COTTON IS QUIET '
ALONG THE LINE
(Bv Leased Wire to The Times)
New Orleans. April 20 The local
cotton market was very quiet today.
Buyers generally absented them
selves from sample-rooms, lacking
the incentive to tradeeven upon the
basis of a further reduction in pi ices,
and onlv an occasional small list
changed hands. The continued sus-i
pension of business on the other side
has barred the receipts of cable or
ders or .acceptances, and that fact.
combined with the existing depres-.
sion in contract values, seemed to de- WHY COHMISSIONI'II KI.AKK
