New Orleans, April 4. — Liverpool news, as a general rule, was favorable and seemed to express little sympathy with the operations on the short side. Trade conditions were reported excel lent in Manchester, and spot sales in Liverpool showed a material Increase over yesterday’s business, 14,'000 bales at a loss of 1 point. Options were quiet, closing 1 point under the previous day’s' level. The strength of the local market on the opening and shortly thereafter was due to the support of the former bull lenders, which made shorts visibly nervous, and a further Improvement was noted by their covering. Weath er conditions recently can hardly be called Ideal and the prospects for more rain throughout the belt are almost sure to be realized, which caused In the later session a marked Improve ment In the market’s undertone, but as heretofore, was along narrow lines, with speculation chiefly confined to ringside traders. The statistical position has been considerably strengthened by the pub lication of. the seml-weeltly figures, showing a decline In receipts as com pared with the corresponding halt week last year of 39,000 bales, and a much higher ratio of shipments to re ceipts than In the Immediate preced ing seasons. This data foreshadows another favorable weekend visible statement, but whether this will have been discounted or not ere the time arrives, remains to be seen. The situation, nevertheless, scarce ly udmits of any wide divergence from present level® as long as the market lacks the Interest of tile public at large. GIBERT & CLAY.' If England continues to take cot ton at the present rate, we can safely expect a higher range of values. The best thing In the market Just now for the outsider Is to .play the fall months on weather conditions and allow, the Bull Bears and Bear Bulls to churn the summer months up and down on themselves. The rapid decrease In the visible supply Is being noted, and if same continues at present rate we shall be 1,500,000 less than last year by the time the new crop begins to move. These figures must prove very bullish on new crop positions. Of the 14,000 bales sold. In Liverpool today, 13,000 were American cotton. Egyptians and “the short stuff that grows In India” do not appear to be much In demand. Port receipts were 17,000 against 36,000 last year. “Of all the campaigns in which I have been interested, it is this one I feel most secure ' In.”—Theodore H. Price. ’TIs well for the hears that we have little speculation theBe days. Any buying Interest from the public would soon 'cause a singeing of bear hide” that could be smelled around the world.
