New York, Aug. 23.-The Suns cotton re-
view says The rise in Liverpool, the esti-
mate by the Galveston News that the Texas
crop is 20 per cent. smaller than that Of last
year, and buying for local, southern and
Liverpool account caused another sharp ad-
vance. Crop advices from Louisiana and
| Northwestern Texas were not very favorable
Shorts showed disposition to
cover. Prices advanced IL to IS

LiverDoOl advanced l-l6d on the spot and
Bad for futures, closing quiet but steady with
sales of 10000 bales. Spot cotton was quiet

| New York, Aug. 23.-ltiordan & Co. say of
cotton: "A further advance in Liverpool at
tributed by some to Russian purchases in
| That market caused higher prices here The
trading was unusually active and feVerish
under the strong but irregular stimulus OF
short coverings. Prices gave way whenever
the demand slackened, but the close was firm
at the best prices of the day. January open
ed at 75Sc, points higher than yeSter-
days final price, and after frequent fiuctua-
| lions closed at 1850 bid. No substantial cause
| could be assigned for the advance beyond a
| thorough and pretty general scare amongst
| the shorts. If Liverpool continues to rise it
here may he pushed The outstanding short
/ interest still believed TO be a large cause for
| fresh margins Is scarce, and then the strong
| est believers IN lower prices look completely
! upon reaction which they consider unreaSOn-
/ ing, but which will enable them to get higher
! prices for what ever contracts they may want
/ to sell. But whenever the weak and tiuid
] shorts have been shaken out it is tOlerably
| certain that we shall see a sharp decline"
