without special feature, other than the re-
markable steadiness of prices under the
pressure of a large liquidation and con-
siderable hammering by the bear houses.

days bureau report. Liverpool was but
slightly changed. and our market opened
about points lower. January sold on the
call at $3.50, rallied to 902c, and f1uctu-

bears raided the market and January
closed at S.97GS9Sc, with the tone barely
steady The New England mills were buy
ing cotton freely at full prices to-day
Opinions seemed about evenly divided as

weaken, but nobody seems to be willing
TO sell cotton short until the bureau fig
