Steady Start, Prices Unchanged

TIMIOITY OF THE SHORTS
Traders Generally Disposed to Hold Off for July Government Report The Close Was Steady
 At a Net Advance

New York, July 1.-The cotton market made a tolerable steady start with prices unchanged to 1 point higher, and then ruled very quiet in the absence of news of con sequence, although there was any quantity of gossip in circulation purportng to give Texas, but these reports failed to exert any marked influence on the market. Business throughout the forenoon ruled very quiet, but there was rally of 3@4 points on cov- ering with no well defined reason for the movement beyond a natural timidity on the part of shorts in view of the sensational stories still in circulation. The upward movement was retarded to a degree by the unsatisfactory character of the English cables, notably the indications of small dealings in spot cotton at Liverpool
 Traders were generally disposed to hold off for the July government report. The market closed steady at net advance Of 2q3 points.
