staple stifFened a little to-day.
Cotton receipts here are now SJl2
bales in excess Of last year at this date.
The agricultural report from Wash
ington indicate a total cotton crop Of
100000 bales, but many believe it
will exceed that estimate from quar-
ter 10 a half million. 1t is the earliest
gathered crop since 1874, and the
yield is less to the acre than that Of
the year named.
Our stock of cotton continues to &C
cumulate, and is now close to a hum
bred thousand bales. Many holders
are short Of funds, and have ridden
the banks heavily.
An advance of Lid on futures in
Liverpool since yesterday, with firm
