MARKETS BY TELEGRAPH.
Cotton Letter.

New York, March 4-(Special. THE eX-
pected reaction took place today, but Meth
in extent nor duration did it fill the
hopes of the bulls. Liverpool was rather
more encouraging, and May, which yester-
day sold down to 7.S6, rallied in the earlier
trading to 7.5O. That was the highest. The
market was nervous and unsettled during
most of the day, the fluctuations ranging
between 7.45d7.19 for May, but in the last
hour the pressure of offerings was more
than the market could stand, and May
broke to 7.42, closing at the lowest with the
tone weak. After the close the weakness
was more pronounced, and May freely
offered at TAI. 1t looks now as if nothing
but a substantial rally in Liverpool can
keep prices from going lower.
