There was no change in the
price of local cotton Thursday. At

NEW YORK — The Continued

terially stlmulai.ie demand at the
owning of the cotton market here
Thursday. First prices were un
charged to 19 points higher with
tho tone steady, but tt^here was a
good deal of scattering realizing
and probably some selling for a
reaction, 'while there was demand
leported less activo. Prices soon
eased off in consequence with
March selling off to 28.53 and
May to 28.72 ^>r about $$W*7 to 18
points net lower on the more ac
tive old crop postion. There were
reports ofi a continued strong
market for cotton goods boflAh here
and in Manchester but there has
recently been a good dal of buy
ing on such reports and the bet
ter weather ini the ^Southwest*
seemed to promote reactionary
sentiment of the prevailing level
of prices*
There were rallies from the
early decline but they met in
creased offerings as prices ap
proached yesterday’s closing quo
tations during the middle of the
morning. The market eased off
