CLOSED AT STEADY ADVANCE

New York, April 2S-The cotton market opened steady, with prices 1 to 1 points higher, and immediately developed pro- nounced strength on a scare of outside shorts, which resulted in report from private sources that excessive rains in Central Texas were causing floods and good damage to the cotton lands. Bullish English cables and foreign buying orders, together with light receipts, added to the firm undertone of the market. Wall street was conspicuous buyer of July and Au- gust on the bulge.
 lnaSmuch as warehouses came into pos | session of a few buying orders on the fu- ture rise bears quietly sold at prices above 9-30 for August, taking the stand that the Texas rains on the whole would do more good than harm, and that the ad- vance of yesterday and this morning had not only greatly cut down the short in terest, but had piled up an unwieldy &C., count in Wall street. The late market was quite feverish un- der this confiiction of opinions with trad ing spasmodic, though more active than in weeks.
 The market for futures closed steady, with prices net to 10 points higher
