COTTON.
New York April 27.-The cotton
market showed surprising strength at
the opening considering the adverse
character of the influence at hand. In
the first place Liverpool cables report
ed considerable softness in futures at
that point as the result of active foreign
liquidation and selling orders from this
side. Coupled with this news were re-
ports from the cotton belt that under
perfect weather conditions the crop was
making rapid Roadway throughout the
Southern portion of the belt with chop
ping in progress in some districts, while
in the Northern section farmers We're
eXerting every effort to profit by the
favorable climatic conditions. The
steadiness of the local market was hard
to account for. The crowd had looked
for quite a reaction from yesterdays
rise as a natural result of the bearish
news. The bull element were not slow
to profit by their advantage and by mid
day had scored an advance of , to 4
points.
The features of the day, speculatively,
was liberal buying Of the summer
months by number of local brokers,
but for what account it was impossible
to learn. This particular demand gave
rise to numerous reports of manipulation.
some going so far as to state that Il
squeeze was in contemplation with Au-
gust shorts aimed at chiefly Through
ont the rest of the day the old crop po-
stions exhibited relative strength and
activity. Light liquidation of new crop
holdings checked a sympathetic rise in
these months, but on the whole the
market showed surprising steadiness
The close was steady with prices 4
points higher to 3 points net lower.
