When the big speculative market at
Neu York reopens tomorrow it will
ha expected to respond to the advance
established to-day by spot holders in
Tho South. They were unwilling to sell
tor other than shade better on pre-
,,ious prices, and in the absence of
willingness to pay this little business
WAS done. If an explanation of the
6rmness of spot holders were sought
HE 10 the fact that there Is no scare
among them. This has been thoroughly
demonstrated repeatedly this season
bv declines which would ordinarily
start holders to dumping cotton upon
the market in volume disastrous to
prices.
Spots to-day were firmly held, with
sales by factors of 1853. In the coun-
try the feeling was buoyant, and hold
ers raised their ideas considerably. An
increase in receipts at the ports had
nEdepressing effect.
Turpentine market closed firm, with
the demand fairly good. Resins closed
firm and in demand, with all the offer
ngs taken. The following resume of

MARINE INTELLIGENCE.
Local and General News Of ships
and shipping,


There are still indications of ar early
increase in the coastwise movement
of yellow pine lumber as result of
the better facilities for work at the
mills. 1t Is confidently expected that
the next few months will witness large
exports, for which numerous charters
are now being made by local exporters.
1t Is claimed that one of the reasons
for larger exports viii be the ability
of the mills to get more and better
labor than formerly, owing, to the re-
stricted operations on turpentine
farms, which calls for fewer men than
at this time In past years. AS a gem
eral thing this season witnesses a
clash between the lumbermen and the
turpentine interests for labor. Since
the lumbermen are having little or no
difficulty in obtaining labor, 1t is ex-
pected that mills throughout this sec
ton will continue to operate on full
time, and turn out an immense lot of
stuff. TO the demand will be added
that for rebuilding at Paterson, N. j.,
where fire recently destroyed many
buildings.
An old shipping man said yesterday
he had not seen a Scandinavian vessel
In port for over ten years. In years
past 1t was common to see them tied
up along the docks.

Mr.. PRICE ON COTTON.

New York, Feb. 1.-THE New York
Cotton Exchange has been closed to-
day. but the Liverpool market shows
an advance of about five-siXty -fourths
which is the equivalent of Is points in
American money. Port receipts for
the week thus far are 10000 bales but
exports are 1000 bales and the ex-
cess of exports for the entire season
as compared with last year now close
ly approximate 100000 bales. This
rapid depletion of the supply available
for America is certain to result in a
scramble for cotton later on that will
enable holders to obtain for it almost
any price within reason that they
choose to ask. kilograms from Fall
River state that M. G. d. Borden has
taken all the print cloths that can
be bought there for delivery to the
end of April at 3hc, which price is
now freely bid At this price for the
product well managed mills can easily
afford to and will pay nine cents a
pound for cotton.
British Board of Trade returns for
January show an increase of III per
cent. in English exports of cotton
yarns in the exports in the cloth as
compared with last year, and cables
from Bombay say that East India,
Chinese and Japanese spinners are
rapidly increasing their consumption.
Require 100000 bales out of a total
East Indian crop of 1900, 900, leaving
a surplus of only 200, 900 bales for ship
ment to Europe, against $4,000 last
year. Southern letters and kilograms
are all confirmatory of my views as to
the crop and it is my confident belief
that the amount of cotton now coming
forward, whether it be large or small, is
of no Importance as 1t is simply sub
tracted from a crop already short and
a supply entirely insufficient. Every
bale that is left is increased in value
by every bale that is sold and all the
cotton that has been produced will not
satisfy the worlds consumption at
present prices this year.

II. a n. neer's Cotton Letter.

New Orleans, Feb 12.-Notwith-
standing yesterday was "Mardi Gras'
and the future business was suspended
here, there was a considerable curb
trading, May selling as low as II, and
as high as 26. Liverpool advices to-day
We're favorable, consequently our mar
ket opened IL to 10 higher than Mon
days closing, improved to 4 addi-
tional on fresh buying, eased off later,
making the gain 13 to Is points since
Mondays close. Port receipts for the
five days are $4,000 in excess of last
year. The semi-weekly interior towns
received 1900 against $4,000 last year,
and with the elimination of Houston
the other twelve towns show an ag-
gregate of $4,000 In receipts against
q, 900 last year. Considering the unfa-
Yorable weather which has retarded the
interior and port receipts the move
ment is larger than expected. senti-
ment, however, is very bullish; still
receipts will ultimately govern values.
