NEW YORK, March 2.-rhe Suns cotton re
view says. The advantage was with the bears
beyond question. Spot sales in Liverpool were
disappointingIy small and futures there were
little lower, but the advocates of higher prices
were discouraged bv the news reports in re-
gard 10 the Lancashire strike more than by
anything else. They have had idea that
the trouble would be settled at once
owing TO exhaustion of the operatives finances
aud now comes q report that other labor organ-
cations are extending monetary aid TO the cot
ton wo-kmen, and 1t is feared by some that the
end of the strike is by no means near at hand
that in fact it may be indefinite ly prolonged
IL is said that the men, although reduced to
very scanty allowance of everything needed
10 sustain life, are greatly encouraged
by the assistance received from
workmen in other trades and are disposed 10
continue the fight Selling by this country
carried prices down, and last figures were near
the lowest OF the day. Prices declined 6 to
points, recovered most of this. aud then re-
acted and closed barely steady at a net decline
of to points, with sales of 163, 800

ures, but advanced 1l-i6d on the spot, with
