Influenced by strong cables, the cotton market opened barely steady today, with prices a net gam < if d to 11 points from Saturday’s close. Immediately after opening there was a general selling movement by the commission houses and the ring, with no support from the bulls, and prices made a quick decline aggregating 10 to 15 points irom t,ie opening within fifteen minutes. I he absorption was light and scattered, ‘■'pot interests were the principal buyers, but their aggressiveness was limited. During the late forenoon the market became active, with some of the bull lea<lers buying on the decline, which checkoil the heavy selling during the in itial trading, resulting in prices regaining a to b points of the early loss. The mar ; Let is an evening up affair over the holi day period, and it is not likely there will I oe , ?ny fluctuations of any consequence. ' Ihe next ginnings report is attracting a great deal ot attention at the moment and traders arp very cautious in their specu lating Very little spot news has been received today, which is said to be on account of so near Christmas. How ever, spot interests continue to follow the bullish position they have for the past I'*" months so strangely maintained. I hese interests for the past several days have been quiet, awaiting new develop ments and anticipate a more active mar ket, both in spots and futures. At the close the market was steady with prices a net gain of I to 8 point* from the linal quotations of Saturday.

HAYWARD & CLARK'S DAILY COTTON LETTER NEW ORLEANS, Dec. 23. Liverpool holds well, showing futures today 3 points better than due: spots 1 point lower; sales, 8,000 bales. The parity between the mar kets. which was getting so small as to interfere with bull operations on our side, is now improving and clearing the way for bull markets after the holidays. Our market opened 6 points higher on the good Liverpool but trading was flat and prices sbbh deCHned 12 points. The market has a holiday character, bulges attracting realizing, while undue depres sion is prevented by leading bull interests absorbing the selling whenever it be comes too damaging. No decided change in the character of the market is looked for unless it be that, the important peace meeting at London today should supply reason for aggressive action on one side or the other. Weather conditions over Sunday w r ere extremely bad. the entire belt being cov ered either by rain or snow. While the weather will clear in the western states, it will continue Dad east of the Missis sippi an<i the ginnings for the period are likely to be affected. The market after the first dip, on liqui dation of smaller outside accounts, ral lied in the second hour to 12.82 for March. New York reported Weld a strong buyer, also Mitchell and other bulls buying. RANGE IN NEW ORLEANS FUTURES.

May sold at 91 to 91 *4» and July at 88 to 88*\c. Liverpool prices were lower on continued fine weather in Argentine and large American shipments. The prospects abroad are f<»r continued heavy shipments from the United States and Canada. The market assumed a holiday appearance. World’s shipments were smaller than a week ago, but a little larger than a year ago. North western receipts were smaller than the ' previous week, while those at Winnipeg were a great deal smaller than a week ago. Corn was * M to *<<• lower. World’s shipments of corn were larger than ex pected. an<l exceeded the previous week as well as the corresponding period a year ago. Local were 428 cars. Oats were lower. Hogs at the yards were 6 to 10c higher and provisions were stronger in conse quence. 1 With a decrease of 94,000 bushels in the visible supply of wheat for the week, where an increase of at least 1.000,000 bushels was looked for. coupled with a > decrease of 382.00 bushels in Chicago stocks, helped the wheat situation no lit tle, as resting spots tor the day showed i December * 4 c better, May nearly 1 cent higher and July up %c. Local profes sional shorts led in the buying of wheat, while the selling was mainly by concerns I with profits. Corn closed * 8 to %c better, partially in sympathy with wheat and partially on the covering by shorts.
