The bears were still selling winter

weighed down by the selling. 1t is
said that exporters and spinners have

New York, May 26.-The afternoon
session of the cotton market has been
uneventual, and what is generally term
ed IAN evening up" market over the
holidays. There is beginning to be
some anxiety expressed as to the true
condition of affairs in the South At
lantic States and the Eastern Gulf
Territory.
Reports are in a measure conflicting,
and while they are generally bad, there
is encouragement i'm the belief that
there is yet ample time to remedy and
practically overcome the delayed and
backward condition of affairs. provid-
ed, the much needed rain and warmer
weather comes at an early date.
Spot business to-day has been eN-
tremely light, both in the local and
foreign markets. The depression in
Liverpool is in a measure attributed
to bear manipulation, they hoping to
break this market.
