NEW ORLEANS COTTON.

New Orleans, March 24.-Spot cotton was
steady with prices unchanged. Middling
1e%e. Sales were $3.50 bales on the spot and
geo to arrive.
Futures opened steady, two to eight points
below the close Of yesterday a result OF
the depression at Liverpool. wher the weak
ness was reported 70 be due to notices OF
cuFtaiment in the mills. The downward
tendency marked the market until well on
in the day when the report became current
taht list OF strict middling cotton had
sold In the local market we'll above previous
quotations. This impaired considerable
strength to futures. but lack of support
caused another droo to lower levels before
the close, which was easy. with the active
months eight to fifteen points below the
close yesterday.
