Cotton

The effect of yesterdays news seemed
moro conflicting or confusing than other
wise on sentiment in the cotton market
and business remained quiet with 1uctua-
tions lrregu uar. An early decline was fol-
lowed by rather sharp rallies on bullish
crop reports which carried prices into new
high ground for the movement, but the
Improvement was not. sustained, and the
market closed steady, net unchanged to 4
points lower. After selling at 31T0 early,
highest price reached since the break to
29.92 a week ago last Monday, and closed
at S2.01. AS expected It has been decided
to make Saturday an extra Exchange holI-
day, and the approach OF the three-day
adjournment had a restricting influence on
business
Nervousness over unsettled labor condi-
tions in railroad circles and the steel In =
dustry, combined with easier Liverpool
cables and the weak opening OF the stock
arllct, was considered the chief factor on
the early decline. The market opened to
Is points lower and before the end OF the
morning sold 35 to II points below Tues
days closing figures under scattering
liquidation and local pressure Some SELL
ing for Southern account lso reported
the market turned tirmer during the af
tcrnoon on the steadlsr ruling of sterling
exchange and private crop report, MAX
ing the condition 81. l., against 6t.4 two
weeks ago. and 6S.S toward the END or
last month.
Exports for the day were 27.7Ss bales
making 42s So5 so far this season against
22S,247 last year. The steadier ruling Of
sterling exchange attributed partly
to smaller offerings OF cotton bills re-
fectng the recent lull in export demand.
