New York, April 9-The cotton market
opened steady, with prices unchanged &c
point lower, and ruled inactive through
out the forenoon, with the scalping elc-
ment in control. There was a slight rally
shortly after the opening, on few scat
tered buying orders, with the market at i
o'clock duh, but steady. at a net gain oi
to points. Sales to that time reached
but $500 bales. The better feeling was
chiefly due to more favorable politica
news from Washington and fighter por
and Interior movement. The market was
call and featureless late, with the close
at a net gain of 1G2 points.
