Immediately turned firm on
small scare of shorts and on fairly ac-
tive outside buying, the chief basis
for which was a much smaller port
movement than expected, and rather
firmer cables from Liverpool than
We're due on our closing of yesterday.
Then, too, the weather reports from
the greater part of the belt were UNI
favorable giving rains over the CEN
trail section and very low temperature
in the Western districts. Whereas
Ellison's estimate of consumption of
American cotton this year was ex-
pected to be about 10, SOC, 900 bales, the
official figures to-day were 10,400 900
bales. In addition to these bullish
influences were favorable reports from
spinning centers here and abroad, and
reports that Southern spot markets
were again supported by active COW
ering by dealers who had sold last fall
for shipments in January. The first
wave of buying sent May up to S.14c
and January to S.1Sc. Liverpool
quickly regained the slight opening
decline and sent buying orders here.
Everything seemed to point to firmer
market for the time being. Just when
every one was looking for an addi-
tional manifestation of strength on
the markets part there was a sharp

accounts, started by a large estimate
for to-morrow's Houston receipts and
for larger showing of interior towns
receipts than expected. The semi
weekly interior town statement was
particularly bearish, giving record re-
ceipts for this week as compared with
previous years. From S.14c May went
off to S.07c. A large estimate for to-
morrow's New Orleans receipts served
TO check any positive attempt to rally
the market in the early afternoon.
Speculation fell off to slim proportions,
and was almost entirely of a profess
sional character. In the last hour
there was marked change for the
better, and prices jumped to new high
err prices for the day on reports that
the Boer war was about settled. Shorts
were excited buyers on the advance.
The market closed very steady, net
unchanged to seven points higher.

NEW ORLEANS CoTToN Futures
New Orleans, Jan. 2S.-Cotton futures
Murphy & Co.'S Cotton Letter.

New York, Jan. 2S.-Preparations
were made for a lower market this
morning, but there was no decline, but
instead a few points advance was es-
tablished simply because of a prepon-
derance of buyers. Sellers were active
in expressing their views, but refrained
from backing them. The movement at
the ports was below last year and this
in itself sufficed to influence many in
favor of present prices, on sentimental
grounds the estimate being for $1,000
against $4,000 last year. Sentiment
also hepled from a weather point of
view in as much as very low temporal
ture still prevailed in the Southwest
more especially in North Texas and
Arkansas. After gaining points the
market again turned weak and ruled
dull. Cables showed only slight
changes. Houston receipts were run
ming ahead of expectations. Receipts at
ports so far are 5,713,000 against $751;
900 last year. Exports since the open
ing of the season are 4,410.000 against
1872 900 last year. The latter feature
does much to maintain bull confidence.
Europe is piling up cotton in such
quantities as to suggest either decided
belief in only a moderate crop or in
trade being so satisfactory as to con-
sumo all that Is made, be it 10000, 900
or 1875, 900. At last accounts Liver
pool held 100000 bales more than last
year OF late Liverpool has not been

Port receipts thus far for the week are

lison has publicly announced his reduc-
ton of American consumption to 1400,-
600, or 100000 less than his former fig
ures, which was brought about by the
unsatisfactory textile conditions exist
ing in Europe. The rumor that the
Boer war had been settled may be so,
yet it is rather doubtful, considering
the number of firms here having Eng
llsh connections who have not received
any news corroborating the same. Re-
ceipts will be the principal factor in de-

Hubbard Bros. & Co... Cotton Letter.

New York. Jan. 2S.-The effect of the
cold wave is expected to be felt in the
movement by the end of the week and
as Liverpool did not decline as sharply
as expected the market opened steady,
rallying quickly from the first prices
After the first half hour there was a
slow recession under the continued
heavy movement at Houston. Semi
weekly receipts We're some 1000 below
the early estimates, and the shipments
fell off in the same proportion. Stocks
show an increase of some 5000 bales.
The prevalent idea is that the move
ment will fall off on account of the
cold wave and rain in the South, and
this will make itself felt in the price
before the end of the week Ellison's
circular points to a consumption of
1O,400,0O0 bales American, a reduction
from the previous estimate of 10000.
The outside feeling is little less bull
ish, because of the continued heavy
movement.
