The suns cotton review SAYS: Futures
opened at as points decline, further declined.
and partially recovered, CLOSING quiet aud steady
at 4doS points decline from yesterdays closing
prices Predictions of frost in the southwest
were not realized, aud prices took q small fail,
inside prices being the lowest reaoned this
season. October options dropping below l0c
The bulls again seemed quite demoraiz ID. and
that prices did not go lower was due wholly to
the timiiity OF bears in putting out contracts.
Soon after the last call the market took
hardening tendency. Southern spot markets
were more active aud the movement OF the
crop fell somewhat below last season, both at
the ports and at interior towns. causing some
