MOVEMENT IS IRREGULAR

New York, February 2s.-After quite a sharp early advance the cotton market eased off under realizing in the absence of bull support and closed steady, but at net decline of 1 to 8 points. Sales were estimated at 25OOOO bales. The market opened steady at an advance of to 4 points in response to steady cables, and as soon as it became evident that March notices estimated at about S0,O00 bales, were being promptly stopped, the active old crop months sold up to a net gain of 10 to 12 points on covering, local support and some buying for Liverpool account. It was probable that scattering longs ex- pected leading bull interests to be more aggressive after the notices were stopped, and when nothing of this sort developed, realizing set in, under which the market weakened with active months selling about 15 to T. points under the high level of the morning.
 The close was within or points of the lowest. with new crop months showing the greatest loss. Receipts were light and the small into-sight movement for the week suggested a buliish visible supply statement for tomorrow Exports were about GOO halez in excess Of the days port receipts sAern spot markets were about aneaansra e a shade lower.

After the opening room traders were the chief buyers and a lull ensued. during which prices eased off several points. This was first notice day for the March option In New York and comparatively early about 5000 notices were reported to have been put in circu- lation there, this being considerable un- der the amount expected by the trade here.
