Of N e0t9 YORK Aug @RoTdap Co say
ton to-day was marked by much excite
ment and large transactions, with the
bulls in full control in all the markets.
Instead of the break in prices so conf
IDENTIFY looked for by traders generally
Liverpool sent us an advance this morn
bigbe and SSr bai5s pa GPe9 oT P0bs
After the opening eager bidders forced a
further advance to 1850. At this point
the demand seemed satisfied. and a re-
action to 7. soc quickly occurred. The mar
ket then became almost dull, and until
the early afternoon, appeared topheavy
but rumors that the Chronicle would is
sue very bad review tomorrow, caused
a fresh scare among the shorts, and
they began to scramble to cover their
contracts. This buying, together with
very heavy purchases for New Orleans
by a prominent bull operator, caused a
rapid advance to 764c for October. Here
the bulls again poured large blocks of
price back to T.61c. The close was
steady at that figure on the curb. Pri-
waite trades were made as high as 1850,
while in our opinion reaction is more
than likely after the recent rapid adj
vance. The bullish sentiment is very
pronounced. and the crop accounts con-
upon all declines will prove profitable.

The total official sales to-day were 261.-
600 bales, the cotton market showing the
greatest activity of any branch of bust

futures advanced 61a TO points, and then

Interior receipts for the week were

last year; stocks, 34,70S against 4,2Sl last
week, and 5i,636 last year.
Very heavy rainfall in South Carolina
and Georgia. Very little in Texas, and
dry weather predicted in Texas for the
next thirty-six hours.
''To-day's features: Most of the news
was bullish, the speculation was as broad
as restless They went upward with
rush that carried everything before 1t.
Liverpool, the continent, New England,
the south, not excepting New Orleans. and
finally New York, not emitting Wall
street, were good buyers, and II Is under
stood that Chicago also bought to some
extent. very rainy in the Atlantic states,
ranging In Georgia from ] 10 4 inches In
different parts, and continued dry we8-
Their in Texas and predictions of fair
weather In that state during the next
thirty-six hours. A sharp rise in Liv-
erpool and bullish Manchester advices
ali combined TO give the market a strong,
even an almost impregnable appearance.
Certainly the advance was marked. and
even after Change the tone was very
strong. The fever iH on Outsiders are
