NEW YORK, May 27.-CoTToN-The
market opened steady at an advance of
points to a decline of points. on the near
changed to points higher. The i-reg-
ularity was largely due to the showing
made by the Liverpool cables, which, at the
time of the local opening, were about as ex-
pected on the near months, while the new
crop was higher than considered due on the
local closing of yesterday, Other influences
were more or less conflicting. Port receipts
OF the day were estimated to show heavily
as compared with last year. but on the
other hand estimates for the week showed
decreasing tendency and the weather was
not entirely favorable in some sections
Trading was much less active after the
call and after the first demands for the
new crop had been filled the market turned
easier, declining to level 20 points lower
At this time July sold at 11kc, August al
106Sc, September at 1850 and December al
9.46c. At this level there was considerable
covering owing to the still further losses al
Liverpool and the market was slowly raj
lied. All through the session May was
comparatively neglected and the course OF
that option led to the opinion, more or less
generally expressed on the floor, that the
short interests in that option had pretty
generally covered and sensational develop
ments In that connection, therefore, were
considered unlikely. The New England
clique leader reiterated his intention OF
leaving for Europe on the Sd, but on the
afternoon large buying orders for the late
positions were credited to this interest and
New Orleans also sent buying orders. On
the evidence of this support room shorts
turned for cover and the market became
more active. touching a new high level for
the day just before the close. The market
closed steady at within 2 or points of the
best, or net points lower to net 10 points
higher. Total sales futures were estimated
at 25O,000 bales.

CATTLE-There was liberal run of cat
tie here this morning and also at all other
points, and as a result prices suffered to a
greater or less extent. Buyers took hold
quite freely, and although they started in
bidding lower they seemed to want the
cattle, and the bulk was disposed of IN
good season.
Beef steers could be quoted 5d10c lower
than yesterday. The big end OF the
ceipts here was made up of tat steers and
the quality was good. The market was not
very active owing to the fact that sales
men tried to prevent break in prices, but
as Chicago was quoted a dime lower they
finally had to take off 5Ql0c here. A good
many trains were late in arriving owing
to the heavy storms and that helped to
delay the market, but still the bulk of the
receipts sold at a reasonably early hour.
The cow market was uneven again this
morning and could be quoted all the way
from steady to a dime lower in extreme
cases. The medium kinds in most cases
suffered the worst, as the demand for the
choice kinds was sufficient to hold prices
nearly steady in the majority OF cases.
Bulls veal calves and stays sold without
much trouble at right around the same
prices that we're paid yesterday.
The supply of sUockers and feeders was
very moderate this morning and anything
at all decent was picked up in hurry at
good, steady prices. Even the commoner
grades sold without any trouble at good,

light all this week. Representative sales:
