sideration of the pros and cons, however,
do not disclose any inherent weakness in
the situation; on the contrary, chances
are clearly favorable to higher prices OF
course, in the reckoning the demand is
counted as a factor making for strength,

teal situation is encouraging, there Is
another and monetary reason for contin-

three-fourths of the stock in first hands

Liverpool mail advices on cotton state:
Until we know something definite about
the size of the crop we do not think
there is much chance of a decline in
prices If the movement of the next four
or six weeks exceeds that of last year,
it will be useless to talk of an advance,
but II 1t should show a falling off. we
will have high prices once more and this
again will be regulated later on by the
outlook for the growing crop of 190l-o2
Accounts from Manchester are fiat and
business is restricted in all directions.
From the continent we hear very deplor-
able accounts from spinners and weavers
We may have enough cotton to go around
if we include increased supplies from In
dia, but even with this, unless short
time intervenes we will have nothing to
spare in the autumn. Rarely in our re-
collection has the market been watching
statistics so closely. but then rarely have
supply and demand been so evenly ball
anced. margin of couple of hundred
thousand bales may make the difference
between sufficiency and want The pres
ent apathy may be ascribed to this at
titude of doubt
Bremen mail advices say: Even the re-
cent smaller receipts have not had the
effect of creating any more demand
among spinners. Business is practically
at standstill, although our market is
che lowest In the whole world. 1t remains
to be seen whether or not a further de-
cline in prices will bring about any
change"
The following resume of the markets
will show the tone and quotations at the
close to-day:
The Savannah morning news., 1901-03-01

New Orleans, Feb. 2S.-Early Liverpool
advices were up to expectation, but the
heavy tenders of 1890 bales occasioned
casiness later, and ali the Improvement
was lost Our market responded by open
ing to points lower, advanced to
points on shorts covering, eased off near
the close, making the net loss on the
day l to points.
Notwithstanding Liverpool has import
ed 100000 of American this year against
1,319,000 last year or CSC, 600 in excess of the
stock, shore and afioat. up to last Fri
day, there was $4,000 against $4,000, or
an increase of only 10000. 1t therefore
stands to reason that the surplus of i'm
portations have gone into spinners hands
swelling the invisible supply, proving that
the English spinners are we'll supplied
with the raw article, and that the visible
stock held in Liverpool is principally spec
ulative cotton.
To demonstrate the logic of this argu-
ment, we find that textile trade conditions
in England are not as satisfactory as an
ticlpatod for, according to the Board of
Trade returns, the claims of good trade
in England are not borne out by facts
and consequently since spinners have
done 20 per cent. less business in yarn
exports, and per cent. less in cloths
under last year, and have imported $780,
V'0 bales more American than last year
to date, 1t stands TO reason they must
have very large supplies of either the
raw article or the manufactured products

March and Others 3 Lower.
New York. Feb. 2S.-March manipula-
ton was the sole feature of interest on
the local Cotton Exchange to-day. The
rest of the list was quiet and scarcely va.
ried points from the closing of yester-
day. Sentiment was peculiarly mixed
with bearish leaning, yet shorts and be-
levers in lower prices generally feared

spot month was dominated by a strong

points lower, a sympathetic move with
weakness in the English market, where a
sharp decline from the opening had re-
suited under liquidation brought out by
the issuance of 1000 bales notices Re-
ceipts at the ports were much larger than
expected, while the investment manifest
ed positively no substantial interest III the
market. Following the cali, March fell
rapidly under selling by outside, and tired
room longs, and in the absence of any,
thing like stubborn support. 1t was re-
ported that $4,000 March notices were put
out, and this Helped to undermine the
March position A decline of 10 points WAS
recorded, after which there was a bare
two-point change until nearly the close.
1t was reported that the parties who had
issued March notices, were buying the
same option in the pit at Is points under

Murphy 4 co.'s STOCK Letter.

New York Feb. est Paul and Sugar
resumed the prominent position in the
stock market this morning at opening
that they occupied in the final dealings OF
yesterday. Both stocks were strong
again and active. The heavy dealings In
st. Paul seemed to be based upon the mo-
ton that at the forthcoming dividend de-
claration the management would declare
an extra scrip dividend to the sharehold-
ers representing the heavy outlays male
out of the earnings during the past ave
years. Sugar Refining opened at AN ex-
IRENE advance of nearly per cent. from
Its final figures of yesterday, but the stock
did not retain the whole of it's rise. Re-
ports were current that here is some pos
sibility of the company acquiring the Ar
buckle refinery. but for the most part
the advance in the stock seemed to be
owing to expectations that the dividend
to be declared next week will be at
higher rate than that declared in De-
cember. The general market was firm
and interest was well distributed. Con-
spieuous features of the railway list were
Missouri Pacific, Kansas and Texas,
Northern Pacific and the Reading shares.
Delaware and Hudson was also partieu-
larly strong. The Steel Industrfais were
less active than Ger some days, and moved
within narrow limits. London furnished
a higher range of prices for our stocks,
and were moderate buyers In this market.

Hubbard Bros. q Co.'S cotton Letter.

New York. Feb. 8.-Lfverpooi refused
to follow our improvement of yesterday,
being affected by the large Bombay
movement and the tenders on the Febru-
airy delivery. Cotton is not rendered in
Liverpool unless it is very difficult to sell
on the spot, and the fact the tenders
there were 10000 bales had more effect
on the market than here. Tenders were
made here of some $4,000 bales, but the
notices were quickly stopped at the dis
count under May. Those who sold March
replaced them with the distant deliveries
causing a narrowing between the two
markets. This tender came as surprise
to the trade, after yesterdays strength in
March. and quite unsettled the traders,
