cotton market further advanced 2d5 points

conflicting and including Fumors of a
cold wave in Texas, receipts falling be-
low estimates, helped the early improve

break of 10G16 points, under active liqui-
dalton, following disappointment regard

New York, Sept. 17.-Riordan & Co., say
of cotton: Cotton declined sharply again
to-day. The trading was practically of
the same character as yesterdays, and
the break was due to the same cause. Liv-
erpool declined two six-fourths- this morn
ing. This was regarded as favorable, and
our market opened two points better.
During the morning session the market
was dull and steady. Liverpool again
sold here with freedom. In the afternoon
the heavy movement of supplies for the
week and declining southern markets
caused a revival of liquidation, and values
rapidly gave way. January opened at
6. 7Jc, advanced to 6.76c, declined to 666c,
and closed al 6.slc to 6.65c, with the tone
of the market steady. The weakness in
the near months was again pronounced.
Crop accounts continue unfavorable.
