ket upon the resumption of business this

mand from foreign sources and also some
buying for Wall street account. Very 1T
lie cotton was for sale and the market
easily advanced on small transactions.

Savannah, July 5-Pane, Murphy & Co.
say of cotton today: There was better
feeling IN cotton futures and Spots at New
York to-day supernduced by energetic
activity at Manchester and large orders
from India and China, for coarse sheet
ings Opening at New York showed late
sellers willing 10 cover and this, coupled
with scattered Southern orders, caused
considerable strength. The weekly gov
ernment report was construed rather bull
ish, and also helped the sentiment. Re-
gardless of the fact, we consider the pres
ent spurt will be short lived and believe
il is q good opportunity to put out short
lines. Sales to-day 81, 100 bales"
