SIMS review: Cotton closed barely
steady at a net advance OF II 10 IS
points. with sales OF PSI. so bales.
! To-day's features: Again prices shot
| upward like a rocket to-day. The advance
/ in Liverpool was Unexpectedly sharp, and
/ Il looks as though the South was to have
another siege Of dry and hot. weather.
! Shorts covered freely, and there was
also considerable buying for long ac-
count. as well as new buying for out-of-
| town operators. Bad reports continue to
! pour IN and to make matters worse, the
| Signal Service predicted continued ralr
and warm weather for the next thirty
six hours. The South and Liverpool
bought to-day, and the spot markets were
more active. The receipts at the ports
| and interior towns We're liberal, but they
were not factor in the speculation. IL
Is entirely a weather market IL the
dry weather continues many predict much
! higher prices.
