In the Cotton Market

NEW YORK, Feb. 17.—The cotton market bad a steady opening today, with first prices 3 to 8 points higher on Liverpool and spot house demand, but soon turend easier under southern and YVall street selling. Liverpool also became a seller later and by the end of the first quarter of an hour quotations showed net losses of half a dozen points. Wall street men now at winter resorts are credited with furnishing many of the selling orders. The Liverpool market was slightly betttr than has been due at the hour of the local start, but a private cable stated that there was fear of another labor disturbance In the coal industry, and this prcbably was responsible for some of the Liverpool selling here.

GRAIN PRICES GO LOWER Market Unsettled With Selling by Commission Houses. CHICAGO, Feb. 17. —Grain prices were lower on the Chicago Beard of Trade today. The mark® was unsettled with considerable selling by commission houses. Cold weather prevailed over the wheat belt and no snow of any consequence was reported. Provisions were lower. March wheat opened up %c at $171%. but dropped 2%c later. May wheat opened at $1.62%, up lcf" dropping 2%c before the close. May corn opened up %c at 71%e, dropping l%c before the close. July corn, at <3%c, opened up 2%c, losing l%c subsequently. -nay outs opened up %c at 46%c, lost l%e in later trading. July oats opened at 46%c, off %e, and lost an additional %e later. (By Thomson A McKinnon) —Feb. 17Wheat —There being no developments of a nature to suggest a lower trend in the wheat market, yesterday's action inav be construed as simply the acceptance ol profits by previous buyers. The pres ence of green bugs lu large numbers in the extreme Southwest and their appearance in new sections is confirmed by State authorities. However, there is a disposition to await further developments before becoming \ alarmed. The tenor of the foreign news shows a complete change to the extent that Broomhall notes decreasing stocks anil the likelihood of small reserves everywhere at the end of the crop year. No export business is reported as closed but Greece is in quiring for a lot and there is a moderate business doing in flour. The close exhaustion of surpluses in exporting countries makes the market particularly sensitive to the outlook for the growing crop. It is. of course, impossible to gatber any intelligent idea but it should he kept in mind that the mildness of the season has forced an easy growth and permitted more than the usual infestation of insects. Excepting this crop condition and the small oalanee of wheat it would seem that the best argument lies with the holder. Coarse Grains—The action of wheat has had moderate effect in corn and oats, but there seems underlying independent strength gathered probably from the indications of a decreasing movement from the country. A fair export business is still being dons in corn but little, if any, improvement in the domestic inquiry for either corn or oats. In the event of a higher range of values in wheat coarse grains will sympathize. Even if there be no advancing tendency there is considerable evidence that markets have discounted the former reasons for the declining tendency. Provisions—WeakneSs In bogs and no. tlon of grains brought a few realizing sales in provisions. Cash meats are firm and one-half to three-quarters of a rent higher. Sentiment is inclined to be more friendly. CHICAGO GRAIN TABLE. —Feb. 17WHEAT— Open. High. Low. Close.
