was followed to-day by a quieter cotton
market, and a small less in values. The
Liverpool market was two siXty-fourths
higher on Saturday, but lost that advance
this morning. This report was considered
rather discouraging, and prices here were
3 to points lower at the opening, May
selling on the first call at 606c At the
decline there was a spirited speculative
demand, and notwiths landing free Liver
pool selling, prices advanced, May touch
ing 6.12c. The buying power exhausted
itself in a short while. however and TIE
market became quiet and gradually re-
coded TO about the opening figures May
closed at 6.07c to 6.0Sc, with the tone of
the market steady. Southern markets
We're bullish. Receipts We're enormous.
Some weakness in the stock market over
the Cuban situation helped the decline.
The sustaining influence must be, we
think, continued big spot demand. With
out this prices should go lower"
