Loveman 6 Co.'s Market Letter.

It was common rumor this morning al- though perhaps entitled to little eredence that the head of the recently formed B cent syndicate had sold out something like fifty thousand bales of long cotton on Liverpool and New York presumably at a loss of a couple of hundred thousand dol lars, Ito be charged to experience ac- count"
 At any rate there were unexpectedly heavy liquidation here at the opening Prices cut through the previous low level to the extent of about 10 points. There was also a general movement to take profits by shorts and it is probable that the market as a whole Is more nearly lquidated on both sides of the account than for many months past.
 Longs have been forced out gradually by the big decline while shorts are con- tent to talk down their profits and await the next movement in prices. One of the causes responsible for the recent demoral- lzation was a rumor that spot houses have given orders to sell March and buy May to the extent of 150,0O0 bales or more at difference ranging from 20 to 24 points between March and May.
 The natural conclusion Is that these or ders represent a transfer of hedges against our certificated stock of 10000 bales from March into May whenever It can be made at differences sufficient to pay carrying charges and interest and therefore the speculative element must be long of the equivalent number of bales of March cotton. While such conclusion is in our opinion far-fetched, there Is no doubt that some long interest still re- mains in March and confidence will not be restored until notice day shall have been passed.
 The same unsettled sentiment prevails in New Orleans where notice day will ar rive three days earlier than here, namely. on February 23 The notable feature of the day has been the large business trans acted in spots In New Orleans and while it may be argued that big sales on de- clning market are a sign of weakness of holders, still the fact remains that exporters and consumers are taking the stuff when they can get 1t at concessions and this in the end will prove bull card.
 Liverpool is due to come unchanged to point higher in the morning.

 The market opened easy at decline of 2d5 points and inside of fifteen min utes sold off to net decline of 14q15 points under stop loss orders, which were brought out by yesterdays late margin calls and local bear pressure Around To- 40 for March and 10.eO for May, or about sSqS9 points down from the high point of last week and 90l1 points be- low the low level of February 6, bet ter demand developed for the account of local shorts, European trade interests Prices rallied several points during the middle session on this buying and err ports of a big sRet business at New Orleans where leading exporters were credited with purchasing a large block of actual cotton, but turned somewhat easier again toward the close under a renewal of bear pressure and realizing by some of the early buyers last prices were to ! points up from the low point of the session.

Ware 6 LeIand,s Market Letter.

The action of the market this morning was not at all surprising. The failure of prices to rally over Il cents after every effort had been made to get out of long cotton, bought by reactionists left these holders to sell out at time when the short interest was pretty well covered up and there was little support.
 When Liverpool made a full response to the local decline prices here broke off into new ground and May finally sold at 10. 60 under conditions of considerable ex- citemept
 Trading was on an active scale and there was more swapping done this morn Ing than at any time this season.
 The difference between March and May wldened to 21 points at one time, while the May-July difference became 15 and IS points. This shows pressure of actual cotton.
 The only buying that prevents an open break in March on the still uncompleted liquidation is the buying by houses who are willing to take the March on con- tract and sell the May for the carrying charges. AS for actual demand for the cotton itself there is not enough in sight to prevent such liquidation and lower prices as we have see nrecently.
 There Is very little in the way of news to stimulate buying and unless we have serious difficulties to interfere with the planting season, there is every reason to believe that cotton will be selling There is every reason to believe that cotton will be selling considerable lower than it is now. before 1t is early summer.
 We continue to hold to the opinion that until something new develops to change the market cotton is sale on all hard spots.

EARLY TRADING DONE FOR BEARS After First Hour the Stock Market Strengthened READING WAS THE TEA TURF its Furious Activity overshadowed the Whole Market-HlIl Stocks Were
 Again Conspicuous In
 the Trading.
READING WAS THE FEATURE

New York February 20.-The evidence
 that urgent pressure to sell was complet-
 ed for the time being, which made It.
 self manifest in yesterdays stock mar ket, was confirmed by the early action
 of prices today. There was some waver- ling during the first hour of the trading which carried the level below last night for a brief time. The latter action of the market, however demonstrated that this selling was mostly for bear account in an effort to renew the decline. The demand to cover short sales then made helped the general strength of the latter
 market. The advances were yielded ab- ruptly before the close on the eight per
 cent call loan rate
 There were some outstanding short ac- Icounts to be covered which were of lon- ger standing and probably represented more substantial speculative sentiment. Such short covering was very obvious lin Reading. This stock was the feature of the day and its furious activity caused by the enormous stocks absorbed on the advance overshadowed the whole mar |ket. In spite of thls congestion of ac- |fivity in Reading and to a less extent | in a few other prominent stocks, the |yolume of the dealings contracted con Isiderably. The yielding tendency of the market during the first hour, in which Reading fully shared, was due in large |part to the deduction drawn by specula- |tive operators from the decision of the |supreme court against the c. and o. in the |matter of transportation charges for coal |sold for it's own account.
 It was inferred that the present status |of the anthracite companies would bring them within the scope of the decision with wide reaching effect on the busi- ness of the combined anthracite com panies. This opinion was modified on |closer study of the decision by the court
