most rapidly was attributed largely to houses having important Philadelphia connections, while it was the common supposition that large realizing sales were made for account of various western centers.
 There was little actual news to ac- count for the various movements in the market, and the current discussion had more to do with the rumored formation of new pools and combinations to operate in certain stocks. Missouri Pacific was notably affected by such rumors. Amalga- mated Copper became very active with the announcement of an advance in the price of crude copper. On the other hand copper in London was reactionary as also was silver, and this seemed to have larger influence on the movement in smelting. It was not late in the day when move ment in Erie, Atchison and Union Pacific suggested any general attention to the railroad list. The money market contin- ued tranquil and reflected no preparations for tomorrow's offering of S12500,O00 or New York city bonds, nor any effect Of the firmer tone of foreign exchange. The rise in cotton was assigned as the cause for firmer exchange rates. The market made some recovery from the active selling movement of the last hour, but the closing was irregular.
 Bonds were steady. Total sales, par value, s5,390,000.
 United States bonds were all unchanged on call.

CABLES ARE NO CRITERION
ng.

New York, November 22.-The violent excitement of yesterday seemed to have exhausted the bulllsh effect of the census report, and after responding to local bulls this morning the cotton market made a somewhat irregular but generally steady showing The realizing of smaller longs and selling for a turn by scalpers being absorbed by fresh buying orders at the comparatively moderate reaction from the top. The market closed steady at a net decline of 4a1o points. Sales were esti- mated at 500 900 bales
 The opening was steady at an advance of 4G11 points or rather better than due on the cables which expected to come about 31 to 8 points higher were only 27Q 2S points higher at the hour of the local opening Trading was feverishly active A large number of overnight buying orders were on hand early and while there was also heavy realizing prices worked up to about the closing figures of yesterday during the first half hour. But most of the friends of the market were apparently waiting for a further reaction before buy ing, and the market during the middle session settled off to a decline of about 12 to fl points under scattering realizing and selling for turn by local profess sionals. Good buying orders were encoun- tered on scale-down. however, and dur ing the afternoon the market recovered part of the loss, and closed steady, with prices only 22Q30 points below the highest figures for the season touched yesterday.
 Receipts at the ports today, 5S,744 bales, against 59.697 last week and 46770 last year. For the week. estimated, 370,00O bales against S9l,6l1 last week and 3733l2 last year. Today's receipts at New Orleans, 1S,- 233 bales against 15,60S last year, and at Houston 14096 bales against 2o,s& last year

Lovcman ( Co.'s Market Letter.

The temptation of 80 great an advance was more than foreign traders could resist today. General realizing to accept profits, the fruits of yesterdays census ginners report occasioning a more important ad- vance than expected, Liverpool closing 33 points higher than yesterday, when a rise of about 10 points higher was looked for. Cables reported the continent a heavy seller to realize. as was also MT. Buston. The unsettled state of af- fairs was reflected in small spot sales in the English market, only 5000 bales having been disposed of at price 30 points better than yesterday. Middling, sos.
 American markets, especially New Or leans, paid but little attention to the apparent indifference of Liverpool and in- stead of opening about 20 points lower. the market opened practically unchanged from last nights closing. March, 1.s0. There was heavy profit taking in both American markets in early morning and not little selling by many in hope of bringing about reaction, but IS the spot markets throughout the south ruled firm and unchanged to shade higher. New Orleans closing firm at yesterd1y's quota tions Sales 3050 bales and 1900 to arrive. Middling, 111kc Futures ruled compara- lively steady notwithstanding our being out of line of about 25 points too high with Liverpool March after nuctuating between 1l.7o and 11.s4, finally closed at HI.

and in case of any further decline in the market we apprehend strong resistance and good investment buying.
 If, as we believe. the long interest IS to a considerable extent in the hands or spinners. who have protected their inter est by buying futures at the consider able discount under spots which has pre- vailed of late. this feature will be an nm portant factor operating against shorIs when Their necessities require settle ment of the paper contracts they have so freely thrown on the market.
 Mr. Dietz reaffirms his original crop es- timate of S,960,o00 bales, and Is confident that his dgures are reasonable and will be borne out by subsequent facts
 Everything considered. we believe that cotton is good property and that pur- chases well protected will not disappoint buyers.
 Spots in New orleans are firm and lac tors were asking an eighth advance or llSs middling basis this morning.
