cothran & Co.'s Stock Letter.

By Ware x Leland.
 New York, December % 29-Pronounced strength was again exhibited by the stock market today and advances were scored in many departments. The absorp- ton was good but the steam cannot be maintained forever and a natural reaction would establish firmer foundations for further improvement. We believe the is- sues that have not advanced progressively should be bought on all soft spots. The undertone of the list is good and the fun damentals are responsible for it. Too swift a pace is to be depreciated and reasonable returns should not be ignored in our opinion.

The New Orleans Cotton Market.

New Orleans, December 29.-The spot cotton market was quiet; buyers and sellers continue apart as to prices Sales 230O bales including 300 to arrive and 900 fob terms; delivered on contracts, 400; quotations unchanged
 Futures opened steady with prices g to II points lower. Liverpool cables were dis appointing to the long side, as only slight advances were shown. Private advices from the English market were bearish; heavy American selling was reported with a general desire to liquidate. This induced free liquidation in the local market. Fresh buying time and again sent prices up to the closing level of yesterday, but each time prices went up, a fresh squirt of liquidation would follow. This caused rapid fluctuations. Prominent bulls were heavy buyers of March around 14 25. Soon after the opening March declined 15 points to 1424, recovered to IA 39 and fell to IA. 23. Similar fluctuations occurred in other po- sitions. Fifteen minutes before 12 o'clock the market took an apparently irresistible downward turn, which carried prices down until May had lost 75 points Or s3 75 per bale. Ia the trading, January opened Il points down at 1888, advanced to 13.S7, declined to 1928 and recovered to 134; March opened at 4.28. sold up to 1439 declined to 1870 and recovered to 13 90; May opened at 4.59, sold up to 14.67, declined to 13.91 and recovered to 14.1S, and July opened at 1473, sold up to 14.S6, declined to 14.03 and recovered to .32. The downward movement created panic and hundreds of longs threw their hold ings overheard. Prominent bulls came to the support of the market at the decline bidding for large blocks, forcing prices up IS to 27 points. The landslide is said to have resulted from a report that the meet ing of the English spinners had decided to run their mills on half time This re- port, however, was not confirmed. Aside from this weakness no trader could give any good reason for the break in prices. The market closed fairly steady, the net losses on the day being 49 to 54 points.

NET DECLINE OF 50 POINTS

New York December 29.-Opening weak, at an advance of 1 point to decline of Il points lower, the cotton market today ruled sensationally active with fluctuations that for rapidity, vio- lence, breadth and irregularity have not been witnessed before in the recollections of the trade. Cables at first were steady but later eased off under what was de- scribed as American selling, and after the local opening. prices for the first few minutes ruled weak under liquida- tion, showing at the end of the first hf- teen minutes net losses of about twenty to twenty-five points Following this the local bull leaders started buying, and prices advanced to about the final figures of last night. This was toward the beginning of the second hour ana during the balance of the morning fiuc- tuations while irregular, showed down. ward tendency until shortly after midday, when they were at about the lowest point, so far for the season, with March selling around 1891; May, l4ei and July, 1403 The market had rath- CT steady look around this level, when suddenly there came such an outburst of selling as has rarely been seen. in less than no time, prices were tumbling. July sold down from 1866 to 1850, in two sales, while March reached 1883 and May, 13.4S, these being net declines Of little over three-quarters of a cent. AL most at once, however. the big bulls started buying, the room executed right about, face" and within thirty minutes from the beginning of the de- cline, prices had recovered nearly half a cent of the loss. Then the market tanned down somewhat. and prices moved irregularly. The close was steady at net decline of fl to 5S points. Sales estimated at 100000 bales.

SCHOOL GIRLS.

School girls are proverbially
pretty. Fact is, it's a pretty
age-that time in girls life
when she has all the beauties
of womanhood without the
later lines of care and worry.
But here and there even
among school girls appear
pale drawn faces-a dizziness
and lack of freshness which
tells a plain story of thin blood.
Now this is not right. But
SCOTS Emulsion can make
it right. SCOTS Emulsion is
what these pale girls need.
SCOTS Emulsion brings back
the beauty to their faces be-
cause it is blood food.
