COTTON FUTURES.

New York. Nov. 28.-The cotton
market opened steady in tone with
prices, to points lower, a slim re-
sponse to weak Liverpool cables and to
predictions from the bear side for an
increase in receipts. And Immediate
ly after the call the smaller holders
sold out as a mere matter of precau-
ton, while some of the bear leaders
endeavored to shake out larger lines
of cotton held by insiders and inves-
tors. But in contrast with the English
market news was bad weather and a
bountiful supply of bullish domestic
news. Moderate to heavy rains over
the eastern and central portions of
the belt, and unseasonably low tenn
peratures in the West were said to be
delaying gathering of the crop. jan
uary rose to 1850 after the call, but as
a general thing the market did not
vary much from the opening bids in
the absence of active outside demand,
or of strong bull leadership. Private
cables attributed the heaviness abroad
to active profit-taking and pressure
from the bear side.
The market closed steady, net un-
changed to 3 points lower.

Murphy e. Co.'s Cotton Letter.

New York, Nov. 23.-The course of
the Liverpool market this morning was
quite disappointing to local bulls who
expected an uninterrupted upward
movement in prices. At Liverpool,
prices lost 3 points, and this caused
quite a little scare, but opening figures
here were down only to the extent Of
2 to points as a result of timid hold
ers, throwing a little cotton on the
market. 1t was suspected that shorts
at Liverpool were growing restless on
fears of a bullish bureau report ten
days hence, and were anxious TO buy
AT best possible prices. Bears at Liver
nool contended that the increase in the
visible supply of $4,000, as compared
with last year should send prices down.
unmindful OF the fact that spots there
to-day sold at 42sd against 1i-i6d
last year, and at New York over cents
lower than last year. Buying orders
were numerous enough to reestablish
last nights Anal figures before the
close. Port receipts to-day 5000

NEW ORLEANS COTTON Futures.



New Orleans, Nov 23.-The increased
offerings of spots from America i~flu-
enced Liverpool unfavorably, and cur
market responded by opening 4@5
points lower, but improved later on
fresh buying, subsequently eased off
lightly on more liberal New Orleans
and Houston estimates, closing at a
net loss of 3@4 points on the day. Re-
ferring to textile trade in this coun-
try, the New York Times, in it's issue
of Nov. 10, says: "The quarterly divi-
dend list of thirty-six Eastern mills
shows a distribution of $2S0,S0O on a
capitalization of $21, ,S01 900 in the cloth
mills, or 1.OS per cent. In the corre-
spending quarter of last year these
mills paid an average of 1.79 per cent.
and nine out of these thirty-six mills
paid no dividends. The returns bear
out what has been said of the inability
OF many of the mills to pay a higher
wage scale and show a profit" From
the above 1t will be seen that the
Northern spinners are not doing as
good business as last year. and as
the returns of last season were not
encouraging then the present prospec-
tive outlook is evidently unsatisfac-
tory. When it is considered that Eu-
ropean textile conditions have also
gone from Dad TO worse, there is nOtn-
ing in the trade situation for the mo-
ment to break the present apathy ex-
hibited generally by spinners through
out the world.
However, the principal sustaining
feature are the light movement and
the expectation of a very small esti-
mate by the bureau on Dec. 8, unless
there is a marked increase in receipts
during the interim. the chances are
the market will rule steady, pending
the issuance of said document.

Hubbard Bros. s Co.'s cotton Letter.

New York, Nov. 2S.-Our market
opened with sales of January at 1910
762c and after selling at 7.65-61c, ruled
at 7.64c at II a. m. Selling against
Southern purchases by exporters was
the cause for the decline in Liverpool
this morning. These advices were con-
firmed by bills of exchange offered this
morning amongst the banks. The open
ing showed the pressure of buying or
ders from the outside based on the ex-
pected government report and these or
ders absorbed the selling against spots.
Fluctuations were within a narrow
range with the trade. looking for
better foreign market tomorrow. Some
cotton is reported as being pointed to-
wards this market for delivery princi-
pally high grades, which will take the
place of the low g0ades in our stock
which are daily being sold at a prem
ium to spinpers. The local temper con-
tinues to be bullish and will not change
even with an increased movement I'M
til after the bureau report. The spot
market was quiet and unchanged.
