The SUMS cotton review says: Futures
opened firmly, slightly advanced, presently de-
clined, closing dull at l02 points advance from
Saturdays closing prices. The early strength
which the market exhibited was due TO the ab-
sence OF sellers. There was more talk of cold
nights at the south, seed not terminating or
| the plant not getting on well. There were con-
aFxy fau nd rhn a.
| mand that sprung up was sufficient to carry up
prices 304 points, but most of this improve
ment was lost in the last hour under selling to
realize, due to the full crop movement
especially at the interior towns. Spot cotton
was quiet"
