New York, Sept 2S.-Hubbard Bros. &
Co. say of cotton to-day "A very large
covering demand was the cause of the
sharp advance in Liverpool this morning,
which could only be filled at an advance
of 3-64d over yesterday. Our own market
opened steady 4 to points higher on for
eign buying orders, but shortly after I'M
der selling from America as the receipts
became known, The movement in Texas
finally Carried prices below those of last
evening, but the rally abroad, and the
buying for what appears to be continental
account, sustained the market. Generally
traders think that this reaction has not
changed the outlook for a further decline,
as they consider this reaction to have
eliminated a weak short interest and TO
have left the market without q needed
support. While admitting this PROPOSE
ton, merchants consider the policy of buy
ing down for investment on the basis of
yesterday as Offering the best opportunity
for a profit"
New York, Sept. 2S.-Paine, Murphy &
Co say Of cotton to-day: There was more
firmness in cables this morning Liverpool
reporting a good demand for spot cotton,
with sales of 1900 bales. This caused
following on the local future market, re
suiting in an advance of 4 to points.
Port receipts were much heavier than last
year, which, with some selling by room
traders, caused a sharp recession, January
selling at 5.30c. On good buying however,
The market again advanced, closing a
net gain of 4 to 5 points. 1t is conceded
by all that the farmer will get little or no
profit from this years cotton. This is
bound TO curtail next years production,
ana although the time is far distant, spec
ulation early discounts such events, and
though We look for no substantial rise
just yet sharp spurts will not surprise
u.s."
