MEMPHIS, TENN-Cp tton--The past week
his been one of the most active of the season. 4
arger sales have been Effected and higher phi
ces have ruled. All indications, So lar as we
aIe capable Of Judging, pre- still in fhvof Of an
upward tendency. Money, not only IN Che
United States but throughout the world, is IN
usually abundant, while the streams lourihg
from the gold mines are still unallated. We
NAV safely saw thattwo hundred millions hive
been added to the actual money wealth OF hel
World within the past twelve months, and he
additions continue 10 tlo@ upon us. The ten
lency of this must be to cheaper money while
al the Iiecessaries of life must 90 up, among.
he chief of which is cotton. This censidera-~
ion, taken in connection with the short crop,
I'D rather increased Than diminished demand ! \
Or consumption we lean see 10 good reason
Why prices should notEgd up.
