| New York. Nov. 20.-Riordan & Co. say
of cotton to-day: 1.-The volume of the port
and interior receipts to-day was simply
appalling. January was depressed almost
| as Low as it was yesterday, but recovered
at the close. January opened at I.1Sc
! advanced to 754c, declined to 7.45c, but
rallied in the later trading and closed at
| 1921. 53c, with the tone steady. 1t now
looks as If there is a great deal more
! cotton in the south than we had expect
| ed. Under the circumstances the power
of resistance shown by the market to-day
was indeed surprising. 1t proves that If
| there should be any marked drop in the
receipts, a quick recovery would be GER
tain to follow but there are no signs as
yet of any falling off, and If next week
should equal the present one in the cotton
| movement, it is not likely that present
prices can be sustained.
New York, Nov. 20.-The Sun says Of
cotton: Futures closed unchanged to 2
points lower, excepting November and De-
cember which advanced and ] point re-
spectively. The total sales were l7s,@O
bales. The market to-day was feverish,
and the fluctuations were frequent. At
the opening, prices declined on local SELL
ing, due to disappointing Liverpool adj
vices. The loss was soon recovered, how
ever and a slight advance followed on
covering of shorts, and some new buying,
but prices soon weakened again, and de-
clined. The crop movement for the week,
both at the ports and the IN
terror towns, show large In
crease of last weeks movement,
and led to selling for local. southern and
Liverpool account, though the trading
was in the main of local character. Be
fore the close prices again rallied, and
the last figures were practically unchang-
ed as compared with last nights hnaf
quotations. The rally was due to buying
for short account together with some new
purchasing. Wall street also bought. The
southern spot markets were dull out
steady"
New York, Nov 20-What Silsby & Co.
say of cotton: Liverpool cables came
lower this morning, and our market re-
sponded at the opening, which was TO 4
points under yesterdays close. After the
opening there was a slight squirt caused by
covering of yesterdays shorts, which car
ried prices up few points, this was fol-
lowed by renewed selling, both home and
abroad, and prices were depressed until
near the closing hour, when Liverpool
turned buyer and prices advanced rapidly,
closing at a gain of 3 points on the day.
The close was firm and higher prices are
looked for tomorrow. We consider jan
uary cotton at 1850 a safe investment, and
recommend purchases around that figure"
