New York, Sept 10-The market for
dry goods had presented slightly more

NEW YORK COTTON.
New York, Sept 1O-The cotton mark
ct opened firm at an advance of 1 to 8
points and for time ruled active with
an upward tendency following a better
class of cables than expected.
The early market was also bullishly
influenced by indications of renewed sup
port from recognized bull leaders; furth-
cred by a rumor to the effect that late
bear leader had turned bull. There was,
later, period of liquidation that car
ried prices off little Later there was
a sharp rally on renewed support, consid-
cradle increase in outside investment de-
mand and some pretty active covering,
following reports of crop deterioration,
Reports of boil weevil rust and shedding
became quite numerous although it is to
be said that they were generally to be
traced to bull sources The market to-
wards the close eased off anywhere from
8 to 10 points under realizing, but was
finally steady at a net rise of to II
points. Sales were estimated at 100000
