New York, April S.-Afier an irreguiar
start, the cotton market developed builish
inclinations this morning and showed a
very steady undertone during the rest of
the session. As a natural result OF disap-
pointing cables. estimates for an excep-
tionally large movement at Southern ports
and distinctly bearish news regarding CROP
progress, the market opened barely steady
in tone, with prices unchanged to 2 points
lower. The few selling orders which ap-
peared on the call were followed by quite
an avalanche of buying orders. the bulk
of the latter coming from summer month
shorts, who had taken fright at rumors Of
an amicable settlement of the Philippine
troubles, reports that the government crop
statement for May would prove less favor
able as regards the acreage question than
heretofore expected, and evidences that the
Liverpool bear element were apprehensive
of manipulation on this side. August adj
vanced to sac with a rush, with the rest
of the near at hand deliveriesf close fol-
lowers. Inc idE l1olttilE tiidiiiltSttu reid
lively less strength owing to scattered
selling orders from the South and some
pressure from local traders Late
in the forenoon there was a partial reac-
ton under good weather forecasts, but
subsequent developments Indicated a gem
orally healthy undertone and more opt-
mistie turn Of sentiment. The close was
steady with prices points higher TO
points net lower.
