NEW ORLEAN8 COTTON LETTER.
By wire to Clark & Co.
New Orleans, La., May 9.
Liverpool was very quiet today, not
even the unfavorable crop reports In
fusing any enthusiasm In the foreign
market. On the close options were 2
points higher than yesterday, while
the spot situation was similarly unin
teresting, sales amounting to 8,000
bales at a loss of 1 point.
The bull leader continues to spread
his doctrine broadcast throughout the
land, and the hitherto mystical silence
concerning his reasons for an extra
ordinary rise In values of the price of
cotton were today broken by his an
nouncement of three causes for the
fulfillment of his prophecy, none of
which disclosed new facts or theories,
which have not heretofore received se
rious consideration from all Interested
In the staple and Its value.
Nevertheless, the knowledge of his
presence Is causing considerable tem
erity on the part of bears and no serl
ous attempt, no matter how strong
their convictions may be, has been'
made of late to force the price of cot
ton down. For the adherents to the
short side know fjull well the power of
manipulation, especially when It finds
a powerful ally In the speculative pub
lic. Yours truly,
GIBBRT & CLAY.

In n wire Price gives three reasons
why we should have an extraordinary
market: First, the practical exhaus
tion of supplies at the end of this sea
son; second, the certainty that at least
12,000,000 bales will he required next
year, and lastly that considerable
j doubt exists as to whether next year’s
crop will he larger, If as large, as the
' crop just marketed.
On contracts Liverpool responded to
our advance of yesterday, but spot
sales of only 8,000 at 1 point decline
did not add to the galty of nations.
Early cables denoted a steadiness
quite remarkable In the face of such
flattering crop accounts.
Our opening was steady at un.
changed prices.
Buying by the Price clique sent De
cember up 3 points soon after the
opening.
The 60,000 bales taken up by Price
on May Is now being retailed out by
that worthy at a handsome profit.

The price paid for the staple has not
been made public, but an officer of
