We'd nsday, Jan. O.
SPIRITS TURPENTINE-Th s.rrpen-
tine market showed a stronger undertone
toward the closing to-day, and the cur
rent impression was that the outlook is
decidedly brighter for better prices. This
is pleasing to the trade at this time be-
cause of the low level the market had
reached, with no indications until to-day
of any check to this tendency. The open
ing was steady at 35 C. with sales of IT'S,
and the closing firm at 35c bid, with sales
of 464 The market was swept at the quo
tation, and the demand good for much
more than was available. The receipts
were 469, and the exports 425.
ROSINS-The rosin market closed firm
and unchanged, with no sales for the day.
The demand was light, and since the drop
i'm pales. there does not seem TO be any
great demand for either these or other
grades. Pales are understood to be pretty
firm since the drop, and further recessions
are not looked for. Mediums and lows do
not appear to be very strong, however,
and there are indications that discrimi-
nations are being made by buyers to test
the strength of these grades. The days
receipts were 1891, and the exports POI.

NEW ORLEANS COTTON FUTURES.
COTTON LETTERS

New York, Jan. 2.-Murphy & Co. say:
Cotton in Liverpool, as compared with the
closing on the 29th, advanced 1920 on
spots; middling, 17-32d. Futures at p
M about 4-64d higher, and further adj
vanced 3-64d, closed at net advance of g.
Sid to 7-64d. Advices from Liverpool are
much better than was expected started
rather general buying, both to cover and
for new account. Hence this market i'm
proved about IA points. Receipts az ports
estimated to-day $1,000 to $1,000, against
26. 500 last week and 81 goo same day a year
ago Interior movement is also small.
Semi-weekly receipts. 6S,7S5, against 1850;
Shipments SOL, against 42,31; stocks,
els. 1857, against 620,739 There was more
activity in to-days market than for some
time past. New Orleans wire holders ask
ing 3-16 advance for spots in that market.
The market again to-day received its prin-
Opal support from the local bulls in New
York and New Orleans who have been
predicting better prices after the holidays.
New York, Jan. Hubbard Bros. & Co.
say: sharp advance in Liverpool
brought buyers from the West and South
who anticipated a falling off in the move
ment which will bring Europe into the
markets as buyers. Local operators were
also free buyers, taking the realizing Or
ders, which We're met on the advance
The temper of the trade is to look for
a further improvement in Liverpool to-
morrow Receipts at the ports were CON
sidered to be light, Notwithstanding the
holidays, which naturally curtailed the
movement. 1t is believed the South VIII
be tenacious holders of their cotton, as
all expect reports to confirm this DISPOSE
ton on their part. The advance has point
ed more cotton towards this port, and our
stock is slowly increasing through the
maintenance of the January premium.

6770, and applying that to 6,551,O00 the crop
indicated would be 9,6765o0
The average percentage for the last ten
years, to Dec. 81, was 1923, and applying
that to 6,551,OOO the crop would be g.
461 ,220.
The average percentage of the last six
teen years, at the end of December, was
1.So, and applying that to 6,5SloOO. the
crop would be 9,1sl,5O0.
That the present crop shall show any
excess over 10, 900, 900 bales, is that the per-
centage marketed the first four months
of the present cotton season shall be as
small as it was last year, when, as we
have pointed out already, il was unprece-
dentedly small
Not for very many years has the incen-
tive been solgreat to market the crop rap
idly as it has been since Sept. l. last that
is, higher prices, and a readiness by spot
holders generally in the South to meet
the market.
Although our exports are $751; 900 bales
larger than 10 this date last year, Liver
pool stock of American is $4,000 bales
smaller and continental stock 2i3,0 bales
less than at this time last year. Ameri-
can afloat, however, is 246, 900 more than
last year, which leaves a net of $4,000
bales more taken by European spihners
since Sept. 1 last than during the same
period last year. And yet, Mr.. Ellison
says he estimates the worlds consumption
for the present season one million bales
less than last year.
The Financial Chronicle shows the total
brought into sight of this crop 6424, 494
against 5,792,025 at this date last year. The
worlds visible supply of American is g.
45S,0S3, against 9,66O,7l2 last year The
worlds visible supply of other kinds of
cotton, 6SS, 200. against 679,30O. The Liver
pooh stock of American, $4,000, against
$4,000. Continental stocks. 36S0OO, against
6l1,OO0. American aloat for Europe, 664 900
against Ais. United States port stocks, in

