THE CLOSE AT THE DAI'S BEST PRICES Net Advance of Thirteen to Sixteen Points. PORT RECEIPTS SMALL Last Week’s Pre-election Conservatism in Wail Street Was Manifested Yesterday Only in a Somewhat Contracted Volume of the Business. Now York Cotton. Now York, Nov. 7.—The cotton market opened steady at an advance of tta l l points in response to better cables than looked for. The bulge was taken as a signal for short sales by some of the room trade, and im mediately following the call prices slipped off a point or two. But Liver pool continued lirrn and sent some buying, and the scalping element soon reversed its position on the market, which in the afternoon became par ticularly firm on the report that lower Wall Street was covering shorts and that certain leading Southern traders were taking on a. line of long con tracts through various wire houses. The close was very steady and at the best orices of the day, a net advance of 13al 6 points. Sales were estimated at about 11*0,000 bales, a large nropor tion of the business being done in the last hour. The strength at Liverpool was attributed to Alexandria buying. Ituring the afternoon here general business seemed to be improving some what with commission houses report in'- larger selling orders as prices reached tmi cents for the January op tion. The nrivate advices of a firmer ■pot situation In the South and ex pectation of a better demand both from spinners and for speculative ac count after election were probably in- Puential in causing the demand to cover shorts. Port receipts for the dav ran about 6.000 hales under the figures for last year. Receipts of cotton at the ports to day 61.794 hales against 95,180 last week and 71.937 last year. For the week 400,000 hales, against 436.920 last week and 431.079 last year. To day’s receipts at New Orleans 21.131 hates against 24,300 last year, and at Houston 12.29 S bales, against 21,105 last year. New York. N•■>%■. 6-vOotton spot quiet.

Now York, Nov. 7. —Last week’s ire-election conservatism in Wall street was today only in a :omewhat contracted volume of busi iess, the aggregate shares sold tili ng slightly below the previous small •st total since before the middle of October when the market took on its greatest volume. As for the price movement, it disclosed an emphatic expectation of higher prices and an | -niarged public demand after the elec tion has been cleared up. In the early part of the day the railroads hung mck and wereinconspicuous and while they did not fully retrieve their posi ion of relative importance in the market, there was a sufficient share !n tiie day’s strength by the railroads to restore the balance of the market. But gains were greater, transactions vere larger and the number of issues least in much higher in thelndustrixl Jepartment. in accordance with the issertions freely distributed from the headquarters of the speculative par ties that the principal interest in the market was to shift to the indus trials for the future. The U. L Steel stocks were the feature of the whole market and other iron and steel indus trials shared in the attention given them. The character of the marker cannot be better indicated than by a simple list of stocks of the industrial combinations and corporations which rose from 1 to 3 points in the course >f the day’s trading: Amalgamated ’opper, American Locomotive. Amer ican Smelting. Edison Electric, the Pressed Steel Car stock, the Republic Iron. Steel stocks, Tennessee Coal and Iron, Sloss Sheffield Steel, the Ameri can Steel Foundries stocks, the Uni ted States Steel stocks, the United States Iron Pipe stocks, Virginia Iron, Coal and Coke, Allis-Chalmers. tl|C Cotton Oil' stocks, American Sugar. American Ice, Corn Products, Inter national Paper, Associated Merchants. Union Bag and Papepr and American Tobacco. The usual profit-taking on the day’s rise cost something to the extreme high level prices, but the de cline was checked and the price level partly restored before the market closed. m , • Bonds were firm.
