Murphy 6 Co.'s (Inc) Cotton Letter
 p.i.-


 New York, March S.-Bears took advan- tage of d sharp decline at Liverpool to- day by trying to depress OUT market. The closing down of some English mills on short time was used with some effect al- though it was not believed that this would prove permanently harmful at this time when the crop question Is still in the balance and the yield may prove quite moderate. But the fact that the Liverpool stocks are ahead of last year would enable them to keep out of the market for a while. New York opened to s points lower but soon rallied. The loss was occasioned more by receipts than-foreign mill news, in fact a decline was hailed with satisfaction by many who wished to get in at lower prices. Shorts were liberal buyers and Wall Street bought on a fair scale. Liverpool lost 1-2 points today. Receipts at ports today estimated at 25,000 against 16,00o The visible supply of cotton of all kinds during the week is now 44l0O0 against 77.000 more last week. The American sup ply lost IF. GOO during the week and is now 3326.O0O. At the same time it must be borne in mind that the total visible supply is still ahead of last year by 300, 900 and the American is ahead by over 200.- GOO. The weekly trade reports were less bullish but reports continued to pour in as to small stocks at uncounted towns and the liklihood of greatly reduced acre. age with decreased sales of fertilizers and farm work greatly behind in all sec tions

The Financier's Statement.

New York, March S.-The Financier says: The statement of the New York Associated banks this week showed loss of s, 972. 900 cash of which $7.904,0o0 was specie and M,06,9O0 legal tenders. The loss of cash, as estimated from the traceable movements of money during the week was $sS9, 300. This, however, did not include the average of the loss resulting from the shipment of gold to Europe February N -nor the average of one sixth of the amount shipped on Saturday last These averages together amounted to $2.100.000 The entire amount exported on Thursday of this week seems to have been included in the official statement This Is the first time since January II that a decrease has been recorded in this item. The deposits were reduced $11, ,S21,- GOO. which amount Is only $240, 400 less than the aggregate of the loss of loans and of cash, hence the return harmonizes. The striking feature of the statement was the loss in surplus reserve. This was reduced by $6.017.5oo to S. 95S ,425 or S6, 75S,- ESQ below the surplus at the correspond ing period year ago. It is noteworthy that the above is the lowest amount of surplus recorded since October 20, 1900, when 1t was $2,947, 700: and also that on March 17 of that year the reserve was S2.6S6.4 425. The net loss of specie by eight of the Wall Street banks was S, 100, coo The most important changes in loans were shown by five of the largest banks which lost S5.200.000 net

New Orleans, March s.-Liverpool sue sumbed to the influence of spinner's talk of short time and declined to the extent of 1-2 64 in deliveries, while spots were marked off 1-32 with the tone called cas- fer. This course of the English market induced additional selling for the long account here at the opening. causing ini- tial prices to show set back of some 10 points, but a good demand was rem dered by those who had taken profits around the extreme advance. though still entertaining a favorable view of the sit uation, and a partial recovery was readi- ly established after which steady tone prevailed. Closing quotations are to points lower than yesterday. The con- sensus of opinion seems to lean in favor of some reaction, as the advance has been sufficiently rapid to satisfy ordi- nary bulls, considering that the perpen- dicular drop in receipts has not yet ma terIalized. This is not to state. however, that sentiment has changed to dsfavor. The friendly feeling to the market is still greatly in evidence, but the disposition seems to be to patiently await further encouraging deyelopments.

H. & B. Beers Cotton Letter.

New Orleans. March s.-As Liverpool advices were discouraging our market opened ' to lower advanced 5 to ! shortly after on outside buying, but eased off later on the large estimate for New Orleans receipts Monday closing at a net loss of to points on the day. Egyptian receipts for the week were 110.- Oo0 cantars against 150.0o0 last year. ag- gregating 5,966.000 from September 1 to date against 4.301, 900 last year. Port and interior receipts were liberal and for the indications do not point to any marked decrease as was anticipated. Cables from Liverpool say trade is unsatisfactory and spinners talk of running on short time in the Roytorf district. Manchester cables that 2,000, 900 spindles working coarse counts in that district have already en- tered into a short time agreement. The discouraging outlook to textile trade on the continent, combined with combine short in Great Britain and high prices now prevalent had tendency to check buliish enthusiasm. Still continent con tinues favorable to the article. After such 8 rapid advance we suggest that our friends be very conservative in fu- ture operations.
