SMALL CHANGE IN
PRICE OF COTTON
Evening-Up by Shorts and De-
mand for New Crop Held
List Steady.

NEW YORK. Feb. lin sympathy
with narrow trading in Liverpool and
disappointing cables. the local cotton
market opened inactive to-day, with
first prices l to points lower than
tuesdays close. The only feature of
the opening was the buying of new
crop positions by ring scalpers. The
selling was somewhat light, coming
mostly from the uptown crowd There
was an absence OF aggressiveness on
either side and consequently fuctua-
lions We're within a narrow range.
Sentiment continues bearish. but trad
ers predict a better tone soon because
of the scarcity of cotton,
Shorts covering over Thursdays hol-
iday furnished virtually the so support
OF the market during the early ses-
sion.
The market was featureless during
the afternoon session, with the eXcep-
ton of scattered buying by spot people
and demand for summer positions. This
held the list steady around last nights
ing orders, while the ring stood looking
on, having evened up over the holiday
during the initial trading.
At the close the market was teady,
with prices at net advance of to I
points from the closing quotations of
Tuesday.
