IA Cents.

IA Cents.
New York Feb. 20.-The market
ruled very irregular this morning due
to war news. and the failure of Liver
pool to advance in response to the
, rise here. 1t was an uncertain mar
ket from the start. and not one to
trade very heavily in. Over Ia cents
the situation does not look as sound,
and healthy as it did at lower prices.
From the action of the market, a good
deal of arbitrage business was done.
On the big break New York and Liver
pool came together, in one instance,
Liverpool was actually lower than New
York. Then on the advance Liverpool
gained. so that there was difference OF
sc; Of course this meant big money for
those who had straddles.
Now these straddles are being undone,
and at one time this morning there
was only Is points difference between
Liverpool and New York. Under these
circumstances, the situation is too COM
plicated to justify general trading.
There is a big war on in the East the
prospect of trouble in Europe and a
lot of things to be considered. Under
the circumstances we would rather
not buy cotton above IA cents, though
our ideas of the value of the cotton on
breaks do not change. We would take
profits on long cotton and not buy at
present prices, though the market may
easily have another whirl.

COTTON FUTURES.

New York, Feb. 20.-The cotton mar
ket opened steady at a decline of sails
points, under scattering liquidation,
and in sympathy with disappointing
cables. Estimated receipts for the day
We're light, however; the visible supply
statement received a bullish interpre-
tation, and there seemed no special
pressure to sell. so that when the To-
cal bull leader began buying May and
July, soon after the call there was a
rally to a little over yesterdays finals.
Following this market ruled quiet and
practically featureess, with prices
fluctuating within narrow limits.
The Savannah morning news. (Savannah, Ga.) 1900-current, 1904-02-21

market has again advanced on the
same class Of buying that was appar-
ent yesterday, and we think it is now
pretty well established that some sort
of a bull movement is on the cards
for the spring.
With the active demand for spots,
and the movement getting down to
figures that confirm the smallest crop
estimates, we see no reason why such
a movement should not be successful,
and while reactions will be frequent
and sharp, we expect bull market
in the long run.

ARMOUR PUSHED WHEAT UP 4NC
A RUSHELl.

Chicago, Feb. 2O.-A sensational Gd-
vance of 4Ac a bushel was scored in
thirty minutes to-day by May wheat.
The phenomenal price of $1.O7 was
reached, the chief incentive being ru-
mors of the Russo-Japanese war
spreading to other nations.
Talk of stoppage of wheat shipments
from Russia. and from Argentina was
a secondary matter. The day on
Change was one of the most exciting in
a number of years. Compared with
yesterday the final figures to-day are 8
cents higher for May wheat and 2Ac
for July; May corn is up &c, oats &c,
and provisions, 15c to 3T1ac.
The leading futures ranged as fol-
lows

DRY GOODS

New York, Feb. 20.-The week in dry
goods closed with a conservative pol
icy pursued by buyers. but there is no
willingness on the part of sellers to
make concessions in view of the
strength of the raw cotton market. The
outlook is for hand to mouth trading,
although jobbers' stocks are becoming
materially depleted. 1t is evident that
buyers are to allow their stocks to be-
come depleted as far as it is possible
for them to do so.

The cotton market was extremely
irregular yesterday, and futures played
a sort of see-saw game.
The failure of Liverpool to advance,
according to expectations was in a
measure responsible for the erratic tone
of the market
Cotton opened at a decline Of from
SOLO points, but recovered before the
closing hour. and New York futures
were recorded at Is points up.
AS has been the rule for the last few
days, nothing was done on the local
epot market, and quotations were un-
changed.
In the (. o. b. circle cotton on ba-
sis of good middling was quoted at the
close at 141Sc, but little business was
done, as the interior is holding for 15c,
and in some places lie is asked.

New York, Oct. 27.-New York's great
underground railway, the beginning Of
the most comprehensive system of rapid
transit in the world. was formally
opened today. The ceremonies con.
nected with the opening OF the tunnel

ably never before faced in such q work
The rapid transit system, Of which
the subway opened today is but the
first stage, when completed will make

cities. Its 26 miles of underground
tracks, elevated structures and viad1cts,
over which will run express trains al
nearly mile q minute, will reach to
the city's northern and southern limits,
ami diving under the East River, make
the extreme eastern outskirts of Brook
lyn as accessible to the great busines.
district as the apartment house crowned
heights Of Harlem.
When completed 1t will have entailet
an expenditure of S35. 100000 It's con
struction 90 far has cost leo lives ant
has been the cause of innumerable dam
age suits.
