New York Cotton Market.

New York, Aprn 10.-Tho cotton market
made a barely steady start The first call
trading was at unchanged prices to decline
OF points the weakness being due TO I'M
satisfactory cables, Immediately after the
call. however, there was a sharp rally of Sdi
points started by brisk buying by houses with
foreign connections, stimulated by reports of
heavy to big frosts in the Atlantic sections.
This also started demand from local shorts
July and August buying by houses with, New
Orleans connections were also a feature OF
the carly market. Before noon. however.
prices had reccded to about the opening call
basis aud trading became very slack. There
was considerable disappointment regarding
the volume of outside speculation in regard
10 the refractory and unsatisfactory character
OF the weather report from the South, Toe
bear contingent distrusted their position While
shelving dispatches to prove that cotton plsnt-
ing was making seasonable progress on an
average During tho afternoon speculative
deSlngs became very marrow with a gradual
leakage of lonc cotton. giving rather weak
undertone TO the local situation.
