OrtenefcCo..in their cotton circular, say:
Cotton certificates have not shown much
animation, nor any great amount of flue
tuaiion io value, and on the whole ap
pearances were steady. The market, how
ever, was evidently simply held up by tbe
longs, as no really new demand came in.
LjcI short interest did not appear to
amount to much, and two or three leading
operators simply stood around in a circle
and put in their bids whenever it became
necessary to stay a declining tendency.
