| SUNS cotton report: Cotton declined 2
10 points. recovered this. and advanced

day, with sales OF 200 bales.
J To-day's features: There was nothing
stimulating In the speculative Liverpool
news. and this fact. together with the
tween the grades at the meeting OF the
Revision Committee yesterday, had much
TO do with the early decline bete. The
private adyices from Liverpool ere buii-
| ish. and SO are those from Manchester,
| whatever the public dispatches may say.
The receipts at the. ports to-day were
| light. and they promise To be very small
for the week. In fact, not much over co.
| 600 bales, whereas few DAYS ago tney
We're estmatsd az a., 200 sn 4 not n0ss ,sl @
the same week last year;
This afternoon the market was unques-
! tionably weak. The dulness OF speculation.
| the duiness OF cotton goods, stop orders
| and more or less short selling, drove Il
| rapidly downward and 4 closed weak az
| about the lowest price Of the day.
