cotton futures showed a stu further
advance Of "a points, English cables be-
ing Of favorable purpOrt advices from
New England mills and from dry-gOods
markets encouraging, and reports from
southern spot markets also OF bullish
character. For a time, buying was quite
active and included operations for Wall
street and old outside accounts. but was
cl.ned 10 cover, not only on the strong
factors mentioned, but in view of the
holidays at hand. Later phases Of the
