COTTON MARKET STEADY:
OPERATORS HELD OFF
European Selling Orders Caused
Scattering Pressure

NEW YORK, March 3.-The political
situation was the predominating infu-
ence on the Cotton Exchange this morn
ing. While sentiment was mixed, how.
ever, 1t was noted that some of the i'm
portant traders who recently were ex-
tremely bearish were not so decided in
their views. The opening tone was
steady. with prices 2 points lower to 2
points higher With the exception of
some buying by Liverpool of October and
selling of May by spot interests, the trad
ing was without feature.
There appeared TO be a tendency TO
hold off on the part of many of the recent
active operators. Whatever demand there
was on the call was easily supplied and
some Increase in the selling later caused
losses OF to points from the initial
levels.
The market worked off to a net loss of
about to points during the middle of
the morning. The relatively easy ruling
OF New Orleans and the appearance of
small European selling orders around the
local ring seemed TO promote some scatter
ing pressure and the decline carried July
contracts Off to 1167, or about l2 points
under the best price reached in yesterdays
rally. The selling was not active. how
ever, and the market ruled fairly steady,

travelling man of a local firm, who has
just returned from a trip through the
Eastern belt. says he found crop prepara-
tons well advanced. although the rains
recently have checked work.
There seemed TO be little Improvement
In the general volume of business, but
the market showed a steadier tone dur
ing the early afternoon. Political adyices
from Washington appeared to receive a
favorable Interpretation and some of the
early sellers were credited with covering
on the rally which carried the active
months some 2 to 4 points net higher.
The advance also was encouraged by the
steadier tone OF New Orleans and the
more favorable average of the little spot
news that appeared TO be reaching here
from the South, but sentiment was still
more or less unsettled and people around
the ring said they saw little indication of
fresh buying for long account.
