COTTON LESS ACTIVE AFTER BIG BREAK
 LOWER WEDNESDAY

New York, Feb. 5.-The cotton market was less active after the big break of yesterday and an carly de- cline was followed by rallies on covering. The general list closed firm at net advance of 10 to 20 points.
 The market opened easy and active months sold lower during the first few months of overnight selling ord CTS. Liverpool sold at the start but became an active buyer at the decline. presumably to take profits on old straddle accounts at the new wide differences between the two markets. This absorbed many of the early of ferlngs and the market turned stead Ter on covering promoted by the rally in exchange and belief that speculative that long interests had pretty well liquidated on the break of the previous day. Approximations of spot liquidation seemed to be modified to some extent by the ab- sense of any generally active south ern selling. Talk of high money rates and the unsettled tone of the stock market led to reactions during the middle of the afternoon, but the continued steadiness of foreign ex- change was a sustaining feature and the best prices of the day were made in the late trading. Private cables from Liverpool denied yesterdays rumors that England would stop inn portations of cotton, but one of them said that the basis was too high in the South to buy at present

New Orleans Cotton,

New Orleans, Feb. 5.-Renewed selling pressure was felt by cotton in the early trading today but as the market broke under it a general demand for covers came from the short side and the realizing move ment caused wide reaction. Some new demand for long account sprang up and in the second half of the session the market had very good tone. Closing quotations were at net gains for the day of 5 to IA points.
 The early selling was based on the many claims that low sterling rates were stopping the export movement of cotton from this country but as the days statistical statement de- veloped and it was seen that the ex- port movement was encouragingly large. Total clearances for foreign ports from United States ports to- day amounted to 39,002 bales against 1O,672, this day last year.
 The slight recoveries in sterling exchange itself were a help to the market. Spots were reduced 25 points, which mad middling 1925.
