| New YORK, Aug. l6.-HubbArd, Price & Co.
say of the cotton market: The total receipts
of nsw cotton up to date are 9!2 bales, against
1921 last year; total receipts of both new and
old cotton at the ports for the first three days
of this week are 7i6 bales, against 9.616 bales
for she same time last year These figures at
test two things: First, that the crop as COM
pared with last year is q late one and likely 10
move slowly; and second, that the quantity OF
cotton out Of tho old crop still held back is
much less than last year, when 1t was estimated
that at least 100000 bales were carried over in
planters hands out OF the preceding crop. The
recognition of these facts has given fresh
strength to the market to day. Liverpool is
4-644564d higher This market opened at
points improvement, and mad gained further
points by I o'clock. the advance was checked
at one time by the report that the Master Spin
ners' Association in Manchester had deter mined
to reduce wages per cent. in thirty days; but
the real facts OF the case, as cabled to the
United States, are that the consideration of the
question has been deferred for thirty days.
This is really in favor of the market. Silver
has again improved slightly. The quotation in
London to-day is IS 10 II, which is 3-i6 higher
than yesterday ana ZIG above the lowest THIS,
too, is an encouraging feature. During the
afternoon the market continued quiet and
steady, fully supporting the early advance"
