NEW ORLEANS COTTON.

New Orleans, Jan. 22.-Poor cables caused a decline of f to 6 points )n the opening of the cotton market. The tone was steady and offerings were fairly well received, although traders with bullish inclnations were not disposed to operate heavily because of the fear that the census bureau report on ginning tomorrow morning might be rather full.
 Selling continued after the call and the market gradually fell off, stand ing at the lowest in the early trading at a decline of points. The busi- ness done was criefly from the pro- fessional element.
 At level points down the mar ket felt the effect of the large spot sales in the Liverpool market and the lowering of the Bank of England rate. a reduction which the cotton trade has been hoping for during a considerable length of time.
 While no show of strength was made at any time during the morn ing session, the tone became very steady and buying orders had an i'm mediate influence At noon the more active months were to 6 points un- der the last quotations of yesterday.
