Fenner & Beane’s Cotton Letter.
New Orlenns, Slay 17.—Cotton
started the week easy on good weath
er over Sunday. Pressure from sell
ing or liquidation, however, was not
heavy and prices declined only a
few points. The Atlantic states
had needed showers while it was dry
in the valley and western states
where such wedther is badly needed. j
Temperatures were unseasonably low
everywhere. Reports of rains at
San Antonio and Eagle Pass, Texas,
received during the day tended to
strengthen belief in sueh a possibility
and steadied the market after the
first hour. Sentiment is largely bear
ish on be.ief that weather has changed
for the better and prices are likely
to sag as long as it continues good.
