The Suns cotton review says Cotton

all OF the advance on this months crop,
and fell TO 4 points on October and
November. closing quiet. with sales Of
$500 bales. Liverpool was unchanged on
spot with sales OF 5000 bales. Futures
there advanced half a point, and closed
steady.
To-days features: The market pulled
both ways it was a little of everything,
and not much OF anything. First, II was
higher because Liverpool was friner than
because OF a little long liquidation,
and a bearish attack on the new crop
months, which were used as a club TO
depress this crops deliveries. In the main
the changes were slight. and the under
tOng was firm.
During the past week the receipts have
been light. and though this fact Is at
tributed partly - heavy rains IA some
sections OF the cotton belt Il Is worthy OF
note that the weather IN Texas was
favorable for moving the crop. and yet
very little was moved. Prices are higher,
and a big increase In the acreage 10 pre-
dlcted. and yet the receipts continue small.
The bulls think this fact speaks volumes.
The receipts az Houston to-day We're a
mere bagatelle IS compared with those
