COTTON SACS ON
LACK OF SUPPORT
No Special Feature-Sentiment
Against an Advance Just Now,
Despite Strong Spots.

NEW YORK, Feb. 3.-Southern and
Continental buying was responsible for
a firm tone in the cotton market at
the opening to-day and first prices
were 2 TO points higher than Mon
days final Spot interests were also
buyers, but trading was not heavy
enough to cause any great changes in
prices.
After the call new low quotations fol-
the downward movement were esIab-
lished under persistent selling, which
was attributed to number of spot
houses, the ring and hedge selling by
the South. There was no particular rea-
son for the bearish move and it APP
peared to be on technical professional
conditions. May broke to 12.25, June to
1905. while July touched 1875. During
the forenoon there was a brisk demand
on covering of shorts and the market
recovered a few points of the decline.
The trade is watching the spot situa-
ton with keen eye and hope for some
new developments that will create a re-
vlVal of speculation an dan upward re-
dictionary movement. A number of mes
sages received from the South to-day
Indicating continued inquiry for the
actual by mills and exporters offset re-
ports of a let-up in demand.
There was some nervousness apparent,
owing to the February revise on meet
ing tomorrow on differences in grades
However, on change of consequence is
expected, owing to the fact that South
ern spot markets show the differences
between grades to average about the
same as New York's existing on and off
values above and below middling.
At the close the market was steady,
with prices at a net decline of to 5
points, except February, which was 8
points higher than the closing quota
lions of Monday.

ouiry into the methods of business of

shows in Missouri to have them I'M

Bryan had informed Carranza OF their
attitude In the exchange of notes through
George G. Carrothers, State Department
representative. This was stated exclu-
sively in the dispatches printed In THE
SuN in April.
Carrothers and villa are close friends.
Carrothers is able to influence Villa
largely In foreign matters, and the United
States In said to consider that 1t would
be well to have Carranza eliminated.
This belief has gained currency among
many of Carranza's friends and closest
supporters, and while they have in the
past attempted to- make Il appear that
Carranza and villa were in thorough
accord, many now appear anxious to
have the world know the real situation
in anticipation OF any move adverse to
Carranza on the part OF the United
States.
The fact that villa is quoted in Wash
ington dispatches to-day as agreeable to
whatever conclusion may he reached by
the mediators leads friends OF carranza
to believe that Villa is being sounded as
to his position preliminary to receiving
recognition from the United States in
case Carranza continues obdurate and
villa should be successful at Zacatecas.
