotation. There was not
a great deal of trading done during the
afternoon. and that done was on the basis
of quotations Buyers were apparently
satisfied. The receipts to-day were 1904
casks, the sales 1,535 casks, and the eX-
ports 1861 casks.
Rosin-Lows are attracting most atten-
ton at present, and as a result, prices re-
