Hubbard Price & Co. s cotton circular says:
Trading while considerable in volume, has
ben without any special features, 1t being
tender DAY on November contracts. A large
number or notices were IN circulation but they
seem to have been provided for without any
difficulty, No further revision of quotations is
expected Toward the close a rather firmer
feeling prevailed, in consequence of the light
interior movement reported from the south"
