 NEW ORLEANS. Nov. 2o.-Liverpool ad- vices were more favorable than expected con- sequently market opened 5 to points higher and subsequently, declined 2 to 3 points on realizing. Later, however. the light esti- mated receipts at New Orleans Houston and Galveston and a good demand for spots coupled to fears of freezing weather material ixng in the belt. caused advance of 10 to 2 points from the bottom, making the net gain f6 to lo points the day. The weather was partly cloudy throughout the South to- day and the temperature ranged from 50 to 60 degrees. Showers predicted to occur the greater portion of this district to- night or Friday, but the temperature will rise ever the eastern portion and fall over the western. Sensational reports of damage by the rains in Texas and the anticipation of a very bullish bureau estimate on December s. have been instrumental in occasioning the sharp reaction which has been established. While the rains may have done damage it is claimed that 1t Is exaggerated. Sentiment, nevertheless continues extremely bullish and favorable feature is eagerly grasped to en- hancs values. The indictment weather in Texas and the shortage of cars generally is expected to curtail the movement during the next two weeks During the excitement the absence of frost 90 late in the season and the general favorable weather throughout the South outside of Texas has been overlooked. general kill ing frost now be looked for at any mo- ment. After such sharp advance we suggest working conservative lines The weather, receipts and the demand for spots will con- Hlnua to govern.

NEW YORK, Nov. 20.-If reports at hand through various sources are deserving of seri- GUS Consideration. the crop has been prohting in most decided manner by the open fall so xar.ss Advices of white fields where no cotton wass expected are so numerous to attract no little attention and rather disappoint small crop believers, Sentiment is mixed and the conservative wing of spectators hesitate which course to adopt being unable to close their eyes to the liberal movement. poor trade conditions abroad indifference of spinners at home and what they fear may prove unsatis- factory developments in Wall Street indirectly disturbing cotton values The weather map this morning more proved disapointing to the killing frost calculators since there was nothing short of AZ degrees reported while the absence of moisture was general this morning. Thse effect of which it Is feared will be felt for, some time and win once more lead to heavy crop estimates Prices opened higher on good cables due to American buying at Liv- ierpool The advance was well maintained most of the morning and the improvement was helped by bullish trade reports from the con- tinent.

 NEW YORK, Nov. 2o.-May and March cct- ton sold at 20 today with January g. 29. This represented advance of about 40 points in yaauary or @ bale> IL is about what has been Sxpected and said yesterday we looked for eh for March before the bureau report The advance has come even quicker than we had dared hope, Fro ma basis. ofeh 4nf March and May everything will depend en receipts and the action of Southern mar ksts Unless there is 6 decided improvement in the South 1t will be difficult to set the mar kef much over 9A cents. Too much cotton is being offered here for delivery. Holders of De- esns6er will welcome the advance and have done all in their power to assist prices to a higher level. There is an evident intention of delivering cotton contracts in January and for this they have bought December as well as March. On any advance the holders of cotton in the South will sell here for delivery and add their cotton to that held by spot people. For this reason we would take profits on cotton around 9k cents most certainly. There will be chance to buy at lower level. There is likely to be setback after a straight advance of 40 points though we may see a rather excited opening in the morning. Tnis will give holders a chance to ljquidste and get back their cotton later. There has been such thorough cleaning up Of the long interest that the tone is much better and fs likely to be for time. May and March may get to 6. 30 but we look for a reaction towards Q cents before much of an advance above SK.

BRAND DID NOT
 APPEAR FOR TRIAL
FORFEITURE TAKEN AGAINST LAWYER CHARGED WITH lM- PROPERLY COLLECTING MONEY FOR CONFEDERATE HOME.

Evergreen, March 24.-(Special)-B. w. Brand the Columbiana lawyer who was under a bond of $500 for his appearance before the County Court at this place to- day to answer to the charge of obtaining money under false pretenses In connec- tion with soliciting money for Con federate veterans home in Alabama, failed to put in an appearance and for feiture was taken against his bondsmen
 It had been arranged to have General George P. Harrison of Opelika, from whom Brand had claimed to have au- thority to collect money for the purpose stated, to be here and testify in the case, but 1t being learned through letter from a citizen of Columbiana that Brand had not been seen In that city for several days past, 1t was thought probable that he would not be here, so General Harri- son was advised of the fact and did not come.
 Since Brands arrest, which was done at the instance of the editor of the Cou- rant, information has been received by letter from various parts of the State that he collected money for the same purpose in other towns. aggregating sev- eral hundred dollars.
