New York, Feb. 1O-Traders in cotton
futures called halt to-day, In view of
the unprecedented weather in the South
ditions still In force, speculati ton so far
as outsiders were concerned showed a de-
cided falling off. On the opening cali
there was steady feeling, with prices
unchanged to points higher, and for a
time thereafter the frmness was main
tanned, the accounts received from the
cotton belt regarding the weather condi-
tons being of a sensational character. Az
the market failed to improve, however, a
moderate selling movement set in. and
prices gradually worked off 2d3 points I'M
til indications pointed to an abrupt let
up in the movement from remote interior
points, while the official bulletins regard
ing the general movement had much
stronger average than had been looked
for. On this there was some rally with a
small reaction on the statement that the
Bremen stock of cotton was increased 1OO-
900 bales by the discovery of an error in
previous calculations. The scope of the
market, from the highest to the Lowest
prices of the day, way Continued TO about
points. During the afternoon the hest
tation of local traders to assume further
obligations was very marked
The total business for the session was
probably the smallest for some time past
The close was steady at net unchanged
prices to points advance, covering hav-
ing set in near the close and caused a
sharp rally.

New York. Feb 10.-Hubbard Bros. e.
Co. say of cotton to-day: "Our cable ad-
vices report better demand for the high
grades in Liverpool from the continent. az |
the main factor in advancing that market
to-day was the falling off in the movement
generally attributed to the severe cold |
weather over the cotton belt
The movement of the crop Is certainly |
light enough to cause a sharp advance |
were there not some reason for believing |
the weather was interfering with the |
marketing of the crop Locally the mar |
ket opened firm and gradually advanced |
on the light receipts at the interior towns |
which pointed to 5000 bales. against 5000 |
bales last week, and 10000 last season.
From the top there was a slow liquidation /
by the buyers Of last week, which carried
quotations below last evening excepting |
on March. which was well supported all |
day apparently with the idea Of attract
ing cotton towards this market, which is
now the highest. Monday will be a holi- |
day here.
THE temper Of the trade continues bull
ish, believing the light receipts will change
the opinion regarding the crop. 1t is un-
derstood the stock at Bremen on a recount
shows an increase of 10000 bales. A dun
afternoon was followed by sharp demand
in the few minutes. closing the market
very steady. The trade looked for higher
