COTTON FUTURE
TRADE EASIER

NEW YORK, Dec. II GN.S).
Cotton futures were somewhat
easier today, but price recess
sions were restricted by continued
good support from domestic trade
sources.
Contracts were supplied by spot
houses, locals and the South.
while commission houses and the
domestic trade were lined on the
buying side.
The New York Cotton Ex-
change Service reported today
that domestic cotton consump-
ton was fairly we'll maintained
during November, although it
was lower than in October, while
exports of cotton from the
United States continued small in
comparison with recent years.
The stock of cotton in all hands
in this country at the end Of
November. the report stated, was
considerably below that on the
corresponding QaIe III recent
previous years.
Domestic cotton mills con-
sumed 477,OOO bales of all kinds
Of cotton during November,
against $4,000 in october and
476,OOO in November, 1898. The
decline of $4,000 bales from Oc-
tober to November, the service
pointed out, was partly due to
the fact that there were fewer
working days in the latter month.
and partly due to the fact that
the daily rate of consumption de-
clined slightly.
Around the noon hour, futures
were off / to 3 points. March
was off at 1888, July off l at
1888, and October off 3 at 1910.
