 New Orleans, January 3-An advance of 1-16 on spots in Liverpool failed to fayora- bly, affect our opening for deliveries, which was at two points decline from yesterday s closing. Liverpool closed with unchanged quotations on near months, and half point lower on distant positions. After the early hour large buying by the bull interests failed to hold the price, which declined about five points below opening and-Teft off at about lowest for the day. Port re- ceipts continued rather free, being some what larger than generally expected. So far this week 14o,066 against 11S, 793. last year. There was considerable selling of long cotton today by outside interests which added somewhat to the weight of the market -' %
 Several of the Southern ports quote an advance of 1-16 cent on spots, but sales reported are generally small. With the late narrow markets purchases on weak periods has been the best policy, and it looks that this course was wiseSt to pur- sue for some time to come.

Murphy 6 -ompany's Stock Letter.


 New York, January 3.-The chief influ- ence affecting the market upon the open ing of business was an unsettling one, namely an advance in the Bank of En- gland rate of discount from to 5 per cent This is the first advance made in the bank rate in six months and while it has been expected for sometime that the rate would be advanced today it had not been thought that such an extensive raise would have been made. In consequence of the act of the banks management the London mar ket generally weak with declines ap- parently in the American quarter, which in some cases extended to fully one point The most severe declines in early dealings were in Northern Pacific. Burlington and St. Paul It was in these cases also that the dealings were most active. Sugar was extensively dealt in, showing decided strength at one time, but near the close became quite weak.

COTTON MARKET ;.
 WAS TRIPLE DULL Fluctuations in Values Not So Extensive as on Wednesday SPECULATION WAS ACTIVE Though Prices Were Lower at the Close the Undertone Favored
 Bull Market and Strong Bear
 Pressure Was Lacking.
SPECULATION WAS ACTIVE

New York, Jan. 3.-Cotton speculation was not so active today nor were the fluctuations in values so extensive as re- corded yesterday. Nevertheless the under tone favored bull market and at no time was there the slightest evidence of bear pressure. Proft-taking from time to time brought about a small set back in values, most of which were regained in covering. On the first call the market was steady and two points higher to one lower; the Liverpool cables were conflicting. The trade was mixed in its opinion in this con- necton and in the absence of vital other chages held off for something to give them a cue.
 The latter came in the shape of smaller receipts than anticipated and rumors that spot cotton were again higher pretty much throughout the South. Covering soon be- came popular while Wall street and West ern buying developed on small scale. Prices quickly responded to this support and at the best level were 2Gl4 points above the close yesterday. Before midday how ever, profit making carried values down 8 @12 points and fo the rest of the session business was sluggish and quite of pro- feSsional turn.

Murphy. & Co.'S Cotton Letter.

New York, Sept. IA decline of 6
to 10 points took place in the early cot
ton market as result of the attempt
on the Presidents life. Whatever may
be the result of wounds, the feeling
was that the market would continue on
its usual course subject only to possi-
BILE monetary influences according to
the character of reports from Buffalo.
Sellers made no attempt TO avail them
selves of the opportunity to depress the
market. although a few weak holders
hastened to liquidate. Generally
speaking, the view was entertained
that prices are going to rule according
to the crop news, and receipts and, es-
pecially as to the date of frost. In
the Liverpool market prices went off
Az points, and it was stated that many
in the trade there went home long of
the market. New York rallied after
the opening and while there was lit
tie in the way of business a quite hope
full feeling prevailed as to the future.
Port receipts for the to-day, 5000,
against $4,000 last year. Showers were
indicated for portions of Texas. There
is a feeling that cotton at present
will, before long, realize the fact. The
recent bureau report has been ana
lyzed by the close, and careful statis-
ticians who declare that they see in
it a crop not exceeding ten million
bales. Claims of the biggest crop on
record are heard here. and there, but
it is known that these emanate in
quarters where a large short interest
exists, AS matter of fact there is no
more warrant to-day for calculating
on a crop Of 100000 bales than on

heavy volumes, and naturally we'll dis
tributed in view of the tremendous
shock to confidence at large by reason
Of the affair at Buffalo. The London
market was closed over one of the US
ual summer holidays, so no influence
was exerted from that direction. Very
wide fluctuations characterized the
trading, and many sharp recoveries
from the extreme points of depression
were recorded, but as was to be ex-
pected, the dealings retained an ex-
ceedingly feverish tone. initial declines
in the active stocks ranged from 2 TO
points. In a few instances, the lowest
prices were made at the opening, and
such rallies as occurred were scarcely
commensurate with the extreme losses
scored. The announcement that the
clearing houses commission Of the as
ISOLATED banks had taken immediate
cognizance of situation, and were pre-
pared to do all that was possible to al
leviate it had a somewhat reassuring
effect. At the same. time, sentiment,
and confidence were plainly terribly
shocked by the attempted assassination
of the President. Supporting orders
were indeed frequent in number of
directions, but those in introducing
them plainly made no attempts to bid
up prices, and took over stocks from
demoralized sellers at as low a point
as was possible. The United States
Steel issues; and the Industrials reflect
ed severe pressure, and rapid declines
took place in a Central Pacific, Ten
nessee Coal and Iron and Pacific Mail.
The local traction shares weakened
along with the remainder of the mar
ket with sharp loss appearing in
Brooklyn Rapid Transit So far as the
market Is concerned, the only point In
correspondence with the occasion of
the assassination of President Garfield
may be found in the fact that upon
both occasions the market was quoted
at a very high level. There the similar
ity of conditions ceases.
The bank statement showed a de-
crease in surplus reserves amounting
to $5,004.000 which reduced the banks
excess holdings Of cash to 6,915, 900 with
decrease in actual cash amounting to
$40, 100 900, which was nearly twice as
much as any Of the preliminary esti-
mates. The loan account also showed a
striking decrease. This was not unex-
pected in view of the heavy liquidation
of the week In the stock market, but
bank officers confessed their inability
to account for the heavy, and unlocked
for shrinkage in actual cash.
