Cotton Opened with an Advance.

Murphy & Co. say of cotton to-day: The
market here ruled feverish and opened
eycittd with an advance of from to II
points, based on Liverpool advance of s
on spots and 6-64 on futures. Reaction
set in, in both markets, based on the ru-
mors that Mr.. Neil reaffirmed his pre-
viOusly large crop views. The market
hardened again on continued bad crop
accounts but the longs who had bought
at lower prices began to cover, saying to
themselves. Il have TOO much sense to
believe Neill's impossible estimate, but
am afraid the other bulls might believe it
and sell" So the market was sold down
about twenty points from the high prices
Should the dry, hot weather continue
throughout this week in Texas, rains
would be of no benefit to the crop.

the market to-day was a drop of p
