| New York, Mar, 5-RiOrdan & Co. say Of
cotton to day: a bad break in Liverpool to-
| day said to be caused by the decline in sill
| yer. discouraged holders this morning and led
to free selling which continued throughout
the day. May opened points lower at 7.52c,
and was soon offered at 750c. The
| tone was weak and upon receipt
| of disquieting news from Washington,
! in regard to the anticipation i'll there was a
further decline to 74sc. At that point there
| was heavy buying to cover by one Of the Ger
man houses, and May rallied to 7.4Sc, but in
| the last fifteen minutes the sellers again
| seemed to outnumber the buyers. The close
| was quiet and steady with 1850 bid for
| May. The outlook for a higher mar ct
| is not very encouraging this afternoon. The
! receipts are rather more than the bulls had
! bargalned for. and buyers seem utterly apa-
| thetio. The chances seem to be that We shall
| go lower. But cotton is already pretty low,
aud change in the temper of Liverpool
would pro ably cause quick and decided
| Improvement here
