[HE EARLY MARKET UP ONGfIDD CABLES Later the Local Turns Weak on Realizing. COTTON CLOSES STEADY And at Net Rise of From One to Five Points, — The Market for May Mr heat Rules Active and Strong. (By the Associated Press.) New York. Jan. 19.—Dry goods busi ness in cotton goods keeps fully up ti recent average and would be larger if stocks in first hands were more ample The tone of the market is very firm. Kid finished cambrics advanced 1-Sc per yard Print cloths are strong and difficult tc buy. Silks and ribbons are firm with a fair business doing. NEW YORK COTTON. New York. Jan. 19.—The cotton mar ket opened steady at an adance of 2 tc 5 points and later business increased the advance to 50>7 points. The improve ment was due to cables that were re garded as favorable with public interest still supplying the market with buying orders, private cables that the English improvement was based largely upon fa vorable Manchester conditions which led to active speculative buying at Liver pool. Later the local market became quite weak under realizing and certain boar pressure under which prices sold off to Saturday’s close. But again pub lic buying orders took the lead apd prices rapidly advanced with the market in the afternoon partly firm. The close was steady at a net rise of 1 to 5 points. The selling for short account was largely upon the assumption that th' strong statistical position had been ever discounted and that the long interest had become too great and too widely ex tended. The selling was further stimu lated by indications of larger receipts, ports for the day showing 36,731 hairs, against 27.801 last year and thus far for the week 66.7f'3 bales, against 30.692 last year, leading to estimates on the amount to be brought into sight this week point ing to at least as much as came into sight last year when it was 277,831 bales. A feature of the dav's figures was the large total of exports which nearly met the port receipts, being 34,990 bales or within 147,917 bales for the correspond ing time last season. At the same tint' the spot cotton markets of the South were stead’- to firm, although the only spot point reporting any actual advance was New York. Vfw York.

NEW ORLEANS COTTON- New Orleans, Jan. 19. —Spot cotton to day was in fair demand, factors have not been offering freely and the assortment on the tables Is not as tempting as it might be. Basing their views on the early advance in contracts today, holders were asking concessions above board figures during the morning hours, but their efforts met with little encourage ment from buyers. Sales 2,800 bales, in cluding 700 to arrive. Quotations un changed. Favorable cables and the report that prominent English bears had turned bulls had the effect of causing an ad vance of 2 to 4 points in futures on the first call and a gain of 3 to 4 points addi tional ensued. Prices broke, however, at that level, under the influence of bear hammering and covering by timid longs and the figures worked some 3 tc 6 points lower on the various positions. Later there were .slight fluctuations, the market closing from 7 to 1 point lowcfc* than Saturday's closing. New Orphans, La.

STOCKS AND BONDS. j New York, Jan. 10. —The scanty orders | to buy stocks which were found in bro- ! kcrV offices this morning confirmed the impression of the indifference of the public to th** present stock market. While j today's opening dealings failed to show ; any buying demand from outside sources, there v.as no eagerness to sell stocks. The consequence was the same listless ar.cl indeterminate movement that was increasingly manifest last week. The Saturday bank statement, while favor able en *ts face, gave evidence of the re quirements r; on the money market re- , suiting from the Reading deal, and was accepted as a warning that the resources of the money market, as they become re plenished, are likely to be drawn upon by syndicates for the pushing of pro jects held !n abeyance. The ris« in sterl ing at Par’s served to neutralize the ad vance here, but the conviction is general | that an outward movement of gold this winter is probable. The announcement of the terms of the coming Transvaal loan and the probable requirement for the Panama Canal purchase are con firmatory of this view. Os immediate; developments, the reports of ear short age and inability to move freight offered was not a favorable influence. The re sulting delay in the grain movement is likely to affect the return flow of cur rency. The shutting down of works od account of cca 1 shortage was also ac cepted as unfavorable. Secretary Shaw’s order icquiring the re-substitution of government bonds for other securities deposited r,gainst government deposits was regarded as making necessary a con traction in note circulation by tlm banks. Amongst the few movements of stocks worthy of mention, that in Chesapeake j and Ohio, was most conspicuous.

May sold up to 5.89 instead of opening lower than Saturday, and as was to be expected some of those who failed to take profits on the other advance took them this morning. This selling caused more or less uncertainty and after touching 8.89 May dropped back to 5.84 and ruled around that fig ure most of the day. From eleven *o two o’clock practically all the trading in May took place around 8.87» and 8.85. There seemed to be enough cotton com ing out to stop a further advance, and enough wanted to prevent a decline. But the next move is rather difficult to forecast. It may be the market has gone as high as it can, and there must be a setback. I.t may be that the market has had its reaction and is on the way to higher figures. There was not the enthusiasm shown today that we should have expected, in order to swing the price into new ground. This was rather a disappointment and inclined many to take profits. In fact the profit taking on an advance can be considered the part of wisdom. Nine cents is a good price. Those having a profit cannot miss much by realizing on every advance. We would rather see a setback before buying again. The situation is strong, but the market has had a good advance. There can hardly be much of a hreak, 1 however, until receipts increase. No signs of an increase yet. New York spot quiet and 5-100 higher; middling uplands 9c.; middling gulf 9Uc. Cotton futures today ranged as fol lows: Open. High.

BARBEE & CO. H. &, B. Beer’s Market Letter. i (Special to News and Observer.) New Orleans, La., Jan. 19. —Liverpool advices were more favorable than look ed for, consequently cur market opened from 3 to 5 points higher on all months | except July, which advanced 7 points, j Fresh buying occasioned an additional | advance of 2. points shortly after, but | the freer port receipts, the liberal New j Orleans and Galveston estimates for to ( morrow coupled to a quieter feeling in I sj)Ots. subsequently caused a break of 8 Ito 9 points from the top. Near the clbse a slight rally from the bottom was es tablished, making the net loss only 1 point on the day, while the port move ment is free. The interior receipts so arc relatively light and the estimate for the semi-weekly is [>6,000, against 70,000 last year. Manchester cables say that the recent sharp advance has pro voked different opinion regarding the im mediate result, some persons claiming it has checked business, while others de clare it has brought it out. A good in quiry prevails, however, and a good busi ness has transpired in all description of China staples. The Calcutta turn over has improved, and the smaller out lets are healthy. The feeling continues extremely favorable to the article spec ! ulatively. j The spot situation, though shows a I sign of relaxation and indisposition on j the part of exporters to follow to ad • vance. The future course of the mark et will be ruled by receipts if they in crease prices will give way or enhance further, if they decrease. H. & B. BEER. Tarrant & King’s Cotton Letter. (Special to the News and Observer.) New York, Jan. 19- —As a suggestion of foreign demand, it can be said that to day’s Liverpool prices were the highest of the season and that the port receipts exceeded the interior movement enough to excite general comment as to whether or not American spinners were too in different as regards supplies. With the loss of seven thousand bales at Houston for tomorrow and every one realizing that while the port receipts were larger they arc not nearly as im portant as the interior movement, this simple fact is food for thought. Every one is expecting a larger move ment. It has been predicted repeatedly, but with the demand greater at the time than the movement and spot markets much stronger than contracts, it is ob vious to the close observer that con tracts must advance to a parity with the Southern spot markets. Our market, after scoring a sharp ad vance at the opening, closed firm at a shade lower prices. Sentiment of the conservative quality remains distinctly on the bull side and a better market is expected after today’s reaction from the higher prices. TARRANT & KING, 68 Broad Street. NOTICE.
