LESS RESISTANCE SHOWN BY COTTON Talk Concerning Acreage Has Effect on the
 Market

New Orleans, March 19.-Cotton had less resistance to selling pressure today, dis playing signs of becoming susceptible to beafish talk concerning acreage. Easiness in the spot department and claims by buy CTS that spot cotton was being offered mere literally, offset the large mill talk ings and the smaller movement into sight, which resulted in decrease in the vis- iblo supply for the first time this sea- son In the early trading prices were ? points over yesterdays close, but the mar ket gradually fell off until it stood to 6 points under yesterdays last figures. Tine close was at net loss for the ses- sion of i to points.
 Exports for the week were larger than expected, 256, 105 bales, and this, together with the mill takings of 331 00 bales for the week as compared with 274,00O this week last year, gave the market steady tone toward the close.
 Mrch bearish comment was caused by the shipping situation and the fear that Mediterranean ports would be closed to cotton, which it was claimed was affecting forward export business to serious ex- tent.

Hubbard Bros. & Co.'S Letter

New York; March 19.-(Special. )-To- days market ruled dull and very steady, with @ slightly lower close, and general idea that the publican of a large crop es- innate tomorrow morning will cause a further decline. The general idea is that after the rapid advances in Liverpool this week we will have period of dullness.
 There is no evidene of any pressure of spot cotton in the south, but the trade expect that what is left on hand may be for sale as we approach planting time.
