May sold off to 18.32 and October to 17.92, or about 5 to 8 points below yesterday close. . The decline was supposed to re- flect a renewal of liquidation or realiz- ing, attributed partly to the recent eas- | ing of the technical position and pros- pects for warmer weather in the South. There was a little trade buying at the decline, which, with covering, was suffi- clent to steady prices and cause rallies {of a few points from the Jowest by the | end of the first hour. | Liverpool was about as due on the | New York decline of yesterday. Private cables said hedge selling and liquida- tion had been absorbed by trade calling | and covering, ‘with Manchester report- ing a broadening demand for cotton | cloths from China and yarn sales in ex- cess of production. The rally from the early decline car- ||| ried the market up to 1845 for May i|| «nd 18.08 for October, or about 8 to 10 Offerings increased somewhat at these figures, and the market became quiet, prices casing off several points ander renewed liquidation. At midday May was selling around 18.34, with active months generally about net un- |::mn¢ed to 3 points lower. A i %) NATIONAL LEAD EARNINGS.
