THE COTTON MARKET
Near Eastern Situation Party Respon
sible for Profit .Taking at Opening
of the Market. . 1
Bt the Associated Preaa.1
New York, Nov. 0. Nervousness over
the Near Eastern situation and the
easier riding of foreign rates were
considered partly responsible for very
heavy realizing or profit taking in the
cotton market at the, opening today
The selling was very general and
heavy, and first prices were easy at a
decline, of 20 to 32 points, but offerings
were rapidly absorbed by a continued
trade and commission house demand.
with the result that the market soon
steadied up from the lowest.
Cotton futures opened easier: De
cember 25.2" ; January 24.93; March
24.70; May 24.50; July 24.15.
