New York. Dec. 30.?New high records wera made in the cotton market again today with January contracts selling at 15.84 and May at 16.46 during the afternoon. The close was a little off from the best, but steady hi tone, at a net advance of 2 to 18 points. The market opened barely steady at an advance of 1 to 10 points on the general list, active months being gen erally 5 to 10 points nigner on me strength of the Liverpool market, and covering. Realizing was very heavy a early and prices worked off 3 or 4 [ points from the Initial figures. But r spot houses were buying, there was K some demand from abroad, and offerKi Ings, on the whole, were very well absorbed, with prices gradually working BflL back to the Initial figures during the late afternoon. The readiness with w which the market took the heavv selling,.much of which was attributed to the larger speculative longs, made an Impression on early sellers for a "reaction before the holiday"-and. during the afternoon prices advanced more rapidly on covering by shorts and continued support from the big spot people. After showing a net advance of about 18 to 33 points, realizing caused moderate reactions before the close, but sentiment around the ring continued bullish and many predictions were heard of the 16 i cent cotton before the turn of the year. All three of the big contract markets will be closed qn Saturday (New Year's Day). Reports that two Lancashire mills which have been closed down were resuming operations on full time helped the market during the afternoon, but the chief factor was the talk of an Improved trade demand, and firm southern markets, which, as officially reported, were 1-18 to 3-lflc higher for the day. Friday Is the first January notice day In the local market, but It is reported that "big spot Interim ests are long of January and will take i UP whatever cotton may be tendered, ?\ There were rumors that a fire at Galveston had damaged or destroyed 3,W 800 bales. fl| Receipts at the ports 25,062 bales IP against 22,260 last week ard 91,895 last yearFor the week 200,000 bales against 233.682 last week and 286,777 last year.
