Asia Landa, 'Limited, has received the following report from their New York correspondents, E. A. Pierce & Co. The decline was comparatively orderly and nothing developed today to indicate the completion of selling or the establishment of definite resistance.
Wheat: Prices decllaed with the weakness of securities.
Cotton: Today's prices caused discouraged holders to liquidate. Technically, the market is healthier but it requires constructive develop ments to revive confidence in cotton. The lack of any definite develop- ments in the Bankhead Measure is also slackening demand for cotton goods and is having a discouraging effect on recent buyers.
Silver: Market barely steady, with prices under gradual pressure reflecting scattered liquidation for March along with commission-house. and local selling in sympathy with the easier rates ruling in London and Shanghai.
Business Done: 2,190,000 shares,
