Cotton.
Jplands-The market at the opening of the
week was steady at l6c for middling, and
has steadily advanced lntil to-day, when it
closed at 3 Ice for middlng. 1t, however.
brought 17sc at the midday call at the cotton
exchange on Thursday, but the market de-
clned l-i6,, at which price it remained until
1 the closing tOd day, The demand has been
good during the entire week and the sales
nave amounted to about 1900 bales The de-
maud for cotton has been strong during the
past week, Notwithstanding the large re-
eep;s- Liverpool improved on futures and
SEM some buying orders to this
country, and Manchester was evidently
. more disposed to invest, as indi ated
by the record of slot sales on the foreign
market. Domestic spinners still show eau
ton but there are evidences of more attention
being shown by eastern buyers, which creates
nope OF fuller business to follow. The gen
eTdI weather and cyclone reports from the
cotton section caused the market to be slim
Uated together with the expected uafaVora
Dle reports of the agricultural bureau which
VIII Oe issued on the 10th Of the month. The
movement of the crops is still in large quaint
ltN' but finds ready buyers as the expec
iaucy ana probability OF a shrlnkage causes
rrtNt.SlmentS SO as to secure the crop in case
OF IL being short.
