New YORK, Feb. 90 The SUMS cotton report
| says: 'rhe Liverpool market was very erratic
| to-day. Its first movement was downward, out
| it suddenly wheeled around and advanced
| sharply, only to react again and close at u very
| trihing improvement for the day. New York
| fluctuations as usual Although in sympathy
| with the early decline prices here opened
| lower. Thereafter this market pursued a
| rather more independent course. 1t advanced
| easily, though encouraged somewhat by the
| rally in Liverpool, and it held most of its
ground IN spite OF the sub
English market. Receipts at ports were
larger and southern spot markets were lower
| Many private cables, however insist that the
| English strike is near its end. aud some re-
| ported that few of the mills were resumng
| work. Late cables from Liverpool reported
| an increase in spot business there. Speaker
| Crisp stated that no action would be taken on
| the Hatch bill at this session. This
| puts a final quietus on Hatch, and cotton
| trade rejoices. Prices opened lower but re-
| gained this, and advanced 1001l points, but
| closed firm, with sales Of 1922 500 bales Liver
| pool declined sos points, recovered this and
! advanced 11sQ219 points, but closed at anet
rise of only u point. Spot sales there were
