New York Cotton Morket

NEW YORK, July 23.-Huttons wire says:
Cotton opened steady, unchanged to 3 points
lower which made a new showing compared
with the cable yesterday The trading was light
and the market had a heavy tone almost all day
Crop news was favorable Houston reported eco
new bales to date. and many new bales were re
ceived from points in north Texas. Some of the
big spot men say this years crop is the earliest
in history, and there is demand for spots
There has been much aggressive buying and
bull talk OF late that the short interest outside
of hedges is small, but the long interest is no
doubt large, awaiting bad crop news.
The feeling is mixed. All gossip is bearish
and the newspapers claim that the Fall River
splnners are TO Xlthdraw from the wage agree
claim that the print cloth market is demoralized
and that manufacturers are forced to further
curtail. Crop news is bearish and there is moth
ing to bull the market ON.
