! New York, Fec. 27.-Riordan & Co. say of
! cotton to-day: The market opened today
with feeling among traders rather
| nervous ald unsettled. Liverpool was
| higher, bat the recovery there was hardly
| enough to make the bulls feel thoroughly
| comfortable. The port receipts, however,
| promised to he light and first prices we're
ing on the call at 751c. but buyers found no
| body anxious to take their purchases OF their
! hands, and prices soon began to weaken,
! May declining under liberal offer
| lngs to 745c. A little later. May
| rallied 10 7.50c, but some talk that
| 10 morrow being the last day of the month
the New Orleans receipts might he expected
| 10 &c heavy, LED to free selling and May again
| sold down to 7.i3c. When the estimate of New
| Nrieans receipts to morrow was announced u
! be only ABOUT 900 bales about one-third of
! what many hears were predlc ling, a quick
| rally took and prices stifened until the close,
| which was firm with 1880 Did for May. uAfter
| the close 7.5ic was freely bid. 1t Is undo BIT
! edly the fact that there is marked a5ssnce
! OF that lmpetuouS Dul.iSh feeling and desire
! to buy that has so often started
| big advances in the past There is no
! lack Of traders who have bought at much
higher prices, and who tell US with greater
| vehemence that cotton ought to go up but
| their evident disposition to urge others to do
| the buying. rather than to buy more them
| selves, shows that their faith in higher prices
| is not OF the kind that is said TO move noun
| talns. On the other hand, the general belief
| that the market is now pretty well rid of it's
| load Of weak long cotton makes the bears
cautious about Selling short. We rather OK
! pect q see saw narlet To- the next few days
but with the daily LIMITATIONS around a lower
level than previous to the zig decline"
