The SUMS cotton review says: Futures
opened with sharp advance, lost most of the
improvement, partially recovered, closing quiet
at SOL points advance from Saturdays final
prices. Liverpool reported an advance In that
market Of 4-6i05-64d, to which we made a
partial response OF 40D6 poiOts or only about
one-third OF tue improvement in Liverpool.
Free selling followed, bulls realizing under the
estimates of large receipts at New Orleans to-
morrow. Fresh strength appeared when it
was seen that the southern spot markets were
more active, including sales of 1900 bales at
| New Orleans. There were also reports of
| drought from various parts Of the south. The
| recovery, however, was only slight, and not
sustained with much spirit. There was good
| buying for January but August was the most
| active month. Spot cotton was quiet"
