supplies Is a result OF exports, and a
better demand from domestic spinners,
while 1t also appeared that the more
aggressive attitude assumed by lead
ing Southern operators recently was
leading TO apprehensions as to the po-
sition of the summer months.
AT any rate, the market almost at
Snce began to improve, led by the old
crop positions, which were in demand
by shorts and spot houses and while
the favorable weather accounts natur-
ally exeIHed a depressing effect on the
new crop positions, this was offset TO
some extent by further adverse crop
accounts as a result of the less favor
able climatic condition of the past few
weeks. The very light estimates for
the days movement were reinforced as
an influence by light estimates for
leading points tomorrow. and led TO
a belief in a very bullish into-sight
showing tomorrow
In addition to this very bullish mes
sages were received from New Orleans
with rumors of a corner in the May
position in that market but while all
these bullish items bad their effect
here they seemed rather to restrict
selling than to greatly stimulate de-
mand, so far as the old crop positions
were concerned. Price. however, con-
tinued to creep upward until in the
afternoon July was selling at 1880
and October at 11.47c, a net advance
of 10G19 points. Following these, the
market eased off a few points under
room realizing, and was finally barely
steady at unchanged prices to an ad-
vance of II points Sales were re-
ported of 300, 900 bales.

NO CHANGE IN PRICE OF PRODUCT

Continued Cool Weather Has the
Eject of Keeping the Receipts of
10th Resins and Turpentine Down
TO the MinimUm-BOth Markets
Are Considered Strong, and Fac
tors Do Not Look for Any Imme-
diate Decline.
Turpentine was quoted Fl m yesterd y
but there was no advance in price;
55 cents gallon being the official
figure quoted at the Board Of Trade.
There was but comparatively little
demand for the product, only so casks
being reported sold, and all of these at
the first call. The receipts of turpon-
tine were $50 casks, and the exports
800 casks.
Rosin: The mediums and commons
from F and below, we're advanced 8
cents at the close of the market. The
market is considered firm, at the adj
vance.
The sales of resins amounted TO l.
S9S barrels, receipts, 1924 barrels, and
exports 1870 barrels. Factors general
ly agree that the market, both in resins
and spirits, was never on a firmer
basis at this season of the year.
The continued cool weather has a
strong tendency to keep the receipts
of both turpentine and resins down to
the minimum.

Futures opened steady with prices l

DEMERE & HAMMOND
Say That There is an Evidence OF
Better Feeling all Around.

Savannah, Ga, May 5.-The total
port receipts to-day are 2,42O bales, as
against $3.50 last year; estimated re-
ceipts at all United States ports Fri
day. 5000 bales, against S.4O0 last year.
Interior receipts of this week, esti-
mated at $1,000 bales, being about one
third of the same last year. Insight
movement for week estimated about
$4,000 bales, against $1,000 last year.
1t is these figures, with the encour-
aging cable reports from Liverpool and
Manchester, and evidence of some bet
ter spot demand in Europe that is
soaring shorts, and encouraging in
Nestments in the near options. The
present United States stocks are put
at 900 bales, which is being fast re-
duced by exports.
Trade yet continues light, but there
is evidence of a better feeling to-day,
and the new crop months have been
in fair demand, but the local trade,
particularly around the ring, seem to
fight shy of July and August, appar-
emily realizing there will be a scarcity
of staple when those months come
around.
Reports from every section indicate
that the stocks of manufactured
goods in the hands of mills is not over
10 to 20 per cent. of what it was a
year ago

Think 1t Unwise to Go short on Cot
ton at Present.
New York. May 5.-The upturn in
July cotton to-day should be enough
to keep any one from the short side
of the market. 1t would not be hard
for any one to see that July might
easily sag off, as it has been doing for
weeks. and get as low as 13Ac or
even 13c, and then go up a cent in
two days. When you have a cotton
famine on your hands it's not much
of a time to be short of cotton.
There is a short interest in the mar
ket, and the first thing we know some
body will be buying July, and sending
the price up in leaps and bounds. 1t
may not be good time to invest in
cotton-we did not say it is-but this
does not mean that it's a chance to go
short. and one that should not be
missed.
We may see a gradual and slow
sag for some weeks, and then prices
will go up more in two days than
they went down in two months. Do
not be short of cotton for a while. 1t
IS simply scalping the market.
The Savannah morning news., 1904-05-06

The local spot market continued in
the same sluggish trend that has char
acterized its course for several days
past.
There was no change in quotations,
and the market was posted easy, lower
to sell.
Only one quotation was posted at
p. m, the morning and later afternoon
spot figures being omitted.
The f. 0. b. brokers reported a good
demand. but the country still persists
in refusing to sell on the present state
of the market. Cotton on a basis of
good middlng was quoted steady at
1879, but only few sales were made
at this figure.
The New York futures market was
again unsettled and nervous. The
market opened at a decline, due to
strong room liquidation and disap-
pointing cables.
Shortly after the opening the news
that spots were in strong demand in
New Orleans had the effect of send
ing the market up, and it continued
20 recover until at the close New York
went y points up, and New Orleans
22Q2S points up.
The total ports receipts were 2,42O,
against $3.50 last wear.
Those posted on the market gener-
ally agree that cotton was never
stronger from a statistical standpoint
than at the present time.
The weather map is more encourag-
ing than for some time past, and the
demand from spinners is also on the
increase. Traders look for a further
advance, rather than a decline.

the last few days, and better spot

and Memphis.
Spinners' takings for the week are
expected to be materially below their
takings last year. While the very
small receipts point to very small
crop.
The activity of the pool in New Or
leans is taken TO Indicate that its
members are short of actual cotton,
which they have sold to Europe, and,
realizing that the only way to draw
the cotton out is TO make the price
attractive to holders, they. are now
bending every energy, by boosting flu
lures, to rise the market high enough
to induce holders to sell.
