New orleans cotton Market.

New Orleans December 20.-The spot
cotton market was easier today, but not
quotably lower. Factors tables were fair
ly well covered, but there is some COM
plant of a scarcity of clear grades, off
colored and stained cottons being largely
predominant. At the noon closing the
exchange committee on quotations re-
ported the market firm at previous values.
Sales $3.50 bales, including 400 to arrive.
The contract market today was some
what unsettled. There seems to be a
steady under current of bullish sentiment
predicted upon the extremely light crop
movement. This fact is most pronounced
in the local field where prices on the near
positions are being steadily forced we'll
above New York level The market after
opening one point down, advanced four to
six points all along the line and then
entered upon a series of mild fluctuations
that left prices at the close but / to 2

January Situation Continues to BE =
Disturbing Element About Which
Various and Contradictory
Rumors Are Circulated.

New York, December 20.-The cotton
market opened steady at an advance of
points and ruled fairly active for a
time on small estimates as to port re-
ceipts and forecasts of comparatively
small insight movement for the week,
the latter being placed at 100000 bales
against SS7,677 last year; 3S0,92I the year
before last and 259174 in 1890. Later there
was an easier feeling. under selling to
secure profits, which was led by New Or
leans orders. Again the market turned
firrner in public demand which reflected
the influence of yesterdays weekend
statistics The January situation con-
tinues to be a disturbing feature regard
ing the outcome of which widely con-
fieting rumors are current. A large
commission house chiefly absorbed the
early offerings mainly in the way of COW
ering short accounts. There was some
Wall street support and a fairly active
European demand. for the nearer posi-
tions, stimulated by less favorable
average to the weather in the cotton belt
and especially in view of the low tempera-
ture in the west and the rains in the
central sections. While over night mes
sages gave firm indications regarding the
position of spot cotton, with demand from
exporters fairly active, toward noon the
market ruled steady and about a point
net advance.

some surprise that her name was

she says, has caused the greatest
offense," and IAN explanation is re-
quested." The letter is marked "pri-
vate.''
The editor of the Scottish Gentle
woman replies that he supposed as
did everybody else, that Miss Corel-
lis opposition to newspaper publici-
ty was adamantine. He had. there
fore, given orders that her name
should not be mentioned in the
Gentlewoman. He presents his re-
grets for the error, and closes thus:
Logical consistency obliges the edi-
tor to understand, further that the
word private at the head of the let
ter should be read public unless.
indeed, he has again misunderstood
and Miss Corelli's letter Is not as it
appears to be, request for publici-
