UnfavorabIe DEVELOPMENTS in War.

Now Advise Buying Cotton Unless
UnfRvOrnbIe Developments in War.
New York, Jan. 9.-Although we have
recently been feeling that it would be
difficult to put the cotton market
higher, the evidence of great improve
ment in the dry goods market is so
strong that we have been obliged to
reconsider opinion, and, barring war
we have come to the conclusion that
the outlook is for higher prices.
The principal argument on the bear
side has been that the high prices
would curtail consumption, but the
world seems to be readjusting itself to
the results of the series of small crops
and the outlook at present is that
there Will be no ourtailment, except
such as may be forced later by lack
OF cotton.
Under these circumstances, we no
longer feel that we can advise SELL
ing cotton short. But would rather
suggest buying. provided there is no
new unfavorable developments in the
political situation in the East.

"An things come round to him who
will but wait" Longfellow.
With higher cables from Liverpool
the war news more favorable from the
Orient, and with reassurances of a
short crop, there was no reason why
cotton should not have advanced. New
Orleans, after celebrating the anniver-
saIy of the battle of the Crescent City
yesterday. started the ball to rolling,
and closed the day with cotton about
"a points up since last quotations. There
was heavy buying in the city by the
Gulf, and prices scored accordingly.
In Gotham the bulls again held the
winning hand and the market SCARED
from Is to 80 points, while spots were
officially quoted at the close at 30
point advance.
The market was steady both in Liv-
erpool and around the American rings.
The bears contend that just as soon
as the war clouds become thicker in
the Orient. that cotton will go tum-
bling down like q lot of building blocks,
whereas the bulls say that war or no
war, 15-cent cotton is as sure to come
as the setting of a winters sun. Liver
pool is confidently expected to open
higher on Monday.
Spots in Savannah advanced 1sc since
the close of the week Friday.
There was a fair demand for fob.
cotton, and likewise a fair offering on
a basis of 1870 for good middling.
The market is still uncertain, and to-
morrows market will be watched with
the same interest that has character
ize1 the cotton world for the past fort
night.

DRY GOODS.

New York, Jan. 9.-The dry goods
market shows little increased activity,
but the outlook for more active bust
ness and added firmness to prices is
generally considered bright. The print
cloth market is unusually firm, and
products of print cloths naturally share
this firmness and upward tendency. No
marked change has occurred in prices,
but the prospects are for further read
