New York, Jan. 2-The opening sales
OF sugar afford convincing evidence that
its friends have rallied to its support and
were preparing to contest the progress
which the bears have made in cutting
down It's price. Very heavy blocks wera
thrown upon the market at the opening,

The opening prices were the lowest. Az

the bears renewed their efforts to depress
It again, but without success. The resist-
ance shown by the stock caused uneasi-
ness in the ranks OF the unwieldly short
interest aud they started to cover. They
carried the stock up TO ll8, near which ID
closed. There was no further signs of the
acute weakness which was shown yester-
day by the local traction stocks and to-
bacco, which was said to be due to the
closing out OF an embarrassed account.
These stocks were under pressure during
the morning but they responded to the
recovery In Sugar and late general

ousy above last nights level. The relax
alton of the pressure on Sugar played no
small part in the general strength OF the

NAVAL STORES.

Spirits Turpontine-The position of the
market during the past week has been
very encouraging to the trade and gives
promise of bringing an exceptional i'm
proVement in values. For several days
the market was posted quiet at Doe, ana
as there were no transactions ut this fig
ure, 1t was the opinion in some quarters
that there would be a decline Factors
pulled together, however, by declining to
sell for less than Quotations. Toward the
latter part of the week sales OF over 500
casks were made, which gave the market
a decidedly hrmer tone, and started it
upon another upward tendency. Factors

business has been transacted AT the clos

COTTON FUTURES.

New York, Jan. 1.-THE cotton market
opened firm at an advance of 2Q6 points,
but business was not active, a S there We're
rumors of contemplated manipulation.
During the forenoon certain Wall street
concerns and Liverpool representatives
competed a little with local shorts, but
the demand was not active at any time,
and business gradually tapered off. By
noon most Of the improvement had dis
appeared under local liquidation in the alb
sence of outside support; but the local
contingent, while inclined to be little
bearish, on the apathy of the outside
traders, We're not all confident, in view of
the strong statistical situation, the small
movement of cotton at the ports and the
firmness of holders of spot cotton in the
more important markets of the South.
During the afternoon the market was
neglected until just before the close, when
there was a sharp rally on covering. The
final tone was steady, with prices 2 TO z

COTTON LETTER.

New York. Jan. 12.-Hubbard Bros &
Co. say OF cotton: The continued
strength of the immediate position in Lv-
erpool indicates the practical corner in
the January position there is not yet over.
Here the January delivery has felt this
advance through the covering of some be-
lated Liverpool shorts, which carried that
position to a premium. A marked abb
sence Of outside speculative buying caused
the slow break after the opening buying
by arbitrage brokers. Receipts are light
a. the interior towns, and the amount
coming into sight this week will be de-
cidedly less than anticipated earlier in the
week The trouble with the market seems
20 lie in the gradual liquida ton by the
outside interests which appear to be with
drawing from cotton, just why, 1t Is diiti-
cult TO say.
During the afternoon the market rail-
lied on ne small amount coming into
sight for the week closing steady. Europe
is expected to send better market to-

REVIEW OF THE MARKETS.
GENERAL CONDITION or TRADE
DURING THE PAST WEEK.

Values Moved Up in All Branches,
ana the Volume shows Up Com
siderabIy Better Than That Last
Near-Spirits Firm at 50k Cents.
Rosin in Demand at-the Advance.
Cotton Holds Its own in the Face
of Bear Raid-LocaI and TeIe-
graphic Markets.
savannah, Jan. Robustness in all
branches is very encouraging at present
as shown by the volume during the past
week. In every respect the week shows
up much better than the same week last
year, when prices of all products were
lower than they are al present, and the
amount handled considerably less Naval
stores We're probably never in better posi-
ton, or supplies in stronger demand. This
market moved steadily upward during the
week, closing firm to-day at 5015 cents and
yet the demand was the same Rosin also
moved up, and factors had no trouble in
dsposins of their entire receipts at quo
tations Cotton has held its own After
the unsuccessful attack on it, which was
made by prominent New York bears, the
opinion is that the strength of spot mar
kets is demonstrated beyond doubt, and
that the only thing between holders and
success in their fight for higher prices is
little patience. Produce was in good
demand throughout the week. The whole
sale markets We're active, but there was
no quotable changes. The following resume
of the different markets will show the
tone and quotations at the close to-day and
their condition 6uripp tho v,-aeIy.
