New York, May n.-Riordan & Co. say
of cotton to-day: THE market twisted
upward to-day. Liverpool was lower and
the opening here was weak, with August
at SC, but heavy and continuous buying
of August supposed to be for Wall street
account gradually lifted the whole list.
August rose to 8.13c and closed at Sic
bid, with the tone steady. The bureau
report announced to-day, making the
average increase of acreage in the cotton
belt a little less than Is per cent, is gem
orally regarded both here and in New
Orleans as an underestimate. The re-
port shows that the crop has had an early
start, in fact, about the earliest on rec
ord. The report was considered bearish,
but was ignored by the market Mr.. In
man still talks with great confidence of
higher prices. He said to-day that he
was now entirely out Of June, having
sold out his heavy purchases at a good
profit. He denied that he was aiming to
corner any month, but said he was bulling
cotton on what he considered its merits
and on statistical position. Mr.. Inman
may be rigat now, as he certainly has
been right of late, but we should advise
out friends to pin their faith to his bullisn
