March 8. —The cotton mar ket failed to improve more than one ! point advance, secured on the opening call, in the face of bullish cables, more or less bad weather in the South and the iist of favorable factors which havt been the stock in trade of the bull in terest so long, including the talk of wet lands. backward planting, good trade in cotton cloths, orders ahead at most spinning centers, firm Southern markets, etc. This failure was due to a mor, or less steady stream of liquida tion orders, -aid to be in good part from Wall Street; although the sidling soon extended. Later it was claimed that certain Wall Street lnxvple were buying again: but as a rule liquidation was the ordir of the day.

New York, March S. —The stock mar ket was dull most of the day except the closing, when there was considerable activity. The interest largely cantered in the Coalers, whieh made some hand some advances, and a number of the Specialties went up over a ixtiut, while fractional advances wre the rule in many stocks. The published report of a combination of practically all the Coalers was the ground or the strength in those properties. Much interest at tached to the declaration of the regular dividends in Sugar. The market waited until it was announced, and then mod erate activity appeared. Sugar, after opening higher and then losing more than the earlier gain, rose about four points for the day.
