NEW YoaK, March 1s.-The Slsn's cotton re-
view says: Trading was confined 20 quite
moderate limits and fluctuations were not
great Bears were surprised at the bullish Liv-
erpool news to-day, and so for that matter
we're the bulls. This, together with the recent
etiuX of cotton to the continent caused q slight
advance at first; but it was local market and
good many spectators here preferred TO set
tie up their trades either side Of the account
on Saturday for fear what may possibly
take place on Sunday, otherwise
there was enough selling to give the
market setback aud quotations were slightly
below the final figures of yesterday The
kernel OF the whole situation is the English
strike. and nothing new was known IN regard
