New York Cotton Futures.
LOCAL MARKETS.

The local cotton market was dead yes- terday and there was nothing doing in spot However futures were lively and also at lofty prices. The calls for May continue regular and the fall months September, for instance, are beginning to attract attention among the talent. July and August are also much in demand. The business entanglement of a promi- nent local cotton firm is attracting much attention among the Birmingham bulls and bears, but it Is probable that an amicable settlement will soon be arrived at.
 The slight cold snap yesterday was good for perishable freight in the fruit and produce market, but there was nothing much coming in. Bananas were de- cidedly on the move, however. The fruit is green and is being stored for future delivery. The prices are steady
 Other fruit Is rather dull. Oranges are scarce. Lemons, limes strawberries, and apples are also hard to find
 Among the spring vegetables and other lines of produce there was little going on yesterday. The market was scantily supplied and none was coming in.
 Stocks and bonds were very quiet yes terday. No changes in the quota tions took place for locals and the situation was uninterestlng
 Everything was firm in local staple groceries except meats. Ribs and bellies were off 10 points and extras registered points below the price of Tuesday.
 The market for hides Is dull and with out feature.

New York, April 22.-For the second time in it's history, the stock and petro- leum exchange did business today with out the big board to guide it. The vol ume of business was fairly large, ex- ceedIng over 120,OOO shares.

Baxter & Co.'s Cotton Letter.

Consolidated Stock Exchange Quotations
 for today only.
 New York, April 22-Cotton opened 1 to points higher, under the influence of vigorous cables. The weather was fav- orable all over the south and there was no indication of rain anywhere. With the prospects of showers in the north west, the movement promised to be full, but not excessive, and the feeling was rather more hopeful in the absence of prompt orders on the part of bears to back their views of immense amounts to be marketed. The weekly government report in detail if anything, was more bullish than appeared by yesterdays summary. It is natural that the market should show steadiness for some tlme since it is certain that the crop is hav- ing a late start, and the result must be that the summer movement of cotton may be on an unusually light scale, in which event there is no telling what kind of a squeeze may occur in July contracts. During the morning prices were to 13 points higher on heavy buying by shorts and the clique, the latter buying July

cothran & Co.'s Cotton Letter. By c. w. Lee & Go.
 New Orleans, April 22.-The improve ment in the cotton market Is generally sustained. Cables from Liverpool were not specially comforting as the opinion was expressed that stocks of manufac- tured goods were accommodating in Man chester owing to excess of production as compared with consumption, and a de- cline in prices was predicted If receipts continued heavy. For all that the Eng fish market scored an advance in both departments and reported a firm tone
 There were lively Fluctuations here but the undertone appeared very steady as result of a better inquiry for spots and occasional buying by leading bulls acted as a stimulating influence.
 The continued liberality of receipts un- doubtedly initiates against the market as traders In some instances are led to fear that holdings have been indulged in rather freely, and that efforts are now in progress to secure the prevailing level of prices. Considering the fact that good weather has been observed through out this month, however and that the wretehed weather previously had been figured as materially retardlng the move- ment on account of impossible roads, it Is astonishing that the expansion in re- ceipts al present is restricted to such moderate proportions.
 But it Is evident that the trade is in state of anxiety about the amount of cotton still to come forward. and until more definite knowledge can be gathered in this respect, the tone of prices Is likely to be exceptionally nervous and active fluctuations will probably be the rule for some time.
