NEW YORK. Jan. .!

There was no feature to the trading
al the opening OF the cotton market and
the tone was easier, with prices to 10
points net lower. Operators generally
attributed the trining losses to poor
cables from Liverpool, in the absence OF
any other incentive.
Liverpool, spot houses and trade IN
tarests were moderate buyers. but the
sunply coming from Wall street and
local operators was more than sufficient
to take of the demand. Commission
houses had orders on both sides, prob
ably selling on balance.
1t was cold again this morning in the
west and southwest but in the central
and eastern portions Of the belt tenn
peratures were nearer normal for this
season with light scattered precipitation.
