CUTHBTSRT’S COTTON LETTER.
New York, March 23.—Special.)—Cotton
ruled feverish and Irregular today. Prices
opened 4 to 6 points lower, owing to
to weaker Liverpool advices than expect
ed, cables reporting spot cotton there
freely'offered at l-32d decline, with sales
of only 8,000 bales, and futures easy and
3-64d below yesterday’s closing prices, but
rallied later on good support by the bull
sllque here and in New Orleans, closing
steady at a net advance of 2 points. The
total sales were 93,700 bales. According
to the Chronicle’s figures the amount of
cotton "brought info sight during the week
aggregated upward of 148,000 bales, against
58,000 bales last year, making the total
so far for the season about 8,750,000 bales,
against 1,250,000 last year and exports of
5,56ft,000 hales, against 4,33,060 last year.
After the close the majority of
the operators united in saying
that the advance from the open
ing figures was due entirely to manipula
tion and that the “Course ot tne market
Monday would depend entirely upon the
action of Liverpool. The receipts at New
Orleans on Monday are estimated *»t 7.000
bales, possibly 9,000, against 12.600 last
week and 4,760 last year.

The bansa now bold in excess of tho

The Financier, reviewing the bank
statement, says the excess reserve Is the
lowest for two years The statement, If it
reflected actual and legitimate changes in
the conditions of the New York banks,
might be regarded as unfavorable, but as
the matter stands, it is simply Impossible
to determine how the various totals were
brought to show the heavy decrease
noted. Tho only pkiin feature of the case
is that money Is going out of the New
York banks or has been ordered out by
checks which have not been put through
for collection. In two weeks the New
York banks have reported a loss of $13,-
$72,800 in cash, of which $11,269,200 was le
gal tenders and $2,10&,600 specie. The des
tination of this money Is a mystery. It
did not go Into the treasury, vis ih« rec
ords of the fourteen days show. In fact,
the treasury gold holdings have decreased
in the last week between $3,(1)0,000 and
$4,080,000, exclusive cf nr. Increase of *2.-
300,000 In goM certificates. The only ex
planation Is that the cash has been trans
ferred to places wheie it can be locked
up to await the pleasure of the bond syn
dicate, the members of which have no
doubt withdrawn the money as they have
received payment for their bonds. Nor
has it gone to the Interior. Bankers re
gard this as a cheering sign of better
business. The price of loans to depositors
is now 96.92 per cent., as against M.83 per
cent on# year ago.

TffR SUN’S COTTON REVIEW.
New York, March 23.—The Sun’s cotton
review says:
Cotton declined 3 to 5 points, but got It
back and advanced 1 to 3 points, closing
very steady with sales of 93,700 bales.
Liverpool declined l-32d on the spot, with
sales of 8,000 bales, and futures declined 3
points. New Orleans declined 1 to 2 points,
but recovered this and advanced 3 to 4
points. New Orleans is being closely
watched. At* one time today it was 2
points above New York. Southern brown
cotton goods have advanced during the
past week. Fall River advices are strong
er. The receipts at the ports during the
coming week are estimated at 106.000 to
ItO.OOO bales. Silver advanced 1-16 of a
cent In London. Spot cotton here was
unchanged, with sales of S3 for spinning.
The port receipts today were 16,419 bales,
against 12,772 this day last week and 7,833
last year. New Orleans on Monday ex
pects 7.000 to 9,000 biles, against 12.640 last
Monday and 3,239 last year. The South
ern spot markets were quiet or dull. The
New Y ork warehouse stock Is now 180.000
bales, against 242.000. 273,000, 388,000. 127,000
and 118,000 In the previous five years.
Today’s Features.—Quite a number of
bears of late have had the Idea that the
market was getting ’Hoppy,” but a good
many of them were undeceived today,
and they covered their abort*. There
was more or less selling for Liverpool,
but on the whoi® ihw«- was mere pres
sure to buy than to'sell. The continent
bought and so did many local operators,
for both sides of the account. Many op
erators have been waiting for n good
break to get In again on the long side;
In fact so many have been watlng that
this very fact prevented any decided de
cline even today, when Liverpool was
considerably lower and the receipts at
the ports and the Interior towna were
largo enough to excite some comment.
But spring work" at the Bouth Is back

The bulls were talking of much higher
prices aa probable In the not very dis
tant future. A good deal depend! upon
the course of the Liverpool market: how
ever. the bulls here believe that they
have eaught tie Manchester spinners
with very small stocks of raw cotton on

CHICAGO GRAIN.
Chicago, March 23.-The recovery which
was due In wheat took piece today. It
occasioned no surprise, considering the
persistent short selling of the week, con.
tlnuous decline from M to 54 cents for
May. It was to be expected that the
wheat which had been put out Wednee-
6xy In proerse of covering would bring
about a rally and- the expectation! met
with no disappointment. No extraordi
nary or Influential trading was noticea
ble. but the aggregate oi scattered or
der* was of fslr proportion. May wheat
opened at 54*4. advanced to 5544 and
cloned at 60(4 bid—(4 of a cent higher than
yeaterday. Trading In car lots Was at un'
changed prices.
Snorts covered corn because shorts In
wheat were doing so. The situation pre
sented no particular change and only a
small share of the business came from
the outside. May corn opened from 40(4
