MARKETS BY TELEGRAPH.
Cotton Letter.


New York, April Especial 1.-THE mar
ket opened today with the same listless feel
ing that marked the trading yesterday for
the first hour. Prices were at stand still.
Then the same commission house which
lately assumed for time the roll of bull
trade bought some heavy blocks of August,
which had been offered with little hope that
anybody would take them, and the market
at once became firmer and more animated
August, which had opened at I'll, advanced
ito ia, and the demand from this one house
supported values until the last half hour,
when the bidding suddenly ceased. Prices
at once began to give way and the market
closed at the lowest of the week, with 7.69
bid for August and the tone easy. With
the reopening of Liverpool tomorrow it is
expected that we shall have a more lively
speculation. The weather reports from the
south today were generally favorable.

shares ruled firm at S7244SSA, but as the

of this. specially had no influence on the

gains ON the day. In the early trading
speculation was. strong. much to the sur

free sellers of the market yesterday on the
