New YORK, March S5 The sums cotton re-
view says: "A moderate decline on rather
small transactions is the story of the day. I4iv-
erpool is again anything but encouraging TO the
friends or cotton. 1t was apparently more in
different to the settlement Of the great strike
than it was yesterday, fact which, in the esti-
nation OF not few, gives additional color to
the theory that the spinners have provided for
their wants by purchase of futures, and do not
need to buy much spot cotton at the present
very large. The supply OF American
there is only 10000 bales smaller
than year ago in a season when the crop was
unprecedently larger Buying here to day was
mainly by shorts. Liverpool sent some buying
orders lt Is the opinion of many here that for
eign advices will sway the New York quotations
for some time to come. The market declined 5
TO points, closing steady, with sales of ln3,-
800 bales. Liverpool declined TO IL points aud
closed baEely steady with spot sales of 4O0O
bales. New Orleans declined to 8 points
Spot cotton here was very quiet, but with no
quotable change; middlng uplsnds 15.16c,;
there was decline OF lilo to 1sc at four south
ern markets. New Orleans sold 1850 bales. Ex-
