New York, May 20.-The cotton market
opened STEADY with prices five points
higher to one point lower following which
there was a sharp break under realizing
by room longs and pressure from Wall
Street bear interests The early stability
was in keeping with better class OF
Liverpool cables than expected, light re-
ceipts throughout the belt and reports
that SPOT cotton South was in better de-
mand at improving prices. Claims that
the recent rains south had done great
good and that clearing weather was now
i'm store combined with weak late Liv-
crpool cables and helped 10 force the
market back. But later it became clear
TO all that the demand from spot cot
ton houses. exporters and New England
spinners for the immediate positions was
growing and that a formidable short ac-
count remained unprotected helped to
encourage buying for tuin. As the az
ternoon progressed prices erept steadily

were reported as steady and generally I'M

NEW ORLEANS COTTON.
New Orleans. La. May 20.-There was
nothing doing in spot cotton today. Quo
tations were lie lower.
Futures, after opening at level that
was from unchanged to :; points up,
drifted along within remarkably narrow
limits with but little activity on either
side. July was about the only position
that was traded in and under a selling
movement it dropped away to $50, re-
eording a loss of points. Later in the
day a buying movement set in and the
market continued TO improve slowly to
the close, showing net gains OF the day
, of from two to six points.
