 Now Orleans. February T.-Cotton fu- lures opened steady at decline of to points. Liverpool futures were not as high as due by about points. After the call the ring was dull, some futures sell ing orders came on the market and ring | scalpers also traded on the short side, causing a decline of to points in the | old crop months in the first half hour or trading. The new crops were wholly neglected. The weather map showed cold and wet weather in nearly all portions of the belt, but the precipitation in Texas, where 1t was badly needed, was not enough to have much effect on the mar ket.
 Toward the middle of the morning the old crop months stood points down com pared with yesterdays closing. and the | rCmor went out that some big trader was quietly selling out. When the market | looked as if it would weaken under this | story spot brokers coming in from sam pie rooms brought the news of good spot inquiry and reported sales of 15o0 bales from factors tables. This immediately gave the market better tone, and prices rose until just before noon they were to points over yesterdays closing and Il to 12 points up from the lowest of the day. At noon the market was quiet and steady at a net advance of to points.
 In the afternoon session considerable weakness developed in the old crops as the result of selling by both sides. and prices fell until they were A to 2S points down from the top and IS to 21 under | yesterdays closing. Selling began soon after the noon hour and reached it's height after the posting of the weekly statistics. Ring traders went short heavily on the small mill takings for the week 21so00 bales against 305.ooo this week last year and S10.00o two years ago. The market had O wea4 undertone up to tho closing. which was steady at a net decline of IS to 20 points on the old crops and Il points on October.
