COTTON MARKETS.
NEW YORK.

NEW YORK. October 23.-The cotton
market was quiet this morning. and
after opening at unchanged prices to
an advance of 2 points, showed irregu-
lar fluctuations within a comparatively
narrow range. Gables were about as
due. but Liverpool had some large
buying orders around the local ring,
with January selling up to 1852 and
March to 1882. or about to s points
net higher. right after the call. but
there was scattering local pressure,
and trading seemed to be largely in
the way of evening up accounts for
the ginning report expected Monday.
Futures opened steady; December.
12.45; January. 1856; March. 1877:
May. 1892; July. 1896.
Spot cotton quiet; middling uplands,
12.45; no sales.
Futures closed steady; December.
242: January. 1854; March. 1874;
May, 1888 July. 1892.
After selling at 1853 for January
during the middle of the session. the
market weakened under local and
southern selling and liquidation which
seemed to be inspired by reports of
an unsettled sterling exchange situa-
tion. January eased off to 1858. and
the close was steady net unchanged to
Z points lower.
