COTTON MARKETS.

NEW YORK, May 31.-The cotton

lower, near-months being influenced
by higher cables and bullish spot

influence Of continued good weather

covery of 2so points from the low
level of last week. but it looked as
II the short interest had been sub
stantially reduced on the rally of the
last few days. and the general list
soon weakened under realizing. Stop
worked off. and before the end of
the first hour July had sold down to
25.08 and October to 1888, or about
forty-five to fifty points net lower.
Futures opened barely steady; July.
$3.50; October. 24.40; December, 24.1o;
Liverpool buying of July and scat
tered covering caused slight rallies
toward the middle of the morning, but
bulges of a few points met increased
offerings with the break later ex-
tending to 24.so for July and 1880
lower. Nervousness over the war
situation and the generally bearish
character Of weather and crop news
seemed to be the factors on the de-
cline, in connection with the easier
technical position after recent ad-
vances. The volume of business
tapered off toward midday with the
tone becoming rather steadier at
rallies of some 15 to 20 points on
