c. l.. Green Il Co.'s report says: "a very
general desire to sell reduced the cost about
points on an average, closing barely steady
good crop accounts and hestating advices
from Liverpool, accOmp panied by weakness on
silver, were the evident depressing factors.
Considerable selling of long cotton and some
shortng has taken place on near months
while the pressure to put out contracts for the
new crop was continued to a fair extent. 1t
is thought That prices on the latter proved
rather stubborn in view Of quite little cover
ing at margins"
