New York, Oct. 21.-Riordan & Co. saw
OF cotton to-day: Cotton was almost at a
standstill to-day. AS the election an
proaches, the indisposition to trade seems
10 increase and the buying and selling TO-
day was mainly confined to the room trad
ers. There was a slight decrease in the
port receipts as compared with last week
ana last year, and also in the semi weekly
movements in the southwest but this was
not enough to frighten the little band of
bears who believe in lower prices. jan
uary opened at 7.94c, declined to 7.glc. rail-
lied to 1850 and closed at 1921 93c, with
the tone dull 1t seems palmer than ever
that there is too much long cotton and
every stiffcning of the price is checked by
efforts of the tired bulls to unload"
New York, Oct. H.-The Sun says of cot
ton: Spot cotton here was unchanged
Liverpool was unchanged on the spot for
middlings. The port receipts were 46. SSS
bales Futures here opened l to 4 points
lower, recovered the loss and advanced l
to points, but reacted and closed steady
at net decline of l to points, with sales
of 80, 500 bales. Prices fiuctuated within an
extremely narrow range to-day and at the
close were practically unchanged from
last nights final quotations. The trading
was quiet and almost wholly local Liver
pool was easier and prices here declined
at the opening. But the semi-weekly in
terror movement proved to be smaller than
had been expected and in the absence of
any decided pressure to sell, the market
slowly rallied. Still later, however, prices
weakened again and closed at a small net
loss for the day. The receipts at the ports
were about 10000 bales smaller than a week
ago. The semi-weekly receipts at thirteen
interior towns were $4,000 bales, against
10000 last year,
