The Suns cotton review says: Futures
opened with decided change, closed sos points
| lower and easy. There was not much of a
| market to-day, and at times the floor of the
Cotton Exchange was almost deserted. Fluc-
tuations were slight and unimportant, Neither
| party to speculation feels sure of Its ground
| and there is consequently ttful and teverish
action. Bulls recall 1886, when there was de-
cline to S9sc with a crop of $3.50 900 bales, and
| bears recall the past year, when prices went to
| 1234c on a crop OF 1914 900 bales Two wagers
| were made to-day that the next crop will exceed
| 100000 bales. Reports from the south gen.
| orally advise cooler, clearing weather Receipts
| at the ports fall below the estimates, but the
interior movement continues large. Spot cotton
! unchanged"
