There was considerable selling our market this morning induced probably by the weakness of March futures in New York speculation, about the effect of March tenders in New York form, the principal object for scalpers trading. and this will probably be the case for the rest of the month.
 According to correspondence and wire news from there, traders in general look :or a decline at first on considerable amount of notices, but expect that leading people vii take of tenders after the liquida- ton of outside long accounts in March. and that crops if depressed by this March liquidation will attract substantial buying by spectators and trade
 All the hearing of the information il is not difficult to outline apoiicy for cS"ratirs in the markets during the next two weeks Until this question of March tenders ir New York Is settled there will hardly be any decided enterprise in cotton. The spot market is quiet and lower to ! sell. Some looking around, but buyers gem erally complain of the absence of new busi- i ness from abroad.
 Futures weakened in the afternoon. The l uncertainty of developments on March ten ders in New York checks bu siness and heav- i iness of the spot market here tells more plainly in consequence. While good color ed cotton holds its value all right, cotton
