But there seemed to be no vitality in
the market and . prices were accord
ingly depressed. f
No encouragement seems probable
for a while yet, from the spot situa
tion, for buyers and sellers seem to
be as far apart as ever and the only
hope for the future as far as this
branch of the trade is concerned,
doubtless lies in a further widening of
prices between the local and foreign
market, »thus giving a more profitable
working basis for the exports. Even
though prices continue to show easi
ness there can be no doubt that the
temper of the trade generally shows
a marked improvement.
The attitude assumed seems to bear
evidence that, in a majority of opin
ions, the decline has well nigh run
its course, and should some new
strength develop, the presence of the
spinner in the market would be a
natural consequences, as he would no
longer pursue his hand-to-mouth pol
icy but become a more potent factor.

NEW ORLEAN8 COTTON LETTER
(Br Wire to Clark S Co.)
'Phone 17.
New Orleans, Jan. 31.—The Liver
pool market has shown on more than
one occasion the favorable view exist
ing there of present market conditions
and prior to the opening of the Amer
ican rings when through manipulation
prices became easier the foreign mar
ket not only meets all expectations
but in many cases exceeds the most
hopeful views entertained. Such has
been the course of the market there
this morning, while showing a due
advance of from 3 to 4 points, gradu
ally declined until the dose showed a
bard gain of one point over yesterday,
while the excellent spot business
clone, 15,000 bales, at one point de
cline, more than compensates for any
easiness displayed by the course of
options. Cables pointed to the good
demand for spots continuing and
rather expressed the opinion that
while spinners were large buyers,
they nevertheless had a goodly stock
on hand.
The selling power in evidence in the
local market today was due in all
probability not so much to any well-
defined liquidation as to the fact that
longs who had bought for a scalp had
become nervous and were trying to
get out. On n slight improvement no
ticed later in the day the same scalp
ing conditions prevailed this time In
the, nature of a support emanating
from those who argued that the mar
ket. had a good threshing out contin
ued Improvement, was but natural.
British spinners continue to do bus
iness at the same old stand. Liver
pool sold 15,000 bales today. Futures
were 4 better, just as due.

Early cables said: "We see no vea-
son for any further decline. Every
body is running on full time and mak
ing money.” Everybody happy.
The Liverpool ring is far more
friendly to cotton than our American
pits.
It looks strange that the market
should decline when foreign spinners
who can spin the stuff and make 25
per cent, are willing to pay the price.
/ It is said that Price just managed
to "skin out” on his big deal.
Our opening was dull at decline;
Hubbard and Wilson selling heavily.
If spot holders continue to sell we
will see some awful drops in this mar
ket.
It begins to-look as if the planters
will stand by the Asheville price of 11
cents instead of the New Orleans 15c
mark.
Director North has agreed to turn
all data on which the last ginners was
made over to a committee; of the
Southern Growers’ Association. We
will now know where the padding was
done.
Port receipts were 23,000 against
20,000 Inst. year.
Liverpool was dull but steady, clos
ing unchanged from yesterday.
