New York May 20.-It was a day of
small things in the local cotton market.
Officially the opening was dun at last
nights prices All through the short ses-
sion the crowd was purposeiess and ex-
cepuonaly few trades were made.
The fact that the Liverpool market was
closed tended TO increase the Indifference
OF the professional bAncn of the trade
and effectually checked investment bust
ness. The weather chart showed warm,
Clear weather in an portions of the belt
with no signs of an immediate change.

number Of states from drouth, cut worms
and grasshoppers. Reports from FAN riv-
er cloth markets showed sales for the
week 10 have been about double the pro-
auction of mills with the market strong
at me close and tending upward. The crop
movement shows signs of petering out.
The market closed quiet, unchanged to
one point lower
