The Suns cotton review says: Futures
opened buoyant, became unsettled closing
steady at SOIL points advance from Wednes-
days closing prices. The m lrket to-day was
nearly q repetition of Wednesdays. The open
ing was quite buoyaut. Many bears were timid,
ana the sma receipts indicated for New Or
leans all though partially explained by the state
ment that the railroads there had not reported,
| brought in buyers to cover contracts There
were also not few bulls who took courage ami
oought Tor a rise. But when the March OPP
tlons touched 4Oc local operators began to sell
| to realize profits, and about half the advance
was quickly lost. Then the interior figures for
the week began to show up. They proved
| comparatively small and in particular they
did not indicate much further increase Of
| STOCKS partial recovery followed, and
closing prices were but little below the best
| figures OF the day. Spot cotton was firm but
| quiet"
