After the call the list displayed further steadiness on a little covering. Most of this was by room traders, who, while seeing no reason to change their bearish views, were disposed to reduce their lines In view of the coming holidays. The cotton market was quiet nt the open ing this morning, and about In Hue with the Liverpool market. During the morulng hours the trend was toward a lower level, though the early fluctuations covered a narrow range, the market being dull. After midday commission houses and shorts were moderate buyers, and with of ferings light, an advance occurred. New cotton Is still ou the increase, New Orleans getting 17S bales, Galveston 5,480, Mobile 6, Memphis 1, Houston 8,060 and Augusta 14L Estimates for tomorrow: 1906. 1905. Galveston 10,000 to 11,500 7,107 Houston 8,000 to 9.000 9,770 As a result of covering on the approach of the holidays, a sharp advance occurred In the afternoon trading, the close being near the high point of the day.

New Orleans, Aug. 30.—Cables were due about 2 up ou both American markets and therefore up to noon were about as ex- pitted. Spots continue In limited demand. Futures nre easy. The market Is not able to nboorh any amount or offerlnga. The bulla do not seem willing to furnlib the support necessary to bring about a mate- rial advance, although the shorts fenr ma nipulation In Liverpool over the holidays more than the longs do. At times It showed steadiness In rather • marked degree, but this was entirely due to covering by shorts, who were not desirous of carrying their commitments over the three holidays which follow the dosing of the market tomorrow.

Aug. 30.-The reactionists were again In evidence this morning In the face of a weak Liverpool, and prices were bid up right after the opening for about 7 points, but the weight of favorable crop reports wns too much for them.
