COTTON.

New York, Feb. S.LesS speculative
interest was shown in cotton today
than for many months. The hesitation
was marked all along the line. After
the first call had opened at an advance
of 3 to 4 points in near positions and
tapered off to an advance of , points
to decline of points on the later
positions, an easier feeling prevailed
for a time. Liquidation of certain long
interests followed weaker advices from
the stock exchange and the produce eX-
change. 1t was reported that some
Wall street accounts in cotton were
being sold out, and that certain grain
people also interested in cotton We're

receipts as well as the interior receipts
were light. Advices along this line
were strongly bullisl, it being claimed
that for the remainder OF the season the
movement would develop the fact that
the proportion of the cotton already
marketed to the total crop had been
unusually rapid. Good parties had adj
vices to this effect, and the undertone
of the local market was by no means
weak; some parties, already heavy
