! New York. March 2e-Sun's cotton review
| says: Cotton advanced 10 to Is points, clos
ing 10 to II points higher for the day aud
| steady after larger business. Sales 125 0 o
| ales Liverpool advanced 80 to points
| closing steady, spot sales 1900 bales at
hardening but unchanged prices. In Man
| chester yarns were steady, cloths quiet and
| unchanged. The BOMBAY receipts this week
| were $4,000 bales, against 10 900 bales fer
| the same week last year; thus far this
year, $4,000 tales, against 5S7 900 bales for the
| thus far this year, 29,0JO tales TO Great
| Britain, against 20 900 bales for like period
| in 1893, and 227,0JO bales to the continent
| against 236O09 bales for the corresp onding
time last week. New Orleans advanced 10 to
| II points. Spot cotton here advanced 1se.
| Sales 2i5 bales for spinning. Southern
| spot markets were steady or firm with
| some indications for increasing demand
| partly, 1t is understood from American spin
| ners. New Ing llnd's spinners, il is said. are
| bidding more freely at New Orleans. Re
| ceipts at the ports to-day, l,sl6 bales against
1898 bales this day last week and S.1t7 bales
last year; thus. far this week l,167 bales
against Al ,094 bales thus far last week. After
the sudden and sharp advance to-day the
average bear perhaps telt a little like the
| school 10y who STUDIED his toe. He
was too big TO cry and II hurt too much to
laugh. Liverpool did much to adEan e prices.
Its own quotations were raise points in our
money and its spot sa es were enough to
gladden. the hearts OF most exacting uull. he
port and interior receipts continued small. A
report was circulated on the floor early in the
day that New Orleans would receive 1909
bales tomorrow, at the REGULAR oticial esti-
mate was ONLY l,50J tales to 900 ales. aga INST
l,076 bales on the same day last week and
1885 bales last year. The port receipts this
week are estimated at only 10000 bales
to y, 900 bales, against 81 800 bales last week
and o95lO tales last year. The interiors
are not expected to be overs 0ales, against
l207l bal for this week last year. The in
terror shipmen are still rlnning considerl-
ply ahead Of The interior receipts. Since last
Friday the Memphis stock has decrea sed
7.72l bales and 1T. Louis has lost l 462
bales. Liverpool and the continent
sent buying orders. As to the veto Of the Bland
bill. some merchanis are dissatisfied with the
language in viii b it is cout hel as it is feared
it leaves loophole for further legislature in
regard to the Seigniorage. still the market
is strong Levond question, and the bears
were disposed to re more cautious than ever.
Not few OF them covered to day to be on the
safe side"
New York March 9-Riordan & Co. say of
OF cotton to day: The cotton market went
up to-day. The continued strength Of Liver
pool and the light figures of port receipts
which were less than 5000 oales against more
than 000 on this day last year was enough
10 give us a good advance at the opening and
the sudden anxiety OF splnners. caused by the
"a id depletion Of American stocks concur
rent WIN "a BFdQudl Dub ullen1aDle improve
ment in trade. created a demand which gave
us the liveliest day and the strongest market
that we have had for many day. The
opening was at an advance OF 5
points the first sales of May Icing at 1850
But the active demand continued. with ocCa-
sional intervals of quietude, until the last
hour. when May sold at 1850, 10 points higher
than yesterdays final prices. Towards the
last there were considerable SAFES to realize
profits, causing a recession of a few points.
The close was steady, with 7.13c bid for MAY.
The bulls talk very confidently this after
noon of higher prices, and If the conditions
If improving demand and diminished supply
should continue their eXpe tations may ue
realized But there is a great deal of lcnz
cotton bought at higher prices which the
holders are awaiting a chance TO I'm Dad aud
auuci gate more life in the market than we
have lately seen. We shall not be surprised
if sharp advances are followed by sudden
breaks. The outlook is very uncertain one"
