The Chronicle says: Photographic adj
Vices this evening indicate that in the
main the weather has been satisfactory
in the South the past week. While rain
has fallen In most localities, the pre-
cpitation has been little. as a rule. and,
consequently, outdoor work has suffered
but little. AS a result. picking and
marketing have made rapid progress. Re-
ports from Texas are TO the effect that
but little cotton remains TO be picked,
and our correspondent at Madison. Fla,
states that about three quarters OF the
crop has been gathered. From Helena.
Ark, we are advised that with late frost
a good top-crop is anticipated"
Suns review: Spot cotton here was I'M
changed. Liverpool was unchanged on
the spot. Futures there declined IL to
point. The receipts at the ports were
estimated at 5000 bales. The exports
here declined to 3 points, but recovered
the loss, and advanced 3 to points,
closing steady. Northern spinners have
taken thus far this season 21,S56 bales,
against 29. 426 bales last season.
The speculation to-day was of holiday
character, and the fluctuations I'm prices
were confined within narrow limits. The
Liverpool cables were easier, and prices
here declined slightly at the opening, but
later the loss was recovered, on predic-
lions OF frost in Arkansas Oklahoma,
and Indian Territory, and prices slowly
advanced
