Savannah, Nov. 4.—The general whole
sale markets were particularly active to
uv. presumedly on account of it being the
ariy part of the month, when there is
usually a brightening up of business and
■ tiling of accounts.
The main feature of activity in the lead
ing markets was the strong position of
common rosin, the demand being lively
and prices hardening. Pale grades contin
ued quiet. Spirits turpentine showed a
weakness and could not be sold at the cur
rent quotation, though there was a fair
demand at %c off.
The local cotton market was quiet, but
steady, buyers and sellers could not agree
upon prices and consequently the trans
actions were merely nominal.
The cotton futures markets were stimu
lated by the small receipts at the ports,
and interior towns, together with the ad
vance and activity at Liverpool, and prices
rose rapidly early in the day. Later, a de
cline -was caused by heavy realizing, but
a reaction took place and the market closed
4 to 6 points above Saturday’s closing fig
ures.
On account of the legal holiday, at New
York to-morrow (Tuesday), there will be
no cotton and financial reports sent out.
The following resume of the different
markets will show the tone and the quota
tions at the close to-day:
COTTOS.
The same condition continued to-day
that prevailed on Saturday. Buyers and
sellers were apart and the transactions
were merely nominal. Futures advanced
4 or 6 points and prices were firm at
Liverpool. This gave some strength to
the local market and the tone was bulle
tined steady and unchanged at the first
call at the Cotton Exchange, with no
sales. At the second and last call the
market was unchanged. The sales for the
day were only 150 bales.

New York, Nov. 4 —Riordan & Cos. say
ct cotton to-day: “The receipts continue
1 * be so extremely light that prices ad
an-ed both here and in Liverpool this
morning. January opened at B.'Ssc, sold
up to s.B7c, and ;hen became easier, fluct
uating nearly all day between B.Boc and
- ■ In the final trading the bears made
vicious dr s ve at the market, forcing a
bodice and inducing some liquidation.
The close was barely steady, with Jan
uary at 8.76@8.77e. There now seems
every indication that receipts will con
tine to fall off rapidly and in that case,
it is difficult to see how an advance can
be prevented, but the bears here are
strong and alert, and they seem deter
mined to fight desperately against higher
prices. The bulls, perhaps, may be more
numerous, but they are no match for
their adversaries in resources, organiza
tion and leadership. They expect, how
ever, that the inherent strength of the
cotton situation may enable them to win
in spite of all disadvantages. We trust
that they may be right.”
New Orleans, Nov. 4.—New Orleans

Mclntyre & Wardwell’s cotton review
by private wire to T. F. Johnson, broker.
Provident building: New York, Nov. 4.
Under the stimulus of small receipts at
the ports and the interior towns, as well
as activity and rising prices in Liverpoo:
and liberal buying orders from Europe,
cotton advanced 13 to 11 points and then
on heavy realizing reacted and closed bare
iy steady, at a net advance for the day of
4 to 6 points. The receipts at the ports
were so small that many operators, in
cluding not a few who have Inclined to
bearish convictions, regard them as sus
ceptible of but one interpretation, and
that is, that the crop is very small. Pri
vate advices from Liverpool stated that
the advance there to-day. was due to a
nervous feeling at the smallness of the
receipts at American ports. The receipts
at New Orleans and Houston to-morrow
were notably small. New Orleans Is ex
pected to get only 17,600 to 19,000 to-mor
row and Houston 10.000. The receipts at
all ports for the week are not expected
to be over 250,000, against 396,325 last year.
Unfavorable crop reports continue to be
received from many parts of the south.
The bears contend that the light receipts
are due largely to the fact that planters
are holding back supplies, but the nulls
affirm the light arrivals merely reflect
a light crop.
NAVAL STORES.
Spirits Turpentine—Heavy receipts and
the limited demand from Europe caused
a continued'weakness in the market. Buy
ers were apparently willing to take the
receipts at %c below the market price,
but factors held out to see whether their
neighbors would accept the bid before al
lowing their stocks to go. There were
no sales reported at a decline, but at the
close of the day the feeling in the market
was wavering toward the lower price. One
factor remarked to-duy that the condi
tions appeared very discouraging, as the
receipts were continuing heavy and th it
the buyers were taking them at any price
they choose to put on the product. This
state of affairs. In connection with the
present prospect of there being an in
crease In the cutting of boxes this fall,
causes a gloomy outlook for next sea
son, as far as fair prices for spirits tur
pentine Is concerned.
At the Board of Trade, at the first call,
at 11 o'clock a. m., the market was bulle
tined firm at 24%c, with no sales. At the
last call at 4 o'clock p. m. it remained at
24%c, with sales of 86 casks.
* Rosin—Pales continue to “go-a-begglng.
Buyers will not touch them except when
they are included in desirable lots of
lower grades. There was a strong de
mand for the lower grades, several small
lots of which were sold at 5c above the
quotations. The sales for the day were
about 3,000 barrels. At the Board of
Trade, at the first call, the market was
bulletined firm and unehanged from Sat
urday's closing, with reported sales of
733 barrels. At the close It was unchanged,
with no sales reported. The following

