Baxter G Co.'s Cotton Iett.,.

New York, January 17.-Cables today showed a decline of two to three poin ts with the tone steady. Reports of un- picked cotton were numerous and this dis concerted the bull element.
 There Is no doubt of a bull market ahead based on the matter of supply and demand alone. 1t matters little whether the crop will be 10500, 900 or Il, ,000, ,0OO the supply will be fully met. No little stress is made on the fact that the visible sup ply is picking up but that gives no seri- ous concern. Statistics cannot point one way at all times and frequent recessions in values are not only natural, but anx- iousiy looked for by the conservative ele- ment, who are encouraged by the strong statistical position and pay no attention to the rediculous claims of extreme bears who are insisting on a bumper crop, de- spite the absence of anything tangible for supposing that there is any unusual amount of cotton yet to be marketed
 Prices showed little easier feeling at the opening, although there was numer- our private bullish cables on hand.
 The ports promised to reach 39.0oO against 23,000 last year and the fact that we shall compare with a moderate move ment Monday also makes buyers rather timid.
 March and May were offered freely after the opening, causing general weak ness.

position here amongst traders to exert themselves. Some of the customary Sat- urday liquidation was effected, but in view of the favorable attitude of Liver pool and the continuance of wretehed weather in the south, the tone of prices held decidedly firm with friendly senti- ment in no degree lessened.
 The confidence displayed in the situa- tion of cotton and consequent favorable possibilities is not the result of a casual conclusion, for the level of price alone has been of sufficient significance to cause many traders to pause, but the successive periods of bad weather cov- ering the entire south leaves a large mar gin for doubt about the crop in the fields exercising a depressing influence and with the present state of weather defer red while longer it is questionable whether this feature will figure conspicu- ously at any part of the season hence forth. Unless spinners can afford to withdraw from the market at this juno ture there Is no perceptible reason why prices should take backward turn.

SLIGHT DECLINE
 IN COTTON MARKET Later Tendency of Market Was
 Towards Uneaslness SOUTH MODERATE SELLER Commission Houses Sold to Secure Profits, While Leading Shorts Were
 the Best Buyers-Llverpool
 Showed a Decline.
SOUTH MODERATE SELLER

New York, January 1.-The cotton market opened steady at unchanged prices to a decline of points, which was better than expected, cables being con- siderably worse than had been looked for. The later tendency of the market was towards easiness under liquidation of long interests and indications of larger receipts. Liverpool market closed at a net decline of points which was about twice the decline required to match the closing of the New York market yester- day. Early estimates pointed to re- ceipts of 3s,OOO against 29,0O0 last year, while the weather map showed too much rain in important parts of the cotton belt for generally free movement. Selling in the local market was checked by strong accounts of Alexanderia, with one cable reporting 12 per cent dividends by some of the Egyptian cotton mills. Com mission houses sold to secure profits, while leading shorts were the best buy CTS. The south was a moderate seller here. A few European orders were ex- ecuted early, after which the foreign contingent dropped out as a factor.
 New York, January 17.-Cotton steady, mild,s s95c; net receipts, 295; gross re- ceipts, 13,342; sales, 326; stock, 59,S30.
 Total today and consolidated: Net re- ceipts at all the seaports, 3972 exports to Great Britain, 4097; exports to France, 300; exports to the continent, 6S5; stock, 1,091, ,976.
 Total since September 1 at all seaports: Net receipts. 5.373559; exports to Great Britain, 1,6S703S; exports to France, 4S0,- S66; exports to the continent, 1,720,263.
