down In the cotton market yesterday, the
decline being based on slackness In the
trade demand and anticipation of full
ginning returns in the Census Bureau re-
port. due this morning. One spot house
was credited with being a heavy seller
of late months against purchases of De-
cember, but general business was not &C
tive, and much OF the trading was in
switches, or a readjustment of commit
ments following the revision Of spot diff
ferences.' The opening advance OF to Il
points was lost during the day, although
there were moderate reactions OCCASION
ally, the close showing net loss for the
day of TO II points. Latest rumors gave
the completed returns of one of the sta
tistical bureaus as 10.3T,C00 bales ginned
to November IA. New England advices
indicated a rather more favorable turn
in the Lawrence strike, but Fall River
