OF cotton to-day: THE cotton market on
Christmas eve. is usually duh, and to-day
was no exception to. the rule, but the
war scare seemed to have subsidized. Liv-
erpool improved and the light trading of
the day was marked by an undertone of
confidence. which had been conspicuous
~ absent for week past. March opened
at cents, declined to 1870, advanced to
6.Uoc and then reacted, closing at S.O260
6.O3c, with the tone quiet and steady. The
weak feature was liberal receipts. If
these should continue for fortnight long
er upon similar scale ii might be difficult
10 sustain prices, but the bulls insist that
ne increased receipts are simply due to
the money requirements of Christmas
ume, and that in January we shall see
pronounced falling off. We are inclined
TO think that they may be right, and in
mat case, a higher and stronger market
Is almost a certainty.
