New York, June 22.-The cotton market
opened steady at an advance of 1qS points,
early cables coming better than had been
expected in view of the pronounced weak
ness developed here yesterday. 1t soon
became evident, however, that the liqui-
NbeASii VI AOilS dcCOulltSf NhiSh many
thought was practically finished on yes
terday's break, was being renewed. Au-
gust unloading became feature and most
OF the. forenoon. Augusta contracts held
a weak relation to the general market,
while showing considerable irregularity.
The general list sold off to level of $40
below the closing prices of yesterday,
when the decline was arrested by cover
ing supplemented by some pretty fair in
Vestment buying.
Good commission houses bought on the
decline. European buying, which was
considerable. was directed chiefly to the
new crop positions Some conservative
traders bought on the break on the reac
ton theory, as they considered the decline
had been TOO sharp, August contracts hav-
Ing sold down from 5.S9c Saturdays price,
TO 5.62c today while January sold from
SSc 10 SEC.
The main factor in the weakness was
the generally brilliant character of crop
accounts from nearly all sections of the
cotton belt. The saving factor In the En-
glish cable was the increased demand for
spot cotton in the Liverpool market, con
hrming the claim that raw cotton was
needed for cotton goods sod ahead. Cow
ering in the afternoon steadied the mar
het ond prices returned to the opening
Hsures. The market was finally steady at
a net gain of 1q4 points.
