In spite OF poor trade the cotton mar
ket to-day holds steady, showing, IL any
tnlhg, a disposition TO advance. To-day
the market opened quiet and steady, with
prices unchanged to point higher. Opera
lions during the first half hour were un-
usually small. and for the rest Of the

statistical situation. Private cables were
authority for the report that sentiment
in English trade circles was bullishly In
clined owing to unparalleled activity In
print-cloths and consequent heavy de-
mand for raw cotton, and that this feel
ing would take substantial form with
