STOCKS AND BONDS.

New York, Jan. 21.-Today's stock mar
ket opened with the same listless tone
and dull business that have characterized
the dealings for some days past. The
first transactions showed a tendency to
lower prices but with no especial pres
sure to sell, and when support was af-
forded there was a general advance to
prices higher than those of last night.
In this movement, several of the special
ties rose several points or more among
them Sloss-S Sheffield Steel which sold 212
higher the advance brought with it a
falling off of the demand, but in the
absence of selling orders, the tone con-
tinued firm. After midda., the upward
movement of prices was resumed and
more than fractional gains were made in
the leaders. Whatever there was of
animation in the market was in the last
hour, when the buying was of more
vigorous character than for some days.
The favorable tone was maintained up
to the close, which was strong at gener-
ally the best prices of the day. The
market slowed a good tone, the business
of the day was not especially important.
the total sales being but a little in excess
of half million shares.
The impressive feature of today's gen.
eral situation was the check upon the ad-
vance in sterling exchange. Demand
sterling was quoted a shade under last
night while of equal significance, ster-
ling at Paris rose again, making a total
advance of u cent. since the first of the
week. These movements practically dis
pose of whatever chance there was of
oold and norris during the present week

Market Letter.

Especial to the News and Observer
New Orleans, La, Jan 21.-Early
Liverpool advices were better than look
ed for and our market in sympathy open
ed to points higher, but subsequently
eased off points on the freer port re-
ceipts and larger interior movement than
expected. Near the close a rally Of )
points from the bottom was established
on the steadiness of spots, making the
net gain 2 points on the day. Notwith-
standing the lull in speculation, preva-
lent for several days, the sentiment eX-
listing is very bullish. Purchases how
ever are made with the same degree OF
confidence owing to the liberal port and
interior receipts Every one seems ia
vorahle to the article in all speculative
markets and the general opinion is that
prices will go higher. After such sharp
advance a recession may take place owing
to the unanimity of optimism and an
absence of sellers which might pre-
cipitate liquidation should receipts ex-
pand The strong statistical position had
been instrumental in occasioning an adj
vance of over cent, yet buying is more
freely INDUCED in now than when values
were at their lowest level. When such
conditions enter the situation we sug-
gest operating conservatively. Receipts
will continue to govern the future course
of the market.

Especial to the News and Observer
New York. Jan. 21.-Either one of two
things is true about this market. Either
prices want to react and buyers are dong
their utmost to prevent such reaction
or the market wants TO advance ana
few sellers won't allow it to. From
all indications we can't help but thlnk
there is more truth in the trSt view
For several days certain rev nave
bought heavily, each night closing the
market firm Then Liverpool has been
supported and an attempt made to run
in shorts But May cotton at noon today
was selling but two points from the low
level of last Saturday and those sup
porting the market have a great deal
more cotton than at that time Receipts
are picking up al some points and we
begin to run against very light move
ment last year If the market keeps quiet
for another week we shall be inclined to
look for a very sharp break in prices.
The next ten days will be the trying
time. Bulls may be able to bring about
an advance over $50 and $50, or over
nine cents before the movement shNWs
up. We don't feel like advising buying
for such a furry We would rather
sell for profits now and run our chances
of getting it back lower, or taking the
short side on an advance next week II
the market does have a furry over nine
cents next week, there will be several
inducements to take the short side.

Cotton Letter.

Especial to the News and Observer
New York, Jan. 21.-In response to a
much better market abroad, an improve
lnent in print cloth and general support
here, the market today enjoyed great
activity at higher range of values. The
fluctuations were numerous and trading
very active with large buying by the
interests who have been prominent in
that direction recently. With the situa-
ton favorable to an advance and with
the movement not increasing as pre-
dicted, all that is needed to create higher
prices is general public buying or addi-
tional incentive on the part of spinners
and should the receipts continue about
as they are now the present demand for
spot cotton will hold the market firm,
reactions being small and very infre-
ouent. A more active market with in
creased speculation is anticipated for to-
morrow.

NEW YORK COTTON.
New York, Jan. 21.-The cotton mar
ket opened firm at an advance of to 6
points, cables being better than looked
for by about points. A further rise of
l to points on the more active positions
was followed by q decline of to I points
in view of larger receipts, as compared
with the movement of a year ago. FIR
q time liquidation was active and there
was some pressure in the WAY of selling
for short account. Again the market de-
veloped firmness and in the afternoon
rallied with the close firm at a net rise
of to 4 points. Total sales reached
225,OOO bales.
The late improvement was largely due
to strong accounts from the spot markets
of the country, with New Orleans repre-
senting an advance of 1-16c.. while most
of the other spot markets at least held
their own. The offerings of spot cotton
in the local market were only at very
full prices. although no change was made
in the official quotations and the ten
dency of the spot article was towards II
higher level, particularly for the better
grades.
