NEW YOIIK, Dec. 7. Trading wns small
' on the Cotton Kxchango this morning. Tha
tono at tho start was considered steady In
view of a rather sharp decline In Liverpool.
Price hero showed losses of 4 to 7 points.
There was somo hedge selling, but It wus
hot significant and a southern commission
house sold. Tho buying was small, somo
local commission houses taking small
amounts and Will street and Liverpool alio
purchasing moderately.
At the tlmo of tho start hero Liverpool
v Was 3 to H points net lower, tho distant
r "Kinonth" being the weakest. Prices were duo
,v 'to'como 2 to 3 points net higher.
. ' Private cables sold there was Continental
and local selling abroad.
The Liverpool selling here during the
first hour was established at about 25,000
bales, nnd seemed to bo largely rcsponslhla
for a decline of 12 or 13 points from Inst
night's closing figures.
As the price approached 20a for January
support became mora aggressive, howover,
nnd tho market firmed up after 11 o'clock
On covering and renewed buying hy somo
of the more prominent operators of yes
terday. The rally carried nctlvo months back to
or a shade over last night's closing figures,
and there may have been buying on rumors
that a bullish prlvnto crop estimate would
bo published by a Chicago authority at
' midday.
The late forenoon advance carried the
market about 3 to 6 points net higher.
Thero was western buying, which may have
been Inspired by the Clement Curtis esti
mate, placing the crop at 10,889,000 bales
' of BOQ pounds, excluding llnters, and the
production of llnters nt 300,000 bales.
Support also cams from some of yester
day's mora prominent buyers, but the de
mand tapered oft above 20.60a for May, and
prices showed slight reaction! early In the
noon hour.
