S.-iSpe-.IA-Liverpool cables this morning rcjiorted spot cotton there firm and In good lemand, wi’h alies of 8,009 bales at unchanged but harden ing prices, whllt the market for futurts opened arm at l-Wd advance, which wa3 subsequently Increased to 2*64, ; rices clos- in; firm at the advance. These advices plainly showed a full rtsponso to our ad- vanct of yesterday, and our market opened firm where It left off last night with buylers. After the call prices eold off 1 to 2 points on some small local killing, but rallied and advanced 5 points under the Influence of good buying for Liverpool. New Orleans and local ac- .... rknrn fnlllnrr off In thn counts prompted a sharp falling off In the movement of the crop, and Indication of still lighter receipts next week by the zero weather with snow and ain now prevailing throughout the South The buying was the stron-arest seen here for some time, but the disappointingly small bond 1fsu*% followed 4>y a sharp break in th stock market, furnished the bears with a pretext /or hammering the market. Their heavy ’reckless ft filing frightened some of th«f .timid bulls into withdraw ing their support, ani prices weakened under the pressure, losing al lof the early advance *flnd closing barely steady at yesterday’s Anal quotations The receipts nt tho ports. Including various Inland (owns, were 26.7S6 baPes. making the to tal for the week 146.211. against 188.835 last week. 100,439 last year, and 184,000 In 1892, while tho total amount brought ino^rplght was 182,777. against 17,<7*3 lpst year# and 231480 in 1S92. The agricultural bureau at Washington will Issue a very thorough and exhaustive report on cotton tomorrow relating to the proportion of the orop pi&rkettd and tho amount left In farmers' ’hands, etc. We believe It wfil show the crop has been picked e*tar and quicker and marketed more "apldly than evtr before, and that the amount left on the plantations will be shown to be much less than Is generally estimated.
