NEW YORK, Dec. 7. Weakness in Liv
erpool cables caused the cotton market
here to open barely steady today with
first prices ranging unchanged to 4 points
lower than last night's close. Immediate
ly after the opening a general buying
movement prevailed, coming from many
different sources, which was said to have
resulted from X’eil, of London's, estimate,
placing the commercial crop at 13,!00,-
'OO bales including linters and repacks,
and after fifteen minutes, prices were 8
to 10 points better than the opening quo
tations. The selling was small and scat
tered.

COTTON.
NEW YORK, Dec. 6. —Weakness in ca
bles after a firm start resulted in the
cotton market here opening barely steady
today, with first prices a net decline of 5
to 17 joints from the closing quotations
of Thursday. Later cables showed firm
ness,.rendering a better tone to our mar
ket. ’ There was a selling pressure at
the outset by the ring crowd and commis
sion houses, which brought about a fur
ther decline of 4 to 8 points for near
months. Offerings were quickly absorbed
by the larger spot interests, which
caused a general buying movement, and
after the call prices rallied 1 to 9 points
over the opening
At the close the market was steady
with a net decline in prices of 8 to 19
points from the previous close.
