11. & B. Beer’* Cotton Letter.
New Orleans, March 11.—The decline
In the American markets Saturday in
consequence of Mr. Neill’s circular being
generally discredited, influenced Liver
pool unfavorably and was accelerated by
large offerings of spots from this coun
try. Our market responded by opening
2 to 3 points low’er, declined 9 to 13 ad
ditional on the large port and interior
receipts, the weakness of spots and the
decline in print cloths. Shorts covering
heavily was the only sustaining feature,
causing a slight rally' near the close,
making the net loss on the day 12 to 13
points on this years’ positions and 7 to 8
on next. Port receipts for the three
days are 4,000 in excess of last week,
and 9,000 over last year. The interior
movement during the same time at the
four principal towns shows a gain, of 6,-
000 over last year, and 'the loss in stock
is only 4,000, against a deficit of 12,000
last year. Holders are very nervous and
anxious to sell, as all indications point
to the crop having been under-estimated
and consumption over-estimated and evi
dences by the reduced takings by spin
ners and the unsatisfactory textile trade
conditions prevalent throughout the
world. With the short interest being re
duced on all easy periods and no outside
speculation, it looks as If values will
gradually’ seek a lower level.
Hubbard llriiM. A- (',■# Colton letter.
New York, March 11.—With lower ad
vices from Liverpool, we opened very
steady at about the closing prices to
slowly break away under outside liquida
tion and the estimates of the receipts
until the lowest prices of the decline
were reached. Liverpool closed weak on
larger Southern offerings, and a disap
pointment that Mr. Neill’s circular did
not attract new investment demand.
Probably the decline in the price of print
clocks at Fall River, because of Southern
competition at lower rates, had as much
to do with the absence of any outside
demand as the heavier movement. At
the decline, the local traders covered
freely, not liking to follow the decline
further, notwithstanding the estimates.
They acted on the theory that a reac
tion was again due.
Murpliy A Co’s Cotton Letter.
New York, March 11.—Cotton in Liver
pol declined l-32d on spots; middling,
5 l-32d; sales?, 12,000. Futures about 4-64d
lower when our market opened unchanged
to two points lower, but large receipts
at ports estimated to-day 30,000, against
25,000 last week, and coupled with or
ders to sell from the South and limited
buying for European account started
local selling and this market declined
about ten points during the forenoon.
Liverpol fruther declined 2-64d on near
positions and closed weak from f> to -64d
below Saturday’s prices* After the noon
call a further decline of five to seven
points W'as recorded. May selling at 8.35 c,
August, 8.19 c, which were the lowest
prices since the decline started. A re
covery of four to six points took place
on the close, due to buying by locals
and some shorts covering. Estimated port
receipts to-day, 32,000, against 25,000 last
year. New Orleans expects to-morrow,
7.000 to 8,009, against 4,069; Houston 8,300
to 9,500, against 3,047.

STOCKS AND BONDS.
Market Rises, lint Hearts I to 2
Points With Closing Easy.
New Y'ork, March 11.—To-day's stock
market was a dull one, in spite of the
largo’transactions and wide price move
ments In some Individual stocks. The in
ertia t of the general market in spite of
these points of activity gave the whole a
very spotty appearance. Professional op
erations were obviously responsible lit a
large degree for such dealings as occurred
and for the manipulation which exagger
ated the price movement.
Where professional manipulation was
not at work, to-day’s movement will be
seen to have been very sluggish and not
a few small losses are scored, even among
stocks which are usually prominent in
the market. The interruption of ' tele
graphic communication on account of the
storm curtailed activity to some extent.
Of the day's special movements that in
Burlington attracted most attention. St.
Paul sold ex-rlght this morning, the
rights being quoted at 4’As to IV reducing
the price to 150 or under. This gave the
supporters of the Burlington an opportu
nity to lift that stock over St. Paul to
151%, A rise over Suturday of 2>. The
movement seemed to be. based purely on
the consideration that Burlington has had
Its rights to subscribe to new stock,
while the dividend rate is already 6 per
cent, with a'6 per cent, rate fer Bt. Paul
still to be established. There was no news
regarding the stock beyond the old ru
mors of refunding.
The coal-carrying roads were strong
with a few exceptions, where an advance
has already been made. Both the, anthra
cite aaid the bituminous coal groups shared
in the movement. Speculators profess
confidence that the labor questions will
be satisfactorily adjusted. The gain reach
ed 3% In Lackawanna and 3 in Delaware
and Hudson. There was a movement
among the Gould Southwesterns, led by
Missouri Pacific with an advance of 3
points. The Wabash securities were all
In large demand also. The only explana
tion which traders found for the move
ment was the belief in an early interest
payment on the debenture B bonds. There
was an early decline of over u point in
Sugar on account of the cut in the price
of refined sugar. The stock rallied to well
over Saturday, but closed the day un
changed. Great Northern preferred was
marked up 6 points in connection with the
presence in this city of the president and
rumors that a melon is to be out. Amal
gamated Copper was strong. There wore
gains of from 2to 3la in Chicago and Al
ton, Fort Worth and Rio Grande, and
American lee preferred. *
The dismissal of the injunction
against the absorption of the
Guggenheim interest by the Ameri
can Smelting Company caused a rise in'
those stocks of 314 for the common and 2
for the. preferred. The realizing move
ment in the last hour cut down all these
advances to some extent, and in the act
ive stocks reactions ran from 1 to 2 points
with the closing easy.
There was no disturbance In the money
market, but the weak showing made by
the banks in Saturday’s statement an<
some large dividend requirements to be
met this week causes an apprehnslon that
there will be some calling of loans before
the end of the week. Some discussion was
heard on the state of affairs developed, in
Manchuria, but more by reason of its In
fluence in foreign markets than for any
direct effect produced here.
There was a very large absorption ol
bonds, especially of the low grade and
and semi-specuiatlve Issues with con
tingent Interest payment. Total sales, par
value, $5,855,1)00. United States 2s, refund
ing, advanced 14 and the new 4s declined
14 on the last cail.

New Y'ork, March 11,—Consolidated Gas,

Murphy A Co’s Stock Letter.
New Y'ork, March 11.—The stock market
practically ignored the declines which ap
peared in the London quotations for
Americans this morning, and opened act
ive, and for the most part exceedingly
strong. Erie first preferred and South
ern common and preferred were notably
strong. The advance In Erie was to
some extent a reflection of the exceptional
strength that stock displayed in the Lon
don market. The bituminous coal slocks
were again strong, particulary fdr the
Hocking Y’alley issue. Among the lower
priced stocks Texas and Pacific and Chi
cago and Great Western were actively
dealt in. The granger stocks were all
firm and fairly active. St. Pul was
quoted this morning ex-rlghts to sub
scribe to the new stock, and it advanced
from the consequent low opening. The In
dustrial quarter, with the exception of
Sugar, was neglected, and the fluctuations
in thut stock continued as wide and er
ratic as they were throughout last week
Among the specialties. Amalgamated
Copper scored another marked advance
in the early dealings, and Consolidated
Gas waa firm. As noted Ix>ndon sent in
a lower range of prices for our stocks,
but traded on both sides of the local mar
ket. While the possibility of more active
money market conditions this week was
the main subject of discussion, there was
not any resultant pressure of the stocks
for sale, and with the course of the morn
ing, the market developed more general
strength and animation.
