New York, May lS.-Ihe sun cotton re-
view says: There were few features OF IN
tereSt In cotton speculation to-day. Inc
| bears were undoubtedly disappointed IN the
steady Liverpool advices, which they had ex-
! pected would report lower market owing to
/ the decline yesterday. Crop advlces, more
| over. were not altogether favorable. Cold
/ nights are still complained Of. New York
| ana southern operators for short account
| bought to some extent The signal service
! predicted fair and warmer weather, 1t Is now
generally clear IN the south ana no IuFlheF
| breaks in the Mississippi river are reported.
/ Prices are to points and closing 10
| points higher than yesterday and quiet but
! steady, with sales of $500 bales:
/ Liverpool closed steady. with spot sales Of
/ 10000 bales, In Manchester yarns were quiet
/ and unchanged. In cloth there was some
/ business at low prices. Bombay receipts for
| the week We're ii 900 bales against 10000 for
| the same week last year. Total sales since
| Jan. 1, .222 00O bales against llsl 900
during the same time last year. Ahoat
| 5000 bales against 10000 a year ago.
/ Bombay shipments to Great Britain thus
| far this year are $4,000, against 1900 bales
| during the same time last year, and to the
| continent SOP 600, against $4,000 bales during
| the same time last year. New Orleans ad-

! New York, May lS.-RfOrdan q Co say of
! cotton: Instead of declining as the bears
| had hoped and expected Liverpool was rather
! better to-day and our opening was points
| higher, August selling on the call at 759c but
| this proved the highest price of the day. In
| the first hour the bears were somewhat ag-
| gressive and August sold down to 1859 but
the fear that Liverpool might develop greater
! strength served as a check to short sales, and
! Tor the rest OF the day the market nuCJu-
| ated between 1860 and 7.59c for August, every
! advance OF point or two tempting sellers,
VINO seemed willing enough to take their
| profits on trifling decline. The close was
! quiet and steady, with 757c bid for August.
| The temper OF Liverpool will have great
| influence upon our market in the immediate
| future, but meantime every week that passes
| without any very had tidings from the cotton
| belt Is distinct gain for the bears, for whom
no news at all at this time of year is good
