lsh features to-day were small receipts a. the
interior towns, decreasing interior stocks
some advance in Liverpool, rising quotations
at the south. some continental buying, and

| New York. Jan. 12-Riordan and Co. say Of
| cotton to day: " This has been the most cheer
| ful day that our friends of cotton have seen
| for a long time. Liverpool dld little more
/ than hold her own. and on the opening was
| without material Improvement first sales OF
| March being &. l0c. During the first hour the
market remained dull and rather weak un-
| der heavy sales to realize profits. But the
! port AMI interior receipts were light and the
| reduction IN the interior stocks was more
| serious than expected. Before noon an ac-
/ tive buying movement had set in and March
! advanced TO S25. About that price, the trans
actions were large and the sellers for time
| outnumbered the buyers. March receded
| to 1923 and many were looking
for a more serious reaction. but fresh and
active buying was soon resumed, and a further
advance OF points took place. March rising
to $50. The close was firm, with S29 bid for
March. 1t is evident that the big crop men
are revising their opinions and IL receipts
continue light we may see prices considerably
higher. There will, Of course. be sharp re
actions, and we advise our friends to take
| profits on every good bulge, but upon all
breaks we are now inclined to favor buying. ="
