SPIRITS. Transactions OF round lots
were reported at both the opening and
closing calls at the Board of Trade to-
day, and the aggregate sales being 3,2s7.
The largest buyer was the tank company,
whose takings were probably larger than
they have yet been for any single day =.
Whether the market would have yielded
had not the company taken over large
portion Of the offerings is not known, but
the relief impaired certainly placed the
market in more favorable position to
resist decline. Exporters are reported
to have bought sparingly. The opening
was firm at 341ac, with sales of 1,2i9, and
the closing firm and unchanged, with
sales of 204S. The receipts were 1883,
and the exports 352.
ROSINS.-An advancing tendency was
shown in the rosin market to-day as a
result of a wholesome demand from sew
eral sources, thereby carrying prices up
from &c to Toe on several grades. The
opening was firm at an advance of 10 on
w. W., &C on window glass, 10c on K and
lOc on /. No closing sales were reported.
For several days past the improvement
has been spotty, with the advances in
proportion to the demand for the several
grades. The receipts were $3.50. and the
exports, 40. Prices as follows.

THE RICE MARKET.

Between Independence Day and the u.s.
ual indifference pertaining to a holiday
period the demand was interfered with,
y but a land-off1ce business on the closing
day brought the volume of the week
nearly up to the preceding one. Open or
ders and requests for samples are COM
ing in freely from every quarter for
which this is the natural base of supply.
In the main. holdings throughout the
trade are light, and while there is a con-
sentative temper, the aggregate move
ment for the season promises to be ex-
ceptionaly large. Stocks at this point
are beginning to show depletion by brok-
en- assortments, and the question of re-
supply imminent. The patronage is
pretty evenly distributed over all the re-
spective sorts in domestic and foreign;
prices firm with fractional advances in
fair to good Japan.
Advices from the South note steady
movement, restricted supply and full
values along the Atlantic coast; In New
Orleans and at interior points in the
Southwest, there is a continuation of for
mer large volume of business. Recently,
there has been an added call from the
Far West, which, with that from the
general distributive demand and Porto
Rico. makes up a volume far in excess
of that which prevailed during similar
perlod Tor several years past. Inc SNIP
ments to Porto Rico alone. last week
exceeded 10000 pockets and orders are
now being filed against shipment for the
next steamer, which sails from New Or
leans the latter part of the present
month.
Reports concerning the new crop are
more encoura ging; there have been gen.
eral showers throughout Louisiana, which
have proved very beneficial. The Mssls-
sippi district is full of promise and the
outturn is likely to be considerably In
excess of any recent years.

New York, July 1.-THE market opened

1t was evident that until we should have
conclusive evidence at Texas that rains

heavy that bulls were not going to aban-
don their position. The talk of a crop Of

years. Conceding that July so far has

New York. July 11.-Cotton values to-
Day were irregular, early advancing SOIL
points, subsequently reacting fully and
still later working UP again, with fiuctua-
lions in the last hour very nervous. Liver
pool did not fully respond to our decline
OF yesterday and the weather reports did
not show any general rains in the South
west. This tended to discomfort shorts,
and on the call prices were unchanged to
3 points higher Soon afterwards values
advanced to 7.S0c for August; 764c for Oc-
tober and 1860 for January. But after
the first hour talk of heavy rains over
Southern Texas started liquidation and
short selling on large scale became pop
ular. Under this pressure and absence
of outside support prices went to about
last nights final bids.
A forecast for generally fair weather
over Texas, Oklahoma and the Indian
territory then rallied prices sharply, af-
ter whichs the course of the market was
erratic. Trading was very active in the
morning, but fell off to a nervous pro-
fessional business after midday. Senti-
ment at the close was mixed Closed

siderable resistance. and opening losses
were very fractional. There was an early
display of weakness among the coalers
in sympathy with the depression else
where. London prices came substantially
lower, and the market for Americans
were reported to be quite wild. The Bank
