COTTON FUTURES.

New York, April 30.-The cotton mar
ket opened firm with prices 3 to IL
points higher this being a fair response
to bullish Liverpool cables and to firm
advices from Southern spot markets.
Nevertheless the opening proved to be
top for the day, as liquidation and
bear pressure sent the whole list off
sharply after the call and the subse-
quent reaction did not fully rally the
market. Trading was less active than
during the earlier part of the week and
for the most part compised professional
lnterchanges. There was no doubling
that the room was bearish and this
feeling had tendency to make timid
longs sell out in the hope of repur-
chasing at a lower level. Liverpool
