Green & Co. S report on cotton futures SAYS:
Cotton certificates have been more active on
an irregular market, but the principal feature
was strained effort necessary TO make any
showing of steadiness. There was nothing par,
ticularly new from the South, but Liverpool
came easier, and this had the effect OF in.
creasing the offering here, especially as some OF
the private accounts from abroad were tanner
than for some time, and many of the local longs
sold with freedom, causing decline OF 596
points. Then the bulls came in, and BID rates
up again to about the figures of saturday even
ing, after which there was a slight weakening
again, with the close dull. Not many new or
ders came in, and purchases, as a rule, indicate
simply an addition to the load of the bulls"

CHICAGO, Feb. 0.-The grain and provision
markets on Change started fairly active and
generally firm. Before noon there WAS re-
| action, which caused grains TO sell lower than
| at the close on Saturday. The unsettled Euro
pean condition was talked in the grain pits, and
| in the wheat crowd there was a fresh bear
| ground for a cold weather argument. There was
| no surprise in any Of the visible supply figures
| announced. Trading was largely controlled by
| a prominent operator, who had bought May
| wheat Saturday under Sic, and he sold all he
| to-day were 4o2 cars. This caused some weak
| ness in the market shortly after the opening
| Later it was discovered that the stock of corn
1 at New York had decreased nearly 100000
| bushels and prices were advanced slightly
| Then came the visible supply figures, showing
| only SO 600 bushels decrease FOR the week. and a
trader who has made the local markets for the
| week past became seller, and prices reacted
May opened at 5l4c, sold at 51A@5lsSc, then
at 5l76c, and closed at 5l35@5l14c lower than
| the closing price cf last week. During the
| morning May and June oats together sold at
| 3l@@3l56c alternately. Before the close the
| closed NC lower and June nc lower. Lard fur
