The SUMS cotton report says: Futures
opened at points advance closing steady at
GOA points decline from yesterdays closing
prices. There was Bunabysh temper among
the bulls on our Cotton Exchange to-day. They
we're disposed to ask questions: If slupe don't
spell sloop, what in thunder does it spellY' was
Bunabys query. If stronger Liverpool, better
Manchester bad crop accounts and reduced
port receipts won't put up cotton, what willg
asked the bulls. Many Of them requested to be
asked something easier, and took advantage OF
an early rise to sell out. Still, none but the
most chronic bears dare keep short over
night. The market has in the past few days
gradually gotten long 1t to-day lacked the
! support of an active trading short interest
Large receipts at the interior towns, some Is
per cent. over last years, came in later as a
depres ing influence. Southern letters continue
to be filled with bad crop accounts; but the
market begins to feel the weight of bales
100000 bales in stock at the beginning Of Octo-
Der, with no urgent demand for it, is not an
, encouraging fact to the bulls. Spot cotton
