COTTON BEARS ARE
 MORE CONFIDENT Break in Prices at Liverpool
 Was Sensational
  NEW YORK OPENED WEAK Market Throughout the Day Was Fe- verIsil and rresuIar-5uyIns for
 Supposed Bull Pool Again
 Comes to Naught.
NEW YORK OPENED WEAK

New York, February 6.-The buying of cotton yesterday supposed to be for bull pool in order to regain control of the market came to naught again today. when sensational break in Liverpool. very threatening news from the far east, heavy estimated receipts and a bearish visible supply statement, rendered the To- cal bears more confident than ever.
 The New York market opened weak at B loss of 40 to 55 points which had been increased 52 to 56 points on the active months before the call was completed, with March selling as low as 1888, May 14.05 and July at 14.0S. Following this, there was considerable covering and prices rallied a few points from the bot tom. but every trihing bulge brought out fresh pressure and the market ruled fe- verish and irregular.
 The New Orleans market opened at a decline of 30 to S9 points and there was little sign of New Orleans buying in the local market. Trading after the call was only moderately active. Later New Or leans became frmer and covering move ment get in here, this, in connection with local and southern bull support, rallied the market from 20 to 45 points. The ad- vance met very heavy selling, chiefly from outside sources, and in the late trading the market was very weak. being finally easy at decline of 40 to S5 points.
 Closing prices were practically the low est with July quoted at 1899. Sales were estimated at 100000 bales. Receipts of cotton at the ports today were 2471 bales, against 32,5S1 last week, and 24.359 last year. For the week, 135,ooO bales, against 16f111 last week, and 197,181 last year. Today's receipts at New Orleans were 1o.950 bales against 7564 last year, and at Houston 653O bales against 564s last year.

Futures opened weak and prices were from 90 to 63 points lower than the close of yesterday; the trading was very light, and the few sell ing orders were quickly absorbed.

points on March, 11s on May and 1SS on July.
 The total visible supply of all kinds decreased 4400, during the week against a decrease of 76,000 last year. The visible supply of American during the same time decreased 61, ,O00 against a decrease of 112,- 900 last year. The total visible supply of all kinds is now 3,S47.o0O against 3,966,0 GOO last year, of which the American is 2934, : 900 against 3,037,000 last year. The total Liverpool stock of American ashore and anoat Is 718,000 against 766.0O0 last year. The spinners' takings of American during the past week were 26S.000 against 375,000 last year and their total talxings from September 1 to date have been 5,731, GOO against 5,S95,000 last year, or 164,O00 less. Last year the consumption of American was 10, GOO, consequently on the face of the takings, the indicated consumption this year Is 10, 695, ,000. The movement on it's face points to a crop of 10.724,000; therefore. taking the cLt-tdrn and con sumption as above it shows that the posi- tion is technically strong. If, however, the crop is not over 9,7500O0 bales as claimed by the maority of operators, then the strength of the situation admits of no argument. That the cotton trade seems imbued with the idea that the crop is so small that it will be insufficient to meet
 
 phenomenal advance of the past. It was this unanimity of opinion exciting in Am erica and especially throughout the south that made the local market the highest in the world The disregard of legitima te differences and unfavorable outside infiu- ences have been instrumental in forcing a decline of from to 415 cents from the top. This was certainly very unfortunate but is an object lesson to those who allow IL. H. lk.s4 1E I<~tx judgment. and could have been avoided had the local market been regulated by legitimate differences. Nevertheless the market is now in a healthier condition, owing to the heavy liquidation which has taken place. and if the census bureau on the 9th instant confirms small crop esti- mates the chances are a sharp advance will be quickly brought about. In the meanwhile, we think it advisable to oper- ate on conservative lines, unti1 it Is defin- itely known whether the eastern question will be settled amicaby or by war

Cochran 6 Co.'s Cotton Letter.


 New York. February e.-Unless some thing serious happens in New Orleans we are inclined to think the worst is over. The break this morning showed that there was very little long cotton of threatening nature held on slim mar gins and this hedped the situation very much. The crash of %c in spot cotton in Liverpool and the break in futures there shows a rather bad position but this should not continue. Prices have now worked back to a point where buying is likely to be of a more substantial char acter and the market should be steadier. In the end of course everything will de- pend on the size of the crop. We can expect more selling by the south on any advance from this point. After a break of this kind advances will depend more on virtue and less on force. If the crop proves ten million or under we will have higher prices later. But the figures show the movement is only a few thousand bales less than last year. several thous- and more than two years ago, both TO- 7O0,- GOO bale crops and 3O0000 bales over three years ago, a 10000 crop. We should think these figures would lead anyone to believe in crop of 10,200,0 900 or t, ,s0O, 900 in which event 15c is good price. For a time we would buy moderately on any big breaks unless New Orleans lets go
