 Futures opened steady at a decline of to points on rather disappointing ca bles so far as the Liverpool contract mar ket was concerned. It was a quiet day on the exchange with the leading bulls resting and allowing prices to sag off under the weight of considerable liquida- ton. Scalpers on the bear side seized the opportunity to trade for quick turn and their short sales increased the pressure on the market. Around noon prices re- covered few points on fresh outside buy ing, but in the afternoon session selling was again free. much of 1t coming from commission houses and prices eased off to a level of IS to IA points below yester- days final quotations. Spots refused to follow the decline in the future depart ment. Futures closed steady at a net de- cline of to 10 points.

Hubbard Bros. & Co.'s Letter

New York, April 16.-(special )-After the sudden advance and strong closing or yesterday Liverpool was bound to be olsappointing, and our market to ease on realizing sales. This was tbe co,,rse or the market today. Many who have followed the advance took their profits from the start, with the result that the market closed some 15 points lower. So slatural was the action of the market that confidence In further advance has not been shaken among the recent buy CTS, though many of the trade thought the quick advance of last evening was an indication that the market had cu- minated for the moment Acting on this theory many of the larger cotton houses were free sellers all day. Tomorrow be- ing Saturday and no heavy rainfall in sight for Texas, the market is expected to be better.
