THE MARKETS WERE FIRM.
Liverpool Mas . Large Buyer 10 New
York.
NEW ORLEANS ALSO BOUGHT FREELY
New York Closed Three 70 Five
Points Higher-spot Cotton still
In Good Demand.
Office OF The Houston Post,
Friday. August q 1891

The cotton markets were firm. Liver
pool advanced / TO Ia poins and was a
large buyer in New York. New Orleans
also bought freely. the market closing
to 2 points higher. New York closed to
5 points up after selling points higher
than the closing figures OF the previous
day. Scattered showers In Texas caused
the easlness. but no rain of any conse-
q,ience has beer reported Indications,
having showered In Houston, are favorable
for rains elsewhere. Spot cotton continues
In good demand. buyers paying quota
tions and more for small lots based on
their offers from abroad. The spinning de-
mand seems to be urgent. The receipts
of new cotton in Houston were 299 bales.
Macy & Pendleton OF New York say:
Cotton traders remain in the passive
watchful position which has prevailed for
some days The disposition to bull cotton
ON account OF the light stocks in sight is
being held In check somewhat by the IA
vorable reports from the plantations. IL
American stocks are likely TO run to u
lower point than ever before recorded, Vt
is probable that the worlds supply will
hardly reach as low figure as last year
or some other former years. The cotton
mills. North and South. are evidently la
boring under both domestic and foreign
competition. which can not be at once
eliminated and though 1t is likely to work
into less formidable position. 1t must be
counted on. 1t is Improbable to pay ex
cessive prices for raw cotton and sell
goods, with difficulty at lowest prices ever
known. Something must give way. Either
the consumer must pay more money. which
he may do this fall or else the price Of
raw cotton must be made lower"
The following liable shows the stocks of
American cotton held at seven of the
markets of the world today, this
day last week and for the corresponding
date last year:

New York August 6.--Atwood Violet,
Lockwood & Co. say of cotton: There is
no evidence in this market of dsposi-
ton elsewhere to buy for investment and
speculation. Sellers of cotton seem
welded to their idols, and judging by their
actions, believe mo good can come out of
Nazareth" therefore. that buying cotton
can only be unprohtable. At the same
time they sell sparingly themselves, but
would be glad to have others pull their
chestnuts from the fire." The improve
ment today was not sustained, fearing
Liverpool would not support us tomor-
row. Lukewarmness there, still attrib-
utable to a belief that ,he next crop Will
be among the largest; while this may
prove true. the question is will not i'm
proved values In communities generally
include cotton also? Why should 1t be
an exception? Much apparently depends
upon the extent OF the spot demand when
cotton moves fr, ely If sellers are more
