New York, FEB. l6.-Riordan q Co, say OF
cotton to-day: 1t seems impossible
to move the market in either direction
Speculation in Liverpool is as stagnant as in
New York. There is plenty of incentive for
people to buy, but they are afraid TO take
hold. The movement to-day was small as
the most sanguine Of the bulls expected, but
the feeling prevails that there is a vast
amount OF long cotton to he sold out on any
moderate advance, and this checks the en-
thusiasm Of those, who under other circum-
stances would be confidently working to lift
prices. To day May opened point lower, at
1906, advanced TO Use, quickly reacted TO
7.79c, and then rallied closing steady at 7S9c
bid. The traders are all willing for some
thing to turn up
