New Orleans Cotton Market.

New Orleans. May 16.-Cotton quiet and steady. Factors seemed to be in an uncertain position. They are laboring under the weight of heavy stocks, largely of an undesirable character, and while as a rule they are willing to unload at every favorable opportunity, the con- sciousness of the fact that there is a ready market for all offerings of high grade cottons, makes them afraid to concede lower values for the poorer goods for fear of affecting values in a general way. This condition of affairs 8 conducive to some irregularity in the 1 market which only disappears under the influence of an occasional spurt of ac- tivity among buyers. Sales, 2150 bales, in- cluding 750 to arrive. The exchange com mittee advanced the prices of the higher grade middling above 1-16c.
 Trading in the market for contracts was again slack today. Some little busi- ness was doing in July deliveries, but apart from the interest shown in that month, operators were not very active In short the market was heavy and neither side of the account seemed in- clined to plunge. Liverpool was un- changed for spots and opened with q brave show of strength on futures, but gradually fell away. In this market prices drifted about a point or two either way. without an actuating cause for the faint fluctuations until late in the ses- sion, when prices became frmer, May closing at 757@7. .5S; June. 7.4SdD75 50; July. 744dD7. .45, while the balance of the list was 5 to points higher.

COTTON TRADERS
 ARE CONSERVATIVE Yesterday Was Used to Settle
 Up All Accounts PRICES HIGHER AT CLOSE. In the Afternoon Pit Shorts Became Nervous and In an Effort to Cover
 Sent July and October
 t Upward.

New York May 16.-Operatons in cot ton futures from start to finish today were conservative and mostly in the way of settlements by room brokers. Shorts were the markets chief supporters. On the opening the tone was quiet and prices unchanged to 1 point higher Soon af- forwards prices began to settle under room selling and southern selling, with July finally selling off to 7.55c. The new crop positions also followed a contrary course to influences and after slightly sympathizing with the weakness in near months turned strong on room buying and worked up to above last nights clos ing. This strength was quite out of line with reports of heavy rains in parts of the southwest belt. Liverpool quickly con- formed to the lower near month prices here and at the close was trife below the previous days final bids
 In the afternoon pit shorts became nerv- ous and in an effort to cover sent July rapidly to 7,69c and October to TIA. There was nothing in the way of news or out side buying orders to cause this change on the part of room brokers. Before the close a slight reaction had occurred mr. der fresh selling for both accounts, based on belief that the short interests had been evened up and a long account created. Again it was feared that Liv- erpool would be sensitive tomorrow to the weather forecast from the south west.
 Closed steady with prices net to 8 points higher.
 New York, May 16.-Cotton, middling, 1-16c; net receipts, 2S1; gross receipts, 766; sales. 11S; stock, 12s,547; exports to Great Britain, 4S3; to the continent, 1251.

in the day by those who sold early on re- ports of good rains in Texas. The desire to cover was caused by rather light es- timated receipts for tomorrow at New Orleans and Houston and the light re- ceipts at the ports today. It Is the gen. eral impression there Is still large long interest in the market for July. Efforts have been made to dislodge these hold ings so far without success, and 1t is be- ginning to cause a nervous feeling among some shorts. Port receipts only 6,9Si bales, against SAY and 4,33O. New Or leans only 1000 to 5000 are expected to- morrow, against 4,319 and 3,232
 At Houston 1900 to 22OO bales, against 3590 and 606.
 Weather throughout the belt Is rather favorable, with advices of rains in Texas Indications now favor a quiet narrow market during the near future unless something turns up to stimulate trade, at the same time we believe purchases of all months on the weak spots are advisable

Murphy 6 co.,o Cotton Letter.

New York, May 16.-The opening sales on Liverpool futures this morning were a shade higher than last nights final quotations, but the close was 1 point lower. The spot sales were only 1000 bales at unchanged prices, 11-32d. The opening here was unchanged. July con- tracts selling at 7.59, after this there was slight decline, when good buying or ders appeared and July advanced to 769 and closed about the highest of the day. The port movement was estimated at 1000 bales against 4000 for the same date last year.
 The estimates for tomorrow are again liberal. Dry weather continues at most points, light rains, however. being re- ported from Houston, Dennison, Fort Worth, Texas, Oklahoma and Fort Smith, Ark
 The outlook at this time of the year Is not very encouraging, and as we have all along predicted, we still believe July contracts a good purchase.

Financial

New York, May 16.-The Commercial Advertisers London financial cablegram says:
 Business here on the exchange today was on an insignificant scale, but the tone was rather more cheerful and only one small failure was announced as the result of the difficult settlement recently completed. It is confidently hoped now that all other troubles of this. character have been averted. The American de- partment was particularly idle, the arbi- trageurs doing very little. On the whole nothing was done. Prices. however, moved within a much narrower range than of yesterday about 1h points on the average. There was some liquidation for the account of defaulting dealers and more wreckage of this kind is expected. The opening in New York hoisted Fries, which were further helped by talk hero of a dividend in July on the first pre- ferred. This strengthened the market generally.
