higher ToGsy's market WAS very excited and
feverish. The fact that the South Was heavily

intimidated holders and largo quantities OF
long cotton came out on the decline. Liver
pool was also heavy seller. but against spots
purchased yesterday. The fact that the South
is heavily long OF cotton and continues 10
buy no doubt gives weaker tone to our mar
ket as prices advance on account OF their
possibly wishing to realize al. at once. but
II also substantiates shorD crop statements,
Near months were much the weakest today on
account of large number OF enquiries. Not
withstanding our break OF today Southern
spot markets not only held firm az unchanged
prices but at several points advanced. The
break is what the market needed and we
believe as soon ms the shortness OF the crop
Is realized cotton will sell very much higher.
