Hubbard Price & Co.'S cotton circular says:
Both bulls aud bears seem to be making most
OF the present influences bearing upon cotton,
the bears using large crop estimates and the
oulis opposing them with continued good
trade. The market now awaits the determine
ton as to which of these two influences is
greater, and until that time the market will re-
main IN its present unsatisfactory condition"
