SMALL RECEIPTS
 PROVED bULL|SH
Corn Closed 3-4c Up, While Oats Advanced 1-4c to 5-Sc Provisions Re
 mained Unchanged

Chicago, January 4.-Bullish sentiment predominated in the corn market today chiefly owing to continuel smallness of receipts The close was unsettled at the same as yesterdays finish to % cents higher with January at lf12 to l-55s and May 1873. to 1878.
 Oats gained !. to Ss cents. The result in provisions was unchanged to 10 cents lower.
 The corn market developed unmistaka- ble strength that sent March to the high est prices this season. The enlargement of receipts did not appear sufficient to indicate. that producers were anywhere near ready to dispose of the bulk of the crop. Besides gossip was current that the food administration showed no signs of issuing permits for importing corn from Argentina and that means were be- ing sought to send upward Of Il 900 0U.Ooo worth of food to Europe prior to July l. During the last 90 minutes of trading. however, considerable realizing set in and values showed a setback due more or less to a material increase of receipts next week In oats, as in corn. the strength of the cash position was the main bullish factor.
 Provisions were dull and weak.

temperatures close, to zero in Alabama, Mississippi. Tennessee and Atlantics. 1n- dications are for fair and warmer all around over Sunday.
 While one cannot be blind to the fact of bearish opposition holding advantage and welding control at present, there is absolutely no change in the big factors of the situation which are bullish. such as the absence of goods reserves, urgent needs of cotton abroad, large profit mar gin to manufacturers and short supply. The contest between spot holders and bearish is again very keen, but with shipping improving as fast as it does, the outlok for assisting developments in favor of spot holders seems to brighten so rapidly that it is barely conceivable that they give up on the closing round, The issue,- of course, depends entirely on their attitude and action.

UNABLE 10 FIND LANDING PLACE
General List Closed Barely Steady at a Net Decline of 15 to 50 Points Un-
 der Friday

New York, January 1.-The cotton mar Set was nervous and unsettled again today. An opening break was followed by rally on covering. but the advance met increased offerings and prices eased off in the later trading with the close barely steady at a net decline of l5 to 5J points. March contracts fluctuated be- tween G.o4c and 27.S5c. closing at 2I.O9c. compared with 2L25c last night.
 The market opened steady at q decline of 15 to 4e points under renewal of yes terday's selling movement, There was good deal of covering for over tAe week end which absorbed the early offering at about the initisl prices. Prices then frmed up with January from \. 4oc to 2S7oc and May from Poo to 26SSc or about r. to IS points net higher. After the more urgent demand from shorts had been supplied, hoWcH er. the market turned easier under continued liquidation and southSrn selling with prices selling back to about the early low point ill the late trading
 While there was some bullish com ment on the reported reduction in gov ernment freight rates, this feature did not appear to make much impression on sentiment and there WAS talk of in creased southern selling in the late trad ing. which probably increased bearfsh
 influence.
 Reports from the goods trade indicated no improvement in immediate demand and some further curtailments of pro- duction owing to the lack of fresh orders to replace completed government con- tracts, but stated that a better business was expected within the next week or two owing to the good retail trade rs- ported in the west Manchester cables said there were large inquiries in the market there which has not yet resulted in much actual business and spinning companies reported large profits and dividends for the last half year.
