NEW YORK, March u.-The cotton market
showed renewed nervousness early today with
fIuctuati tons Irregular. Liverpool did not fully
meet the local decline of Saturday, and the
opening was steady at an advance of TO 10
points, but Nreactionary sentiment was encour-
aged by expectations of small domestic con-
sumption figures for February, and the market
eased off after the call under liquidation. May
sold off from 81 4j to 81 .35, and October from
20 so to %. 63, about 3 to points net lower,
but there was Liverpool and New Orleans buy
ing which steadied the market up several points
before the end of the first hour.
The market was quiet but steady later IN
the morning. Reports that prosperity had prac-
tically demoralized southern labor, and that 1t
was not so much the scarcity of labor as diff
ficulty in getting work done, that would oper-
ate against the coming crop seemed to be u
factor on the rally, which carried active months
- to u points net higher May sold up TO
81 IS and October to 20. 80 covering and
moderate demand from the trade.
Reports that private figues Indicated domes-
tic mill consumption of 529, 600 bales for the
month of February compared more fayora0ly
with last years consumption of 541 ia bales
than expected and were followed by furry OF
covering and trade buying during the noon hour
May. sold up to 81 10, and October to SO, or
81 to 81 points net higher but the advance was
checked at this level by realizing or renewed
liquidation and prices later showed reactions
of 10 or II points.
