The early weakness was due to lower
cables, and reports from the South that
spot cotton was being freely offered, and
farmers were demoralized. Private ca

was due almost entirely to troubles over
Turkey. There was considerable press
ure, and the market further weakened
on liberal outside offerings.
Towards noon the market rallied, and
weak holders appeared to be pretty well
eliminated.
