New Orleans seemed to be rather bear-

connections were sellers of tho staple
here. The market was fairly active, but
there were periods of hesitancy in con-
sequenco of the holiday tomorrow* and i ,, ,
Monday. Tho demand enmo principally Dilip 1TIG V° ul COttiOn fttlCl get
from shorts, in that tho bulls gave very I r J*
little support. There was much con- I

Rather lest than tho usual annual

Industry Is of notably large volume
for this season of the year, especially
In Iron and steel and kindred lines of
manufacture. The cotton goods man
ufacturing trade, however, has been
again unsettled by tho slump In cotton

Ware A Leland’s Weekly Cotton Review.
NEW YORK, Dec. 30.—Two vears ago
nt this time cotton was nailing In New
Y«rk at 8 cents per pound. Had anyone
made the prediction then within a year
cotton would be selling at 17% cents and
within Ter-! tlrr* than a year after would
be selling gt 4% cents. It Is needless to

with 7% cents a week ago. That is u
— - In January of the year of 1904, cot
sold In New York at 17% cents and In
r Orleans at 18% cents and In Decern-
r of the same year sold at 4% cents,

though the holder of evenr hale was
