The sans cotton revew says: Futures
| opened at 1Q12 points decline, closing dull but
steady at 406 points decline from yesterday g
| closing prices. There was renewed depression
| to-day. but not so much Of an agony as yes
| terday. Liverpool came or points lower, and
receipts at the ports were largely in excess of
| all estimates, making greater total for this
| week than for the corresponding period last
week, and exceeding the whole of the corre-
| spending week last year. Under these circum-
| stances 'Stan1 from under was the renewed
battle cry of the bears, but at the weak decline
| many tn ought it expedient to cover contracts
| and decline was arrested. Many contracts,
| when they fell below zoe, we're actively
| bought. Ghe recovery, however, was but
| slight. More liberal buying by manufacturers
| both at home and abroad is now the one thing
| needed to support values by making a rapid
reduction of stocks. Spot cotton was bloc
| lower"
