NEW YORK, Jan. 25.-Tightness in the
January position, due to nervous demand
from shorts. rather than to any extra
effort on the part of the bulls. was easily
the feature of to-day's deEelopments on
the Cotton Exchange. AT best Specuia-
ton was very small and quite OF a pro-
fessional turn. There was not much IN
the way of news, and not until the jan
uary deal began to work 1tseit out was
there any important changes in values.
On the call the opening was heavy With
prices unchanged to 3 points lower Cow
erinS soon restored the entire list TO iast
nights basis. The current month shorts
were made extremely unasy by talk OF
small lin sight for the week and higher
prices in Southern markets. a turn to
cover was soon decided upon, and Tor the
rest of the afternoon buying by January
shorts was the feature of the business
done.
From outward appearance January
longs made no effort to place their op-
ponents at a disadvantage. Ten cents was
soon reached and later 1910. This adj
vance caused the rest of the list to inn
prove sharply. = few moderate buying
orders from the South and an advance Of
u in spot cotton has helped the market.
At times the market was STEADY with
prices 8 to . points higher. with the ex-
ception of February. which was nomi-
nally points net lower
