New York, March 1.-Riordan & Co. say Of
cotton today: The market was very few
eTish and uncertain one. The decline in
Liverpool at the time OF our opening hal no
effect here, because receipts we're very light
May opened points higher than yesterdays
closing price, the first sale being at 76c
After that the fluctuations were frequent
within range of points; May declined to
7o9 and sold up to 767 but the bulk OF the
! fluctuations were between Z 90 and 765 The
close was firm. at the DeSt prices of the day,
..66. being bid for May. he feeling is very
mixed and uncertain. The bulls are again
gaining confidence, and are hopeful OF an ad-
vance, but there are many who seem to be-
lieve that the liquidation of May contracts
will occasion a tumble in prices that will throw
the decline OF last Monday into the shade.
We do not attach much weight to anybody S

trade for which everybody is hoping takes
place Meantime we expect a see-saw mar
ker and would rather sell uEol bulges and
buy upon breaks
