Nav York, May 12-Business on the Cot
| ton Exchange to-day was smaller than
that OF the past few days, the scope Of
price changes being narrower. The mar
ket started steady in tone, with prices Off
las points in sympathy with a reaction
in futures at Liverpool. From this basis
there was little divergence during the rest
of the session, the market at the close
| being steady at a net decline of los points.
The usual buying orders for the sum-
mer months from Europe We're on hand
at the opening, but after these had been
| executed became listless and showed very
| little energy during the balance of the
| session. Commission house representa-
tives found time heavy on their hands
| as did the majority of the local trade
| imperfect and conflicting ideas as to the
real condition of the growing crop Dis
| patches from the belt were few. and far
| between. The weather news was crafty
| ing in some respects, noting fair to good
rains in the northern and western por-
| tons of the cotton regions. with normal
temperature The forecast pointed to show
| ers in portions of the Central Gulf states
and Atlantic states within the next
twenty-four hours, where rain is badly
needed

New York, May 12.-Hubbard Bros. &
Co. say of cotton: Our advices from
Manchester report an active business do
ing in the manufacturing center. though
the demand for cotton In Liverpool has
shown a sharp falling off as compared
with yesterday. Il is, however, on an ex-
tended scale. though not sufficient TO sus-
tain the arrival market, which showed a
slight decline. Cotton does not respond
to the good business IN MANUFACTURING
circles, because Of large supply and the
desire Of merchants holding this supply,
who are quite aware of the existence of
more cotton than the sp.ndIes can spln
this season, to dispose Of their holdings
before the commencement OF another COT
ton year Locally slight decline follow
ed the disappointing advices from abroad
on realizing by disappointed traders, bur
the vast majority OF the trade awaits fur
Their information regarding the supply next
season. which they consider the key to
the situation In the future"
