New York, Nov. 1G-To-days cotton mar
ket opened steady in tone with prices on
the first call showing an advance of one
point to a decline Of points Subsequent
business developed a generally firm senti-
ment on the part Of the local contingent
but failed to demonstrate the existence
Of outside speculative interest. Local COW
ering was the principal feature throughout
the session. The market was to some ex-
tent stimulated by the English cables
which showed an increasing demand for
spot cotton in the Liverpool market and
an improvement IN the quotation list for
future deliveries. A moderate Increase
in Liverpool stocks. over the holdings of
last week was reported but
this excess made no partieu-
lar impression on the local market
having been pretty well discounted Bull
ish sentiment was further strengthened
by the failure Of port and interior move
ment to justify the ultra estimates of the
bears made earlier in the week The
Southern markets reported the continued
presence Of foreign buyers and a well
sustained export demand limited only as
indicated by the scarcity Of ocean tonnage
During the afternoon traders were dis
posed TO operate with caution especially on
strong claims as 10 conditions at FAN
River and also Manchester. The market
was finally steady at a net gain of to
points.
