New York, April 26.--The cotton market
opened steady in tone with prices i point
lower to 2 points higher. During the first
few minutes more or less irregularity pre-
vailed owing to conflicting rumors regard
ing the reception of some 10000 May notices
which had been put In circulation by GER
tain houses with the intention, II was un-
derstood, of depressing the market. De-
velopments soon demonstrated that these
tenders were being rapidly gathered In by
the crowd and as a natural result the
houses sending out the notices made a
scramble to recover as many as possible
This demand sent May up points in short
order with the rest of the list following
suit, although less rapidly and on a small
err scale.
BY midday the market had settled into
the old rut and for the rest of the session
ruled generally quiet with room traders IN
control Prices lowered within a point
or two Of the top notch on scattered de-
mand from shorts. together with light buy
ing which drifted in from Wall street The
bear element, while satisfied with crop
and weather news, were made uneasy by
persistent rumors of a contemplated
squeeze of August shorts, and by esti-
mates for much smaller receipts at the
larger interior towns and ports At the
close the market was steady with prices
10 points higher.
