The SuR'S cotton review says: Cotton fu-
lures were little tirmer at the opening. August
selling at 10 99c. bay at 10 SIC, and October at
9 93c; but the market being closed at Liverpool
there was nothing to stimulate speculation and
values rece1ed SQ.10 points. After the last call
the selling movement was renewed said to be
under stop orders from Broad street, and ult-
mately most of Saturdays advance was lost
with the close somewhat settled"
