WARE aTeLAND’S DAILY COTTON LETTER New orlenna. Ana.' 30 -Tmlni’a cotton market wo* * good «b*al of a holiday affair. At times It showed steadiness n rather a markitl degree, but this was entirely due to covering by shorts, who were not «l****rous of carrying their commitment* over the three holidays whleh follow the closing of the market tomorrow. Bulls were not si all aggressive except for n short Bme soon af* ter the opening, when they made a per* fectly opeu attempt to run In •b°rt«» Tjw ilse of the short Intereat In the market, however, did not admit of extenalve manip ulation. nnd the buying waa boom oyer. Liverpool was good ^ugh forsome «me previous to the opening of the loeal market, but fell off Just Ijeforc the opening here. Which caused Initial prices to snow a slight losa from the level of yesterday s closing. The weather map was all that could be de sired and the telegrams from country were less pessimistic than they ^jne been. tor- clgn exchange was unsettled and weak and then* were no new developments In the alt- nation to warrant an advance.

It la believed that It Is no 1 greater than In some of the best years on record. Meantime room traders hammered the marker, and If the bull leader gave any support Ita effect waa not clearly percepti ble. Whether the market ran still be aokl short with Impunity for any great length of time remains to lie seen. The universality of the bearish sentiment seems at the mo ment aliont the only thing on which n bull can count to bring about a rally. In other ■—*-ii a benr ami In an enr aide la very ant . overdone. A rally, however. In such condi tion* would probably prove to be ouly tern- IKtrary.
