The suns cotton review saws: Futures
opened firmer, and there was some further im-
provement, which was pretty well maintained
in the closing figures. The sources of strength
we're slightly better foreign advices, including
a large spot business at Liverpool, reduced
movement of the crop and stronger southern
markets. The advance brought out some long
cotton, but not enough to cause any decided
reaction. Weather reports from the south we're
generally favorable"
