New York, January 13.-(Special)
Opening about points decline, tho
market showed the good undertone
which was apparent yesterday and rail-
lied easily, establishing a good advance
from the lowest figures and an I'M
provement over the close of yesterday.
During the earlier hours selling by
spot houses seemed in evidence but the
local. trade finding some spinning do
mand. proceeded to cover earlier sales
with the usual result of decreasing the
offerings There Is not much feature be-
yond the improved tone.
Liverpool reports a good feeling on
the continent and as repeatedly stated
the edge is off the selling side here for
the present. New crop acreage will
shortly be a feature and the consump-
ton th1s season promises to equal II not
exceed that of last.
Shorts run quickly and the market Il
