New York. Dec. 7-Riordan & Co. say
OF cotton to-day: Liquidation on both
sides has been the main feature of the
market this week The absence of specu-
ldtiVe demand induced many tired holders
10 sell out and the consequent recession
"a prices was taken advantage of by the
bears to lower their short engagements
4 slight decline in Liverpool this morn
ing caused a lower opening here, January
selllng on the call at S.11c. The market
was very dull during the two hours OF
trading but there seemed little disposition
70 sell, and prices hardened a few points
January closing at S.15c bid with the tone
steady. March, which has now taken the
pace OF January as the active trading
ihonlh, opened at S.22c, and closed at sec
eld, the foreign war cloud arising from the
turkish complication is just now the oniy
serious menace to the market. Bun until
nat snail have been in some way dispellcd
Liverpool will probably continue more or
less depressed and material recovery here
viii be delayed But although cotton may
"echne little further, we incline 10 the
opinion that there will be no important
'l-ik. and on any recession from present
prices, We would rather buy for a turn
nan sell The bulk OF the weakly margined
long cotton has been sold ont, and the
market is now in a position 10 respond
tickly 70 any clearing Of the political
skies abroad"
