The general temper OF to-day's cofton
market was bullisll. With covering OF olo
short accounts a feature OF the tranaac-
tions. Prices advanced 20 points. AZ
tho start. in sympathy with a strong SET
of English cables. and on bullish weather
reports from the cotton belt. Private
cables TO the effect that yarns and cloths
at Manchester were hardening. and tnat
spinners were bidding old prices freely
for large blocks OF spot cotton at Liver
pool. added TO the better feeling here, ana
increased the apprehension OF the less
confident bears. a sharp reaction in ~
lures at Liverpool led TO selling, In the
late forenoon, and by midday the early

ture. inasmuch as the recent rains were
