New York May 14-RiOrdan & Co. say
Of cotton to-day: THE market to-day
showed little change as compared with
yesterday. crop accounts continue excel
lent and the bearish feeling here Is stead
ily increasing, but the covering of short
contracts, especially in the later months
sustained the market and at one time
was steady with prices in months slightly
higher than Sterday'S cloSingS ana IN
other cases unchanged. August opened al
SVSc, advanced TO S.l2c and closed az Sue
hld, with the tone steady. Mr Inman SAID
today that he had been credited with the
intention of cornering May and then of
Cornering June. He was now practically
out of both these months. Now 1t was
SAID he intended to corner August. Inc
truth was he did not know what he should
%, ne would act according 10 the develop
Ments from day to day. He was not IN
vowed with any clique or combination,
ana being entirely toot-ioose ne would act
as he thought best. If he choose to get
out of cotton entirely it is nobOdy's bust
ness but his own. If it were believed that
dr. Inman had sold out there would be
sudden and sharp tumble in the prices
or The near months"
