New York Aug 1.-Riordan & Co, say Of
cotton: a tendency towards lower prices in
Liverpool and some rains in Texas diScOurag-
ed buyers this morning and our market open
cd two or three points lower. the first sales of
January being at s28c Almost Immediately
there were symptoms of weakness and n fur
Their decline of about or points followed.
Then the market became steadier and for the
greater part Of the day January huCtuated
between S.2lc and S.23c, but in
the last hour the weakness
became much more pronounced A food of
selling orders came pouring in from the
south and prices broke sharply. January sell
ing Is points below the opening price. The
close was barely steady, with s13 bid for Jan
uary The break was caused by the gro wing
belief that the scarcity of money will compel
the marketing of the new crop as soon as IL
can be made ready, irrespective of the price.
We fear there is too much truth In this view
of the situation.
