.BULLISH NEWS APPEARS

New York, July 12.-The cotton market was fairly active again today with sales estimated at 100000 bales.
 Fluctuations were irregular with the market making a new low record for the movement during the early session, but recovering part of the loss later and closing steady, net unchanged to Il points lower with late months rela- lively firm. The opening was barely steady at a decline of to Il points under continued pressure from local bears and liquidation, notwith standing better cables than looked for. The weather map was considered good and the near months were influenced by ap- prehensions that the former bulls would retender all the cotton taken up on May and July contracts, but there was fair demand for the new crop positions on a scale down and aft
 CT selling off to a net loss of about 10 to 20 points, the list rallied on cov- ering and New Orleans bull support. In spite of the good weath CT many of the private reports from the south regarding the progress of the crop are unfavorable, and as was the case yes terday, numerous bullish messages were received from New Orleans re- garding the probable crop and its course on the market. The market continued very nervous on the rally owing to fears that there would be a renewal of pressure from the bear clique. The early decline carried the active new crop months about 75 points under the high level of last week. Southern spot markets were generally unchanged. Receipts at the ports today, -, against 20s5 last week and 3317 last year.
 For the week, 15,000 bales, against 13,42s last week, and 27.7S6 last year. Todya's receipts at New Orleans, 1447 bales, against 1850 last year, and at Houston, 99S bales, against 156 last year
