The Suns review: Cotton declined 70
points. recovered the loss. but later re-
acted. and closed easy AT a net decline
OF TO II points. with sales OF LOO bales.
To-days features: The Liverpool news
to-day was disappointing. Prices there
advanced. TO be sure. but the improve
ment was regarded as an inadequaV re-
Spouse TO the sharp rise there yesterday.
and even most OF the carly advance there
was lost before the close. Besides, Liver
pool sold, selling orders were received
from the Continent. and local operators
realized on yesterdays advance. SO
prices slowly receded At the decline
shorts covered and there was a fair
amount OF new buying for local account.
The loss was all recovered. and in some
instances prices advanced a point. But
before the close German bears ham,
mered and once more prices weakened
and declined, closing at about the lowest
figures of the day. New Orleans was
lower, crop movement was rather heavy.
and spot markets I'm this country were
less active than OF late.
