New York Cotton.

NEW YORK, Feb, 15.-Cotton was
more or less unsettled today but
prices rallied after an early decline
and closed firm at net less OF
points to an advance of 5 points.
March was 4 points lower, while later
deliveries were generally to points
net higher.
The market opened steady at q de-
cline of s to 8 points in sympathy
with relatively easy cables and active
months sold about z to 8 points net
lower during the early trading. Con-
tirued nervousness over the shipping
situation and apprehensions of a
checA in the export movement, com
bired with predictions of Increased
southern spot offerings with the ap-
vroach OF the new crop planting sea-
son, appeared to be chiefly. respon-
sible for The decline.
There was a good deal of buying on
scales down, however. and this sup
port checked the decline around 9.03
for October and trading later became
less active with prices working up
ward on covering and bull support.
The close was at practically the best
point of the day.
The census figures on supply and
distribution appeared to create no
fresh sentiment of consequence. while
the rally was aided by the relatively
heavy spinners' taking for last week,
and the continued free export move
ment. -

UNFORESEEN DIFFICULTIES ARISE

II no unforeseen accidents occur to
hinder building operations the new
county bridge across the Umatilla
river at the east end of the city will
be ready for traffic by Saturday Of
this week.
This was the announcement made
today by County Judge Marsh. with
the many delays at the outset, caused
by high water principally, the bridge
was far from being finished on the
date called for in the contract, Sep
tember, but according TO Judge
Marsh. this delay was as much the
fault of the county as the company.
The work, however has been rushed
ahead now and everything is done
except a few finishing touches to as
sure its being in perfect condition
before traffic is allowed to pass over
