The SUL'S cottoa review says: Cotton fu-
lures opened lower and further declined under
continued depression in the Liverpool market
and recent selling by leading bulls who were in
clined to let go to get a. better hold At q
drop of 719 points for this crop and somewhA vt
less for next, the demand to cover contracts
and steadiness of spot cotton caused partial
recovery, but in the last half hour there was re
newed depression, and the close was wea at
about the lowest figures of the day. Cotton on
spot was quiet, but there was no quotaole de-
