 Gives Bears Advantage.

New Orleans, Feb. 2O.-It was an excit- ing session for a Saturday in the cotton market.
 Prices rose and fell with great rapidity ms the events of the day first favored the longs and then the shorts. At the middle ct the short trading day the indications were that prices would close considerably hiGhek than yesterday on the strength of the wAAk'e statistics but cables telling of q penie aB the Paris bourse and of the depaFkiFe from London of the Russian AubaF1gaPg played the game into the hands, of the bears and the closing show cd 8 net loss for the day of from 8 to 8 points
 At the opening it was evident that both shorts and longs had determined to oper- ate Nith great conservatism. Two days of rest were to follow the session and it was hard work guessing what two days time might bring forth. Few traders of either side cared to carry either long or short contracts over until Tuesday morn- Ing Therefore at the opening with an unfavorable set of Liverpool cables it was an easy matter for the bears to hammer prices down untl they were a quarter of Q cent lower than yesterdays close, Sta ustics were 50 bullish, however, that lead Ing bulls took on courage and became az wresslve buyers and many conservative soA@S AVHVWeu the Iean. This buying soon nbscfbed the offerings of shorts and caused prices to advance until they were From P to S1 points higher than the lowest levels of the morning and l4 and I5 points ni8her than the close of yesterday
