NEW YORK FUTURES.
New York, June 1S.-The cotton market
opened steady at d decline of to s
points in response to rather lower cables
than expected. Business was quiet dur
ing the early session, but the southern
bull leaders bid for large blocks of Aug
ust and October right after the call and
prices soon steadied up to within a point
or two Of last nights finals. Fresh buy
ing for long account was checked by
prospects for better weather, however.
and with no renewal of the demand from
Wall street shorts. the market during the
middle morning session was narrow and
irregular.
Orleans and the official forecast for partly
cloudy weather in the western belt and
showers in the east started a little more
buying during the middle of the morning.
but prices showed little improvement and
at midday ruled about to points net
lower.
The market was steadier during the
ca rlier afternoon on continued rains with
active positions ruling about to points
net higher.
Spots closed lower; niddling, uplands.
