Hubbard. Price & Co cotton circular says:
| Rather to the surprise of operators, the Liver
pool market showed an advance this morning
on yesterdays prices, with the result of favor
ably influencing quotations here. futures al
the opening call were about 4Q5 points over
those of asst nights prices, and the gain during
the day has been gradual but constant, with the
close about HOE points over the opening. Inc
foremost feature of the situation in etfectlng
the advance has, of course, been the light re
ceipts at southern ports, and II is becoming
very pertinent question as to where Liverpool
will get her necessary supply from now untli
Nov. l, however large the American crop may
ultimately prove to be. The report of the
Georgia Agricultural Commissioner. showing
decline of 4 per cent. In the condition OF the
crop, also factor not without effect in
bringing about the advance. The demand for
spot cotton seems active, and the remnant of
the old stock here is fast passing into consump-
ton at full prices.

CHICAGO, Sept. 6.-The situation in wheat
this morning was about this: The bears who
have lost money for month fighting the ad-
vance were afraid to sell what they considered
too dear wheat short, while the bulls who be
lieve in still higher prices were in shape to allow
| a further reaction in order to buy cheap wheat
still cheaper. Cables quoted spot and futures
| quiet and unchanged. The first hour was see
saw with prices both above and below closing
prices last night. December touched 9314c and
then jumped to 94Llc, returning TO 9issc about
noon. October sold at 951zc and May gH01
9s7kc. acting very closely with December. Wheat
was unusually strong at the close, when Deem
her touched 9iI6c and closed, but split under.
