New York, June .2,-Riordan & Co. say
of cotton to-day: Another bad break in
Liverpool to-day led to a still more pro
nonnced break here August declined just
% points, opening at 7.76c and closing at
7 56c bid. with the tone barely steady. The
fan and winter months closed at a de-
cline somewhat less than that OF August,
but heavy enough to strike terror in the
bull ranks. The fall in price mas now
baen so rapid and continuous that we
rather expect some reaction, and II our
friends who have sold cotton choose to
cover their short lines, We are inclined
to think they will nave an opportunity
to put them out again at somewhat higher
prices. sharp reaction must come un-
complaining of drought, get speedy re-
New York. June 2-The Sun says of cot
ton: Cotton advanced to 4 points, but
lost this and fell IA points on this crop,
and II on the next, closing IL points lower
for the day on this crop and to IL on
the next, with the tone barely steady and
the sales $4,000 bales.

partly to some reaction in Liverpool, bur
more to an interruption to telegraph ser

of general rains in that state. The signal
service predicted showers during the next
thirty-siX hours in South Carolina, North
Carolina, Alabama and Louisiana. The
receipts at the ports were larger; he
