Advance in Commons Took Place
in Late Trading.
A break came in the upward ten

day. for though the market holds the
price at which it opened, 5012 cents,
the tone had lost some of it's strength
in the afternoon. at the close, and
was quoted steady instead of firm.
Factors were not inclined to allow re-
cessions from the high water mark,
however. and all bids of 5O1l which
were current in the late trading were
refused. Some sales were made but
these were at the closing quotation.
The receipts were $40 casks, and the
shipments. 295. The New York mar
ket was dull at 5S1z cents while Lon
don reported 3s-3.

10 the builish news that had been
sent by Liverpool the previous day,
and talk of an advance on slight en-
enlargement, the local trade had ex-
pected that the English market this
morning would make quite firm
showing. Instead. Liverpool prices at
the hour OF the local opening were
70 points lower. and it was said that
the easier tendency was owing to SELL

people, who had bought here on the
day before. After the opening, how
ever, there was a considerable demand.
Spot houses appeared to be buying and
wire houses were evidently covering

DEMERE & HAMMOND'S


Daily Cotton Letter from New York.
New York. Dec. 22.-The feature Of
Liverpool to-day was the early weak
ness in the near months. as COM
pared with the steadiness in all later
positions. December-January was 5
points lower. while other months were
practically unchanged. or If anything.
q trifie better. this weakness could only
be construed as evidence that spinners
were not buying rs freely as had been
asserted yesterday. At one time dur
ing the morning there was a difference
of about 40 American points between
the Decem ber-J January and the March
April options, far more than the cost
Of carrying cotton over the intervening
period. At the closing. however. this
radical difference was readjusted, and
reduced to about 80 points. There was
A great deal of short covering IN the
market, taking down profits before the
holidays. In fact ii might be said that
the only buying came from this source.
Spots throughout the South were in
fair request, but did not show any inn
provement in prices. 1t looks as IL the
present hull in bearish pressure is due
70 the Christmas holidays, and it is
feared that when the market reopens
again on Tuesday, the old bear clique
which has taken profits within the past
few days, will be found ready to ham,
mer the market again on any rally.
The ginners' report is still to be met
and digested. and the opinion among
those who have lately controlled the
market. is that the amount ginned will
prove to be not below II 100000 bales.

by many to indicate more pressure of

Philadelphia people were buying heav-

that the hedge sales are being trans
