Volume of Dealings in Stocks
 Contracted Yesterday
NOTABLE RECOVERIES MADE
Demand Not Steadily Manifest and During Periods of sharpest Resc- ton Became PerceptibIy Lan-
 guId and indifferent.

New York, January 16-Speculation con tnued to make progress today though at a somewhat diminished rate. The volume of dealings contracted from the recently prevailing average, and the movement of prices was variable and irregular. Large profit taking was stll in evidence and this had the effect at time of driving prices backward. But the market was at no time without points of strength and some notable recoveries were made from the declines forced by the realizing pro- cess. This was regarded as demonstra- ton of the absorption power of tine market and encouraged the continuance of speculative ventures for further rise in prices.
 The demand was not steadily manifest and during the periods of sharpest re- action the buying became perceptibiy lan- guid and indifferent. The reports current of the enormous individual holdings in various stocks. notably in Union Pacific which was being liquidated, had the ef- feet of arousing distrust over the mar ket attitude of those vested with inside information regarding conditions of the properties whose shares make up the stock market.
 The realizing in Unin Pacific was sup plemented in it's influence on sentiment by the persistent pressure on Amalga- mated copper. The near approach of the dividend meeting for this stock gave rise to much surprise and uncertainty. The

 LOCAL ACCOUNT Cotton Market Proves Nervous
 and Unsettled NET GAIN FOR THE DAY Southern Advices Were 5ullish, Claim ing improvement in Spot Demand and Very Firm Holders.
 Sales 100000 Bales.
NET GAIN FOR THE DAY

Now York. January 16.-The cotton market was moderately active, sales be- ing estimated at 100000 bales, but trading was chiefly for local account and the market acted nervous and unsettled, al- though the net result for the day was a gain of SQ15 points and prices touched the highest point reached since the de- cline to 1i.Ss for March early last week.
 The opening was quiet at unchanged prices to decline of points under scattered liquidation and local bear pres sure. following indifferent Liverpool ca- bles and private advices, stating there was some apprehension as to the effect on sentiment of @ liberal victory at the English general election. Southern ad- vices were bullish, however claiming i'm provement in spot demband and very firm holders, and the market turned steadier right after the fall in covering and moderate Wall street support. Around 11.7B for March there seemed to be a good deal of cotton for sale and dur ing the middle session the market ttuc- tuated within a narrow range some or points off from this figure with busi- ness showing no special feature. Just before the close some of the local pro- fessionals became aggressive buyers and the market was finally firm at the best point of the session. official advices from the southern spot market reported un- changed, prices to an advance Of 5-l6 with fair sales at or points, and while port receipts were heavier than expected early, they were swollen by large outside clearances and were slightly exceeded by the exports.
 Receipts at the ports today, s5,9a bales against 21,003 last week and 20,S63 last year For the week (estimatedD 130OO( bales against 161.s74 last week and 125,- e17 last year, Today's receipts at New Orleans. 10 421 bales against 1882 last year, and at Houston S127 bales against 4OSt last year.

announcement of reduction in the price of copper on the metal exchange was an additional influence on Amalgamated copper.
 The London market for copper also showed a notable spread in the discount on futures as compared with the price of spot copper The recovery in these two prominent market features was of much influence in reassuring speculative sem timent A good effect was produced also by the advances shown in some railroad stocks of the substantial grade, and Of a free enough market supply to prevent their movements from being suspected of manipulation to the same extent as would be the case with closely held very iligh-priced stocks
 The Pennsylvania group, the Gould group and one or two other groups were examples of this class. There was little news to explain the days various move ments The tightening of the call money market yesterday afternoon. found ex- planation in today's enormous clearings by the banks. which rose to s6S7. .4S9,1Os, a figure never before exceeded except by the January clearings of this year. The very large amount of dividend and interest payments falling due on January 15 serve to explain these heavy check exchanges, and these disbursements may be expected to help the money market
  the interior are coming here, and the gain by the banks from the sub-treasury since the bank statement rose today to | $5, ,S55, 900. The shipment of $1,000OO0 in gold to Mexico was of small effect under these circumstances
 The foreign exchange market showed little change in spite Of their increasing supplies of money in this market, and also of a sharp advance in the discount Tate-in London today The latter was in response to the taking of money from the market by the Bank of England which is a usual preliminary to an advance in the banks official discount rate.
 In Paris discounts became easier and in Berlin it is expected that the Imperial bank will reduce its official rate of dis count at the next meeting.
 The statement of this country's foreign trade for December shows an excess in value of exports over imports of S9S,- 552 600, more than doubling the trade bal ance in our favor of the preceding De- cember. The vast resources thus placed at the command of the foreign exchange market largely explain the facility with which the enormous demand has been met for remittances to cover maturing loans from foreign leaders. Another fac- tor in the result is an awakened demand on the part of foreign investors for Amer ican railroad mortgages; which bond
 holders in Wall street report to be a conspicuous development of the last few days. Stocks continued to move irregu- larly to the close, new points of strength at that time being mixed with reactions on realizing.

 The steadiness of the market during the past few days developed into a very firm undertone today, March. after opening at about last nights closing level. Il .S3, final ly closing at H. Shorts found them selves in the shadow of another census report which is due next week and as the trade anticipates a total ginned to Janu- ery Is, of about 100000 bales, they found some difficulty in covering, offerings be- ing so limited There was more doing In spots Tn fact there was better de- n1and for the staple locally than for two months. Other sections of the belt have been pretty well exhausted and stocks are beginning to decrease at a rapid rate Two weeks ago Galveston had a stock Of el9000. today they hold but 143,O0O against 000 one year ago.
 Since the first of January Savannah stock lost 4S.O00 bales, now amounting to 95. GOO compared with 1430OO. of the 9oS,OoO at all ports yesterday, New Orleans held s31. .ooO, New York 225O00, or more than one-half of the total stock at all ports. The New Orleans market has been the highest spot market in the country this season. due to the disaster in the Missls- sippi valley and small crops generally throughout the southwest Consequently exporters have been doing the better part of their business with the south Atlanue states Savannah having undersold every other market in the south since opening of the season, except perhaps Southwest Texas. which practically sacrificed It's cot ton during the early part of the season because of that section of Texas having made q good crop and thinking other dis- tricts of the belt were as well off. The excellent demand for cotton goods throughout the world is taxing the capac- ity of the spindles in every mill district of both continents

 Futures were bullish again today, open ing 1 to points up, with a decided up- ward trend in prices. At the close of the noon call January was 1s points high CT at 1l.6, March 12 up at 11.9. May 13 up at 1205, and July F higher at 12.13. Sec retary Blackwell of the National Gin ners' association said before leaving this city that the next report of the amount of cotton ginned from January 1 to Jan had great deal to do with the upward and 200OO bales. That report doubtless had a great deal to do with the upward tendency of prices today. Cotton is now about 40 points higher than 1t was a week ago, and the upward direction is generally attributed to the action of the cotton convention in resolving to raise prices and reduce acreage. The market closed firm within l to 2 points of the top, with net gains of IS to 19 points
