New York. Jan. 24.-The cotton mar

was bullish comment on the week end
figures, concerning reports that 1885,
600 bales were on shipboard awaiting
clearance compared with lac, 900 last
year and there may have been some
buying of late months on continued
unfaYorable weather with complaints
of delayed farm work in parts of Texas.
Rather an uncertain feeling seemed
to prevail as to conditions in the goods
trade, however. and the bulges met
scattering liquidation while the buy
ing was attributed largely to covering
for over the week end. The market
opened steady at a decline of points
on July, but generally 1 to u points
higher and sold about 10 to 10 points
above last nights closing figures
shortly after the call with March
touching 36.41 and July 32.49
