CoTToN-The sales to-day embraced $3.50
bses, ~ irregular and easier prices, a

middIing 2O3@2lic middliDg -(G22c; strict
middling 224@225, and good mlddling

The market opened with a fair inquiry,
but mostly at figures below the views OF
factors, and up 10 noon only limited
amount waa reported, while. though prices
were manitestly easier, they showed no
uuotable decline. Later ii the day, how
ever, parties came together more freely, and
the rates paid exhibited increased irregu-
larity; cow middling, for example, selling as
low as 2O3c and as high es q DC; striCt COM
| manding "a !c more. Still later the advan-
tase was more generally on the side of
buyers, and at the close purchases could
been made at our quotations, although
many factors asked more. Parties who
prediCatcd their view on the business up to
Two T. M. quoted s@ic higher. Clean
white cottonD, free OF sand, commanded
fuller prices III proportion than the general
run.
