PRICES ADVANCE
 ON COTTON MARKET
Offerings Light and Best Prices Reached in the
 Late Trading

New York, March 1.-The fresh light thrown upon international affairs by the statements published in todays papers was reflected in the continued nervous ness of the cotton market today. offer ings were not heavy, however, and an opening decline was followed by rallies with May selling up from 16.4Sc to l5izc and closing at 16.7lc. The general list closed quiet at a net advance of from to 10 points,
 The market opened at an advance of 2 points on August, but generally l to 3 points under last nights closing during the early trading. In addition to scat tired Wall street and local liquidation. there was selling by houses with Liver pool connection, but otherwise the market appeared to be under no pressure. On the contrary, there was buying by trade in- terests partly for southwestern account and as soon as the market steadied. recent sellers showed a disposition to cover
 The demand was at no time active or general, but offerings were very light after the first furry of liquidation, and prices reached the best point of the day in the late trading. March sold up from l6.72c to 16s6c, July from 16.4Sc to l6.65e. and October from 15s2c to 15.S7c. Closing was within point or two of the best Reports of further sales out of the local stock at a good premium on May helped the late advance and part of the buying may have been to undo hedges against such transactions. Complaints of delayed farm work in the eastern and central belts attracted some notice, but attention seemed to be practically nonplused by the state of international affairs and the de velopments in the near months.
