NEW YORK. February r Green s Cos
report ON cotton futures says There has
been good strong market and quite liberal
addition made to values. Liverpool did not
afford much encouragement, was, in fact, a
trihe slack but the home influence proved
stimulating and created buoyancy on which
10 to ii points were made, closing at about tne
highest, and very well sustained. Still bidding
and prompt taking of Offering by bu leaders
gave the first start, and much assistance was
afterward obtained by falling away of re-
ceipts, especially at interior points, causing
quite a general short covering and some little
new investments on the long SIDE py local
scalpers. Not many new orders came IN, and
during the afternoon larger bulls were
thought to be selling trifie."
