NERVOUSNESS is
SHOWN IN COTTON
Sharp Early Decline Followed
by Reaction
RECEIPTS ARE HEAVIER
Near the Close the Bulls Again Came
to the Rescue and There Was
Much Covering BY the
Early Sellers.

New York, May 2.-The cotton market
was nervous and unsettled with a sharp
early decline, followed by reaction to
the closing prices of the previous day.
The opening was weak at a decline of
5a10 points, and shortly afterwards the
market increased the decline to or 3
points on the active months under scat
tering liquidation and bear pressure, fol-
lowing Liverpool cables, good weather in
the belt and heavier receipts than looked
for. After selling off to about 742 for
July, good bull support developed, and
bears seeing Wall street brokers with
good buying orders withdrew offerings, al
lowing the market to creep up to within
or points of last nights close when
there was another break to nearly the
previously low point, following the wealth
er report which was bearishly inclined as
interpreted by certain local operators.
The bulls again came to the support of
the market checking the decline and in
the late trading there was covering by
early sellers. The close was steady, net
unchanged TO points lower Sales esti-
mated 25000 bales Receipts of cotton at
the ports 1867 bales, against 1897 last
week and 1888 last year. For the week
(estimated) 10000. against 1884 last
week, and s4S12 last year. Todays re-

Ware & LeIsnd's Market Letter.

There was a break of ten points at one
time today but the market held the
advance very well and Ircre was enough
resistance to pressure to keep shorts COW
ering all the time. After the opening
there was a recovery to IA for July and
then a break on the week weather re-
port The report was anything but good,
and later on when sellers tried to buy
cotton July ran to the high point of the
day. 1t looks as though holders would
make another effort to bull the market
and with bad weather prices can be adj
vanced really. If we get some good
weather now after the April rains, as is
more than likely. 1t will be difficult to
encourage speculation after the advance
Of half cent We would rather see an
other break of 10 to 10 points before buy
ing again. This may not come. The price
IS not high and for this reason we may
not have much of break this trip. On
any decline cotton bought can be sold at
a profit II buyers only have patience. Tn
der ~ in New York cotton is reasonable
no matter how much we raised last year.
II the south Is going to reduce acrege
10 or IS per cent. cotton is cheap Tt
will take another big crop to put the
market to the price so many have predict
ed We believe in buying cotton on all
breaks
