Southern Spots Officially Unchanged.
Continued Reports of Poor Seed
and of Agitation for Re-
duced Acreage.

New York, January 29-The cotton mar
ket was lower during the days trading,
with business quiet and the close steady
at a net decline of to II points. Sales
for the dav were estimated at 1000 bales.
The opening was steady at a decline of
3 to points. in response to lower ca
bles than expected with February rela-
lively weak as a result of a few no.
tees, which. however, were soon absorbed
and had no effect on the general mar
ket.
Liverpool seemed to be selling the new
crop months here against purchases in
the English market and this caused the
loss of 2 or 3 points of the recently ae-
qured new crop premium in the local
market, in spite of the lower estimate
for tomorrow's receipts at Houston, con-
tinued reports of poor seed and reports
of agitation in the south for a reduced
acreage.
Trading was very quiet here during the
forenoon but prices added slightly to
the early loss and in the early afternoon
selling by some of the room bears
caught a few stop-loss orders on the

low as 3. 40, closing at 9.S9 bid
Closing prices generally were at the
lowest level of the session, although the
tone was steadied by covering at the de-
cline. Southern spot markets as officially
reported were generally unchanged. Elk
ports continued heavy but some traders
expect falling off in the forward move
ment and the filling of January engage
ments
Receipts at the ports, 81, 422 bales,

imports, 1900 bales. American markets,
however, ruled. comparatively steady aft.
err opening somewhat lower than the close
of yesterday estimates for tomorrow's
recipes at Houston being of more mod
crate proportions, $500 to $500, against

Later in the day values ruled steadier
on an official dispatch from the superin-
tendent of the Savannah cotton exchange
to Secretary Hester reporting the dis
covery of a minus correction in Savan-
nah's stock of 44,213 bales.
Ordinarily such a correction would have
been reflected in an advance in prices OF
about 20 points, but in this instance 1t
virtually fell fiat for the want of out
side interest In the market
There is SO much discussion going on
in the south detrimental to the interest
of the market, and indirectly to the farm
er, by people who profess to know what
they are talking about. yet have not the
least conception OF modern matheds of
trading in cotton and the rules which
govern same. that such agitation is doins
more harm than good to the southern
people than Is generally imagined.
OF all factors in the markets of the
world. nothing is feared by European
spinners, and by American consumers for
that matter, more than is the speculative
proclivities of the American public, es-
pecially the operators In cotton in the
south, and while the present large crop,
probably 100000 bales or more has not
their influence in the past has been felt
more than once particularly whenever
there was a possibility to advance prices
ON prospects OF consumption overtaking
production.
The interest Of the producer could not
be protected any better than ii is in the
New Orleans market, and the leading ex-
change of the south should receive the
undivided support of the whole southern
country,
