Dec. 17.—The cotton mar ket opened Arm at an advance of Sal4 points in response to higher Liverpool cables and covering by scattering shorts for over the week-end, and In prepara tion, possibly, for the ginners* report ex pected early next week. Some of the larger professionals appeared to bo sell ing, however, on the theory that this report would make a bearish showing, and following the call, the market was more or leas Irregular. But the selling movement did not attract popular sup port, being restricted to some extent by the small receipts of the day and prices during the middle of the session were well up to the final figures. Trading os a whole whs quiet, and evening up for tho week-end seemed to be the chief trading motive. Receipts of cotton at the ports today were 8M00 bales against 55,540 bales last week and 54.784 bales last year. For tho week 300.000 bales against 326,305 bales last we«f{ and 401.511 bale* last year. To day’s receipts st New Orleans were 8.105 bales against 14.180 bales last year and at Houston 6,824 bales against 12,056 bales last year. The Port*. NEW YORK STOCK LETTER. NEW YORK, Dec.
