/ New York, May 1.-THE Suns cotton re-
! view says: Disappointing Liverpool advices
! and local and southern selling caused a
| decline. There was a good deal of skcpticiSm
in regard to the government report. 1t is be-
! neVsd that the increase in the acreage is more
! than is per cent. ulhere was very little snap
TO the market to day, and little or no attention
| was paid to the news of the break in the Mis-
sissippi levee at Lakeport Ark. Prices
declined 10 to IL points and closed easy, with
! sales OF $4,000 bales Liverpool advanced =
to point, closing quiet and steady. with spot
| sales of 5000 bales. Manchester yarns were
dull, but good shtrtings were in demand. Bonn
bay receipts for the week were 10000 bales,
| against IS, 600 for the same week last year.
| Total thus far this year 900 bales against
| l,l0l for the same time last year: atiOat
IS 600, against 5000 a year ago. Bombay
shipments for the week to Great Britain were
1000 bales. against 1000 for the same week
| last year, and to the continent 30 900 against
| 27000 for the same week last year. Total
since Jan. l. $4,000 to Great Britain, against
4lUO during the same time last
| year, and $4,000 to the continent,
| against 472,O00 for the same period last year.
| New Orleans declined u points. Southern
| spot markets were generally quiet and steady.
| There was an advance &c at Charleston. New
! Orleans sold $500 bales The receipts at the
| ports were 1900, against $40 this day last
| week and 10000 last year. The exports from
| the ports were 600 to Great Britain. Spot
! cotton here was quiet and steady at 13-1Gc
| for middling uplands, with sales of 200 bales
| for export and 80 for spinning. The re
| ceiptS at three interior towns were 1917. against
387 this day last week and 19l last year.
New York, May ll.-Riordan & Co say on
! cotton: Liverpool today seemed to take of
| stock in the ridiculously small estimate Of
! the increased acreage given out by the agri-
! cultural bureau, and our bulls, many of whom
| had expected a substantial advance, FASTENED
| TO unload. Our opening was points lower,
| August selling at 7.77c The liquidation of
| long cotton caused q further depression of
or points. The decline was checked, how
ever by the news that break had occurred
| in the Mississippi leyees near Greenville.
| In fact, the apprehension of damag-
ing .overt1ows in the bottom lands
features which sustained the market to-day.
| Owing to this fear, prices continued dull, but
| steady, with August at 776G777c. during
| most of the day. In the last hour, however,
| the offerings became very free, and prices
| yielded, the close being easy at the lowest Of
the day, 772c. being bid for August. After
| the close August was freely offered at the
same figure. The present fine weather counts
| heavily in favor of the bears. Unless there
should be disastrous crevasses the chances
| would seem to favor gradual decline
