New York, April 15.-Cotton market
opened quiet and steady at unchanged
prices to l point advance and ruled very
tame throughout the short session, with
uHlIhportant subsequent variations. News
at hand was too conflicting to give either
sue special advantage. Whereas the Eng
hsn cables averaged up quite bulishly,
NIop daNces were of gratifying tenor The
NIop movement was small, but stocks at
"'etIor points and the ports continued to
u'9utnulate in a surprising manner The
M'atner map recorded good rains in Cen
tol 1eXaS, Arkansas and the districts in
'''e hcf1h central part of the belt where
moisture was needed.