New York, Nov. 4.—There was further
extensive liquidations at the stock ex
change to-day, and a lower range of prices
was established. London was again a
heavy seller of stocks, owing to the politi
cal complication abroad and the foreign
ers were credited with disposing of
000 shares of Louisville and Nashville,
Wabash, Reading, Atchison and other
prominent issues. Commission houses w ere
active and considerable long stock was
sold for the account of holders whose
margins have been weakened by the
steady shrinkage in values. Roston sob:
Atchison and Burlington and Quincv
and these sales were attributed to the
break in Coppers there. Local bear op
erators were more aggressive, one house,
supposedly acting for Cammaek. having
thrown over at least 26,066 shares or
stocks. The strength of the sterling ex
change market accelerated the downwarq
movement and there was the usual talk
about gold exports. The disturbance,,
abroad lend additional interest to the sub
ject, although up to the close of busi
ness no arrangements had been made for
shipments. The impression is that there
will be no outward movement, at least
until Saturday, and even then shipments
may be avoided, as a prominent house is
expected in the market with 560 pounds
cables later in the week. The pressure
to sell was most pronounced in the cose
of the Internationals, Southwestern:? and

Chicago, Nov. 4.—For nine-tenths of to
day's session, wheat was quotable at same
Price. An idea of the extent of the trade
may be formed from the fact that brokers,
scalper? and room traders, were buying
and selling moderate quantities without
well defined opinions as to what course
they ought to take. The news received
might be considered favorable to the bears
but that element made no attempt to de
press prices. December wheat Opened. 58%
@WB%C. advanced to %/58%c. closing
%® v unchanged from Saturday.
Com- The ind'fferenee in corn was quiet
as marked to-day, as it had been on amy
day recently. The news of the day devel
oped nothing to arouse operators from
their lethargy. The situation seemed to
be that supplies of torn are known, hut
the consumption and absorption uncertain.
The market is therefore in a knotty condi
tion with the advantage In favor of the
hears. May eorn opened at 29%c, sold be
tween 29% and 29' s c, closing at 29%e—
--higher then on Saturday. Cash corn
steady.
Oats—Only slight alterations in prices
were observed in oats and they were due
to the modest action of the larger markets.
Tlie trade in oats like that in corn is Im
pressed by the estimates of the late crop.
Provisions—A big run of hogs weakened
the stock yards market and in turn af
fected product The depression continued
for a short period after the opening this
morning, after which the appearance of
a little outsi le buying reversed the tone
and from that time until the close, compar
ative steadiness prevailed. January pork
and ribs closed unchanged. January lard
a shade lower.

Provident building, Nov. 1: Wheat—
December wheat has fluctuated between
58%c and 58%e the entire session. This
tells the history of to-day's market bet
ter than wo can. Trade was confined al
most entirely to the scalping Interest,
with professional sellers to a great ex
tent. The situation outside of the nortn
west movement is strong, but the mar
ket Is wiak, still it declines wilh re
luctancy, and shows a tallying disposi
tion. On tile weak spots the depression
In stock Is having an Influence, as that
market Is supposed to portray the ex
change situation. Corn was firm, with
a fair demand for November anil De
cember. The steadiness of provisions,
notwithstanding the large hog receipts,
is due to good buying on the purt of
packers. Offerings were fairly large,
but this buying fully absorbed them."
