NEW ORLEAN8 COTTON LETTER.
(Bj Wire to Olork & Co.)
Buy them separately—mix together, and you
have Paint Perfection, ready to apply.
|New Orleans, Feb. 8.—The surpris
ingly good showing made by the 1 Liv
erpool market on the opening today
more than proved the willingness of
the foreign trade to respond liberally
to any strength displayed on this side
of the Atlantic. While sales were
some 10,000 hales at a healthy increase
In prices, cables were of the opinion
that spinners would buy more freely
at present levels and larger sales are
consequently looked for In the near fu
ture. In the local market futures
opened a little higher, reflecting the
bettered trend of the trade as express
ed In cables. But, lacking the looked
for continuous support of yesterday’s
spot situation, tho market showed ev
idence of becoming heavy and room
traders, taking advantage of condi
tions, somewhat depressed prices.
Fluctuations, however, were narrow,
and interest in affairs of the moment
was distinctly on the wane, doubtless
emanating from the lethargic state in
to which spots have lapsed, after the
standard of excellence set by this arm
of the trade yesterday.
The dearth of today’s news In the
raw material market was in a man
ner offset by the reported strength
from New England in cotton goods, or
more especially the print market as
denoted by a sale consummated at %
of a cent Increase over any previous
price. The market’s continued apathy
to news items that in normal times
would be construed In the light of
great, favorable news but shows that
outside support for the time being is
non-existent and that to be shaken o\it
of the well-worn rut into which it
has worked itself, interest of a most
profound type must arise before any
thing like activity is again to be
noted. And so it all narrows itself
down to the fact that scalping condi
tions have and will prevail, and that
speculators must be governed ac
cordingly, willing to accept moderate
profits. GIBERT & CLAY.
