The cotton markets lost some strength To-

when prices were forced up few points on
the extremely light movement
The feature which first brought about an
easier feeling was furnished by the LiNei-

mud although It. too. regain d some OF its
strength as a result OF the light movement,
1t was unable to get IN to the level OF the
last figures for Monday and its close was
at loss of to points.
There was practically no change in the
spot situation, There was DO improvement
in the demand and all OF tho markets logged
along in about the same old rut The busi-
ness done WAS not large, New orleans selling

would have struggled IN all during lar

years. They say that the position Of II
