COTTON FUTURES.

New York, Nov. 25.-The cotton mar
ket opened steady with prices points
lower to points higher, and immediate
ly turned firm on a scramble of shorts
to cover. At the beginning of the call
the room was bearishly influenced by
weakness in Liverpool, but before the
call adjourend light interior receipts
and short crop estimates from the
South turned the tide of sentiment in
favor of cotton. January advanced to
1910 on buying for both accounts.
Business from the outside public, how
ever, was not large enough to keep
the market up, and by midday prices
had slowly settled back to Saturdays
final bids. Whereas port receipts were
moderate the interior towns fell far
short of equal date last year The
weather South was genarlly fair, but
temperatures continued very low over
! important areas. In the afternoon the
market was dull most of the time, but
steadily held on scattering demand
from room shorts and absence of bear
pressure. Prices kept within a point
or SO of Saturdays closing. AS an
offset to a light estimate for to-mor-
rows Houston receipts, New Orleans
arrivals were predicted to be large
considerably over last years. The ex-
port movement exceeded the total re-
ceipts by a large margin. At the close
the market was quiet and net one to
two points lower. having eased off a
trifle under light selling for profit by
room operators.

STOCKS AND BONDS.

New York, Nov. 25.-From- general
strength during the early part of the
day, the stock market gave way to
general weakness before the close and
ended under active selling pressure,
with only such recoveries as were due
to the hasty taking of profits on the
short side by the bears.
1t was notable in the early strength
that many stocks responded very mod
erately to the buoyant rise in the
leaders. The general break at the last
was effective throughout the list, but
it left the leaders of the advance with
considerable net gains to show, The
trunk lines were the effective leaders
of the advance, especially New York
Central, which added 4h to its recent
remarkable advance. No news was Of
fered to explain the advance beyond
the many rumors long prevalent of a
Vanderbilt deal The movement in the
Pennsylvania was clearly a supple
ment to that in New York Central and
was in the hands of professional spec
ulators who saw the force of an argu-
ment for the maintenance of an APP
proximate ratio between the tive
stocks. Pennsylvania extreme ad-
vance was ga. The late reaction left
net gain for New York Central of
rise in New York Central carried with
it the junior Vanderbilts to the extent
of from 15s to 10 points, the latter fig
ure for Michigan Central.
There was enormous buying of the
Readings and of the Southern Railway
stocks, but their advance never much
exceeded a point. A factor in the open
ing strength was the scramble on The
part of the bears who went short of
Amalgamated Copper on Saturday on
the report, denied after the market
closed, that the Attorney General of
the United Safes was preparing case
against the company under the anti
trust law. The opening rush carried
the stock rs over Saturdays closing
level and this proved the highest point
of the day. The palpable indisposition
of the stock to rally further invited
renewed attack. The final slump TO
below so was the principal unsetthng
factor of the trading throughout in the
general list. The stock touched T9A
and closed at so. The heaviness Of the
trans continental stocks was a feature
Of the trading throughout.

ed to pay higher prices for these stocks

ers, but 1t was not more than is usual
in the progress of a bull market. There
was no change in the situation in the
money market. Foreign exchange con-
tinued to drop away from the gold eX
port point. A deposit at the sub-treas-
ury of 100000 for transfer to New Or
leans had an unpleasant effect on the
confidence which has been felt that the
interior requirements for currency were
satisfied for the season and that funds
would flow back to New York from

cept for the strongest stocks, the weak

Murphy 4 Co.'s Cotton Letter.

New York, Nov. 25.-The receipts of
cotton are running too light entirely to
confirm big crop views, and the conse-
quence is people hitherto entertaining
extravagant notions have changed
their tune, and are now generally aban-
doning anything near 100000 as the
probable yield. But the figures of the
government to be published a week
from tomorrow will be accepted as a
good index and pending their receipt
trading is dull and people hesitate.
Opening to-day was generally a shade
higher except December which was
pressed for sale causing three points
loss The receipts for the day at all
ports promised to reach only $4,000
against $4,000 last year. An increased
demand for account of continental
spinners was reported at Liverpool to-
day. New Orleans was closed, and this
limited business in the local market.
Gables were one point higher. Cold
and clear weather prevailed in the
South. Bullish crop news was the rule.
The average estimate of 10,560, 900 made
by 1876 members Of the Memphis cotton
exchange is considerd fair one. The
lowest estimate was $500, 900 and the
highest IL, 200 900 bales. 1t may be seen
that around 9,500,000 is at this time re-
garded as a very good guess for the
crop considering the claims on one
side OF considerable back, and on the
other side of the frost having ended the
growth, and shipments being made
with the usual promptness. A leading
railroad running through Texas re-
ports 900, 900 shipments so far, $4,000 on
hand and 100000 in sight, making
total of 1,021 200 so far handled and ex-
pected to be handled for the season
against 1.2s9,000 last year showing a
decrease of 20.76 per cent. from last
year. One prominent local concern has
figured the total crop down to fine
point. and name 10, 1SS, 900 as the prob
able figures for the total yield.
The Savannah morning news., 1901-11-26

without change of moment in the mar
ket. The home demand for brown cot
tons has again been light and no bust
ness reported for export. Orders for
bleached cottons are limited and coarse
colored cotton are quiet. Prices steady
throughout. Print cloths continue in
active at previous prices. Prints are
quieter than last week and no change
in prices. Ginghams firm.

New York, Nov. 25.-Foreign markets
rallied to-day from the depression of
Saturday but the difference between
Liverpool and New York is now small
err than at any time this season.
Transactions here have been upon a
very limited scale, advancing from the
opening and subsequently losing most
of the improvement. Houston showed
up heavy as compared with last week
confirming the report of an increased
movement in Texas. II is understood
that there was again heavy offerings
of cotton exchange bills in the market
to-day. Some little selling by spot
houses against cotton coming here for
delivery the new feature.
Local sentiment remains very bullish
and the trade Is confidently looking
forward to O bullish crop estimate by
the government. The members OF the
Memphis Exchange estimate the crop
AT 1860 900. Last year their estimate
was 100000.
