The SUMS cotton review says: Futures
opened at q decline of points on near and
1@2 points on late months, closing easy at 5QD7
points decline from yesterdays closing prices.
The efforts to promote a steadier cotton market,
to check the decline in prices which have been
noted for two or three days past, came upon a
run of hard luck to-day Liverpool broke
down, and the interior movement pointed to a
large increase over last year in plantation
movement. The bulls, therefore, unloaded
with considerable freedom, and prices soon
had dropped lg7 points. Then the pressure to
sell was much less urgent, but there was very
little demand, and values made no recovery, as
is usually the case in the later dealings after a
smart decline. The bears again begin 10 talk
inside figures; yet aside from retrainIng TO
cover, they do not show very strong faith by
their works. Spot cotton was dull and weak. "
