New Orleans, April 19-Cotton spots closed firm at an advance of 3-16 of a point on all grades; middlng quoted 10 15-16. Sales were 26Oo bales ,on the spot and 300 to arrive
 Futures opened quiet at an advance of from 3 to 3 points over the close yester- day. There was an advance of 10 points on the May option during the hour im- mediately following opening, due to early covering by shorts and reports on the into sight figures which showed falling off in receipts. Adverse weather condi- tions reported to be existing throughout Texas and other portions of the cotton belt had the effect of continuing the ad- vance. particularly in May. There were slight recessions in values toward the close, due to profit taking. The close was steady, prices ranging from to 15 points above the close yesterday.

rumors in New York of additional flnanc-' in; by some of the railroads which sug- gested the ample requirements overhang- in: the New York money market to ab- so-5 available resources. Paris also re- asserted it's pressure on the London mar ket in a sharp drop in the sterling ex- change rate there.
 The feature of the preliminary estimates of the weeks currency movement by the local banks was the decisiveness of the movement in favor of the interior to bal ance out of New York, amounting ap- parently to between one and two million dollars. The gain by the banks on sub treasury operations of $4,S1j,000 will be reduced accordingly. A further loan ex- pansion is looked for from the fact that several large syndicate payments have been n ade during the week, while the re- payment of loans by interior banks and their transfer to New York banks Is supposed to have proceeded.
 Bonds were firmer, but very dull. To- tai sales, par value, $1,178,000
