FOUR PER CENTS WERE THE FAVORITES In Cotton Fears that the Market has breu Over sold Acted as a Brake on Further Sell ing. Decline in Ameri can Shirting. New York, Nov. 7. —The chief feature today has been the new price named on American shirting prints—3 cents, a de cline of Vi cents from the previous open ing price; and the lowest hitherto quoted. The general demand for cotton goods was about of average extent, although interest in elections interfered some what. COTTON. New York. Nov. 7. —The talk this morning pointed to a new maud for cotton receipts for the wook. TIIO offi cial estimate for today was early nr mitigated as tio.OOO. Soon the movement appeared to be heading toward 1)0,Out) for the day, and that tiguro became the popular estimate. Notwithstanding tiiis feature the market 111:1 h* quite a stubborn resistance to the further at tacks of the bears, and it soon became evident that current low prices and the fears that the market hud been over sold were acting as a brake to further selling and the downward tendency of the market that followed the opening call was arrested. The market opened steady at an advance of 1 to 1* points on light buying by local shorts, further advanced 1 point, but promptly turned easier, and failed to make any substan tial rally for the rest of the session. Some attention was given to private cables claiming that llie condition of trade at Manchester was better than at any time this season. Public cables made little impression, being about as expected. Moderate buying for New Orleans ac count was at one time a feature. Trading was for the most part local, and more especially with reference to tomorrow’s election holiday, most of the small local traders being disposed to even up their acoennts. The market was finally steady, with prices unchanged to 3 points net higher. NEW YORK. New York, Nov. 7.—Cotton futures opened quiet and steady. Futures closed steady. Opening. Closing.

Nov. 7.—Tho day’s stock market undoubtedly reflected the con viction of operators in securities that with election uncertainties out of the way, the strong conditions of the coun try industries and business will have try's industries and business will have This conviction, so far as it found re flection in the market, was almost pure ly a professionel one, for the outside interest as shown by orders through commission houses was very small. Trading proceeded in a very desultory manner during the early hours of the day, although the selling, for foreign ac counts which was fairly liberal, was THE .NEWbi AjXJtf OEBEJIVKH, NOV. S, 1898. TRAYLOR’S MAGISTRATE CIGAR. well absorbed and prices of the interna tional! stocks firmly sustained. Southern Railway preferred was a j conspicuous example. But as the day wore on, the market gained both in ac tivity and strength and embraced an! increasing list of stocks. The contem plation of the very heavy volume of bank exchanges and the enormous export business in cereals had their influen.ee on the bullish tendency as did the con tinued favorable report of railroad earn ings, especially from the South and West. Handsome increases in earnings were also shown by the Southern Railway, Northern Pacific and Great Northern, the latter showing $380,041 more earn ed for October than last year. The stocks which are junior to the bonds which were favorites in the heavy bond business felt the advantage of that movement, Atchison Preferred advanc ing over a point. Tobacco showed the largest activity and gained over two points. There were dealings in odd lots of quite a number of high grade stocks. But the most conspicuous movement of the day was in bonds issued for the purpose of reorganiza tion of various companies and running from 50 to 100 years. Os these the four-ceiits were the favorites and the Atchison issues were easily the leaders, gaining 1 per' cent in the price on very large demand. There were individual blocks of this bond sold of a par value of $195,000. $105,000 and two of SIOO,- 000. The Union Pacific fours were less prominent, but still active, as were Northern Pacific prior liens, fours and Norfolk and Western general. The Erie prior liens and the Reading fours, which might be placed i ii_ the same class, were heavy. Marked strength and ac tivity was also shown by the new Bal timore and Ohio fours when issued and also by the 3'->'s. Dealings in Southern (’ousel s’s continue very large. There was a good demand as well for many other bonds of the middle grade, extend ing in some cases to the purely specula tive issues. Total sales. $5,700,000.
