Green & Co. s report on cotton futures says;
Market opened with flrmer tone and gained
5G6 points, and then took downward turn,
which led to a very liberal decline, rates drop
ping off some 160lS points from the highest OF
the day. The position simply represented the
course of liquidation, the tendency TO increase
the estimate of the crop having gone out, and
induced the run of orders to sell long cot on,
also added TO the short side to some extent
making altogether an oppressive offering.
Abroad, however, the tone has been fairly cheer
full, and here there was some very good buying
at the decline, especially by few OF the larger
house, with the close, however, showing con
tinued lack of tone, but sellers apparently less
anxious to fierce matters. Brlehy the SITUATION
represents a bad case of frightened longs, who
must spill out until the market is relieved of its
supert1uous holding.

CHICAGO, Jan. 9.-The bearish effect of the
government crop report of Saturday had not
yetiworn off when the markets opened this
morning. In the grain pits trading started in
fairly active. but prices were lower than Satur-
day-S33zc for May. Traders in wheat appeared
very nervous during the first hour Liverpool

generally sellers. May sold down to $3.50, then
IN to 1910, became fairly steady with little
doing ranged between 635s@sfAc the highest
point being reached when the visible supply
showing a decrease of $4,000 bushels, which
was larger than expected was announced. The
bulk of the trading was In small way and done
by scalpers May closed at $3.50. Corn was
the most active grain on the floor, and was
rather weak. There was disposition both to
realize and TO sell short. The visible supply

Oats for future delivery. were 3s6nl6c lower

wheat and corn. In provisions there was but
little doing during the early part Of the session,

less firm. Lard and short ribs were both very
quiet.
