WEEKLY COTTON REPORT.

New York, Jan. 10.-Cotton has de-
clined during the past week under
more or less general linuidatiOn, with
active spring deliveries selling about
$3.50 per bale undcr the high records
Of last month There has been a good
deal OF trad buying on q scale down,
part of which at least, is believed to
have reflected calling" by spinneFs
but no general demand has developed.
and while values at the close Of bust
ness today loE-ed moderate rallies,
sentiment appeared Of q decidedly
bearish average. Southern advices
have indicated Very little disposition
on the part of the spot holders to meet
the break in futures. but the recent
advance in January here Is now said
to have attracted shipments Of from
$4,000 to $4,000 bales from the south
for contract delivery. and the reports
Of a continued slack Spot demand,
combined with tn. nearer approach OF
the planting season have encouraged
Increased confidence in predictions OF
ultimate selling pressure from primary
sources, which are still supposed TO
be holding four million bales or over.
The decision of the Supreme court IL
TIE cotton pool case OF 1910, seemed
to add to the nervousness of the scat
