On this showing there was pretty
good demand from the shorts and outside
huyinf. orders were a growing factor I'M
til a selling movement was started by par
tics wishing to secure profits on long con-
tracts, following indications OF less sta
bility at Liverpool and disappointment

Southern SPOT markets were no better,
while port receipts, estimated at the be-
ginning of the day at 1900 bales. turned
out TO be 81 s99 on a Pensacola clearance
to France OF $3.50 bales
The general volume Of business slack
ened In the afternoon. and the market
became very quiet with operations on 2

at premium of about IL over February
and March, which continued the impress
manning In January with some claiming
that a large amount OF cotton remains to
be covered before February LIST. Public
speculation continues In the buying line.
