Raleigh. n. c., Dec. 14.-The market
wac active, irregular, uncertain and yet,
III things considered, strong as could be.
When it is considered that the price was
70 "a fer May on Monday last week. and
the week before that below 1t.75. some
dea of the strength of the market can
be obtained. Receipts at the ports
md interior towns were rather heavy and
this caused more or less selling. But as
heretofore. when selling tried to get back
heir cotton prices bounded upward. For
instance. Nav broke under heavy pressure
from 1881 to 1852 and then towards mid
lay reacted to 1915. From that point
there was a steady decline to 1887 and in
about ten minutes after noon the price
AN up to 1244 again. Weather in the
South, according to the map and predic-
lions is likely to be cold enough to inter
fere with the movement. As the market
looks there is nothing to indicate the next
move in prices. Should the movement
all off prices would advance again very
easily But in the meantime the heavy
receipts bring out more or less cotton
from holders for profits and this unsettled
Me tone. While commission house bust
ness has been enormous, it lis less this
week, ana the policy seems to be to take
profits on hard places for the present. In
view of the price and uncertainty as to the
size of the crop, this policy is to be com
mended We would take profits on an ad-
vance for awhile until the market shows
which way it is going to move next. Re
ports from the South indicate good bus
mess in spot cotton.
