 NEW ORLEANS. Dec. S.-Opening prices fin Liverpool were about as expect ed, Egyptian houses extending a fair amount of early support. later freer selling by inn porters caused a recession fin values. Bear ish interpretation was placed on the pro posed organized efforts of planters to hold their cotton. Options finally closed at a declina of to 8 points and spots. on sales of 1000 bales. advanced points Man chester advices indicated a quiet cloth market and yarns irregular in price. mod crate amount of buying was participated in at the lower levels recorded at our open ing based principally the idea that the avowed determination in the interior to hold cotton would result in smaller movement. Some short covering was also observed but trading was at no time es- pecially extended.
 fl Considerable interest in the drastic lfouidation of stocks amounting to an ad- smitted panic, Wall Street traders having been consistent bears on cotton covering was to be expected in market where op- eratora were forced to corrall all resources to protect their vital interests. Steadiness 1n the Eastern exchange was partially at frlbutable to this buying As to the gen. eraI situation, much higher prices A1 the 'anmedIate future are not probable. The sholding of farmers will prove of doubtful fftciency unless extended until late into an
 favorable planting season with the fur CT evidence of a decreased acreage or at
 St no increase. While prices may fluc-
 Rte temporarily and afford a scalping harket. the levels will in our opinion. ul- lRinately be reduced.

NEW ORLEANS. Dec. s.-spo: cotton ac- tive. firm and higher. Sales, 10, 200 bales. including 5000 to arrive and 100 f. O. b Quotations advanced 1-16c.
 Futures opened very quiet and from 3 10 13 points down. Soon after the opening prices commenced improving and up to about o'clock had gained six to eight points. The brokers spent most of their time discussing the probability of farmers holding back their cotton. when a great commotion was caused by a rumor to the effect that a large error had been discov- cred in the Government bureau report The ring immediately went wild with excitement and prices shot up 20 to 22 points and held the advance well, losing but point or two before the session closed. January open ed 10 points lower than yesterdays closing at HAS, sold up to 7.56 before the excite ment when the price went up to 7.7S. a gain of 22 points, and finally eased off to ITS. The market closed strong with net gains of l4@l7 points.
