DAILY COTTON LETTER,
New Orleans. Nov. 23.—We nil know how
deceiving Saturday's market move* are. Is
the best day for operator! to get In a little
work, and on this line we may regard to
day’s. Liverpool In conjunction With the
bearish epistle In the morning papers by
the Wall street leafier. A week ago .things
I'Mtked ns gloomy ns the fancy news put in
Hreufatlon; yet on Monday cotton gained
<*bout $; a hale and n abort stampede fol
lowed during the week.
Future* In Liverpool are about 6 points
lower than fine: spot prices 7 points down;

American houses selling. Mr. I’rlcc, In his
fii ulnr 16 the public, tries to discredit the
' census report, and hla friends are
dng out wlth'Inrge crop estimates. All
« only tends to show that h small crop
_ .'"ared, tind that attempts to depress the
B trket are merely for the purpose of cover-
K before hurean day. Otherwise press
tb*n* was rather favorable.
The curreucy premium In New York went
back to 1% i»er cent. Prominent financiers
bcld a conference with the president by ap
pointment, and expressed themselves quite
confident about Improvement In- the finan
cial situation. Our market opened about G
Mins lower, hot recovered all the loss, and
nt the cod of tha first hour prices showed n
win of 6 points. The market Is no longer
‘jnite such a one-sided affair, and though
% no ball buying, bears do not trust
cat'll other, nnd selling by the one suits the
•Mire to rover by the other.
A later cable from Liverpool says: "Set
