NEW ORLEANS MARKETS..
WEDNESDAY, May "a, 1913

WEDNESDAY, May ID, 1913.
The market, generally speaking, con.
tinues in n healthy condition, and a large
business has again been transacted in some
articles since our last. The demand for
Western Produce in particular is active,
and owing to the large quantities diverted
to other places, our own market is in ma.
ny instances bare of stock, and prices have
n continued upward tendency.
Ceftoa.-In our last review we stated
that the cotton market had closed with n
dali feeling and downward tendency in
prices. On Saturday tho market main.
tanned the same quiet appearance, and the
sales only amounted 10 1900 bales, buyers
being indisposod TO operate before the re.
ceipt of later dfiees from Europe. On
Sunday the Great Westerns account
came 10 hand, reporting u further decline
of llsd. in the Liverpool market, in con.
sequence of tho very heavy imports, and
intelligence from this side, realizing in full
the anticipated estimates of the CROP
This news was regarded in n very unta.
vorabls light by European buyers, who
have since then abstained from operating,
and the business of the past two days only
comprises 1000 bales, which in most ms.
tances has been effected at a decline Of
Ilac. The market, however, is so irregu.
lar, that we cannot make any material al.
t~eratiou in our quotations.
The receipts since the 10Th inst. are
1868 bales. and the exports 6,5i4, leav-
ing a stock on hand of 03,5S2 bales.
