COTTON Scene
The New Orleans Market at
the Breaking Point
Brown, Head Of the Corner, by Pre-
cept and Example Stayed the
Downward Rush.

New Orleans, Feb. 5.-Today saw the
widest scenes of this week in the cot
ton market. At the lowest levels of
the day rrices were from 152 to 1S0
points lower than what cotton was
selling for the first of the week. The
market was thrown into a panic soon
after the opening by the immense
amount of cotton that was offered for
sale. Where the offerings came from
was a mystery. Thousands of bales
were thrown upon the market, forcing
prices down ten and twenty points at
a time.
Such wild scenes were never before
witnessed. Thousands of people lined
Gravier street watching the traders
scrapbling in their eagerness to get
near the center of the ring and offer
their cotton. There appeared to be
ten sellers to one buyer.
At the height of the turmoil when it
looked as if the market must go to
pieces, the bull leader, w. P. Brown,
pleaded with the brokers 20 stop cffer-
ing their cotton fifteen and twenty
points under the market. You will
bretk the market and yourselves, if
you continue" he said. Take the cot
ton yourselves and make a profit OF
it." Browns stand against the selling
immedie tely had its effect and it was
clearly evident to everyone that the
rules of the exchange were being brok-
en- by the way many brokers were Of
fering cotton.
The bull leader followed his speech
by heavy bidding and buying. and in a
few minutes other longs followed his
lead and in a short time in place of the
panic comparative quiet reigned and
prices showed a material recovery, al
though the market had weak tone up
to the close.
