COTTON MARKETS.

NEW YORK. February 2.-The cot
ton market was easier during today's
early trading. Evidently the rally of
yesterday had eased the technical po-
sition and the opening was barely
steady at a decline of 5 to 19 points,
owing to lower Liverpool cables. real
izing and Liverpool. continental and
southern selling. There was a little
trade buying and some further cover
ing, but it was not sufficient to hold
the market and prices soon showed
net losses of 20 to "a points. with May
selling at 1926 and July at 1882. Pri-
vate cables reported liquidation and
very little buying power.

BY GUY ROCKWELL.

Special Dispatch to The star.
CLEVELAND. February 2.-Busi-
ness in this section, as reflected In the
debts to individual bank accounts,
has been slower in the last week.
These debts fell off about $40.O00,000.
The dullness Is attributed largely to
lethargy in the steel business. which
has been more pronounced in the last
week in northern Ohio than earlier in
the year. Sheet mills in the Mahoning
valley. after operating for four weeks
on a SO per cent basis, have dropped
to IS per cent and buying continues
of the hand -to-mouth order. Prices,
however, have been unchanged.
More encouragement is felt among
the pottery manufacturers. Aided by
the annual exhibit at Pittsburgh, sur
ficient orders for tableware have come
into place business considerably anead
of its position in the corresponding
period last year. Using January as q
basis, potters predict good business
throughout the year. and reports from
East Liverpool, Salem, Carrollton, Sc
bring and Steubenville indicate plants
are operating at about 20 per cent OF
capacity.
Ohio farmers have just made new
agreement with Cleveland milk dis
tributers whereby the farmer will re-
ceive s2.15 per hundred pounds Tor
milk instead of 81. as announced IN
January. Many dairymen had threat
ened to sell their herds and close their
dairies if the 81 price were enforced.

INTEREST IN FUR SALE.

the near approach of the spring

many manufacturers. it is said, into
the market for new skins. The new
