New York, March 9O.-Riordan & Co. say
OF cotton to-day: 1T was a rather stupid
market to-day, the extreme fluctuations
having been within a range of four or FIVE
points. Though the sales in Liverpool were
small prices there rallied a little, and May
after selling on our opening at 7.61c, adj
Nanced to 764c and later to 1850. Then a
lew selling orders sufficed to depress May
20 Lblc but buying to cover shorts caus-
ca rally in the last fifteen minutes. May
closed at 7.64d765c, with the tone very
steady the market is so narrow that the
most moderate orders are enough to affect
II either way Everybody knows that the
local situation is such that prices are east
y subject to bull manipulation and the
Iears keep close to shore On the other
Iand the business outlook is gloomy and
uncertain and there seems to be very lit
We encouragement to buy cotton, we fear
mat to-day's improvement will not last"
