Baxter 6 Co.'s Cotton Letter.

New York December 24-The Liverpool market was in fair shape when we opened although the eastern question was eaus- ing no little concern in some quarters. On the other hand there were signs of a decreased movement, several important points reporting quite a falling off from last years figures and the total pointing to les at the ports. There is a general ex- pectatiQn of very bullish ginners' re- port next month and for this reason no selling of magnitude is looked for, al- though it is presumed that the profit taking from day to day may suffice to prevent prices climbing up as rapidly as they have heretofore done Much depends on the extent of the short interest which is believed to have increased materially after the market touched 12c. Prices open ed higher this morning and the market showed a good deal of activity. It seemed as if the work would close with the bulls in undisputed control. Receipts, 35,00O vs. &, 000 A 20 point rise resulted from light receipts during the early session. Few cared to venture on the short side and longs are apparently satisfied to walt for greater profits.

cothran 6 Co.'s Cotton Letter.

Birmingham, December 24-After the opening of Liverpool, the English mar ket seemed to catch the bullish senti- ment afresh and prices were rapidly sent up. Heavy realizing was expected in our markets today. The trading was in an enormous volume, but there seem- ed to be, if anything, more buyers than sellers and new high records were made for the day, July, in New Orleans, sell ing to 14.21. There Is not the slightest sign of weakness, so far in the bull posi- tion. The higher the market goes, the more anxious they seem to bid for big blocks and take them in. Shut your eyes, and buy cotton,' has been the profitable rule up to date. How much longer this will hold is unknown In view of the relative high prices, and the possibility of war troubles in the far east extra precaution should be observ- ed in trading on either side of the mar ket
 Receipts estimated for tomorrow at Houston, Galveston and New Orleans, are 10000 bales against 15000 last year. Spots in New York marked up 10 points to 1870
 The grain markets were stronger to- day. Both grain and provisions are af- fected by probability of war and high CT prices may be looked for
 Stocks exhibited healthy tone. the market is strong and higher. Tennessee Coal, Iron and Railroad is about, 8 points above yesterdays close. Sugar is also particularly strong.

making the net gain IA to T points on the day. The movement continues free. Still, it is confidently believed that marked decrease in receipts win ma terialize after the holidays. It was ru- mored that press cables received from London today say that Russia has ac- ceeded to all of Japans demands. This had favorable influence on values. There was considerable realizing over the holidays, yet the market continues to absorb all offerings at an advance of one-eighth of a cent, with sales of 5700. sentiment is very optimistic, and pre- dietions of much higher prices being realized are freely circulated. This has certainly been a banner season for the south, and the high prices received for cotton have added materially to the prosperity of the country We extend the compliments of the season to our friends, and wish you all a Merry Christmas

The New Orleans Cotton Market.

New Orleans, December A-Spot cotton in good demand at full prices. Sales, 57O0 bales, including 1200 to arrive. Quotations advanced hc futures opened steady with prices to points higher. From this level there was a gradual advance until prices were from 20 to 21 points higher than yesterdays close. The fluctuations soon after the opening gave the market a nervous appearance but the undertone was amazingly strong and when the bull leader commenced buying prices showed ready response Throughout the morning profit taking was on an enormous scale' but it was more than offset by fresh buy ing short covering, the general belief that prices would ultimately reach ex- treme heights and by the buying of the bull leader, who seemed to be uncon- cerned at what price he bought cotton, so long as he bought it. His brokers were also said to be buying heavily In the trading January advanced 23 points to 1892: February 23 to 1873; March 25 to 1890; April 2S to 1898; May IS to 1403; June g to 141S and July 25 points to 14H.

NEW ORLEANS IS A TAKER

New York, December 4.-The cotton market opened firm at a decline of 8 points to an advance of 12 points, and fol- lowing the call ruled firm for a time, selling up to a net gain of 13 to 20 points on aggressive New Orleans buy ing and covering by parties who sold on the late break of the previous day. that were a shade better than expected, and the outlook for smaller receipts in connection with unfavorable weather, but during the early morning very sensa- tional reports were being circulated re- garding the outlook in the far east, and to, there was a partial reaction under realizing with some of the room traders again taking the short side for a turn. As prices slipped back, however, the local bull leader began buying aggressively, and between his takings and those of New Orleans the market was again boosted, and prices for the third successive day this week were soon beyond all previous high marks.
 January at this time sold at 1350; March IS 80 and May and July 1S.91 Then, as was the case yesterday, there was heavy realizing that became more aggressive as the session progressed and toward the end of the last half hour prices had been depressed to nearly last nights final prices In the last ten minutes, however. the market was rallied sharply by re- newa of bull support and covering by shorts. The close was irregular and un- settled, but net to 16 points higher. Sales were estimated at 1000 bales.
