LovEMAN q CO.'S COTTON LETTER.

New Orleans March 15.-There was a
 continuation of yesterdays activity in the
 market today and at one time values were
 10 points higher than last nights closing
 level. May selling as high at 7.9s. after
 opening at an advance of two points. Liverpool made a full response to our im- provement of yesterday, closing Il points up
 for futures. and spot sales there were in creased to 12.000 bales.
 Shorts were the principal buyers in early
 morning. number of stop loss orders being reached on the way up. The further ad-
 ket. early purchases having been made hc higher than yesterday, but the afternoon easier tendency of the contract market in- duced buyers to withdraw from the spot market, which was officially quoted as hay ing opened higher but closed firm and un- changed on sales of $500 and 3,100 to ar rive; middling, 11-16c.
 The gist of the news was that a new bull pool was forming in New York to advance cotton and that Wall Street was buying fn contemplation of same. The market ruled very steady until reports from the interior began coming in telling of holders selling freely of spots. first from one section and then another. Private wires were received from every district of the belt some report ing movement unusually heavy for this
 period of the year. while number told of receipts being comparatively small, but all concluded with farmers are selling free iy.
 The movement has been heavy of late, but there is hardly a possibility of falling off, since large blocks have been reported sold on this rise at inland points. The lower range or LutureS III afternoon was not due to
 longs covering. but to the exhaustion of the buying power. Liverpool cabled that the South was offering freely there this afternoon, and it is not unlikely that the English market will
 lose all of the expected six or seven points in the morning.
 Weather conditions are more favorable than what forecasts have indicated of late.
 but probable showers will more than likely occur over the greater portion of the Vest ern belt by tomorrow and if general would be unsatisfactory. The movement and the crop. however. are too large to permit of any bull campaign, and ahorts will find that | the surplus in the interior will be their protection. even though stocks be small here | and at New York, as any advance of conse- quence will bring out more than the trades requirements
 What we have to fear most is the surplus | held back. as on such Improvements as we have had of late. will be taken advantage of to rid the interior of its holdings. The l weeks' insight will probably be about 100, 900 larger than last years 113.000, as re- ceipts have been so large at the thirteen | towns for the half week to permit of the | shipment of 57,000 bales and an increase in stocks of 1000 bales.

CASTRO RREAkS UITH Is.
Sewers Relations With Minister Bowen
After Asphalt Proposals Failed.

WASHINGTON. Jan. 20.-Disquieilng IN
formation from Venezuela has been re-
ceived here President Castro. after at
tempting to commit this Government to
proposals. which were regarded by the
state Department az likely TO prevent the
United States from exercising proper
rights in the settlement of the asphalt
controversy, suddenly broke off relations
with Herbert w Bowen, the American
Minister and left Caracas. In official circles
il is regarded a. extremely likely that the
United States Government will soon take
vigorous action with reference 10 Castro's
attitude in the asphalt controversy.
President Castro's latest proposition
TO MIR, Bowen was that permanent arbitra-
ton be established between the two
countries Tho plan was rejected, mas
much az both countries are sigma tories TO
the general arbitration agreement which
was arranged at the Pan American Con-
eress in the City of Mexico several years
ago.
Then President Castro suggested that
if there should be arbitration the first ques-
ton I, be considered was whether the
United States had the right to intervene
in the asphalt case now pending. He con-

affair and not to he medded with by the
American Government. The United States
rejected this prop osal also
Castro further proposed that in case II
was decided that the United States did have
a right to intervene he should consent TO
an arbitration Of the asphalt question. The
entire scheme was rejected by Minister
Bowen. and Castro left Caracas.
Should President Castro's plans be
accepted the settlement Of the asphalt
troubles would be placed months away.
His refusal 10 negotiate further makes
another course on the part Of this Govern
ment probable. 1t was said to-day that
with arbitration out Of the way more radical
measures might be deemed necessary.
