NEW YORK. November with the
New Orleans Cotton Exchange closed,
there was disposition to be cautious in
this market. Few orders came from the
South 1t was also reported that holders
of spot cotton in the South were making
stand against any further decline, and
that they were refusing to follow to-day's
decline in futures. Our market opened
steady, with prices unchanged to points
under yesterdays final figures, and later
with what seems further decline OF 243
points. The weakness was due to the IN
dcatiOns Of a very heavy movement OF
cotton-oil all over the South, supplement-
ing disappointing cable accounts from the
English market There was bearish con-
struction placed upon the fact that spot
sales at Liverpool had reached only 1000
bales. Notwithstanding the reduction in
spot prices. making the figure Sd. fer
middlng uplands, which many have
claimed would be the turning point, when
English spinners would become very
heavy buyers, in anticipation Of their
wants for the remainder of the season.
The superb weather prevailing in the
cotton belt furnished another feature Of
weakness, and for a time local dealers
showed tendency TO pound the market
with energy. The movement In this d.
recton soon petered out, as the market
without any special buying in sight, show
ed considerable resistance. In the after
noon the phases of the market were in
holders favor. but the chief demand con-
tinued TO come from shorts. The market
closed steady at a net gain OF l to 3
points.
