 New Orleans. Feb 2S.-After selling as shortly after the opening. the local cotton market steadied up. and fair sized reaction followed, May contracts advancing to the lev al of 10. se for that option before buying market was steady at a net gain for the day of to 12 points. Spots were officially reported firm and unchanged Sales amount to arrive. on the basis of 10 e-16c f6r mid ding. The situation tn the March position was reversed today. and. instead of being the weakest month. it proved the strongest, a gain of only points on May and July. This sudden reversal of form. so to speak. was principally brought about by the the Liverpool market. A good demand for spots at full quotations was in evidence and this favorable feature encouraged some fresh buying on the opening break. On day. our market should have opened at least 10 points higher. but March deliveries caus- ed additional liquidation of that month here at the opening, and was responsibla for the in spots prevented & severe decline early in the H~". Late in the afternoon. when it became generally known a large spot house which has been heavy short of the March contract, had thought 1t advisable to reverse it's position and go long on that month. shorts became nervous and covered rather freely before the close; The reaction would been disposition in certain quarters to sell on the advance. As regards the March po- sition now. we be1ive the worst Is over at The general situation seems to be much healthier. and rather think that the bottom has been reached for sometime to come. A good trade demand will hold the market steady. despite the speculative influences that may be brought to bear.

LIVERPOOL WEEKLY COTTON.
CHICAGO GRAIN AND PROVISIONS

Chicago, Feb. 23.-Active covering by shorts caused a firm close today in the local wheat market although prices were a trifle below the final quotations of Wednesday. the May option being off 1-4c. Corn was up 1-4 to 3-Sc. Oats showed a gain of 1-4. Provisions were 1-2 to sc higher.
 The wheat market at the opening was decidely weak, initial quotations @7-S at S1 3-4 to S2. The chief bearlsh in- fiuence came from abroad. A cable gram was received from an English statistician telling of additional rains in India and giving revised setimate on the total wheat crop of Australia which showed an increase over figures previously given. Shipments from Ar CT than for the corresponding time year ago. The domestic situation also was favorable to the bears. mild weather throughout the entire wheat section of the United States being the main feature. During the first half hour there was apparently little dem and except from shorts and prices made further recessions from the open of the day was reached at S1 1-2 to 5-S. At that point shorts bought freely and the demand created by them caused moderate buying by pit traders. The market gradually became firmer and closing prices were almost at the high est point of the day. After touching 6Z 3-o mdy ciOSeQ HTIEl at oG l-4 10 0-o.
 Reports of damage to corn in cribby damp weather caused free covering by shorts and resulted in a firm close in the corn market. Early in the day sentiment was bearish because of lower cables and the decline in wheat. An advance of 1-2 a cent in the price of cash corn stimulated the demand for future deliveries. May opened Is to lie to 3-S to 1-2c lower. at 42 IA to 3-S to 42 1-2, sold up to 43 to 1e and closed at 43 Local receipts 40 cars:
 The weakness of wheat and corn had little effect on the oats market. there being a good demand throughout the day from leading longs. A report from New York that charters had been made there today to export 100000 bushels to France was the chief bullish in- fiuence The close was rirm with prices at almost the highest point May opened a shade to 1-S lower at 29 3-4 10 293 3-4 to 7-S, sold up to 30 Is to 1-2 and closed at 30 Is. Local receipts ITS cars.
 Provisions were firm for the great CT part of the day. Profits taking caused by the break in wheat and corn caused an easier tone carrier in the day, but the market soon recovered on buy ing by local packers and an advance of to 10c. in the price of live hogs. At the close May pork was up ? 1-2 at IS 62 1-2 lard was up 5c at :1!7 1-2 to 7SO Ribs were 1-2 to 5c higher at 8.22 1-2.
