New YORK, March 2L-Hubbard, Price s.
Co. s cotton report says 1.-THE natural aud not
unlookedfor reaction has to-day tlke1 place in
both the Liverpool and New YORK markets. In
the former futures were 4-64d lower than yes
terday, closing barely steady at the decline.
Their loss in value had reached 10 points In
our market the decline does not appear to have
dlslodged any important line OF cotton, and
there is a marked difference in the aspect OF the
situation now aud two weeks ago when the
previous decline was in progress. Then 1t was
evident that the liquidation of some very i'm
portant lines of distressed cotton was immi-
nent. Now the bulls profess to view lower
prices with satisfaction, inasmuch as they are
enabled to buy that much more cheaply, and
1t is claimed that the market yields less readily
to the efforts Of those VINO have been active
and aggressive to-day in attempting TO estab-
lish lower ranges of values. During the after
noon the market was steady and point or two
easier No new features of Importance, how
ever have been developed, and the close was
quiet"
