NEW ORLEANS CoTvroN MARKET
Murphy & Co.'s Cotton Letter.

New York May 2.-The volume of bust
ness transacted in cotton was quite mod
crate with initial prices to lower.
A number of buying orders preventing
any further decline in the feeling that
market may do better. Liverpool con-
tinues to display nervousness. The fea-
tures of the day was the reported sale
of some one hundred thousand bales of
print cloths. In the judgment of long
headed cotton men the dry goods situa-
ton, especially the trade of spinners Is
well worth watching. The variaus wealth
er statistics throughout from North Caro-
lima to the extreme Southwest were
cloudy weather. Receipts at the various
ports were estimated at 10000, as against
5000. Futures at Liverpool declined about
l to IA for near months, distant months,
Y higher. Heavy shipments from Bonn
bay, continued, the figures, being 19, 0Go
against 5000 last year, while the receipts
$4,000, against 1900. There is good reason
for looking for a decided movement of
cotton at the ports before many days.
Exports have been quite free of late, and
the heavier movement has been largely
due to this fact. With this export cot
ton out of the way, the rush will be over
and it is safe to say that the market
will do considerably better. Accounts
continue to come in as to the scarcity of
seed and, notice of rep.arting, and are
attracting some attention in quarters it
was first commended the claims of which
has been exaggerated. There is strong
suspicion here that some sections of Tex
as are badly in need of rain and the uues-
ton of moisture during the month OF
May is accepted as the utmost import
ance. Only Loco bales of cotton have re-
ported New York the past three months.
and this has no little to do in helping
maintain prices.

II. & q. beers Cotton Letter.

New Orleans May 2.-The marked
steadiuess OF the American markets was
ignored by Liverpool, which ruled easier
in response to poor Manchester advices
superinduced by the heavy receipts
Prices here in sympathy opened to 3
lower, but shorts covering Immediately
after, occasioned an advance of to 3, sub
sequently however. the large weekly
Bombay receipts and the heavy April
movement into sight as well as the weak
ness of spots, caused a break of four from
the top, making the net loss 4 points on
old crop months and one on the new. The
amount brought into sight during April
was 4S9,000 being a record breaker, eN-
ceeding the previous largest April move
ment in 1899 by 5000, and shows an in
crease of 206 000 over April of last year.
The total marketed TO May l is 10000
over last year, and all indications from
now out point to a continuance of excess
in the movement as compared to last
wear. Weather conditions for the past
two weeks throughout the belt have been
unusually favorable for planting; there
fore, considering this feature, the Excess
siveiy large receipts the stagnation OF
textile trade, and the restricted demand
for spots, it would seem as if the pres
ent values cannot be maintained, unless
later on some serious setback to.the crop
were to take place.

by the poor trade accounts received from
Manchester and the large receipts in the
South, coupled with the offerings from the
primary markets. A portion of the decline
was recovered on American buying orders
al the close. The market has been an
exceedingly dull one, the commission
houses being without orders except TO
close existing contracts. Our local traders
are without any large interest. They see
nothing in the commercial or crop situa-
ton to induce purchases, and yet the
proximity of speculation in stocks pre-
vents them from advising sales Receipts
