BULLS. HAD MUCH ID CONTEND WITH Opening Changes in Cotton
 Were Not Great WEEKLY REPORT BEARlSH One Firm suspends, But It Will Prob. ably Not Involve Any Others to
 Any Material EM
 tent.

New York, May 3.-The cotton market opened weak at a decline of 1s to l5 points following much lower cables than expected, Liverpool having broken badly over the holidays. while spot demand there was practically at standstin The bulls had also to confront a very favor able set of weather maps showing rain in the dry sections, while temperatures remained generally favorable In view of these varied developments, and the fact that the suspension of local house was announced before the call, the open ing changes were not great, as soon af- forwards prices rallied a few points on covering. There was no sign of bull sup port. however. and with New Orleans showing considerable weakness, the mar ket soon began to decline.
 The weekly report of the weather bu- reau at midday proved more bearish than had been expected, and following it's publication there was very heavy liqui- dation, led apparently by large local wire houses. with New Orleans connections This selling carried July down to 12. 40 the lowest point 1t has occupied since the continuation of the first bull campaign last January and a net loss of 40 points; October sold down to 1059, a net loss of 32 points, and the general list was 2S to 40 points net lower. In the late trad ing room covering rallied prices some what with the help of light demand from spot people and Liverpool and the mar ket was finally steady at a net decline of 26 to 37 points. Sales were estimated at 400, GOO bales.
 The concern suspendng, was said to have few open trades in the market. and consequently the failure was not thought likely to involve any other firm to any material extent. Receipts for the day were full, as compared with last year, and exports over the holidays have been moderate.
 Receipts at the ports today were 6735 bales, against 4017 last week, and 5479 last year. For the week 25,oOO bales. against 26253 last week. and 25295 last year. Today's receipts at New Orleans were 417o against 1114 fast year, and at Houston 4f3 against ASA last year.

New orIe,ns Cotton Market.

New Orleans May 31.-There was a fair 1y good demand for spot cotton for ex- port, but buyers and sellers were apart as to prices. Sales, 2250 bales, including 100 to arrive and 400 fob. delivered on contracts, 100. Quotations A lower. Flu lures opened weak at a decline of from 14 to 42 points below the cfose Of Friday. The most bearish feature was the weak ress of Liverpool which at the opening was from IS to 21 points down on the old and from to points on the new crop months, when compared with Thursday g close. This was followed by the announce ment of failure in the New York mar ket and the report of heavy rains in the eastern and central portions of the belt, where they were badly needed. With everything in their favor bears sold heav- fly and showed hardly any desire to take profits There was almost an entire ab- sence of bull support, and little or no long buying. July lost 32 points from
 Fridays closing at 12.6O. recovered to 12.7s, and finally declined to 12H. The market closed quiet and within a point or two of the lowest of the day, the list showing net losses of A to 45 points on the old crop positions and N to 30 on the new.

caldwell 6 ward,s cotton Letter.

By H. and B. Beer.
 New Orleans. May 31.-The weakness of Liverpool over the holidays was instru- mental In causing our market to open IA to 24 points lower, but shorts covering to Il on near months and to 10 on late The weekly weather report was bearsh subsequently, superinduced A quick break of 2S to 31 on old crop months and 12 to 19 on the new. Near the close values steadied slightly, making the net loss A to 45 points on old crop months since last Fri- day and 27 to 30 on new. Sentiment con- tinues very bearish owing to the poor tex- tile trade conditions. and the more favor able crop outlook. The agricultural bureau will issue report on Saturday giving the acreage and condition. The general opin- ion seems to be that the increase in acre age will range from to 10 per cent, and the general average condition will be about 30 per cent as compared to "A last year. It seems to be as popular to sell now as it was to buy when cotton was soaring upwards to fancy figures. While remembered that the old crop options have declined over 51h cents from the top. and that the new are selling around 10 cents. These prices are not extravagantly high and though they may sell lower, 1t was apparent today that European spinncrs were free buyers of the fall months. If spinners are willing to continue buying new crop months at the existing level the chances are that sentiment may chenge when least expected.