Local and TeIegraphic Markets.
The Morning News Office,
Wednesday, Jan. 2.
with the unfavorable weather the tur-
Dentine market acquired considerable
s,s,ngth to-day, leaving factors under the
,rnression that the probability of further
DECISIONS is less than it was on yester-
dav. The fact that a stronger undertone
developed was the signal for good trad
ing until the offerings were wiped up by
buyers anxious to lay in supplies for fear
the weather may interrupt the movement
materially. The opening ruled steady at
s5c, and the closing firm az this price bid.
Resins closed firm and unchanged, with
no transactions reported, and the demand
light from all sources.
Trading in the cotton markets was mod
crate due to the Discrimination of holders
10 sell an present prices, believing that
nary. The trade do not notice any great
difference in the offerings of cotton at
present and when the futures market was
fifty points below its present level hold
els were fully as disinclined to sell, which
is properly taken to indicate that they
hattar prinaSs for hot
Spinners seem to be about as Indifferent
about taking as holders are about selling,
so the situation does not, at the moment,
disclose any evidences of an early resump-
ton of active trading. If the price rises
enough for holders 10 get around 10 dents
for their cotton delivered at ships side,
a large element will doubtless turn loose
their holdings, and If the demand Is suffi-
clent to absorb the offerings, the part of
the crop at present in first hands may
promptly pass to consumers. Some en-
couragement was offered to-day in the rise
of 8 to 70 points in the cotton futures mar
ket, at which the tone was steady. Light
er receipts and persistent reports of re-
stricted movement for some time contrib
uted largely to the advance
Inc New York stock market was active
during the early part of the session, with
gains pretty generally through the list
Following the initial dealings weakness de-
veloped in Sugar, and when other stocks
sympathized, the bears apparently con-
cluded that the trumpet closing the bull
movement had sounded. They according
ly began selling, and this, in connection
with the liquidation that followed the
early advances and the weakness in Su-
gar caused a sharp reaction. St. Paul,
Burlington and the Pacifics were strong.
and closed at advances. The following
resume of the different markets will show
the tone and quotations at the closing to-
d9V.

New York, Jan. 2.-Business was resum-
ed upon the Stock Exchange this morn
Ing with the trading in immense volume
well diversified and with striking ad-
Vances, appearing in practically every
quarter Of the market In general way
1t might be said that the very absence of
any important developments over the New
Years holiday accounting for the ten
dency of the market and the trading pro-
ceeded. indeed, very much along the lines
that have prevailed since November. The
London market for Americans furnished
some encouragement to the local dealers
inasmuch as prices were shown material
ly above parity, and upon the opening Of
business here, foreign houses traded ac-
lively on the long side
The activity fin London was somewhat
depressed on account of the exceedingly
disappointing situation in South Africa
There was nothing in the known develop
ments over the holiday confirming any
OF the rumors which were current last
week regarding the further indication OF
control Of important railroad systems in
the Northwest, but the general convic-
ton that something of that nature is In
progress again contributed to active deal
fngs. Noteworthy features of this morn
ing's early dealings were Pennsylvania
the Ere and Reading issues. Missouri Pa
cihc, Southern Pacific, and Northern Pa
cifc and Union Pacific In the Granger
group, St Paul was conspicuously strong
on an advance of over / point and Rock
Island was also In good request. The
railway list continued altogether TO over
shadow the remainder Of the market in
respect of strength and activity, as II did
throughout last week.
In the Industrial quarter, Sugar was ex-
ceedingly active and was for the most
part strong In the early dealings. National
Tube and United States Rubber were also
strong Steel stocks were likewise steady.
The dealings In the local traction group
were only moderately active and no note
worthy price changes were recorded In
that quarter Of the market. The close was
irregular. Heavy decline in Sugar felt
all around. fractions suffered also. Com
mission houses taking profits buying in
ST. Paul and Northern Pacific considered
good on decline. Traders i'm room appar-
emily working for reaction. No sign OF
selling any large bull interest. Weak bull
account Brooklyn Rapid Transit. Stock
manipulated probably with object of shak-
ing It out. Good selling in Tennessee Coal
and Iron.
