COTTON FUTURES.

New York, March 21.-The cotton
market opened steady, with prices 2Gl3
points higher, and during the early
session held the advance without eff
fort. Shorts quietly covered on bullish
cables from the English market, light
port receipts and estimates for small
weekend ''in-sight" figures. Yet COM
mission house buying and bull support
were strangely lacking, with room SEN
timent as a whole favoring a lower
market. Claims that Southern spot
markets were firmer on increased de-
mand from spinners and rumors that
short time in European mills was ex-
tremely unlikely, owing to the splendid
trade in progress, made little impress
sion upon the market here. Toward
midday realizing set in, and room bears
assumed the aggressive. The figures
of the superintendent of the Cotton EX-
change showed this weeks cotton
brought into sight to be 1885, 900 bales,
whereas early estimates had pointed to
1875, 900 bales. Then came larger esti-
mates for to-morrow's New Orleans
and Houston receipts than looked for
and light selling orders from New Or
leans. AS the early afternoon wore
along the selling became general, with
bears in the lead. July fell off to S.TSc
the lowest figure touched in two weeks
Just when everything pointed to very
serious break strong buying came to
the front and in the last half hour
whirled July up to SS5c. A prominent
New Orleans bull led the late buying.
The market closed steady and net un-
changed to 8 points lower. Total sales
We're estimated at 1850 bales.

Murphy & Co.'s Cotton Letter.

New York, March 21.-Early cables
exceeded expectation and local prices
advanced at the opening two points or
so. But again there was not much
doing despite the fact that bull conf
dence was being intensified mainly, ow-
ing to the decreased movement, which
appears to be now of greater conse-
ouence than at any time this season.
Buyers in the South have withdrawn
from the field, it is understood. not
because of requirements being filled,
but owing to exhaustion, of which 1t
is asserted evidence will be so conclu-
sive before many days as surprise even
bulls. The morning range was narrow.
Gables were l to 21a higher. Port re-
ceipts were $4,000, against $4,000 last
year, while the insight 10000, against
III 900 last week and 161, 900 last year,
which had little or no effect on the
market, having been fully anticipated.
The Liverpool statistical situation at
the close of week shows no remarkable
changes. but there is apparently enough
cotton there to enable consumers to
assume an independent attitude. The
supply of all kinds increased 81, 900 dur
ing the week, and is now 1.11S.000 bales.

in the amount of all kinds afioat. and
a. decrease of $4,000 in the American
afioat. while the afioat shows de-
crease of IS 900 from last year. and the
American $4,000 decrease.

consequently our market opened 8

only 5000 bales behind last year. where
as the aggregate brought into sight

creased during the week $4,000 bales,
against a decrease of $1,000 last year
and the aggregate to date is $4,000

ment continues bullish, but the apathy
of spinners and exporters checks spec
ulative buying for the present.

Hubbard Bros. & Co.'s Cotton Letter.

New York, March 21.-Our decline
appears to be due to realizing by out
side holders who became discouraged
at the absence of any new factor or
new speculation when the movement
fell off, AS there is practically no short
interest except that against cotton in
the various markets the liquidation of
long cotton broke prices. A rally is in
order from the low point on the lighter
crop movement, but the market needs
new support either from spinners or
specula tors. So far the liquidation has
not been extensive, but confined to
nearby accounts. The South has been
a buyer on the break. Receipts next
week promise to be lighter though it
is apparent from the movement that
the low crop estimate will soon be re-
ceived short of time.

The Morning News Office,
Friday, March u.
Liquidation was the predominating
feature in the cotton futures market at
New York during the week, and was
the means of depressing values consid-
erably. However, the declines do not
seem to correspond with the amount of
cotton being unloaded, which is taken
in some quarters to signify strength
Spot markets continue stubborn, with
factors and interior holders reluctant
sellers. 1t is difficult to obtain mate
rial concessions, and as these are what
many buyers are looking for business
is greatly restricted.
From a local standpoint turpentine
was the decided feature by its rapid
advances, going up at the rate of a
cent between calls, with moderate de-
mand at the higher level. The clos
ing to-day was firm at 4Sc, with buy
ers in and out of the market. While
the rise is largely attributed to manip-
ulation it is conceded that the statisti-
cal position is strong, and that the ar
ticle is entitled to some improvement
on the several favorable influences now
working for higher prices. Resins
closed firm. The demand for all grades
is moderate.
