THE UNDERTONE WAS WEAK
Speculative Influences Pure and Simple Ruled the Day-Cables Showed Advance in Futures, Which
 Was Disappointment

New York, March 1.-The opening of the cotton market was a tame affair, the tamest of weeks, if not of months. Cable showed 12-S2 on near positions, and l 12-32 advance on futures which was a distinct disappointment. The local market opened at log points down, chiefly on the near po- sitons. These were dominated by specula- tive influences, pure and simple. Trading small and undertone weak.
 During the first hours trading, May, the focus interest at present, opened at 9.5S it closed at 9.59 yesterday-sold to 9.54 and off to 9.52; the latter was the trading level al Il o'clock. August, which closed yester- day at 942 opened at $940 and sold off to 9.35, while December, the next in success sion of the speculative favorites, sold at TSP 47S3 yesterday. At the best it was a slow featureless situation. Outside business was not a factor. The market for future closed steady, with prices net 1 point higher to ' points lower.
