New York, Jan. 22.-Cotton moved within narrow range today, opening at an improve ment as compared with yesterdays closing
 and remaining pretty firm with trifiing fiue- tuations most of the day. The highest prices were touched shortly after o'clock, when March sold at TIA in the final trading; the market was affected unfavorably by the statement of Hester, the New Orleans statis- tcan that the amount coming into sight this week would be 749,0O0 bales. This was somewhat more than anticipated earlier in the day, but far less than the bears pre- dicted earlier in the week. March closed at 7.09 with the tone barely steady. After the close prices were slightly better. Port receipts for the coming week are estimated at 140,000 bales, and the amount coming into sight at 146 900 bales, against 1z7.00 last year.
