New York. May 4.-The market
shows evidence of manipulation in the
old crop positions, which lend them
selves readily to efforts to advance
them. owing to the absence of public
interest and a general disposition to
avoid the short side. 1t is suspected
that certain interests, which only re
Gently covered a considerable line of
shorts, are working to get prices up to
a higher level, in order to put out a
new line again.
A feature of to-day's market was
the presence of scale orders to sell July
at every point advance. and it looks
as if a new bear interest is being put
out very conservatively with the in
tention of getting as high an average
as possible by Offering little resistance
to any upward movement.
AS the Whitsuntide holidays ap-
preach. we are likely to hear of ex-
tensive shut downs in England, but
this is a customary proceeding, and
only sufficiently long to give machin-
cry a needed oVerhauling. 1t is prob
able that after the holidays, there vail
be less short time than before them.

In the future market the fear of the
day came with the close, when one
of the most thrilling set-tos ever seen
at the local ring between bulls and
bears took place. The bears had lined
up at the ring some time before the
close, and by steady offer
14.1Oc down to 1866. A few
minutes before the close the two lead
ing bulls commenced bidding 1866 for
July. The bears Immediately COM
menced offering huge blocks at 1890.
Suddenly the bulls commenced bidding
1890 for July and the bears began
firing lots of a thousand bales at a
time at them. The situation was tense.
and the ring in an incredibly short
time was crowded twenty deep with
brokers. Suddenly one of the leading
bulls yelled across the ring to the
other, Buy all they've got, and III
take half" In moment the leader
was on top of a stool frantically ges-
tict-lting as he accepted the cotton
that was being hurled at him by the
bears.
For a moment the big bulls and
bears glared at each other. while the
smaller operators apparently forgot all
about trading. The leading bull yelled
a bid of 1880 for 10000 bales of July
across the ring, and then followed it
up by another bid for $4,000 bales.
The bears quailed in a short while,
but the bulls kept on bidding at the
same figure that the bears had been
offering large quantities of cotton at,
but when the closing gong sounded
there was no cotton for sale in the
ring; the bears had been squelched. At
the close of the market the tone was
called steady. July was 8 points high
err than the close of yesterday, at
1890 October was points lower. at
l1.lOc, and December was points
lower at TO- 6c.
The Savannah morning news. (Savannah, Ga.) 1900-current, 1904-05-05

ity was generally firm led by the near
positions which were governed by the
outlook for a better spot demand, IN
connection with the sensationally light
interior movement which reached less
than a thousand bales for the day.
Local shorts were evidently uneasy in
view of the diminishing stocks. further
exports and talk that English spin
ners would go on full time after Whit
suntide and in the afternoon July sold
up - 13.70c on stop orders, while May
hung around 1850 and the net gain
on the general list was a matter of ga
"A points, the later positions beng rel
atively heavy under the generally ia
vorable crop weather which undoubt-
eddy restricted commission house buy

points of the best for the day; quiet in
tone at net advance of 64l9 points.
Sales estimated at 100000 bales. Port

DEMERE a HAMMOND
Say That Feeling in Cotton Market
Is Much Improved.

Savannah. Ca, May 4.-The feeling
towards the cotton market tonight is
much improved to what it has been
recently. Private cable advices from
Liverpool advise that Lancashire spin
ners will work on full time after Whit
week, and IL was predicted that they
will be forced to buy even more freely
Further advices say that on April %,
stock at Manchester was 81, 900 bales
of which but 1900 was American.
These amounts include cotton in tran
sit, as well as that on docks. There
has been some buying of entire list
to-day, but more freely of July and
August.
The market to-day has reflected a
mercantile basis, in fact. the talk on
floor seems to be taking the view that
cotton may corner itself for July, and
European spinners may have succeed
ed in putting the laugh on America.
One very strong influencing factor. the
dropping Off of interior receipts down
into the hundreds, just at this time
when better trade conditions in Man
chester are freely talked of.

Short of Cotton On.
New York. May 4.-Before the close
last night there was a general feeling
that the market would have a reaction.
There was shown by the action of Liv-
erpoOl when prices there advanced 10
points this morning and closed steady
1t looks very much as though the bear
crowd was covering, and hoping to put
the price up in order to sell to better
advantage.
When July first broke to 13 93c there
was an advance to i4.25c. Then a
break carried July to 1890, only to
have an advance to over ii cents. The
next break was in the sixties, and an
advance the next to the fifties and an
advance to 13. sac. Yesterday the break
to Is. Acc entitled the prices to a reac-
ton of 20 or 80 points, same as before
Weather is very much better IN the
South. Conditions are not brilliant
but there is no anxiety unless the Tex
as storm amounts to something. We
don't see what there is to be short oil
cotton on. but on a further advance
there is likely to be a break back to
wards the low figures.

COTTON FUTURES.

New York, May 4.-The cotton mar

room bulls in response to firmer ca
bles than expected and reports OF a
more active spot business IN Liver
pool.
Early weather accounts were Eener-
ally favorable. however. and imme-
diately after the opening the new crop
positions showed rather a declining
tendency, but later were rallied by the
continued iirmness of the old crop
months and reports of storm over
sections OF Texas which was said to be
sufficiently severe TO interrupt the tel
eeranh service with Galveston and
Houston.
During the entire session the market

ton demand on the other side. Weather
reports, however. were quite favorable.
The New England advices continued
rather bearish, but the indications
pointed to good buying for export. Still,
it was asserted that only certain grades
of cotton were wanted by foreigners.
and this served to reduce the effect of
the foreign demand for actual cotton.
Receipts estimated 1000 bales, against
$3.50 last week, and 10,52S last year. For
the week, estimated at $4,000, against
Al 1903 last week, and 1928 last year.

Turpentine moved up a quarter peg
again yesterday the close of the mar
ket demonstrating the strength Of the
product; spirits being officially posted
at SO cents a gallon.
The market is considered very firm,
and a further advance rather than a
decline is looked for.
The present price of turpentine is 10
cents higher than at this same time
last year.
The demand continues exceptionally
good, owing to the light receipts on
account of the extremely cool
weather, for this season of the year
in the turpentine belt.
Reports from the producers indi-
cate that turpentine is not running,
and until the weather is very much
warmer the income may be expected

Only one quotation was posted at the
Cotton Exchange yesterday, and that
was enough TO demonstrate the apa-
thetic condition of the local market.
1t is unnecessary to state that prices
were unchanged. The tone was chalk
ed up as Easy, lower to SELL" Only
a few bales were disposed of on the
local spot.
The fob. market was also inert, and
while there was some demand, but lit
tie business was done.
Cotton. on a basis of good middlng
was quoted at - 1916. The interior
still refuses to sell al present prices.
Futures played the same nervous err
ratio game that has characterized the
market for several days past. The
New York market opened at an ad-
vance, and futures closed from 6 to 10
points no.
Spots in the metropolis also held up
their end, the finish showing an ad-
vance of Is digits.
The spot situation in New Orleans
also showed an upward trend, the gain
amounting to l-16c. In that city
wild fight between the bulls and bears
was feature of the day
The receipts continue very light. The
sale of cotton in New York yesterday
amounted to $50, 900 bales.
