NEW ORLEANS, Nov. 22.-Liverpool
was good until the last hour when the
market weakened points. Spot prices
points lower; sales, 5000 bales. The
easiness Is probably due to Saturday
Indifference and the antagonistic atti-
advices reported a large spot house
with q large following in Europe as
selling all the week
Opinions were bearish this morning
1t is hard to say exactly what caused
this change after a decline of l cent
holders are not acting right and that
marketing is still too free for capital to
take @ bullish stand on the supply and
consumption proposition.
Our market opened points lower
and weakened to 1910 for March around
the close. Bearish opinion from the
New York market affects support for
the present, but opinion here is bullish
as to the ultimate outcome on account
of deficiency of the crop and disappear
ance of reserves. II is up to the spot
holder to stem the tide. Any resistance
on their part will promptly stop the de-
cline, the more so, as that portion of
lection of short futures Is smaller than
usual.
The Liverpool stock to-day is 336, 900
bales less than last year At the end
of last week 1t was $4,000 bales less
Spot people report market dull and
easier, lower futures affecting the posi-
ton of smaller holders.
The demand increased on the decline
AND the market is apparently hard to
depress.

GRAIN NOTES

The Chicago Inter Ocean says: "It
was noticeable by the bears in wheat
that many longs were disposed to take
profits, while the news was bullish and
that outside trade was too light for
bulge at present. despite the hardening
of the December.
at was said that some of the most
rampant bulls in corn of late advocate
taking of profits and believe that they
will be able to get their corn back a few
cents cheaper next week"
Bartlett Frazier Company says:
"Wheat--In view of yesterdays de-
cline, we would not be surprised to see
the market steady to-day.
"Corn-The map shows more or less
unsettled weather conditions; some rain
in Iowa, Nebraska and Illinois. The
short side is very popular, but we do
not care to follow the decline.
"Oats-The market lacks support.
There Is little scattered liquidation all
the time
"Provisions-The weakness in grains
brought out some liquidation yesterday,
but there was a good class of buying
on the breaks"

Hentz was the leading buyer to-day.

bales of July, which was said to be for
the Continent.
Mitchell and Wilson were big sellers.
Riordan bought.
Liverpool again refused to meet the

DROPS AS
LONGS L|QU|DATE
Lack of Resistive Power Encour-
ages Heavy Selling by Ring
and Spot Houses.

NEW YORK, Nov. 22.-Despite a fair
demand from houses with Southern con-
nections and all spinning interests, the
tone of the cotton market was barely
steady to-day and first prices were at a
net decline of to s points from Friday S
close.
The reaction was accompanied by re-
ports of unsettled and colder weather
over most of the belt over Sunday.
This, however, had little or no effect
on quotations,
The ring crowd sold on the first dip to
1890 for March, covered part of it on
the rally to 81 and then sold more on
the second dip and looked to be going
home short. lot of the Wall street
cotton brought in yesterday was put out
again to-day.
There was a general demand for
March at 1890 and May at 1885 that
checked the decline at those figures, de-
spite the efforts of the ring to smash it
through and there was about 10, 900 bales
of March wanted at 90 on the curb,
The principal feature of the market
was the liquidation by the commission
houses and selling by the South and
some o fthe larger spot houses There
was also said to be some selling by the
continent at the outset The little sup
week-e end shorts, who had sold at the
high level. The market lacked reslstive
power and the bears sold 1t with. conf
dence and around the close the list stood
60c to S1.00 bale lower.
Sentiment is extremely bearish and
conservative operators were of the opin-
ion that lower levels would be reached
Monday. What brought about this re-
versal of sentiment is the large ginning
figures of yesterday and the belief that
there is stil1 a scattered long interest
in the market. which will come out on
further declines and absence of support
from some of the larger spot interests
who have been for the past few months
identified with the bull side.
At the close the market was barely
steady. IL to 20 points lower than the
previous close.
