COTTON PRICES
STILL DECLINING
Record Exports from the South
Fail TO Hold Futures Mar
ket-SpotS Steady.

Reports that English and Cont
mental buyers have purchased large
quantities of cotton in the Southwest
at the prevailing low level OF prices
are now finding confirmation IN the
expanding exports Galveston alone
cleared more than $4,000 bales for
Great Britain yesterday one OF the
biggest days in the history of that
port-while total exports Of 64604
bales from al ports for the day made
the largest clearances so far reported
since the beginning of the season.
Last Saturday there were twenty-one
steamers in the harbor at Galveston,
with $4,000 bales of cotton already or
board. while seventeen additional
steamers we're expected 20 arrive
there before the end of the month,
and cotton will constitute a large part
Of their carCoes. Il is reported here
that some shippers are offering 90 pay
an ocean freight rate Of 50, and even
SO. a hundred pounds for room 10
Rremen. comparing with a normal rate
Of around 45 cents. and IL is cons d
cred probable that II Washington will
underwrite adequate insurance tho
movement may develop considerable
proportions.
These features inspired q good deal
of bullish comment i'm local circles
Yesterday. but the buying movement
is said to have slackened in the South
and The clearances failed 20 stimulate
any important demand for contracts
around the local ring. On the con-
