New York, Feb. F.-Riordan & Co. say of
cotton to-day: The steadiness of Liverpool
to-day was an unpleasant surprise to the
! bears, who had been made somewhat over
co tident by the decline of last week. The
opening was at an improvement OF points
March selling on the call at 7,74C. The receipts,
excepting at New orleans. were only moder-
ate, aad during the forenoon the tone grew
| hrmer and there was a gradual hardening OF
| prices. March had advanced to 7.79c and the
tendency was still upward when the announce
ment that the New Orleans receipts to-mor-
| row would be about S,C0J bales checked the
advance. Many OF the room traders. who had
| bought an hour before, hastened to sell o ut
| their purchases, and there was a quick re &C
| tiOn in which most of the gain since the open
ing, was lost The close was steady with Z 75c
| bid for March. If those who still hold cotton
| in the interior of the south would take their
time about marketing the staple they would
| probably be rewarded by much higher prices
| traders will be influenced by the receipts
and by nothing else"
New York, FEB. 5.-Alwood Violet & Co.
| say of cotton today Our Impressions of
| Saturday have so far been correct, as the
shorts covered quite freely this morning. and
| the total advance of the day was at one time
| 10 points; the closing, however. showing a
| loss from the highest of points. Although
| port receipts to-day are quite free, amounting
| to u 0OO bales against is 900 bales last year
| and 20 % IN 1890. the interior sources of sup
| ply show considerable reduction OF the weekly
! movement, VIII n may more than acct any
| gain Al ports TO- the seven days, ending Fri
| day next. We notice decidedly less Gggres-
| sive feeling AGAINST the market. Liverpool
| Unexpectedly gave strength TO the market by
| improving one point whereas in conseQ uence
Of the CABLES that We and others received on
| saturday, a drop or or was antiC1 pated.
| while receipts at Houston. St Louis and
| Memphis to-day are much smaller than last
year. Another feature is that their ship
| ments are larger, thus reducing their stock
! materially. The stocks will come to the port
IN a few days but whether they viii add very
much to the port movement on any one day
| will depend. At any rate, an addition to the
| port movement will be at the expense
| of reduction to the interior
points and while the port re :eipts
show from day to day, 1t is only on Friday
that the reduction of the weekly interior
stocks at the enumerated towns is made
/ known officially through the reports OF the
exchanges Out Of the movement at the ports
. TODAY New Orleans has contributed more
than half owing to the Ma 'di Gas festivities,
which always being large pts at this
time owing to the fact that the visitors com
bine business largely with pleasure"
