COTTON.
New York, Sept. 5.-There was a
waiting market for cotton, after a steady
opening at an advance of to Z points,
the latter due to bullish cables and
foreign buying, supplemented by more
or less conflicting crop accounts. The
feature of the cables was the net ad-
vance of 11a6I2-64d on Saturdays clos
ing prices in the face of heavy port re-
ceipts, now pointing to 10000 bales
for the week. Following the opening
call, however, the market ruled easier
under liquidation, outside support was
entirely withdrawn and the local traders
became more or less disposed to hold
off for the September Government re-
port from Washington. Local opinions
on the report We're conflicting. During
the afternoon business was on n strictly
local basis, with unimportant variations,
averaging slightly below the best fig
ures of the morning. Bad reports from
Texas made sellers scarce, while the
large receipts checked buying. The
market was finally quiet at a net gain
of / to points.
