New York, May l6.-Riordan & Co. say
ot cotton to-day: 1.-The Liverpool .ad-
ance to-day was an unpleasant surprise
70 the bears. Opening prices here were
e points higher than yesterdays closing.
aQgust sold on the call at 6.T0c, and after
#nuctuating most of the day within Il
Iange OF only 2 points advanced in the
Isl hour TO 6.75c, closing a about the
DDest OF the day with the the tone firm.
" ne crop accounts are far from satisfac
#lory, While the general business outlook
IL hlghly encouraging. The conviction is
growing stronger here that cotton NAV
nave material advance at any time ana
NAT the risk of any serious decline is
cry sight We advise purchases when
80 the market shows weakness.
