COTTON MARKETS.
NEW YORK.

NEW YORK. March 1.-The cotton
market was unsettled early today with
the talk around the floor indicating con-
siderable uncertainty as to the effect of
the expected British blockade announce
ment on cotton shipments. For some
time past, however, the tendency has been
to even up commitments in anticipation
of such a development. and today's early
trading was comparatively quiet with
fluctuations narrow.
The opening was steady at an advance
of points to a decline Of l point. and
active months ruled about a point or two
over Saturdays closing figures during
the early session.
Futures opened steady: March. S.26 !:
May. $40: July, s.67; October. 8.95; De-
cember. 915.
Liverpool became a seller here shortly
after the opening, presumably on fresh
straddle account. and prices eased off to
a net loss of 4 or points during the
middle Of the morning.
There was some scattering liquidation
on this decline, but offerings became less
active after the close of the English mar
ket and prices here steadied up to about
Saturdays closing figures on covering and
the continued heavy exports.
