Market Letter
Especial to News and Observer

New Orleans. Dec 17.-Liyerpool ad-
vices were not encouraging, but our
market nevertheless opened two points
higher and shortly after declined points
on realizing. The light estimated re-
ceipts az Weston and Houston Io7 TO
morrow occasioned an advance Of points
from the bottom, the quieter feeling pre-
vailing in sDots and lack of outside BUY
ing caused a decline of points near the
closing. making quotations practically
Unchanged from yesterdays hguIes. Al
vices from Texas state that the farmers
are busy picking since the favorable
weather set in. Still the receipts VIII
Lot Increase for some time as the roads
are in an impossible condition. The
local receipts are outrailed in measure
by the strike of round freight handlers
While the receipts, unfaVorable weather
and car shortage east of the Mississippi
River have been instrumental in reducing
the movement to an abnormally light
scale il must also be ascribed to the
apathy of exporters who refuse to buy
spots having no hedging basis, owing to
The lack of premiums existing in Liver
pool. For the past four years those who
endcavored to force business by selling
deliveries at a discount against spot
purchase have lost millions of dollars.
Consequently spots are purchased now on
actual order principally, thereby account
ing for the lowness of the movement
spinners hereafter require only $4,000
bales monthly and anything marketed
above this amount is done on speculation
Since 1895 there has been a change in
the movement and crops are moving slow
er each year since then. In 1898, on De-
cember 1st 50 per cent of the crop was
marketed and last year only 40 per cent
was brought into sight
From present indications up to date
this is the sloWest moving crop on record.
The cotton trade is beginning to realize
this fact, and had they done SO two
years ago they would not have been mis-
led as to the probable outtum of these
two seasons Many are again placing
too much Importance on the absurdly
light receipts and making no allowance
for the changed conditions which have
been taken place in marketing cotton
slower each year during the past five
years. Irrespective of these facts senti-
ment is extremely bullish and any ia
vorable feature may cause an advance.

local news bureau published a statement
indicating that the January bull clique

in the way of January contracts had
made private settlements with spot
holders to the extent of 100000 bales
leaving the net long interest 700, 900 bales
against which none of the cotton now in

held in the South for shipment to New
York could be delivered, while to bring

terday. There was the same broadening
show of strength up to the last hour,
when a selling movement developed which
wiped out practically all of the earlier
gains and carried some prices below last
night. The reaction today was rather
moro gradual and not quite so severe as
yesterday and was followed by a steadier
tone just before the close. There is no
reason to doubt that the late selling
movement today came from the same
sources and with the same objects as that
of yesterday, that is to say from sources
in touch with the bankers money pool
and with the object of discouraging any
Indulgence in speculation. The sharpness
ami suddenness of last night S decline led
TO the supposition in some quarters that
it WAS due TO some coming bad news re-
garding tho Venezuelan situation To-
days decline had no such suspicious to
account for it. The early strength in the
market vas duo in no small part to the
relief felt over the failure of yesterdays
sinister rumors to materialize The facts
developed over night regarding the Vene-
zuelan situation, although containing
some unfavorable features. were SO much
less threatening than had been feared,
coura cement and disposition to buy
stocks was manifested on that score. A
number of special influences also helped
the show Of strength. The passage of the

the Cuban Reciprocity treaty, but the
leaders of the speculative advance were
stocks in which powerful pools are known
to exist. The purchase by the United

mixed emotions, owing to the prospect
Of & large bond issue against the pur
chase, but the steel shares subsequently
