NEW YORK, December 5.-Cotton

The opening was steady, to points

to 10 points, but there seemed to be a
little more Southern selling at the
higher prices, while prospects for clear
ing weather in the South caused eXpec-

week. This led to some week end realiz-
ing or liquidation and prices worked
back to about yesterdays closing quo

The disposition to even-up commit

been increased by the approach of the
final Government crop report for the
season, which is scheduled for publica-

trading seemed to consist largely of
technical adjust ents, with further
switching from near to late months
