Murphy d Co.,. Cotton Letter.

New York, December 2.-The market advanced to points the first hour. The advances from Liverpool were quite sat- isfactory, prices there showing a fine ad- vance despite indications of heavy re- ceipts estimated at over 50.0O0 as against 4O,0OO last year, but as this is regarded simply as Christmas cotton, neither New York nor Liverpool attach much impor- tance to heavy receipts at this time. Ac- cording to Manchester reports trade was better with India.
 Four leading Texas towns show a move ment to date for season of g per cent under last year. and as facts are stub born things, comment Is unnecessary. The advance was we'll maintained. The local shorts covered. The Chronicle says that the weather during the week has been quite unsatisfactory. The temperature has been very low as a rule, as some points Rain has been quite general and ex- cessive in a few districts; picking has been interrupted where not already com pleted, and the movement of crop to mar ket has been interferred with. As an evi- dence of shortness of crop we have re- ports from Texas that parties fin that state are buying cotton seed hulls in New Orleans for the purpose of feeding the stock. This Is considered conclusive evil dence that the crop is short in Texas. and we give the report for what 1t is worth.

holders of old contracts and the closing tone is very steady with quotations five points higher than yesterday. Traders are generally disappointed at the ab- sence of the customary easy tone of prices that was expected to result from liduidation of both spots and contracts before the holidays.
 Heavy liquidation has been accom- piished but developments have been of such a nature as to cause ready ab- sorption of all offerings and instead of becoming easier. prices improved in the process.
 With the expanding growth of sen- timent in favor of the market If receipts show no increasing tendency in the near future it is quite probable that prices will be forced materially higher.

 New Orleans. December 21.-There was scarcity of cables explaining Liver pools advance of 3-64d in deliveries and 1-16d in spots, but explanations were quite unnecessary as it is evident that the continued moderate tendency of the movement is increasing serious doubt regarding large crop ideas abroad, and considering the general impression that foreign spinners are poorly supplied with raw cotton 1t would not be surpris- ing if the English market developed greater strength within brief period. On this side the good feeling was sup plemented by an increased speculative ccmand that gradually forced prices up notwithstanding liberal profit talkin< by
