New York, Jan. 22.-Riordan & Co. say
of cotton to-day; Cotton moved within
a narrow range to-day, opening at an i'm
provement as compared with yesterday
closing and remaining pretty firm, with
small fluctuations most of the day. The
highest prices were touched shortly after
2 o'clock, when March sold at 7.l4c. In
the final trading the market was af-
fected unfavorably by the statement OF
Hester, the New Orleans statistician, that
the amount coming into sight this week
would be 149 600 bales This was some
what more than was anticipated earlier
in the day. but far less than the bears
predicted earlier in the week. March
closed at 1000, with the tone barely
steady. After the close prices were slight
ly better. Port receipts for the coming
week are estimated at 1900 bales, and the
amount coming into sight at 10000
| against $4,000 last year. We advise ouI
friends to buy cotton on breaks"
New York, Jan. 22.-The Sun says of cot
ton: ''To-day's features were: The spec
ulation was feverish and the fluctuations
in prices were frequent, but were confined
within a narrow range, the last quota
tions showing but slight changes from
| last nights final prices. At the opening
prices advanced on better Liverpool ad-
vices than had been expected. The esti-
mated receipts a the ports were light and
the interior movement was moderate. The
buying orders We're soon exhausted, how
| ever and prices receded on liberal esti-
mates of receipts at New Orleans to-mor-
row. Later on the tone became firmer in
the absence of any pressure to sell and
| prices slowly advanced again. Mr.. Hes
ter's statement of the crop movement
! since the first of the season was
bearish and the amount brought into sight
for the week was larger than had been ex-
pected early in the day. Liverpool and
New Orleans were moderate sellers, how
ever The amount brought into sight was
| $4,000 against the estimates of 14O,0OC
