| The suns cotton review says: Futures
opened slightly easier, declined presently.
closing steady at a decline Of II points on near
! ami 5QD7 points other months from yester-
day S closing prices. The early Improvement of
and points was due to the fact that LIVERPOOL
did not follow our decline OF yesterday as much
| as our bears expected, hence some buying 70
cover contracts. This done, renewed weakness
was developed, and then bulls renewed thu
process OF unloading with fresh vigor. The de-
| cline in spot cotton although our stock is quite
small, was due mainly 20 the pressure from the
south to sell for prompt Shipment. But it had
potent influence in causing decline in Jauu-
airy options. The difference between January
| and February increased to 20 points, and it
must be stout bull TO stand this. Spot cotton
