Inc cotton market was irregular to-
day. with business on a reduced scale
and OF still more local professional
character than OF late. The opening was
steady at a decline Of gas points the
latter in September. due to the large num-
Der OF notices issued this morning. Liver
pool cables We're better, and bad crop
accounts were received during the first
hour. The early selling soon stopped.
and the market rallied on covering OF
shorts, and continued steady on large
buying by brokers representing a large
Philadelphia firm. Liverpool traded on
both sides OF the market. Commission
houses were again fair buyers. and Wall
street later in the session also bought.
Local traders and the bear element and
some southern interests were the prin-
cipal sellers. The large receipts of new
cotton We're used by the bears in their
endeavor TO keep prices down. The close
