New York. Oct 4-Riordan & Co say of
cotton; The market was dominated by the
| bulls today. Liverpool was hardly as favor
| able as had been expected yet our opening
| was at several points advance January sold
| on the call at 3Oc reacted to 8 26c, and then
! advanced without any material setback to
4Sc. The rise took place In the face OF
heavy selling to realize profits. In the last
| fifteen minutes, owing to these realizing
sales, prices yielded "a few points, but the
close was steady. with 44c bid for January.
We think the outlook for better prices has a
| more substantial basis now than at any time
! during the last six months. Crop accounts
are not satisfactory, and the demand for spot
cotton. both from abroad and from New
| England mills. was more active to-day than
| for a long time past, but the full receipts may
check an advance and even cause consider
| able reactions While we favor buying on
| every break we would advise our friends not
to be too sanguine, but to secure their profits
on every good rise
