Furnished for Daily Herald Readers by Clark & Co. Liverpool advanced 4 points, which was-a full response to our market of yesterday. Sales were 12,000. Sales for the five days of the week have reached 84,000 baleB in Liver pool. . Reports of cuts In certain lines of dry gods were denied, and the’ market quoted firm at unchanged prices. In spite of the comparative high prices, spinners' takings up to date show 7,280,000 against 7,060,000 laBt year, when cotton was very cheap. The Insight for the week will be 100,000 hales short of last year. May will prove the critical month on the next crop, and If It should be a rainy month, all hope of a large yield must be abandoned. Hood, Fernle & Co. cabled: “We are uncompromisingly bullish on the general situation. The Manchester turnover continues the largest and most profitable ever known. We re gard 7d as a certainty,” The American markets opened 3 to 4 lower. There was not the slightest pressure on the market. NEW ORLEANS COTTON LETTER. (Bt Wire to Glark A Oo.l New Orleans, March 9.—One time during the session of the forenoon market It looked as though options would record a higher range of values than the two points advance over yes terday on the close, but cables were less favorable In tone and seemed to denote that spinners were temporarily supplied, sales today being only 12,000 bales In contrast with the large trans. actions done dally throughout the past week. Our own market was even quieter than on the previous day. In the early trading, futures were a few points off on the reported decreasing demand for spot cotton, while the continued ab sence of any outside interest in the market and the bearlshly inclined ele ment in the ringside likewise exerted unfavorabel impressions. The spot de mand seemed to increase as the day wore on, but either the spot people are short of the actual stuff, or they still persist In refusing to meet any de cline recorded In futures, for certainly according to the best information the offerings are dally becoming more un attractive. With the clearing away of the Moroccan dispute, which seems likely to come to- a peaceable consum mation, one objectionable feature, at least, so far as the trade is concerned, will have been done away wtjb, and the government report on the 20th Inst, of the total amount of cotton ginned for the season, silencing once and for all time any contentions that may still exist as to the actual size The census department will issue a gingers’ report on March 20, showing amount ginned up to March 16. It is conceded same will be under 10,400,- 000, and should prove a strong “bull card." From every section of the belt come cries of "scarcity of labor.” Brown & Hayne appear to be per fect "fiends” for July cotton. Cotton spinning has taken on new life in Russia since the revolution. This country promises to he a heavy buyer from this time on. “I regard present prices as discount ing a crop of 10,750,000, and believe every pound of a crop of this size will be needed to supply rapidly increas ing consumption."—C. D. Freeman. Some of the bear messages from Liverpool were "evidently ordered from New York.” Port receipts were 13,000 against 19,000 last year. Liverpool was steady at the close on advapce of 2 to 3 points. Something New In Life Insurance.
