NEW YORK, December 9.-Re- newal of hedge selling and liquidation featured the opening of the cotton market today and first prices were easy at net decline of 10 to 14 points. Failure of the crop and ginning fig- ures to bring in any buyipg power of consequence, evidently made # h fmpression on sentiment, and selling was promoted by rela- easy Liverpool cables. Except for covering or a little scale- | down buying, very little support de- veloped, and the decline extended to 11.64 for January and 12,11 for May before the end of the first hour, or about 25 to 27 points net lower The early decline was_ check covering and a little trade buy 11.63 for January and the price later rallied to 11.71 on private reports of a slightly stiffer basis for low grades in the Southwest. The volume of business tapered off on the bulge, however, and the market was quiet with fil‘flaz months still showing net )'L)Mlen of out 23 to 26 points at mid- day. New Orleans Market. NEW ORLEANS, La., December 9 (P).—Flrst trades in the cotton mar- ket here today showed losses of 14 to 17 points, which was attributed to the weuk opening tone of the market. | Liverpool cables also were lower than | due, being 8 to 9 penny points down. Hedge selling, which developed soon after the opening, caused prices to de- cline, December trading to 11.76, Jan- nary to 11.72 and March to 11.86, or 19 to 25 points under yesterday's close. Trade buying was attracted the drop and at the end of the first half-hour prices showed a tendeney ! to rally. Liverpool Quotations.
