EARLY GAIN LOST IN COTTON CLOSE Spot Interests Join Bears in Hammering Prices After a Substantial Advance. NEW YORK. Oct. s.—Covering for the week-end caused the cotton market to open firm today with first prices ranging 1 to 4 points over last night’s close. After the call spot houses began io sell freely, but the ring crowd readily absorb all of ferings and prices made a further upward move in most active positions of 5 to 10 points. The weather map indicated very unfavorable conditions over Sunday. l.ater during the short session a dis position rested among the ring crowd to sell on the advance, as there was a dif ference of opinion among traders as to the weather. Large spot interests were heavy buyers throughout the day, but the realizing pressure was in excess of the aggressive movement and prices at the close of the market was steady with prices a net decline of 6 to 11 points from the final quotations of Friday.

North western receipts were larger and this cut some figure in the matter of price mak ing. Wheat prices showed losses of % to 1c today and the feeling was weak at the recessions. New buying power must be seen in order to keep this market above present price levels, as the offerings con tinue big every time a bulge Is seen.
