IN THE SOUTH

New York, May 2O.-Tt was day of
small things in the local cotton market
Officially, the opening was dull at last
nights prices. All through the short ses-
sion the crowd was purposeless and excep-
tionally few trades we're made.
The fact that the Liverpool market was
closed tended to increase the indifference
of the professional branch of the trade and
effectually checked investment business.
The weather charts showed warm, clear
weather in all portions of the belt with no
signs of an immediate change.
Private telegraphic information reported
considerable suffering by the plant In a
number of the states in the south by cut
worms and grasshoppers. Reports from
Fail River cloth markets showed sales for
the week to have been about double the
production of the market, strong at the
close and tending upward The crop move
ment shows signs of peterlng out. The
market closed quiet and unchanged to one
point lower.
