Sales Continue to Run Ahead Of last
Year--MoVement Steady.
New York April 1o.-Dan Talmage's
sons CO. say:
The demand OF the week did NOT vary
materially as to volume or character from
the preceding one. II there be any change
in the situation Il is in the attitude Of
buyers, who are showing confidence by Of
ferlng to purchase largely at slight con
oession OF price. Holders, however, are
sim backed, and the temporary result is
staudon on the part Of would-be buyers
or transactions Of limited proportions. The
chief business is on Japan Of high and low
degree; medium sorts in light call and OBJ
tamable at relatively cheaper figures. Caro-
lima and Honduras move slowly and under
6Canty supply are firmly held.
Adyiccs from the South note steady
movement ~ fructionally higher figures.
While dissatisfaction 10 expressed by some
as TO the volume of business, 1t Is stlu t.
be remarked that the present sales continue
to run ahead Of those Of last year and are
at a sufficient ratio TO carry the crop out
before the new can arrive In any plentiful
quantity. The Southwest with It's IMAM

Is the forward supply is mainly In the
hands OF a powerful contingent who are
abuuunnLy equipped 70 carry dnu mhfket
holdings with delberatlOn. The cDtEie
are working apparently In concert, and the
success which attended their efforts In the
past leaves but little room for doubt as
to the outcome. as there are exceptionally
fayoring conditions the present year.
Gables and correspondence from abroad
note steady but disappointing movement
Increased activity had been expected In
connection with the FIRST arrivals OF new
crop Burmah, but the high prices insisted
upon for leading grades, tends to discourage
buyers and operations are on a hand "a

as heretofore, firm aud tendency toward

pearcd that the loss was due principally 10
inactivity. Buying sent the market forward
again and before the close Of the short ses-
sion most OF the early loss had been wiped
out The undertone was steady at the close
OF the session Bullish sentiment continued
to dominate the market, which at the close
was net even 10 points higher than yes.

Houston, Texas, April 19.-There was a
slight reaction in the cotton market today
in sympathy with the lower Liverpool
cables than expected, and the large receipts
at the ports, the estimates for the day being
about on a parity with last year,
Liverpool was ] to points down on fu-
lures and unchanged on spots. There should
have been no decline in that quarter in sc.
cordance with the closing on this side .es-
terday.
The news in hand today regarding the
Southern spot situation was bullish in the
extreme The market is working itself
into a legitimate corner at New Orleans,
while a corner Of another character Is
threatening In New York New Orleans
was scarcely as strong as was the case
yesterday, though there was no lack OF
bullish enthusiasm, the early loss there
having been almost all wiped out. New
recovered the greater part OF the loss aud
closed within 10 points of last nights
final bids. kilograms were sent out to the
South this morning by prominent Wall
street operator stating the market was in
weak hands and that a reaction was due
The market Is in strong position from al
most every standpoint. ana should the
movement continue to decrease as II has
done during the past week there is little
10 fear. However. It is time that some re
action was due and the market would be
that reason reaction Is more to be de-
sired than 10 be depored by those who
have been most friendly 10 the staple.

showing no lack OF bull courage in tnat
market Private advices as to the ruling
of spot Southern markets told OF continued
heavy demand at full prices, Receipts at
the ports were close to 5000 bales, as COM
pared with S266 bales for the same day

break and the room trade as a general thing
adopted the bull side for a turn.
