COTTON FUTURES.

New York, Jan. 4.-The cotton mar
ket opened steady, with prices 3 to 6
points lower in sympathy with weak
Liverpool cables and under tremendous
receipts at the Southern ports. The
cables were fully two points lower than
expected while receipts reached close
to $4,000 bales, against q 500 for the
same day last year. Shorts made the
most of the news and vigorously
pounded the market on the call, fore
ing March off to 1856 and May to 1856,
but just when everything seemed to
point TO still lower prices and to ad-
dftional shaking out of weak long in
tereSts, prominent room operators
stepped out into the open as advocates
of the market. Shorts made a quick
change of front and prices went back
to last nights bids in almost less time
than it takes to tell it. March jumped
to 7.94, and May to S.02 after which
the market backed and filed within
narrow bounds. Trading was active
from the start, with Europe, commits
sion houses and Southern interests,
room shorts and Wall street buying on
the decline and subsequent rally. Pri-
vate wires told of easier Southern spot
market and good weather for moving
the crop. The weakness in Liverpool
was attributed to the big movement
and severe breaking of American spec
ulative markets.
The market closed firm, net 2 to 9
points higher.

Murphy & Coz. stock Letter.

New York, Jan. 4.-The market In
the first hour was strong at moderate
improvements. The more important
demonstrations of strength, however,
were confined to the Industrials. Amer
ican Locomotive was very strong, and
also Distilling preferred. The gain in
both being referable to excellent trade
reports. United States Steels were
conspicuously strong throughout, and
established further advances from yes
terday's closing Amalgamated Copper
was slightly higher on the operations
of recently organized bull pool. In the
railway list, Erie and Reading issues
held well in face of large sales to lake
profits. The publication of bank state
ment was signal for attack upon prices.
Missouri Pacific bore the brunt of it.,
falling TX per cent. from the open
ing. Most of late recessions, however,
was fractional in extent and in the
dealings for the last few minutes some
rallies took place from the level of re-
action. The market closed fairly

STOCKS AND BONDS.

New York. Jan. 4.-The disappoint-
ment over the weekly bank statement
to-day made it difficult for the stock
market to make headway against the
selling to take profits. A good part
of the gains were wiped out after the
statement appeared, and some of the
weak stocks fell a point or more be-
low last night.
Realizing was in evidence from the
outset among the Coalers, and some
others but the heavy absorption of the
United States Steel stocks and rise
in Amalgamated Copper gave some
tone to the market. Copper promptly
relapsed and selling also met the ad-
vance in the United States Steel stocks.
The advance in the Copper stock was
based on the reported dissolution of an
injunction against the payment of
dividends by one of its subsidiary COM
panies. A number of low-priced in
dustrials developed strength during the
day. especially the producers of rail-
road equipment. st. Paul advanced
on it's increased earnings, fourth week
in December. The announcement that
this company would discontinue state
ments of weekly earnings gave rise to
some doubts among spectators over
the railroad outlook.
The bank statement showed an in
crease of only 3,457 800 in cash, which
was less than half the amount ex-
pected. The increase of reserve re-
quirements by the large loan expansion
more than offset this in the surplus
item which accordingly showed a small
decrease. Confidence in early ease of
money was considerably dashed by this
development. 1t was thought proba-
BILE there had been shipments of cash
to Cleveland to meet the exigency
there. Considerable attention was still
given to the Cleveland incident. Pre-
dictions among exchange authorities
that exports of gold would soon be
resumed, also disturbed sentiment over
the money outlook. The market closed
generally easy, but with some slight
recoveries from the lowest.
The bond market has been fairly ac-
tive, but somewhat irregular, and there
has been no striking investment de-
mand for mortgage securities. United

New York, Jan. Am the Liverpool
market prices were points lower in
sympathy with the sharp local de-
cline yesterday. Needless to say Eu-
ro2e as we'll as New York stands in
astonishment at the immense move
ment which has been going on for
some weeks, and what is more there is
no sign of a falling off in the near or
distant future. We do not wish to
discourage small crop believers, but
under the circumstances it looks as if
the trade has been misled by the re-
markable small estimates issued by the
government and confirmed by several
prominent local concerns. 1t is quite
natural that this view should now be
entertained since the movement is al
ready far in excess of last years fig
ures. whereas it was some time ago,
quite far behind. Until the figures
again drop behind last year, it is in
order to prepare for liquidations.
Prices, it is true, are relatively low,
but the market never fails to be in
fiuenced by receipts. no matter whether
prices are high or low, hence the fact
that prevailing prices are still 115 cents
under last year, will not help much
unless strong parties should come in
and buy on a very heavy scale of which
there is no evidence as yet. New York
opened to 6 points lower, but much
surprise was occasioned by the almost
immediate recovery of the market
which for the greater portion of ses-
sion was dull. Apparently there was
an exhaustion of selling orders, but
how long this would continue was a
question. Big buying of the Wall
street account, especially for May de-
livery, produced a better feeling and
some Improvement over yesterday was
shown before the close. New Orleans
expects tomorrow 14600, 16, 900, 1879;
Houston, $500 to 5000, against 9,431.

slightly easier later, closing at a net
gain of 8 points on the day. Port
receipts gained $4,000 over last year,
and the interior increased 5000. The
Monday estimate for New Orleans was
large, whereas the Houston estimate
was really the only point which was
somewhat light.
Reports, however, were received an
ticipating a decided decrease in Texas
receipts, and this combined with Hous-
ton, caused large purchases to be made.
1t is certainly remarkable that opera
tors should be guided entirely by the
daily estimate from Houston, ignoring
the heavy movement elsewhere, espe-
ctally when it is conceded by every
one that the Texas crop is from $780,
600 to 100000 short of last year. Those
who believe in a large crop expect the
Texas shortage to be more than that
east of the Mississippi river. These
tactics may momentarily occasion
spurts but unless there is sharp fall
ing off in the general amount mar
keted. it is questionable whether such
improvements can be maintained, in
the face of poor European textile trade,
and the spinner pursuing a hand to
mouth policy. Under these circum-
stances we again suggest that our
friends realize on their long cotton.

New York, Jan. 4-Our market

and 1880 and after selling at 1880
ruled at sos C at ii a. m. A decline
here at the opening on the heavy move
ment at the ports was checked by
large buying to cover and go long by
the concentrated interest which has
been operating during the last few
months their purchases were on such
a scale as to advance the market, clos
ing it firm at the best prices of the
day. Other outside interests were
rather selling than buying until the
lighter estimate for Houston was post
ed, which led to the strength at the
close. A sharp reaction was in order
after the recent break and it is ex-
pected to bring a higher market in
Liverpool Monday. The movement this
week promises to exceed that of last
year by 5000 bales. Receipts will gov
ern the course of prices from day to
day. The spot market was quiet and
unchanged.

Spot cotton closed quiet and easy
and unchanged to-day, with sales by
factors of 46. Receipts were 4,7S3,
against 2,162 last year. The ports got
$1,000, against Il 900 last year. The de-
mand was light throughout the day,
and trading was consequently back
ward. In the f. o. b. market the de-
mand was also light, and while some
business was done, the volume was
greatly restricted, owing to the unwilI-

prices. Cotton futures at New York
