New York, Sept. H-Riordan & Co. S
review of the cotton market: THE spec
ulation In cotton during the week has been
marked by quick and nervous fluctuations
prices alternating between sudden de-
clines as the result of heavy liquidation
ana equally sudden recOveries caused by
very bad crop accounts. The reports of the
FINANCIAL Chronicle to-day were exceed
ingly discOuraging, but Liverpool sent US
a slight decline which was reflected in
somewhat lower range of prices at the
opening here. January opened at 8 Ice, adj
vanced to 8.1Sc, but the execution Of large
selling orders for local and southern ac-
counts proved too much for buyers to take
care of and the market steadily declined
to Sl0c for January. The close was steady
with January S11c bid. The opinions of
trade are inclined more decidedly of late
toward lower crOp estimates the bears
are thoroughly alarmed and there is very
little short selling. But for the absence of
any considerable short interest the rallies
would be far more sensational, as ii is,
the constant liquidation to take profits
holds the market in check. Whatever tenn
porary slumps in prices may occur we 10
not believe there is any likelihood of Sc
rious and permanent break on the con-
trary we think the tendency of the mar
ket viii be upward al least until the pc
ROD OF a dangerously early frost shall
nave been safely passed. We still believe
that purchases of cotton upon every drop
viii be advantageous too; but while the
market continues so sensitive and nervous
fits
New York, Sept. 1.-THE Suns cotton
article is as follows: Cotton declined to
points then rallied slightly and closed
steady at a net decline of to points
with sales of 97,700 bales Liverpool was
firm and unchanged on the spot with
1tilt'n u ptvvV DditSs futures QttllieQ t2ti &C.
New Orleans declined 9 points. New Or
leans expects on Monday 5000. possibly
GOO bales, against $50 last Mon
day, and S,Ss6 last year. Weather
at the south was clear and hot The
Chronicle says that advices from the
south indicate that In general cotton is
opening rapidly as a result of the hot and
comparatively dry weather that has pre-
vailed in most localities; that picking Is
therefore making good progress as a rule;
that unfavorable conditions have, it is
claimed, caused further detention in
some districts and that adVices from
Texas denotes that the plant is shedding
badly and that worms are prevalent. 1t
states that northern spinners have taken
thus far this season 1859 bales, against
1851 thus far last season. Came into
sight during the week 73,0S4 bales, against
lI2, 657 IN the same week last season; total
thus far this season 100, 357, against us, 84S
last season. To-day's features: There
was more disposition to go slow. There
was more disposition to wards the finan-
cial situation than TO embark in new ven
lures in cotton"
