cothran & Co.'s Cotton Letter.

By Gilbert & Clay.
New Orleans. April 5.-The lengthy holi-
day period failed to infuse energy into
the English market. In fact the nature of
business transacted indicated that the
holidays might have been extended with
out any serious discomfort to the trade.
Deliveries moved up and down and closed
nearly Identical with the final prices OF
last Thursday. Spots we're quoted up
about 50 per bale. but this failed to at
tract any demand and the sales only
amounted to 1000 bales Notwithstanding
the promise of an early revival in busi-
ness at Manchester, and the continent
that foreign spinners held small stocks
of raw cotton.
The chief feature here consisted OF
liquidation by longs who were disappoint-
ed at the non-appearance of the expected
inquiry for actual cotton. Big bulls con-
tributed periodical support, but the Of
ferings were rather too free and prices
succumbed to the pressure.
The statistical position retains It's
strength and assists materially in en-
couraging friendly sentiment, but for the
present the value of the staple is domn-
ated by developments in the spot depart
ment and without a satisfactory demand
or indication of a demand from the
regular trade 1t will be difficult to sustain
prices.

LOCAL MARKETS.

The local cotton quotations for spot were
marked down yesterday. The closing
figures were 1884 for good middling
The securities market was very quiet
yesterday. No changes in the quotations
were made.
In staple groceries the feature is a
scarcity OF corn. The demand is urgent
and as a result prices have gone up con-
siderably. White corn is now quoted at SO
cents per bushel, while mixed Is selling
for 6S. All other lines are steady, how
ever, and prices are holding firm.
Business is reported good along Morris
avenue just now. Spring produce is be-
ginnig to come in and trade is improv
ing from day to day. There Is not much
activity reported in fruits. Shipments
have been rather light for the past few
days.
Eggs have fallen off and are now quot
ed at IA to 10 cents per dozen. There is
pothing doing so far as poultry Is con-
cerned.

ket was active and while the prevailing
tone was strong there was considerable
variety in the fluctuations. Movement of
prices was far from consistent and some
appearance of manipulation was given to
dealings by coincident strength of one
group of stocks or one stock and the
weakness of others London was an early
buyers but later turned seller. There was
some unquiet with regard to Northern
Securities situation but on the other hand
the sharp decline in Sterling removed
probability of any gold shipments of i'm
portance this week. The common opin-
ion seemed to be that the declaration of
the regular steel preferred dividend would
be beneficial to the general speculation,
yet the advance of ia in that issue ap
peared to invite considerable realizing
with result that the final dealings showed
little change from last nights close The
market closed irregular and uncertain.

New Orleans, April Spot cotton quiet
and weak. Sales 1850 bales including 800
to arrive and 200 fob. Quotations re-
duced 5-16.
Futures opened with prices to u
points lower. The bears were in control
and used their hammers with wonderful
effect, sending prices down 20 to 30 points.
Prominent bulls made no effort to sus-
tain the market. creating the impression
that they desire lower prices until they
have chance to load up again with
cheaper cotton. In the trading huctu-
atoms were wide and frequent. May OPEN
