profit upon the industry of refining.
Whatever may be the grounds of to-
days rumors, the shorts were thrown
into fright and rushed the price up
from the low point at 1885 to 1l31a. The
stock closed at 112A, a net gain of
60.
Amalgamated Copper, after sharing
in the heaviness of the early market.
also developed a very strong tone, add
ing to the sentimental effect of the
strength in Sugar. The price rose to
6s12 and closed only a shade lower at
net gain of rs. The quieter tone of
the London copper market, reports of
some large takings by manufacturers
and the strength of Rio tintos in Paris
on reports that an agreement between
copper producers was imminent, under
the pressure of the fall in price, all
helped the advance in Amalgamated.
The activity in the stocks of electric
manufacturing companies may have
been connected with the developments
IN the copper trade. Westinghouse
Electric was at one time up II points
and closed with a net gain of a.
The majority of railroads reporting
to-day gross earnings for the third
week in this month showed decreases
compared with last year, and this was
an influence in the early weakness, es-
pecially in st. Paul. That system,
Louisville, a number of important
Southwestern systems and smaller
railroads reported decreased earnings
The showing was ignored apparently
because of the very high level of earn
ings in the third week of December of
last year, which were some II per cent
over those of the preceding year, and
were notably heavy in the Southwest
and Changers became very strong late
in the day.
The hard and soft coal carriers were
active and strong all day, gains in
some of the leaders reaching between
and points and in Hooking Valley
4 points Money seemed to be in abund-
ant supply and confidence that it would
continue so added to the strength of
the market. There was reported from
Washington a purchase of $500, 900 of
government bonds from a New York
firm for delivery before Jan 1. It is
expected that there will be a quick and
a very large return of cash from the
channels of the enormous holiday
trade.
The bond market was moderately
active and firm. Total sales par value
81, 440, 900. United States 5s advanced "A

TRADE AND FINANCE
LITTLE SPOT COTTON BUSINESS
TRANSACTED By FACTORS.
FEW EXCHANGES WERE OPEN
GOOD VOLUME OF COTTON OFFER
ED FROM THE COUNTRY.

The Country Not Enger to Sell but
Usually Accepts Prices-Spinners
Likely to lie in the Market for
supplies shortly, as Movement of
the Market Seems to Confirm
short Crop Estimates.
The spot cotton market was closed
to-day. There was little or no bust
ness transacted by factors therefore.
In the f. 0. b. branch business was re-
sumed on a scale that would indicate
full-hedged operations on all the big
exchanges, few of which were open.
Cotton was being offered from the
country in good volume, and the fair
demand resulted in sales of several
round lots by brokers. While the coun-
try does not seem unusually eager to
sell there is willingness to let go
around prices, and a corresponding de-
sire on the part of spinners to buy. In
fact, it begins to look like spinners will
be in the market for large supplies
shortly, judging from the anxiety they
show at every move Of the market
that seems TO confirm short crop fig
upes. Fully good middling to-day was
s 7-16c, and good middling 5-16c.

SEA ISLAND COTTON.

In the sea island cotton market the
past week the demand was less active
than the week before, though a fair
business was done. The sales reported
below were not all by Savannah fac
tors, however, some of the amount re-
ported being receipts from the inte-
rior and also cotton which was held
here and applied by exporters to or
ders received by them. The develop
ments of the past two weeks caused
many holders to dispose of their cot
ton here or in the interior, and it is
said that after the holidays there will
probably not remain with planters
present prices. Close observers express
the opinion that after the holidays a
further demand from spinners may be
looked for.
