MARKET FOR FUTURES
CLOSING IN NEW ORLEANS SERVES TO
 CURTATL BUSINESS.
At the End of the Session Prices Arc at
 Almost the Low Level of the Day, Being 5 to Points Off.

New York, Jan. s.-The cotton market was generally quiet. The closing of New Orleans for Battle of New Orleans Day. probably had some influence In curtailing business.
 W The market after ruling quite steady in the early trading, turned easier in the af- ternoon and bear pressure based on reports Of freer spot offerings in the South, closing nt the lowest.
 " The opening was steady at an advance of .1 point to a decline of points, the easier tendency of the later months being due to Bomewhat lower Liverpool cables than ex- pected. But there comparatively little cotton for sale early, and private re- ports from the South received late on Sat- urday reported very firm spot markets Smaller shorts covered and some of the large professionals seemed to bull the mar ket, which slowly responded, worked up to q net gain of about 516 points.
 At this level smaller shorts turned for profits. and later bearish messages from New Orleans coupled with some selling or Gers from that city weakened the market. N The close was steadied by room shorts but was almost at the low level of the day, or n net decline of 599 points. Sales were es- &tmated at 150,000 bales.

CHICAGO GRAIN AND PRoyIsIoNs.

Chicago. Jan. s.-Cold wave predictions brought out an active demand in wheat to- day, resulting in sharp advances. At the close the May option was up 1&c. Corn and oats are practically unchanged. Provisions are off 2h G7hc
 With the exception of a short period of uncertainty immediately after the opening sentiment in the wheat pit was decidedly builish. Influenced by firm cables and by a liberal decrease in the amount of bread stuffs on passage. the market was firm at the opening, May being up Q kc at 1.15% @I.15&. The situation in the Northwest, however. was apparently less bullish, arriv- als today showing a considerable increase over recent receipts As a result of the freer movement there was fair scattered selling by commission houses. Offerings were not readily taken and in consequence the market received slight setback, May declining to 1.1SA Later news from the Northwest became more encouraging to bull traders, an excellent demand for cash wheat, especially of the lower grades be- ing reported at Minneapolis. On active GOV ering by shorts prices became buoyant. A decided source of anxiety to shorts was an official forecast of cold wave in Kansas and Nebraska, where the winter crop is said to be insufficiently protected by snow. supply would show decrease of 10,000, 900 bushels during December against an in crease of 4,000,000 the corresponding time a year ago was another factor partly re- sponsible for the strength manifested late in the day. After May had sold up to IFS a reaction occurred on profit taking, the
 
 market. however. quickly rallied on renew ed covering. Final quotations May were 1.17A.
 Notwithstanding the strength of wheat the corn market was barely steady. Senti- ment at the start was quite weak and offer ings moderately free, the bear influence be- ing liberal receipts and drop in tempera- ture. Selling was led by cash houses. As the session advanced the market became stronger in sympathy with wheat, but clos ing prices showed only very slight gain. May opened unchanged to a shade lower at 44ss G44h to 4419, sold between 44N and 44Ss G44% and closed at 441R 444ss. Local receipts were 4S5 cars, four contract.
 The feature of trading in oats liqui- dation of the May delivery. The market was rather weak early in the session. but later steady tone developed. The main strengthening influence was the bulge in wheat. May opened a shade lower at 3oA, sold between 3os a3O% and S1 and closed at SoA,
 A 10 cents advance In the price of hogs had a strengthening effect the pro- visions market. Offerings were not large and fair scattered demand prevailed. At the close May pork up 1ac at 10. 63h. Lard was up 21a q Sc at 6.s71a 96.9o. Ribs were Dc higher. at 6.65.
 The leading futures ranged as fellows.

IoyEMAN & CO.'S COTTON LETTER.

New Orleans Jan 9.--First prices in Liv- erpool were quite disappointing; but the early decline of l point promptly re- covered and prices closed finally points higher than yesterday. which is about on a parity with level of Saturday. Some strength developed here during the early morning, mainly due to the small port re- celpts and the belief that a continuance of the recent good spot demand would pre- time prices sold points higher than yes- &erday. The first weakness was shown when &he estimate for New Orleans tomorrow showed a considerable increase over last Houston also. although still under last year. were so much better than for some time past to encourage the belief that the end of the very small movement was at hand. It will be remembered that con siderable quantity of cotton let go by farmers on the recent rise of about & c and it ia only natural for cotton to begin to show soon at the seaboard News from the South indicated that there was more dspo- Bition to sell than last week and the de- 1nand runs almost entirely to grades from for lower grades has resulted in easier prices for the latter and the probability that Eniddling and lower grades will be marked down while prices of the higher ones will be left undisturbed. A feature also which weakened the situation was statement by the Georgia Cotton Company of holdings in fhe territory covered by its buyers. In z2 towns in Georgia and in eastern Alabama, the total warehouse stocks on Jan. l were TO 222 bales against only 20,027 last year. S5.61S in 1903, 33.SS5 fin 1902, and 63,051 fin iso1 The only one of these points includ- cd in the official list of counted towns this year are $500. against 2,6oO year ago. Brokers operating for the leading bear be- came active when the absence of outside support was noticeable and assisted in de- pressing prices about 20 points from the highest of the morning. Close shows net loss of about II points, with months relatively steady. Liverpool is due to come to lower in the morning.

lowing the crack shots Of the National
Guard, who are practicing for the ma.
tional rife competition at Seagirt.
New Jersey, will have their first
shooting competition for records. The
team will leave for the mainland next
month. AS the United States pays a.!
the travelling expenses OF the team hs
sides giving them Army pay. the com
petition among the Guardsmen Is Ger
tain to become interesting. as the men
are naturally eager to be chosen for
the team.
The best shots of the National Guard
have been practicing at the rifle butts
for some time, but the first regular
competition shoots are yet to come.
There will probably be three of these
held on successive Sundays. On the
result of these competitions the SO.
lection of the members of the team
will largely depend.
I'VE will keep careful score of the
records made by the men In these rec.
ord competitions" said Colonel Jones
In discussing the subject this morning.
we have, however. also been keeping

tice which has been had SO far. It
does not necessarily follow that those
making the highest scores will be Sc.
