New York, Jan. 1.-THE cotton market
was narrow and almost featureless. Open.
| ing quiet and firm at an advance of la
points there was a further advance of Ia
points, more directly attributed to the
| favorable character of the foreign news
Private cables circulating here to-day were
decidedly encouraging, in nearly all cases
| pointing to a well sustained English de
| mand. After working within a range OF
! ! to 8 points our market closed quiet and
steady with net advance of 1G2 points.

New York, Jan. 7-Riordan & Co say oil
cotton: Cotton advanced a little agar
to-day. rise of one sixty-fourth in Liv-
erpool this morning, with large spot sales
was considered quite favorable, and oui
market opened points higher The fact
that to-day's receipts and the movement
for the week were both very large, was
entirely ignored by the market, and the
small gain made at the opening was main
tanned until the close. May opened at 592c
fuctuated between 5.91c and 5.9Sc, and
closed at 592c to 5.93c, with the tone of the
market quiet, but steady
