THE MARKETS

New Orleans, Jan. IA break OF
5 to 6 dollars a bale on cotton
greeted the holiday order or the gov
eminent when the market opened to-
day. All other factors faded before
these new developments. In the
first hour of business prices fell SO
to 1T points on the most active
months under heavy liquidation and
selling for short account, inspired by
the belief that the closing of mills
would greatly curtail consumption.
Early shorts took their profits and
new buying for long account came IN
at the decline and checked 1t. The
market was also helped by reports of
q better demand for the lower grades
of spots.
No wide prices changes occurred in
the afternoon. At 1 o'clock the
active months were at net loss or
SO to SO points.
The market closed steady at a net
decline of ST TO 81 points.
