ed holders were obliged TO accept low
prices for their August contracts, at
the decline. A demand from the Amer
lean spinners for cotton for immediate
consumption was again noticeable and
the sales to-day were the largest for
many months. The trade is not act
ing upon the theory that the move
ment of the crop will prevent any ma
terial immediate improvement in val
ues, Notwithstanding the injury TO the
crop which has probably reduced the
supply below the actual consumption
required.
Our market closed quiet without any
active demand for the tenders on the
early positions which was the factor in
causing the uncertainty during the af-
ternoon.
