The New York Commercial Bulletin, of Sat-
urday, thus histories the weeks future
transactions: "The option market appears to
have developed one feature rather more
prominently during the past two or three
days, and that Is the very nleager boundaries
of the speculative incinatious. Especially
will this apply TO the 'bulls,' who, with the
advantage of the great increase in the move
ment OF spots and the frmuess abroad, failed
to score more than temporary advances of
few points, and then only on covering opera
lions. In fact, there seemed to be a very
tired feeling on the 'bull' side, with courage
apparently gradually ooZiDg out and no in
tention Of adding further to expenses The
bears were unwilling 10 press the position,
but felt confident that with speculation in
such an apathetic state, and the weather
steadily improving at the South, it was only
necessary TO wait patiently for a shrinkage
on values" The Chronicle, of the same date,
puts it this way: "There has been far
degree of activity to the. speculation in
cotton for future delivery during the
past week, and prices have had an upward
tendency. Crop accounts, though improving,
have not been good; the falling off in our
exports and in the visible supply of Ameri-
can cotton, and an active trade at Manches-
ter, have caused an improvement at Liver
pool, while the home demand for cotton at
this point has been brisk-all tending to pro-
mote an advance in futures. But the upward
tendency, which began on Saturday, culmin-
ated about noon on Tuesday, and from that
time down to the close of Thursday fluctuated
slightly, but frequently, the eff Jrts to pro-
mote further advance being checked BY the
generally excellent weather for the growing
crop. To-day (Fridsy) there was further
decline OF ACC points, owing to the good
weather, but the close was steady"
New Orleans spots began the week a. I2c
which had ruled the latter part of the week
previous, which ruled until Thursday, when
&c was added, and the week closed on l25c
The following are the quotations as ompared
with the close of the week before:
