The cotton market dad not recover from
it's weak spell today. but on the contrary
made a further decline. Liverpool fu-
lures lost Sis-6i to 4Ih-6iu, New York IL
to 10 points and New Orleans 10 points
The decline is attributed to the moderate

fcpeted stocks and the tact that prices
are now a fraction lower than they were
"A month ago and fully l cent per pound
below the quotations ruling at this time
last year. Manufacturers claim, however.
that they find 1t impossible to advance
cotton goods anywhere IN the neighbor-
hood OF prices commensurate with the
rates on the raw material.
