DECLINE IN PRICES NOT MARK ED BY SENSATIONS AS DuR-
 ING THE SuLLY DEAL.
No Apparent Change in Business Con- ditions to Warrant the Slump, Which Came from the
 Bull Clique.

New York Jan. 12.-There was a further big break in the cotton mar ket today, making the third sensations al slump in prices since the move ment started early last week.
 Panic stricken longs in all parts of the world seemed to be liquidating their cotton regardless of prices, and the action of the market showed such intense excitement and demoralization as finds a parellel only in the series of sensational movements following the collapse of the Sully boom.
 For more than year the cotton market has been steadily advancing and toward the end of last month prices had reached a level which. since the Civil War, had only been equalled when Sully was at the top Of his fame, March selling at 16.f7c and May 16.46c. But at the culminat- ing point of today's decline. March sold at 1460c and May IA 7Sc, loss from the high record of from $7,S5 10 sS.40 per bale, most all of which has occurred during the last week.
 Tine declines from the closing price of last night amounted to more than $3.50 per bale.
 There does not appear to have been any change in general trade conditions to warrant the almost unprecedented slump in prices, and in contrast to the Sully year, no financial difficult ties have been precipitated
 It is apparent, however, that one' after another of the big bull cliquea1 which had been organized ind 3lfd. ently during the progress of AE big bull market have been liqui}4Iing.
 Possibly the selling mesysnyent was originally due to an eIbrt to obtain profits on long lines, 9wing to the ap- proach of the new plsHting season and expectations of greatly increased area while the absence of any speculative short interest left the market with very little support
 It was reported today that spinners were buying more freely in the south and late advices from the leading southern spot markets show no ma terial weakness.
