The cotton market opened with some
thing OF a bull flourish, but closed with
bears holding the better position. In
sympathy with a better feeling at Liver
pool and with port receipts promising 10
fall considerably below early estimates.
the market opened at an advance or Su4
points Covering by shorts few buying
orders from abroad, and investment de-
mand sent prices several points higher,
but later the gain was supplanted by a
slight net loss, with buyers or the nrst
hour conspicuous as sellers.
Reports that perfect weather conditions
prevailed in nearly all sections OF the
cotton belt; that picking was rapidly pro-
crossing from the Carolinas 10 Texas:
that damage by worms and shedding was
lessening. and that holders OF spot cot.
ton were accepting lower prices, all led
TO selling and inspired further accumu-
lation of short accounts. Shorts were In
clined to proceed cautiously early In the
afternoon, inasmuch as rumor had II that
the weekly bureau report would be IeM
favorable than generally expected. Inc
receipt OF this statement, however indi-
Gated quite a marked change for the bet
ter in the situation in the cotton belt
during the past week, and II therefore
fell fat as an influence. The market
closed barely steady at net loss or TO
4 points.
