NEW YORK, January 11.-There was
very fair speculative business IN cotton
futures. The early market was weaker.
under a brisk selling movement in good
part for realizing on long contracts, and
on foreign selling orders following UNI
satisfactory cables. For a time the dis
position TO take profits was quite gene
raj. The opening call developed barely
steady feeling at decline OF points
Their decline of 3l4 points. Engl h selling
orders were a feature. The selling Tor
Eng ish account was partly against pur-
chases made at home partly to secure
profits but also, II was Claimed IN the
nature Of manipulation in the interest OF
exporters, VINO, by means or depressing
the New York market, hoped to secure
a better buying basis in spot supplies IN
the South. AT the weakest interval the
market showed a loss of TO 9 points.
In view of the heavy pressure brought
to bear against the market, the extent
Of the decline was regarded as remark
ably small and indicative Of inherent
strength. Wall Street was again good
buver; other outside parties sent buying
orders and the weakness OF the 1ore-
noon was followed by more substantial
conditions in the afternoon, the market
railving GG7 points from the lowest level.
The better feeling was increased by re-
ports from the South claiming American
SINNERS were absorbing everything or
fered at yesterdays advance. In add ton
to this bullish influence, the weather FORE
cast helped, as IL Indicated continued Dad
weather for the cotton belt for some
tine TO come Selling orders appeared
rom The south at the close, and started
selling in a small way under Wncn
pr.ces broke 10 the lowest point closed
