New York, March 14.-The cotton ma:- ket opened steady tu firm with the old serop unchanged to points lower, while .fhe new crop positions were 10nn points Higher on continued reports of dry wealth sr and early appearance Of boil weevu. The opening losses on the near months were less than due on the cables for while it appeared that the room elcment were inclined to take bearish view of painting spot sales in Liverpool and ex- pectations that the movement would show an expanding tendency, there was eering sources attracted, presumably. by the strong showing of Saturdays mar kets and at first also the local bull lead CT and New Orleans were buyers; After kn shade over Saturdays finals, how ever. the market turned easier.
 The Houston estimate, while light as compared with last year, was still rather above recent average; suggesting the ac- curacy of predictions of a freer movement in the immediate future and Liverpool from Manchester less favorable as to de- xaand for cloths. Shortly after the open tnR here there was selling by leading spot people and prices began to work lower As they declined the room became more Aggressively bsarish, bull support was partially withdrawn and the market broke about 8 to 3e points cni the active positions. At this level the local bull leader began buying the summer months. and there was some covering for early sellers tskIng profits. This led to a rally Of about 15 points but in the early after noon the list again weakened and broke through the previous low point with May selling around 1921 and July 16, ,22, a net 4eeiine of 70 points. Following this fluc- knatAons were comparatively narrow and WFeguIar.

 NEW ORLEANS. March IA Liverpool fur nished the incentive for an about face in the tendency of cotton. though the opportunity to adopt the chance was not taken advan- tage of in a spirited way on this side, and the net result Is trifiing by comparison with the possibilities. Despite fairly large transactions on the spot in the English market at ad- vanced prices. deliveries assumed an atti- tude of contrariness and were more inclined to pursue q downward course. This was ac- counted for by the explanation that recent speculative purchases for Egyptian and con tinental operators were in process of liduida- ton though it Is presumed in some instances that English spinners have temporarily sat- iEfed their requirements through the medium of large spot engagements during the last two weeks. and relaxation of tho firmness in prices Is accordingly to be- expected for the time being. There was covering here in moderate volume by scattered 1ongs infu- enced to a greater extent, by. the knowiedTn that spots had drifted into a state of com paratiye apathy. than. by the disappointing disposition of Liverpool The pressure was not severe. however, and while prices ruled lower there was more or less resistance to tho decline. Thus the situation continues to be governed almost exclusively by the move ment and spot demand. and pronounced de- Velopments In connection with these features will. furnish the guide for the present ten
 dencY of prices, though any serious break would seem. to put very favorable oppor- tunity for purchases especially 1T receipts continue diminishing at alarming rate

e. B. Pierce & Co.'S Cotton retter.

(lly Private Wire from C. W Lee & Col NEW YORK. Marth -I4.--There seemed to hc more selling by those who bought in Liv- ofr early. IL was evident from tho action of Liverpool that some h.ave selling was go- ing there and local traders did not hesitate very long about throwing cotton over Tho stun bought Friday and Saturday below l5h q 6h contS came out prices work ed hack to these figures, On the break below I6 30 traders took cotton and put the mar ket up quickly. then the break In the stock market helped the liquidation and prices worked back during the afternoon trading. There was very little snap to the market and more less heaviness. This so marked abroad that many sold out. fearing a further set back. As long receipts con. tinue light 1t is impossible for the market to change radically. in our opinion. Of course prices have had such m advance that a set hack to 6 cents Is quito possible. This set hack would not change the outlook. Until the reaction Is seen to be over. would go slow on the buying side for the moment.

ever. was only temporary. because the lack Of demand for spots. freer recepts in the in- terior and the expected increase in the move ment, from the recent spot, sales brought about liquidation. which caused break of A to 45 from the top. Shorts covering sub sequently occasioned an advance of tte to io from the. bottom. Near the close though
 values again eased off slightly. making the net loss S3 to 34 points on the day. on old crop months whereas the new crop options ruled steady closing practically unchanged from Saturdays figures. ., .a
 Port receipts for the three days aggregate 5000 against 3l ,ooo last year. The five leading interior towns during the Gane time received 23,0oo. against ie,o0o last year, showing no loss in stock in either year. Tho port stocks are now 6l5.ooo. against 646. 900 last year. or only 3l.oo0 less. In other words. the movement the whole Is larger than expected, and stocks are accommodating relatively both at the ports and interior towns. owing to the light foreign exports and small shipments to American mills. These figures
 the unfavorable attitude of Liverpool Satur- day. and the easier feeling in spots, were in- strumental in bringing about the sharp de- cline. Of course large exports and renewed buying of spots by spinners would quickly change sentiment. especially as q buliish cen- sus bureau estimate is looked for during the latter part of the month. Notwithstanding the general statistical situation Is strong, the future course of the market will be ruled by receipts, the spot demand, and advices from the interior about the new crop outlook.

This had it's effect on tho Nmcricau markets and some feared that it indicated most serious phase of tho political condition of Europe. but we attributed Ii to hravy liquidation. The after noon weakness in cotton was due to the sweep ing decision in Northern Securities Company case, which. tt feared would cause i panicky feeling in the stock market which might be extended Temporarily 10 cotton and there n good deal sold. hut this was only temporary and the. market rallied On all declines cotton has been very susceptible to the slightest buying support. anu while 1t is nervous and easily depressed by manipu- Iatlon. thero Is news which will justify tho selling of tho market and we favor its purchase.
