Cotton Letter.

Lee Cotton Letter tc H. D. Cothran &
 Co.,:
 New York, March 16.-Continued pres sure to sell spot cotton by Southern hold CTS overshadowed all else during the early part of the week. It seemed as If every farmer or holder of a bale of cot ton in the South suddenly concluded to sell, as was shown by the larger receipts at Houston and other interior points. The total receipts the first half of this month at the coonted towns were about double as much as during the same time year ago.
 A considerable portion was being car ried by merchants and others who. bought 1t on speculation and refused to sell at

New orIeans Cotton Market.

New Orleans March 16.-There was not nearly as much steam today in the mar ket for spot cotton as during yesterday, notwithstanding which fact a fairly good demand for the staple obtained and the sales for the short hours footed up 16OC bales of spots and 1750 bales to arrive Additionally 1000 bales were tendereed and accepted on contracts. The heavy break in prices at Liverpool had measurably depressing effect upon the market on this side, to the end that factors were unable to obtain previous prices for their hold ings, and such transactions as were re- ported were at figures below yesterdays level. At the noon closing the exchange committee on quotations reported the market quiet.
 The market for contracts was only mod erately active today. There was fairly steady run of trading In the near months. Again conditions were so shaped that the near element had all the best of it. Liv erpool broke badly, partly under the in- fluence of disquieting news anent the po- litical situation in China but principally as the result of the heavy movement at interior points on this side and the very bearish visible supply statement, declin- ing 1-16d on spot and 4-64d to 6-64d on con- tracts.
