PRICES BETTER IN
COTTON MARKET
Locally Only Few Bales
Poorer Grades Sold.


A better feeling seemed to pervade
the cotton market yesterday, though
a part of the opening gains were dis
sfpated during the session. May al
New York was an exception to the
general advance, opening and closing
at losses. Aside from the feeling,
which is becoming more general, that
prices have reached rock bottom
at last, there was little in the days
news to warrant any squirt. Liver
pool gave little encouragement at
the opening, but remained practically
stationary for the session. Price
changes were small, reactions being
followed by rallies of a few points.
Excluding March and May at New
York, the close was Z to 10 points
above the final for Saturday.
New York opened points down for
May but 2 to points up for other
active positions. The near positions
were sacrificed, while contracts were
transferred to later months. AS a
result March and May suffered The
close was steady, up for March, Z off
for May, up for July and II up for
October, as compared with the close
for the previous session. Spot prices
were uuCnduS9Q. New orleans open
ed to II points higher, March lead
ing by 10 points. Around the noon
hour the later months were several
points above the opening, but prices
eased off After the close at New
York the Southern market advanced
several points, as has been the custom
for some time. The close was steady,
II to 13 points net higher for the
day. Spot quotations were unchang-
ed.
Liverpool opened 4 to points down
and made small changes The close
was quiet and steady, 2 IL to IL
points below the final for Saturday.
The market is due unchanged to 1
point up this morning. Spot prices
are reduced 6 points, with sales of
1000 bales, which was larger than for
some days.
The local spot market was again ex-
ceedingly dull. A few bales of poor
er grade cotton changed hands on the
basis of quotations or lower. No
demand was in evidence for the better
grades. Quotations are nominally un-
changed in the absence of transac-
tions. The firmness of holders does
not warrant any belief in further
reduction in the near future. Quota
tions given below are unchanged from
Saturday.

CLARK & co.'s COTTON LETTER

NEW YORK, Feb. 17.-Our opening
was better than expected and while
there was not the full response on
this side expected or due, shorts were
not so confident as they have been
recently and there was more DISPOSE
ton to act cautiously than has been
noted for some days. LiverpooPs spot
business was better and the weekly
trade cable from Manchester was
more favorable as to the business with
China. On this side there was the
usual lack of buying power, but
sellers were shy and the market
showed a decided Improvement in
tone.
Break from the opening attracted
covering and prices worked up
quietly thereon. Trade reports are
showing very little change, but it is
becoming evident that continued small
movements and steadiness in spots
is causing some uneasiness among the
short ranks, which are thought to be
quite large Weather is favorable

head reports of new crop work in
