COTTON MARKET
Weak Under Pressure of Long
Stuff and Selling.
RALLIED TOWARD CLOSE
Large Crop Estimates From the South
Gave the Market a Setback
and Stool In the Way of
Bull Support.

New York. January 6-The cotton mar
ket opened steady with prices to
points lower and further sold off after the
call to 1893 for March and sol for May
under pressure of long stuff and bear
selling the former being shaken out and
the latter encouraged by weak Liver
pool cables and promise of heavy port
receipts. Commission houses and Wall
Street sold in a feverish way during the
call and some cotton was forced on the
market by foreign interests. But before
the hour closed the market took dis
tinct turn and rallied nearly to Satur-
days final bids on a furry of cover
ing and light room buying
A single room operator bought few
bales Of May at sos and soon afterward
bid S.06 for more. Around this level COM
mission houses once more figured as
sellers while new buying received a
check. Big estimates for tomorrows
Houston receipts and larger crop esti-
mates from the South gave the market
set back before midday and at the sam
time stood in the way of aggressive bull
support. just when the market was be-
ginning to pick up a little new strength
on covering early in the afternoon, New
Orleans sent an estimate of 21000 to 3D.
900 bales for tomorrow's receipts and this
again sent prices downward May reach
ing sol before covering once more turn
ed the course of fluctuations upward. The
fact that Southerns spot markets held
firm and that clearances for export far
exceeded port receipts, led the bears to
sell cautiously. At the late session the
market was very nervous and senitive
to orders from either side The close was
steady at prices net l to 4 points lower.

Murphy G. Co.. Cotton Letter.

New York, January 6.-The market was
s points slower at the opening, and there
was little interest in the proceedings.
Cables were somewhat disappointing,
and there was a good deal of uncertainty
as to the receipts. While there was no
sign of sharp falling off, bulls were
confident such would be the case, while
on the other hand, bears believed they
would continue on a liberal scale for
some time as compared with last year.
Quite a number of southern bulls have
been selling Of late, feeling convinced of
uselessness of attempting to change sem
timent in regard to receipts and intend
ing to buy back when the present search
ty was over. Considerable May changed
hands here at sos. New York recovered
most of the lost ground as the morning
advanced, but subsequently there was
fresh decline, which carried prices below
Saturday because of the fact that Hous-
ton receipts for tomorrow promised to ex-
coed last year. Liverpool was / to points
higher. The difficulty of arriving at
definite conclusion as to the size of the
crop, as recognized everywhere, by COM
pairing with certain years. we find the
movement up to date indicating a yield
this year as small as the lowest on rec
ord, while comparing with other years,
the heaviest on record, or even greater is
indicated The public, however, have
been educated to compare with the pre-
vious year, and this has brought about
the present cutting away from small fig
ures, and at the same time 1t will be
well to bear in mind that prices have
been gradually going to pieces, as re-
ceipts continue to increase, and the ques-
ton now arises, are they not low enough?
The effect of very small government fig
ures, which occurred on December 8 last,
has been entirely lost, and we are now
where we stood before the figures ap-
peared; hence with prices now about 2
cents lower than last year, the question
Is, has crop of last years size not been
discounted.

Cotton Letter.

Lee & Co.'S Letter to Cothran & Co.
New York, January 6.-After the adj
vance of Saturday considerable cotton
came on the market this morning and
prices declined rather sharply to sol for
May. Estimates for Houston were $1,000
to 1900, which were large enough to
stagger the trade. We are not inclined
to advise buyers of cotton as long as this
sort of thing continues. If the movement
falls off, well and good; if 1t does not,
there is no use protesting against the
market, for it will go lower. We do not
see what inducements there are to buy
cotton with the I'm sight figures over
last year, receipts keeping up on an
enormous scale and the visible increasing
in a way that can hardly be explained.
When the situation changes it will be
time enough to buy. We are too anxious
to make money for our Gust omers to ask
them to take needless risks. Until there
are good reasons for expecting an adj
vance buyers can hardly make money.
On a severe break purchases should show
a profit, for the downward movement is
likely to be slow at the best Commission
houses sold a good bit today.
