 New Orleans Cotton Market
 New Orleans, october 25.--Cotton fu- lures opened barely steady at an ad- vance of 14 to 20 points on the very bullish report on ginning issued by the census bureau. The report stated that up to October IS there were ginned B. 41o,9S0 bales against 5,530,967 a year ago and s.296,1e6 bales in 1903.
 The trade had been educated up to the belief in a report of at least 6.000.- 900 bales and consequently as soon as the market opened there was a rush to buy. The weaker short element was the heaviest buyers and in the early trading the demand for covers was hard to fill. All other features of the market was lost sight of in the anxiety to discount the report. At the end of the first half hour of trading prices were 21 to % points up on the most active months. The weather map was favorable, dry and fairly warm wealth CT being indicated throughout the country but 1t had no effect on prices.
 With the details of the ginners' re- port before them and several states showing up very badly, shorts became more uneasy than when the market opened and tho demand from them in- creased. Offerings were scanty and came principally from the more con- servative bear element, which was strong enough to sell on scale up Weaker longs were glad to stop their losses Offerings from profit-taking longs were very small which proved that the contention of the bulls that the recent heavy long interest has been liQuidated Is true.
