COTTON MARKETS.
NEW YORK.

NEW YORK. January 5-There was
a good deal Of realizing in the cotton
market at the opening today. and
after starting Q points lower to 3
points higher prices sold about to s
points under the closing figures of last
night The larger spot sales at Liver
pool, and in the leading southern mar
kets at the close yesterday. attracted
considerable attention. and it was re-
ported that Russian interests had re-
Gently bought considerable cotton for
shipment during January and Febru-
ary, but sentiment around the ring
seemed to be reactionary. and there
were rumors of increased spot offer
ings from the interior.
An easier turn in the New Orleans
market probably encouraged some of
the local selling, while houses with
Wall street and western connections
seemed to be taking profits on recent
purchases and the circulation of a
few new-style January notices caused
some liquidation of the near months.
Futures opened steady as follows;
January. 7.94: March. $40: May, sal;
July. S.4S; August, 8.61; October, S72;
December, S.S5.
Liquidation was in evidence during
the entire morning, and there was some
southern selling supposed to be for
hedging account, but offerings were
well taken at some six to eight points
under yesterdays closing figures, with
the market less active and shade
steadier shortly after midday
