| New York, May 31.-Speculation in cot
| ton continues to hang, and the volume Of
| business was small to-day, although the
market showed generally firm under
Tone at slight average advance, the
| foundation of which was the favorable
| character of English advances, especially
the feature of large spot sales of cotton
| at Liverpool, aggregating $4,000 bales for
two days, closing at an advance Of l-32d.
while futures in the English market were
also higher.
1 Another favorable factor was the en-
| couraging quality of advices from cotton
| goods makers and markets. But business
became rather slow of change after the
market had opened steady at an advance
| of 1M3 points, with short lived interval
of activity. following the bullsh feeling
| awakened by the English cables. Suisse
uuently the market tanned off and as
sumed local characteristics. The with
| drawal of outside support was abrupt and
| marked An easier interval followed un-
| der cautious liquidation, as crop accounts
were not uniform, although in the main
they were bearish The market was fin
| ally quiet at unchanged prices TO net
