New York, live. ".There was .1 flrmor
market in cotton to-ilay, larRely liecnuso
Ilia IJverjiool markctn took u turn for
the better nnil scored a rally ot nhnut -I
l'i'Kilsh iolnt3 In both spots and futures,
when a decllno of 3 to 4 points had been
expecleil.
Tho rally thcro, like the early rally here
yesterday. v,ti9 reported to rxi due to
profit-taking by fJiorts and a lull In the
loc-U and Continental selling. The market
hero opened up flnn and advanced 12 to
It points, with tho whole list going- up to
nl-out tho high point reached in yester
day's rally.
This improvement, however, was checked
by fresh local and Southern felling, and
tile market suhiequeiitly leaded and lost
all tho advance 011 a continuation of this
rclllnjr. There wu.i plenty of news from
the South, to the effect that holders arc
flrniT In their idea's and arc refusing to
racrinco their cotton, and already mass
meetings of farmers are being called to
enter into nn agreement not to sll. Such
mass meetings ar; being arranged for In
many places In Texas, to lake place on
December 17.
The bullish effect of this news and gos
sip on tho market was, however, com
pletely offset by the reports ot demoraliza
tion In tho yarn and cloth market?.
Iho market wan tlcidier in the late
trading and rallied again about 10 points
ycr yesterday's clnslns prices. Covering
of shorts and some buying for a turn, on
the theory that there are now too many
bears and all tho boar new? on the crop
Is out and that prices ought to have at
least nome tumporary rally, were the
features.
Spot cotton was steady litre and un
changed at S?. and New Orleans reported .1
llrmer market there, -with prices about
1-1 lugher than yeaterday. The market
closed steady.
MORE CONFIDENCE SHOW:..
REPUBLIC SPECIAL.
New Orleans, Dec. 7. In its summary
of the cotton situation, the Times-Democrat
will say to-morrow:
Yesterday's cotton market was good
enough, the reaction being sufficiently im
portant to instill a bit ot confidence where
confidence is now most needed. Mill men
are not yet satisfied that safety for them
lies in loadlns up. for the strength of the
resistance has not been fully tested, but
tho demand from this source is. neverthe
less, greater than the volume of offerings.
Just so soon as the fitful levers subt-ide
and confidence in the price Is re-established
on the new basis the talent gener
ally will look for a flood of investment
buying, which cannot fail to put some sub
stantial starch In the stand the country
as a whole has taken.
"Jlcanwhilo tho fact that many short
accounts havo been liquidated under the
expectation of a reaction should not be
forgotten, and It would also be well for
tho bulls to remember that the beam are
not goin? to surrender without a light anv
of tho ground they havo won. Were It
not for the remnant ot the short Interest
in tho absence of direct bullish support,
the bear leader and his stronger followers
would be in a position to do with the mar
ket pretty much as they pleased. Once
this weak following is out of the way,
strenuous hammering will probably start
in again. Then will be tho time when
frienda must show the kind of stuff theb
aic made of.
"Just now the country is feeling some
what better. The absence of anxiety to
sell has most certainly Improved the sit
uation to a material degree and has made
the consumer considerably more eager In
his demands for the actual stuff. A week
of this sort of thins will start the trend
of events tho farmers' way. Yesterday's
improvements, however, cannot be accept
ed by thinking men as the result of a
permanent influence, but rather of the
monetary nervousness of snorts and of
consumers, for underlying strength is yet
to be established before confidence will be
restored."

SUMMARYOFST.
Heavy local deliver!'.-? of Dec. wheat, easy cable?, favorable crop news from the
Argentine and liquidation by big professionals were depressing factors in yester
eiayi local jrraln market. The Armour contingent in Chicago were said tohe on
the bcllinfi- side and the break in that market had considerable effect here. There
was also a sympathetic movement in line with the decline of New York stocks. Sen
timent everywhere sti-med lo be bearish anil there was no outside speculative in
terest on the buying side. Just why grain should slump on a drop in the price, of
granger stocks was not clear to many traders, but few oi-trators cared to add to
their holdings, in view of the selling by Armour and the delivery of 1.( bu. of
Dec. wheat on local contracts. It was haid that this wheat was delivered because it
could not be sold at a profit to millers. This indicates a further falling off in the
cash demand. There were vigorous denials of damage reports from the Argentine.
Weather conditions in the winter belt were generally favorable. Though local re
ceipts were moderate, the amount on hand here was more than sufficient to meet
the cash demand.
Large receipts and good weather were bearish indications in corn. The mar
ket was dull, with little outside support, and the active options were weak at the
close. '
May wheat opened Sj'&Hc off and closed SitjSHc off.
May corn opened He off and closed jc off.
May oats closed vie off.
Receipts of produce v.-cro moderate and prices of fruits and vegetables were -en-erally
steady. "
Local securities were in fair demand. A ississlppi Valley was the strong spot.
Tcstcrdays bank clearings were $10,119,047. balances J1.161.20O. Discount rates were
steady between 4tj and 15 per cent.
Spot cotton was steady in the local market.

.Corn Is Dull and Weak on Good
Receipts and Favorable Weath
er Conditions:
Wheat values closed sharply lower in
yesterday's market. Though local re
ceipts were light, there was practically no
outside buying interest and the cash de
mand showed no Improvement. Ileport3
from the Argentine indicated tliat recent
rumors as to rust had been overdrawn
and this assurance caused a break in for
eign markets. Armour was said to bo a
heavy seller In Chicago and trading scnll
men was generally bearish. The break in
stocks was a depressing factor.
May wheat opened i3JsC off, ranged
from L11H to 1.13!2 and closed at n.llH

Corn was weak and dull. Receipts were
