New York March 22.-Riordan & Co. say OF
cotton. The market closes today for the
Easter holiday with the same lack Of ANNA
ton that has teen It's main characteristic for
weeks Liverpool sent US a decline in re
Spouse to our advance of yesterday and
though the port and interior receipts were
very light. May again fell below SOC. After
the cali there was a feeble rally in which
May rose to 7.52c, hut the offerings we're
larger than anybody cared to take and
a reaction took place, May declining
TO 7.4Sc. During the aft rnoon hours
there was no change in the
market and the close was quiet and steady
with T.4Sc bid fO- May. There seemed no en-
couragement to buy, and traders are always
aVcrse to selling on tile eve of a holiday. The
outside orders being few, the result was day
OF great duliness. General trade Is reported
a trihe e.tCr, and it looks at last as If the re
cepts may become very small But the
threatened passage Of the Hatch bill, and the
fear that the south is going to plant a bigger
crop. disCourages buying and bar the way TO
any material advance The exchange remains
closed until Monday and the Liverpool mar
ket until Wednesday next
