of cotton: "The bulls were in full control
in all the cotton markets to-day Liver
pool Joined in the general chorus this
morning. and cabled the handsome ad-
vance of 7-64d. Our market opened wild,
Z TO II points higher. Sales of october
We're made at 7S3c and at 7.9lc on the frst
call. The weekly government crop report
was extremely unfavorable and was fully
borne out by the private advices from the
south. Buying orders on a large scale
poured In from everywhere and the trans
actions on the exchange were the largest
in months. At times during the day heavy
realizing sales would cause moment ary
weakness and some reaction in price, but
the undertone was bullish all day. The
close was steady, with 1850 bid for Octo-
Der. The excellent condition of trade and
tle apparent promise OF snort crop can
hardly fail, We think, to carry prices
higher, although We advise caution in buy
ing after so very sharp an advance"
