COTTON-There has been no alteration of any
kind in the movement to-day and transactions
have been very light at yesterdays quota tons,
Offerings have been very restricted throughout
and sales have been confined to 1900 bales at pre-
vious figures, but with an evident tendency to
outside rates. The offerings are exceedingly light,
and the demand is steady at previous figures, viz
27329c for ordinary, 3O@3lc for good ordinary,
S5t@36c. for low midding, and 38G139o. for mid
ding, The principal demand, however, is IN the
better grades, while ordinary and good ordinary
are very much neglected.
