Cotton Circular.
New ORLEANS, La, Nov 5.-Atwood,
Violet q Co. say:
Futures Liverpool was depressed to day,
opening and closing weak at a decline of
to &c. Both New Orleans and New York
naturally sympathized, but the steady GOV e
ering by shorts have made less decline
here than there. Whether taking out such
a large short interest in both markets will
prove bear argument, as thereby it leaves
more long interest," depends upon the
shorts largely If they continue covering
the market will be sustained. If the longs
weaken further we shall probably decline.
The sentiment is in favor of the
short side. The semi weekly interior
movement reported by our exchanges 10.
day at eleven leading towns against all
this week last year makes the receipts 104,
COO and stocks 2Ol 900 against 10000 and
1856, 600 last year respectively. Port receipts
yesterday $4,000, and today 1890 against
45, 500 this year. F. b.-very good demand
prices obtained today are lie above official
quotations. The demand still continues for
strict middliDg and above.
The spot market was steady for grades
above middling. Lower grades are selling
readily at lie decline. The demand still
for strict and good middling.
Highest of all IN Leavening Power.
