c. l.. Green & Co.'s, report on cotton flu
lures says: "The week opened without I'M
prOvement in tone. some recent bears have
gone over to the bull side. and appear to be
buying the market down. but made no balance
against tine continued liberal offerings, and
price shrank under the pressure. The sltua-
zion in Europe remains tame, but the prlncl-
pal depressing factors we're the iull movement
of supplies with evidence OF more to follow as
the roads improve, ana large oherlugs OF long
cotton on Southern account. After losing
some or g points the close was fairly steady
through local influences"
