NEW ORLEANS COTTON LETTER
(By Wire tn Clark & Co.)
New Orlenns, Feb. 12.—The report
ed covering by Alexandrian Interests
In the Liverpool market was respon
sible for the better prices ruling on
the opening. The day’s session was
remarkably dull, In a measure due to
the closing of New York and the lack
of Interest generally fn evidence. On
the close, options showed a gain of
one point over yesterday, while the
spot market reported prices steady and
sales of 10,000 bales at an advance
of five points. There was no news
of note recorded during the day, lo
cally, and the market consequently re
mained uninteresting In the extreme.
Buyers and sellers Btlll differ so radi
cally In their views ns to a mean
trading basis, that it seems improba
ble that any large sales of spot cotton
can bo consummated, while prices re
main around the present levels. And
yet, on the other hand, It Is claimed by
not a few that, should any decided ad
vance become apparent, even the rath
er limited business now being done
would be abruptly checkod, If for no
other reason that by the factor placing
a prohibitory value upon his. holdings.
The fallacy of this latter statement
could be easily proved were It at all
certain that tho mill man has com
mitted himself by future contracts in
excess of Ills present holdings, but so
much uncertainty exists, and so many
conflicting reports are In circulation
as to the real position of the fabvlc
market, that It hardly seems possible
for the knot to bo unraveled except
through thp running course of time.
We know, or rather, we are told, that
tile prices ruling In some departments
of tho finished goods market show, not
only a steady one, hut likewise a ten
dency to advance, which being so, the
question arises would the spinner, (wo
assuming, of course, that an advance
Is under way) still remain In the mar
ket knowing that Ills purchases could
not hut profit him considerably owing
to the afore-noted excellent working
basis lie would still have to operate
upon? These are merely observations,
but ones that are agitating the trade

Brush in use. The brush is made of fine velvety India Rubber and is so perfectly
pliable as to easily fit every curve of the human figure. It can be instantly
attached to any water faucet, and but the turn of a faucet is needed to regulate
the temperature of the water to please the bather. The water flows out through
595 tiny pliable rubber tfeeth to the bather’s infinite delight and perfect satisfaction.
It is a happy invention, vastly superior to all other bathing devices, and is endorsed
