prices three points higher After few
moments hesitation the market developed
unexpected strength ON firm cables from
Liverpool and indications that receipts
at all ports were falling off. Buying
was general throughout the day but
shorts were easily the leading purchas-
ers. Wall Street, the South and Liver
pool gave attention almost entirely to
securing the January, March and May
positions The market derived consider
able strength in the afternoon from ru-
mors to the effect that exporters and
American spinners were buying spot cot
ton very freely throughout the South,
leading to very firm markets and higher
asking rates. Official estimates for to-
morrow's receipts at the ports showed
a falling off from last year. There were
numerous reports concerning the short
ness of the crop, with the average point
ing to yield of 100000 to 9,250,000
bales. The local market was finally
very steady in tone with prices net two
points higher upon September and Oc
tober and eight to ten points up on other
months.
