New York, Jan I5-The Suns cotton arti-
! Gle says: 1t was an active, nervous market,
| with more or less apprehension of an in
| creased crop movement. owing to the re cent
! advance in prices The receipts at the ports
| to-day we're pretty LIBERAL and there was con-
! siderable realizing by local longs, including,
! 1t is understood, some OF the largest houses.
| The south sold freely, especially New Orleans.
| The receipts at the principal interior towns
| reported daily were comparatively small but
| New Orleans expects l., 900 bales tomorrow,
against 1851 bales on the same day
! last week. and l31Ol bales last wear
| There was quite good demand from local
| shorts, and Europe also bought. Liverpool
remained about stationary in spite OF the de-
cline here on saturday, and good spot bust
ness was done there. Prices were 10 points
! hig her here owing to the Liverpool advances
! and good buying, but they reacted on realiz-
ing. and after frequent fluctuations closed 4
and points lower than on Saturday. The
sales were 226,200 bales. Liverpool
| advanced u point and closed steady,
with spot sales of 1880 bales at
were quiet and steady and cloths were
steady. New Orleans advanced points, but
lost this and declined 8 to points. Spot
cotton here was 1-l6c. lower, with sales of
70 bales for spinning and deliveries OF 700
| bales. Southern spot markets were gener-
| ally quiet and unchanged. but New Orleans
was easy. New Orleans sold 4, 900 bales The
| receipts at the ports were 26,770 bales against
| 2S0l6 IL day last week and % O06 last year.
! Total thus far this week 46,5ll against 80. 104
| thus far asst week One firm said: What
| has given cotton so much statistical strength
! recently has been the rapid reduc-
! ton at the interior points, not only actual,
! but particularly, as compared with last year.
! This week will inaugurate, since Sept. last
! the first weekly reduction from the amount
that came into sight during the correspond
! ing week last wear the indications being
| about 600 against 900. At the moment,
! however, the necessary stimuant for the
| strengthening of the future market is a light
| movement and this may possibly lie brought
ABOUT Dy t9e exacthess OF the spot holders In
| the south, for the crop that is being held at
| the visible points as well as what is on plan
| tation and unenumerated points,
New York, Jan. l5-Riordan s. Co. say OF
! cotton to-day: THE course of the market
! today was a disappointment to the bulls.
! Liverpool sent up good report and our
! opening was at an advance. March sold on
| the call at 26c, but that was the highest Of
| the day New Orleans wired heavy selling
! orders, under which the advance was soon
| lost. The decline caused a general selling
| movement, IN the course Of which great
| deal of long cotton was liquidated and which
| resulted in sharp break, March selling down
| to Toe. In the final dealing there was
| slight recovery from the lowest and the close
was steady with l2c bid for March. The re-
| ceipts today were only moderate, but the
! selling during the afternoon hours was so
heavy and general that for the moment lit
tie attention seemed to be paid to the re-
ceiptS. If the movement continues small. as
the bulls expect the market will soon recover
to-day's loss; otherwise, we may go lower"
