Ware 6 Leland Market Letter.

For the first time in some days there was some real animation in the cotton market. The advance in Liver. ool for the second successive day helped unsettle the short interest and there was some eottton bought by those who have been waiting for the first signs of a change.
 There seems to be nothing in the out look to bring out much of an advance. but on the other hand the movement Of cotton is small In the south and the New Orleans convention promises to be an enthusiastic one
 As cotton Is fast getting to a point where investment on a large scale IS likely. shorts are not likely to sell when any sign of steadiness appears.
 The Liverpool market closed at the top of the day and this carried July higher 691
 For nearly two hours July sold around 6SS, and considering the opening price was 6.S5. This showed a very steady tone.
 The Russian difficulty was still a very serious factor and prevented many from buying. On the other hand there is an extensive short interest in the cottton market, and should the New Orleans con- vention adopt some radical measures looking towards financing the cotton held in the south and planting wheat and corn and other things that bring much better prices, there will be a readjustment in prices of cotton during the coming six months.

ings for the third week in January re- ported by the Missouri Pacific. The de- cline In net earnings for the Wabash for December was effective in the same direction The very heavy demands reached by the gold export movement today was a chilling influence on spec uiative sentiment, the more so as the movement has no oefined limit in sight It Is evident that Paris regards its large holdings of Russian securities as re- quiring the fortifylng of its gold reserve tc an important extent. The dispute amongst the railroads over Export grain reports, as between the Atlantic and the gulf ports, came in for consideration and favorable action by a congressional committee upon the a proposed investi- gation of the United States Steel corpor- ation weighed upon it's securities. The gold outgo caused a firmer tone for time loans, but the premium on New York exchange at Chicago rose sharply, indi- eating available source for still further replenishing the local money supply. The demand to cover from the days short selling was sufficient to effect material rally, and the closing was firm at re- coveries from the extreme declines.

WEAKNESS BECOMES
 MORE PRONOUNCED
Attributable to Uncertain Out
 look in Russia
! )RElGN TRADERS SHAKY
With Prospects Poor for an Advance In Prices, 1t Was Considered Part of Wisdom to
 Llghten Holdings.

New York, January 25.-Weakness of stocks, which became more pronounced today, was doubtless attributable to the uncertain outlook in Russia, but the eff feet was not produced directly through the usual channels. In fact, London bought here during the early part of the day almost as freely as it sold on Monday.
 The tone of the foreign markets gener- ally also reflected a relaxation of the acute anxiety over the situation in Rus sia, and the point of view adopted was indicated by the circulation of rumor that advances were making toward medi- ation between Russia and Japan as a consequence of embarrassments of the Russian government at home. This for eign influence and the demand to cover shorts from the late sellers of yesterday gave the upward impulse to prices at the opening. A tendency has been noticeable on the part of professional traders to put out line of short contracts late in the day on the suppesition that unexpected events over night would be likely to favor the bear side
 With the opening of the following day s market and with affairs in St. Petersburg apparently better than worse, the market has been strong in the early dealings. But with the better basis of prices afforded by the opening advance today there was some important speculative liquidation. This was believed to come largely from western sources and from the great steel centers on the part of operators who were responsible for the large transactions of last week on the long side of the mar ket. While no positively unravorable news became known to account for the specula- tive liquidation, it WAS thought probable that it had been decided by those who had entered on the speculation that no considerable public interest could be ex- pected In the market, while affairs in Russia continued in so uncertain a state.
 With prospects poor for an advance in prices 1t seemed to be considered the part of wisdom to tighten holdings. The 1ull in the activity of the interior freight movement makes an impression on sen timent and this was reinforced today by the sharp falling off of gross earn

PEACE TALK AN INFLUENCE

New York, January 25-The cotton market was more active. Shorts showed considerable nervousness, particularly to- ward the close, when buying was ac- celerated by talk of steader spot mar kets and peace in the far east, and final prices were firm at about the best figures of the session.
 The opening was firm at an advance of to points in response to better cables than expected. But the overnight news from New Orleans cotton convention was disappointing. One private wire said the talk of the delegates seemed to indicate a 14,000e coo bale crop; covering was not specially active, and shortly after the call prices went back under a renewal of bear pressure, and liquidation to within about 3 to points of last nights finals Following this, the market was again rallied by reports that delegates to the convention were signing a pledge to re- duce acreage 33l2 per cent, instead of the suggested 25 per cent. and still late private wires from New Orleans claim ing an advance of 1La per cent in the spot market helped to advance prices Before the close assertions that bullish cables had been received from Liverpool claiming that peace in the far east was only a question of days, also exerted a considerable influence, and the market closed at a net advance of II to 17 points. Sales futures were etstimated at 300, GOO bales.
 Receipts of cotton at the ports today 21,1ST bales against 1SS74 last week, and 2l,172 last year. For the week 16O0O0 bales against AT last week, and 196, 29S last year. Todays receipts at New Orleans 9Sz7 bales against S270 last year and at Houston 6129 bales against 72S5 last year.
