New orleaf,. Cotton Market.

New Orleans, August 6-Tne only req ture of interest in correction with the market for spot cotton rests in the fact that a manifestly easier feeling has de- yeloped and that trading today has been upon the basis of a definite decline from yesterdays range of prices
 The attitude of Liverpool, which shows a moderate loss in values as compared to Fridays figures, when 1t was confident ly expected to advance at least to the ex- tent of a few points. as the result or the bureau crop report, has rather upset the calculations of the trade at large and buyers are again influenced to hold on for cheaper cotton. Sales 1050 bales, in- ciudiue 250 to arrive. Quotations Ills low ef.
 The market for contracts was fairly active where October and December de- liveries were concerned. but the other months received very little attention from operators and hardly cut figure In de- termining the correct level of values.
 On the first call the market was quite active at a loss of 13 to 15 points. but though a comparatively brisk line of tra- ding was indulged in thereafter, both for Southern and New York accounts, there was no further material change in. the trade level until near the close,
 when prices receded to points addition al.
