Few Points of Strength in the
 Stock Market
so. RAIL WAY ADVANCES
Responds to Vague Assertions That the Seaboard Air Line Is In Way to Be Absorbed-The Bank
 Statement Favorable.

New York, November 4.-Tradlng III todays stock market was listless ana narrow. Operations were on too small scale to offer anything of a representa- tive character There were few points of strength, including Chicago and Aiton' on a revival of rumors. of it's possible ao- sorption as a connecting link in larger system. Southern railway advanced in response to rather vague assertions that the Seaboard Air Line was in way to be brought into the Southern community of interest The upward movement Tn Manhattan continued on the score of the increase of earning power through cleo tric operation as revealed by the last statment
 One or two minor stocks rose without explanation. The market as whole fail- ed to show continuation of yesterday movement to cover shorts and prices drifted rather aimlessly. The bank state ment proved decidedly more favorable than the forecast had indicated but new ertheless its publication was followed by a brisk selling movement which centered upon Pennsylvania. costing that stock the greater part of yesterdays gain Read Ing and Amalgamated Copper also lost more than a point, and the whole list receded to below last night. The decline In the cash reserves of the bank proved to be only g, 200 Yesterdays estimates Indicated an outgo for the week of s4'- 00000 without allowance for yesterdays nrrival of foreign gold to the amount of nearly s1,0000O0.
 The deposit liabilities of the banks have been reduced by 14,629.600, principally through the loan contraction of $10,240,5 300. The reserve requirement is thus dimin- ished to the amount of $S357, 400, leaving an increase in the surplus of s744 200. With the failing off of the movement of cur rency to the interior which has occurred, and the supply of foreign gold afioat for this port, the money market prospect reems to offer no occasion for uneasiness, without counting the likelihood of an unexpected reversal in the gold move ment.
 The market closed dull and heavy.

eaxter e Co.'S Cotton Letter.

New York, November H.-In the Liver pool market today prices advanced but a point. This was good enough when we remember that yesterdays rise there was a remarkable one Nevertheless, bears tried to make capital of the slight rise
 Bullsh sentiment is still general. Reac- tions are less frequent than usual but more violent changes and greater drops would cause no support. Numerous re- ports of better crops than supposed are being circulated. What basis there may be for these is not known. Disappoint- ed bulls are believed to be the originators of these reports, in order to get in and profit by the advance later on. Receipts are causing no concern except to bears who fear they may fall off considerably. owing to the rapidity with which the crop has been marketed What Ellison may calculate as to reduced consumption or what Fall River may do in regard to cutting wages will not add to the size of the crop or change prevailing sentf- ment, which Is still very bullish. Re- ceipts were estimated at 63,000. against 52,000 last year. Profit taking caused weakening during the morning and buy CTS failed to come to the rescue promptly.
 After losing 10 points the entire loss was wiped out Spot markets south were booming and local shorts bought heavily.
