DAILY COTTON LETTER

NEW ORLEANS, Feb. 2S.-Liverpooi
cables from Manchester reports better
than expected and shows a very steady
market, with futres points better than
due; spot prices point lower; sales 5000
bales.
The bullish developments with March
tenders in our markets, the strength OF
spots and the many bullish features
shown by the weekly statistics yester-
day evidently did not escape attention
abroad.
Port receipts to-day are larger on &C
count OF some end-of -the-month add
tons.
our market advanced a little at the
start with the feeling in favor OF fur
Their Improvement on the strength of
the spot situation, but New York weak
ened suddenly, giving as a reason ap-
prehension over unfavorable legislation
In Washington. 1t seemed a poor JUS
tiflcation to further increase the dis
count OF futures under spot prices, but
the action shows that bearish intentions
still predominant In that market.
Spot buyers report he local spot mar
ket steady.
with politics claimed by the bear
forces as a new factor against the
market and admittedly checking support,
the action of spot holders Is doubly i'm.
portant next week. Unless spots give
way, any depression in futures should
only be temporarily possible.

BEARS IN COTTON
RENEW ATTACK
Little Contracts Wanted Until
May Struck 11.85-Feeling
Bearish-Big Acreage Talk.

NEW YORK, Feb. 2s.--With the first
March notices out of the way, the cot
ton market at the opening to-day gave
every evidence of having again settled
into its recent state of inactivity. Prices
on the call were 4 to points higher
than last nights close. This, however,
was only half hearted response to the
improvement abroad.
New Orleans and some OF the local
crowd were among the leading sellers
at the outset and the market found
only few contracts wanted until May
struck 11.S5. where sufficient num-
Der of limited orders were reached 70
hold prices. Local traders sold, but did
not care to hammer. as Liverpool is not
likely to come as low as due Monday.
Liverpool surprised the bears by ad-
vancing sharply when 1t was due L, open
lower. This development checked liqui-
dalton to some extent, but failed to start
bull movement There was fair
amount Of buying Just before the close,
attributed to shorts who usually even
up their lines over Sunday.
Sentiment around the ring is becom-
ing rather bearish. owing to the contin-
ued apathy on the part OF the public
and prospects for large acreage, Some
estimates reach as high as 100000. In
addition to this, the reporting of the
Smith bin in the Senate, regulating flu
lures, may have had some influence on
sentiment which caused lower prices,
but II Is not regarded seriously. as y
does not mean, according to well-posted
members, that specified grades must be
named in trading in futures across the
ring.
At the close the market was steady,
with prices 1 to points lower than the
final quotations Of Friday.

BY CHARLES w. STORM.

NEW YORK. Feb. 2S.-Apparent les
SEEMING of the tension in the Mexican
situation and the fact that there was
nothing in the news which had an un-
settling effect, left the bear element
without any incentive for resumption
OF their operations at the opening or
the stock market to-day.
AS a result moderate demand Tor
stocks was sufficient to cause advances
in many issues. The current report that
the Guggenheim Exploration dividend to
be declared Monday will be S7hc, or at
the rate of IA per cent a year. caused
an advance of Is in the price of that
stock to 53lh.
General Motors opened 1k higher and
fractional advances were made In
American Ice Securities, Central Leath-
er and Colorado Fuel.
United States Steel common was In
brisk demand mad gained y, The same
amount OF gain was recorded In Read
ing and Union Pacific. The Rock Is
land issues and New Haven were com,
paratively heavy, selling at fractional
concessions. Third Avenue was the
most active Of the fractions, advanc-
ing Is.
The curb was steady.
Americans in London were quiet.
The market closed steady. Govern
ments unchanged; other bonds steady.

M. Wightman, of Fallon, were in
Reno today and they stated that ar
rangements of financial nature
could doubtless be made for reopening
the factory provided a sufficient acre
age of beets could be contracted for.
A committee is now at work in
Churchill county interviewing farmers
relative to contract for acreage. They
will also visit other parts of the state.
If the acreage secured will Justify
operations, the mill win be run next
season. as the demand for sugar is ex-
peeted to be large and the supply
lighter than for years.
The Fallon men suggested that all
Reno users of sugar be urged to
specify the Nevada brand when max
ing purchases, as the price is no great
err, the quality equal and the advan-
tage to the state considerable through
working up local demand.

were included. Please make necessary
corrections.
