Dec. 3.-Liverpool adVlces were more favorable than looked for, causing our market to open Soy points higher, real. izing shortly after occasioned a A., bear ar or I points from the top. but about this time the bureaus estimate of 9.674.ooo was issued Consternation reigned at such small onl- cial estimate being issued, the first transac- tion being AS points higher. but subsequently a break Of 10 points from the top -%as estao- lished.

MARKET FOR FUTURES EXCITING TIMES IN COTTON
 EXCHANGE. The Government Report Was Far More Bullish Than Had Been Expected and Prices
 Climbed Rapidly.

NEW YORK Dec 3.-The. cotton market opened firm at an advance Of 80 10 points. ana while kenerally higher than last night. was irregular all the forenoon IS the result of spaFms of buying en1 selling by nervous bulls and bears. Many operators devoted the enti; forenoon to readjusl.Ag accounts and to heds- ing. Receipts. cables and private wfe m formation from domestic points average up strongly buiish were the basis Tor the early strength Before noon July worked up to 7.67. sold off to 7.5S and subsequently, re- turned to 2. GA. The general opinion was that the Cover nment figures would be slightly ove' IO.o0 900 bales. but when the figures D. 674 900 were announced. wild excitement pre- vailed and a rush of shorts to- cover started. Commission houses with limited orders fought with the bears for cotton and by leaps and
 ourds p'icts juniped some 40GZ5 points be fore the demand was in any way appeased, and before bulls were content to :uln for profits December. January. March and May all sold at Sc. By | o'clock the bulletin board full to ovcrfowing and the additional boards. were brought Into use in order to re- cord the enormous trade in prog. e5s. Z he tuin for profits sent prices down some l2h T points, but lhter the entire market again was strong and worked back to the top figures of the day. Th new business done through com mission houses made it clear that the public was buying cotton Fear tthat Liverpool will come sensationallly higher tomorrow and that the South will refuse to sell the remainder of it's staple to domestic and foreign spinners, prompted local shorts to cover wherever op- portunity offered.

MANILA MERCHANTS PLEASED Decision of United States Supreme
 Court Hailed with Delight.

Manila, Dec. 2.-.The local newspap pers here published extras when they receiv- ed the news of the United States Supreme Courts decision n the fourteen diamond rings case, that the Philippines were American territory and that the imposi- tion of duty on articles imported into the United States from the Philippines is improper. Tho announcements caused great jubilation among the merchants and general public here. Representatives of the principal business houses say it will revolutionibe the entire trade of the Orient and the civilians and military men are pleased.
 The civll authorities think the law only applies to goods going into the United States and are awaiting an official com munication on the subject, since, if the decision holds here, new means for ob- taining funds to run the government will be necessary. General Luke Wright. the vice governor, thinks that a general re- vision of taxation is imperative.
 Spanish merchants are pleased, since Spanish goods have the same treaty rights as American, Tho collector of the port, w. Morgan Sinister. says it means returning the $7.oOO0OO collected in duties by the custom officials.

R. M. Scale 6 Co.'s Cotton Letter.

By Special Leased WmeI
 NEW ORLEANS, Dec. 3.--All other features in the cotton market ohscured by the bureau report today Liverpool was rather steady and furnished the incentive for slight improvement on this side, though early trans actions were characterized by indeclsion on both sides Timid operators liquidated and fluctuations were narrow until 1t was an nounced that the Government estimated the excitement followed in the rush to buy and an immediate advance of 46 points vas recorded Longs realized subsequently on liberal scale but the demand that attracted readily ab- rbed such offerings after slight reaction, sending prices up again. Closing quotations are about 4o points above yesterday
 It now remains to be seen if foreign traders will attach much importance 10 the Govern ments figures. Considering that operators abroad, including spinners. are looking for a yield ff the neighborhood of eleven million bales the bureaus 'estlmae may go to them in the nature of a revelation, and If any serious doubts are thereby created regarding maximum estimates of individuals, better trade demand should be observed with greater stimulating effect on prices.

WALL STREET REVIEW
MOVEMENT THROUGHOUT THE
 DAY WAS IRREGULAR
Slump in Amalgamated Copper and a Rise in Call Rates Unsettled the Market Late in
 the Day.

NEW YORK, Dec s.-Confusion and hesita- lion were reflected in the movement Of stock prices all day and the course or the market i.nsSsned % ReTs,s period " The during the morning was irregular but leaned to the side of depression. which gave way about midday to vf8erous upward movement, when the ab- stracts of the Presidents message made thelr appearance A slump in Amaigamated Copper market again late in the day, as was the case yesterday. The sympathetic reaction did not night. as will be seen by consultation of last prices. which show small net gains as rule. There was some recovery from from the ,ho lowest y., The early heaviness of the market was due to some continued uneasiness over the anti sage. The general tenor of the message has been pretty well understood for several days @ tents % had % been mostly mostly scconpIisSea before the publication. The tone of depreciation of the habit of appeal to hatred and fear in the pub dic argument against the so-calied trusts seemed to gratify speculative sentiment and to ameIiorate the stock market effect of the e to which followed the publication of the message or ,ss ost prSso,nent stocSs rising from to points over last night The sharp break in foreign exchange carried the rate well below Eien that further gold wsuld go out this week, This helped the midday rally in stocks al the most part. The rise to per cent again game late in the day and brought out heavy pfferings which forced the rate back to the low level of the day. Not much significance was attached either to the late rise or the subsequent relapse. Money was easier in Lon day, Paris and Berlin. and continental com petition for bills reported from London. Large applications at the ub-treasury for withdrawal of Government bonds on deposit to secure circulation is evidently preliminary to the offering of the bonds for redemption. The payment of drafts against deposits of several millions of gold at Pacific coast points Is still pending. The movement of Amalga- recovered quite vigorously in the morning, although the omission of customary extra dividend by one of it's subsidiary companies was not generally known when the market closed yesterday. The renewed break in the raw copper market in London to about Satur- days low level seemed equally without effect on the stock. The break in the lower deal exclamation, beyond the early unfavorabe de- veiopments which seemed to be ignored The stock rallied slightly and then became heavy again. but the general market closed nrm.
