COTTON MARKET REVIEW.
Houston Spots Are One-Eighth OF
a Cent Lower.
THE PORT RECEIPTS RATHER HEAVY.
An Unexpected Decline at Liverpool
Caused Weakness In the Amer
lean Markcts-Movenicnt
VlliCc OF 7 ne FUsl,
Houston, Monday, January T..

| Houston. Monday, Januar? II.
The actual loss In futures a. New York
and New orleans today was only @Ts
Tolnis. although shese markets were down
| sia points al one time during the fore
noon. The greatest weakness was dcyol-
onei IN some of the Southern spot mar
keie where Losses ranged from l-i5Ii,c.
The strength of spots has been one Of the
strong features Of the market heretofore
ard the bulls were rather surprised to see
! such a decline In quotations. although spo.
prices are stil above contracts.
Liverpool proved the usual disappoln:
ment This morning futures losing 2iz6ii.
while spots were 1-22d lower. English
spinners reported soG,c decrease in trade
the past week and are rather dubious as
to securing profitable prices a3d a good
market for cotton goods. owing TO the
famine In India and poor crops in other
countries.
The weakness of Liverpool and a heavy
port and interior movement were rcspon-
slbe for the sharp decline on this SIDE,
though large pam of the loss Was re-
COY cred before the close. There are plenty
Of bulls left despite the dragging tend
e1cy of the market. but they are mainly
bulls in voice alone. There is no concer-
trated action, am an advance of ten paints
tomorrow would no doubt cause hundreds
Of longs TO throw their purchases unon
the market Under such a condition sta
tistics count for little or nothing, ard all
theories of a per pendicular drop" in re-
ceipts and ar exhaustion of supplies, are
evidently being dsregarded.
At todays session New York futures
opened easy. at decline of 9 30 points.
March started at 6f fell TO 6.92 by 10
o'clock and then began to advance. The
hishe~t sale was at $50, and the closing
6.Saj,9a. against 7.cSI70l Saturday. May
scld down to 7.o5 early IN the session ,bu.
advanced 10 III by the closing. against
ia Saturday.
In New Orleans March opened at 677.
sold down TO GA by 1920. and then adj
vanced to $50. Final figures were at 7Sdf
G7e against 6.Sln6s2 Saturday. May sold
az G.S5 for the lowest aud G.92 Highest,
closing at 6.9e169i
Houston expects 65co to 7ooo bales to-
morrow, against 5d75 on the same day last
year. The estimate at New Orleans Is
for 1850 20 1850, against 1888.
Edwin h. Violet OF New Orleans wrote
Saturday:
Liverpool stocks of American are slight
~ in excess of la1t year. while the amount
aiicat Is about twice as much. American
port stocks are ahead of both last yer
ana the big crop year. The price of man

Recibe, pues, nuestro modesto obolo
de simpatfas, egregio puertorriqueno,
que tan bien sabes interpreter las aspi-
raciones de nuestro pueblo; que con
tn elocuencia y facil palabra, vienes,
de comarca en- comarca, infundiendo Ell
todos los animos ell noble proposito, de
que vivamos siempre unidos la ga sio-
nalidad espanola que nos dio ell ser;
propositos mucho mas vehementes hoy,
que la esperanza de yer lucir una nueva
aurora, acaricia la mente de los gu
verdaderamente aman la paz el pro-
greso de esta TERRA privilegiada.
Salud, pues, ilustre hermano nuestro:
y que por donde quiera que vayas con-
tinuando la honrosa mission que te has
impuesto, al lado del egregio nombre
de Espana, y ell del honradoy simpatico
general que hoy gobierna los destinos
de est a provincial, vaya undo como TO-
co de luz resplandeciente, ell de nuestro
querido paisano Latis M,e5sog Ricero. =

para poder efectuarlo.
Tambi6n llamaba nuestra atencion ell
que las varillas del cafeto no aparecie-
sen roidas mas que en- la epoca de La TO-
rescencia.
La raz6n de este ultimo fenome-
no La explicaban los campesinos, di-
ciendo que en- esa epoca las varillas
eran dulces.
Don Fermfn Domfnguez nos ha pre-
sentado hoy el dibujo, de tamafio natu-
raj, de un insecto, causa del dano que
sufren los cafetos.
Tiene este insecto unos tres centfme-
tros de largo y gu presencia explica las
objeciones que siempre nos habiamos
hecho.
Don Fermfn Domfnguez,a a la yez que
ha conseguido descubrii ell insecto, ha
encontrado ell medic de destruirlo.
Este medic .ha sido experimentado
por varios hacendados de cafe, con re-
sultado satisfactorio.
Nosotros felicitamos al sefor Domfn-
guez, deseando que los senores hacen
dados de cafe aprovechen las indicacio
nes de aquel senior, logren destruir un
insecto que tanto perjucio causa la
agriculture cafeteria.
