Prices Recover at New Orleans.

NEW ORLEANS, March 1s.-When II was seen

iously affected by Suly's failure after the panic
was over on the Cotton Exchange prices showed
wonderful recovery, considering the shock the
market had received.
At the close the tone called steady, and
May showed recovery of 10 points. while July

covery was more marked. May regained 81
points more at b. 7ic and July regained 20 points

COTTON DROPS 25OPOINTS
sULLY FAILURE SEEMED TO TAKE
BOTTOM OUT OF MARKET.
Covering Toward Close Helped Prices
and Close Was steady at Decline
of 62 to 1876 Points.

NEW YORK March ls.-The cotton market
opened weak at an advance Of points on April
but generally unchanged to II points lower on
further bear pressure and liquidation, in spite
of better cables than expected and smaller estl-
for the days receipts.
The continued pressure against the market In
the face of rather more bullish developments
suggested a determined effort to undermine the
concentrated bull interest believed to exist IN
May contracts. and the idea became more gen
eraI that powerful bear interest was in the
market
Commission houses who had been advising
purchases on a decline became more cautious
and while during the forenoon there were fire.
quent sharp rallies prices gradually went down
anu down.
SULLY FAILURE ANNOUNCED.
Towards ? O'Clock, when margin prices are
made up May was selling around li.SJc. This
represented decline since the high point of
only few days ago of about ls5 points, or
nearly 1926 a bale.
This evidently was more than the bullish in
terest could finance, and just before o'clock
the SUSPENSION of ID. ]. Sully & Co. was an
nounced.
Immediately the market plunged into the
widest scene OF Generalization. Brokers were
panic-stricken and cotton pouring out
with and without orders.
The market went down as though there was
no bottom. No one seemed to about buy
ing: every wanted sell. The big bears,
whoever they have been, whose selling Is be-
lieved to have started little over week ago,
may have bought cotton. but they were
careful not buy too actively. and before the
decline checked even May had sold at i Doc
and July at l2SOc
This loss compared with last night S
closing prices OF from go 20 260 points, or about
$3.50 q bale. The decline from the nigh point
reached on the close of last week was about
&c a pound, about $50 bale
COVERING HELPS PRICES.
Just before the close covering helped prices
somewhat and the market finally steady at
a net decline of 81 to 19e points, with May clos
ing at 1870 and July at 13.55c.
Sales were estimated at 100000 bales. The
usual factors entirely lost sight of during
the entire session. Receipts were light and the
news generally rather more favorable 10
prices than of late, but the only considerations
were those concerned with the speculative SIT
uation.
In spite of the recent severe declines and re-
ports concerning the large line held by the Sully
interests IL may be said that the suspension
came as more less of a surprise TO the gen
eral -ade. The Sully holdings are variously
estimated.
Local traders recently have detected the ex-
istence a large interest in May. which had
been estimated at around 100000 bales, and the
bear drive resulting in to-days developments is
thought by to have represented the efforts
OF shorts to force the loosening OF the bull grip
on the May option.

FAILURE OF COTTON KING CAUSES
REALIZING MOVEMENT.
On The Decline There Were Heavy
Supporting Orders-Com ssion
Houses Issue Bullish Letters.


NEW YORK. March IS.-There was a rather
pronounced tapering of in the buying move
ment in stocks to-day anu the market proved
unable 10 withstand the weight OF the reail--
ing sales aggravated by the Sully failure.
The reduction OF the short interest accom-
pished by yesterdays active buying left the
market more vulnerable. But yesterdays al
vance had induced hopes OF further rise
and brought into the market this morning
slightly Increased demand.
Some of the big wire houses sent out letters
last night fl AIMED in a more bullish tone than
in any similar output in many weeks past The
result was a period OF strength during the early
part OF the day
Another sustaining factor has been the per-
sstence with which professional traders have
fought the advance by sales OF stocks The
necessity of covering these shorts as the ad-
vance continued has served TO extend the rise
materially.
The days early advance had been something
than lost and the market had steadied

Cotton Exchange extended the downward ten
