II. & ID. Beers Cotton Letter.

New Orleans, Feb. 3.-Notwithstand-
ing Liverpool advices were disappoint-
ing, our market on opening 1 point
lower, declined later on the large
Houston and New Orleans estimates for
tomorrow, but subsequently improved
10 from the bottom in sympathy with
the firmness i'm New York, due to
March manipulation there, closing at a
net gain of 4 points on the day. Port
receipts for the six days are $4,000 bales
in excess of last year, and the interior
movements on an increasing scale, yet
these factors are ignored for the mo-
ment,, as sentiment is very bullish, oil
interests being centered in the March
manipulation going on in New York..
We would suggest that our friends re-
alize profits on their long cotton on all
strong periods, because with a contin-
ued increase in receipts the probabiIi-
ties are values will not be sustained.
Receipts will ultimately govern the flu
ture course of the market, therefore,
we think 1t important to watch the
movement closely.

the decline was recovered on the
strength of March. Notwithstanding
the large receipts at New Orleans and
Houston for tomorrow, local temper
is very bulliSh on the belief the move

customers to "buy on the breaks and
unload on the bulges."
The undertone of the market seems

the tendency is upward. To-day the
PORTS got $4,000, against $1,000 last year,
INIT this did not seem to have the
slightest effect, save when the bulls
allowed the, bears to play with the
market awhile about midday When
tbe time came for the advance it was
scored without trouble, putting the
hears into pandemonium . and de-
moralizing their forces. If Liverpool
responds as expected tomorrow an

for. Spots were very steady, and the

last year several mistakes were made
AT times there were more men carried
