in the cotton markets today. Liverpool
 dropped off. presumably under the pres sure of sales for Egyptian account bur there was no evidence of desire to take inc downward turn seriously abroad Trading here was conducted for various accounts. at lower quotations but big bulls restored the tone to steadiness through liberal bidding, while sellers pro- ceeded in a cautious way. Reviewing the mast seourse of the cotton market one can readily discern that spots have led the situation. and under the circumstances II is only natural that prices should continue to reflect the extent of demand for actual cotton. Speculation may have figured 10 some extent in the recent enormous trans- actions throughout the south, but the character of trade reports ra;ner suggest that actual spinners' requirements We're prominent in a greater degree. If tn re is any noticeable subsistence in fhe de .nand for spots, resulting from possible procurement of immediate supplies 4 moderate relaxation from the constant frnness of prices heretofore observed would not be surprising, but any artih- cal pressure that may be contributed with the idea of forcing a precipitate decline. will only have temporary effect. The refs have rather small stocks of raw cot ton but are provided with purchases for future delivery If such is the case the srecuIator has obligated himself to sup ply the spinners with spots later in the season and it will not do to await the last minute to fill such engagements.

The Coffee Market.

New York, February 25.-Spot Rio coffee quiet; No. invoice 5ssc, mild quiet; Cor dova 7@11Ac.
 The market for coffee futures opened steady at a partial advance of , points and ruled very active under extensive liquidation of March contracts forced on the market by notices of delivery. The market was sustained, however by the purchase of the later positions by the speculative longs, an advance in the prices of package coffee and reports from Brazilian sources forcasting government action on the scheme to reduce produce tion by destroying 20 per cent of the total receipts. This phase of the situation was chiefly responsible for late advance of a quarter franc at Havre. and the local market closed steady on the opening basis. Sales 117,000 bags March 4.3O94. S5.

LOCAL MARKETS.

Cotton was feverish yesterday but after vacillating all day, finally closed firm at opening prices. The local market was fairly quiet, Tuesdays holiday in New Orleans not affecting it to any appreeiable extent, and trading was comparatively light.
 There were slight variations in the quo tations for local stocks and bonds yester- day Avondale Cotton mills stock is selling at 90 bid and 95 asked. Georgia Railway and Electric common fell from 36 bid and 40 asked to s4 bid and 37 asked. Georgia Railway and Electric preferred stock is quoted at 80 bid and S3 asked
 The fruit and produce merchants along Morris avenue were kept busy yesteray storing away newly arrived shipments. In several places the crates, boxes and barrels overfiowed the sidewalk into the street. Sweet potatoes were much In evil dence and numerous empty crates testi- fled to the big sale eggs are having. The prices on the latter continue steady.
 A big consignment of spaghetti came in yesterday. The suculent dainty finds a ready sale in the Birmingham market and large quantities are consumed. Fresh domestic macaroni is also plentiful at 61hc per pound.
 Some very fine imported cheese was on the market yesterday. A huge Swiss va- riety was particularly appetizlng. As the supply has just come in it is finding a good sale at BOG per pound, and will soon be exhausted.
 A carload of apples and a carload of peanuts also arrived yesterday. but were not put on sale. The demand for. good apples Is greater than the supply, and the new arrivals will be disposed of in short order. The sale of peanuts is about the same all the year around. The fancy variety bring to 512c a pound.
 Prices in staple groceries have been unusually steady this week. The first changes in the meat quotations since Sat urday were reported yesterday. Dry salt ed ribs rose from 10ssc to 10a4c per pound and dry salted rib bellies were sell ing at 1O5sc. Shipping is better than it has been for some time past, but dealers are still experiencing delays on account of the scarcity or cars.

Baxter G Co.'s Cotton Letter.

New York, February 25.-Very poor ca bles broke our market sharply this morn ing. It was seen yesterday that the un- dertone was weak and the trade was not unprepared for the lower level of prices. The receipts promised to be quite small. but this availed nothing Rain fell In the southwest while the greater portion of the Gulf and Atlantic states were without moisture. The tempera- ture was al low as 30 degrees at Memphis and 60 at Corpus Christi. With clearing weather the bears are calculating on a big spurt in the movement. The ma- jority of the trade do not attach much importance to the amount of cotton yet to be gathered In fact 1t Is not probable that II will increase the movement to any appreciable extent whatever. It Is taken for granted that cotton Is destined to much higher level, although We ma 7 witness frequent set backs.
 It Is felt that the yield will be too mod crate and demand too enormous to keep the raw material at the presest level Prices rallied to points soon after the early decline. Port receipts 18,000 against 23,0OO last year. Liquidation was appar- ently over for the time being and sellers were getting cautious. Cables were fever ish at to points decline.
