New York Feb. A-Developments OF
the early session were of a gratifying ma
ture TO the bull clique and led TO the TAX
ing OF a fresh hold by number of ope-
rators, who withdrew from the market
last week on the decline The opening was
steady with prices to 8 points higher,
this advance subsequently being increas-
ed 10 s to II points
The stronger ruling Of the market ana
improvement in sentiment generally was
due to the unusual array OF bullish in
fuences the most important Of which,
however, we're very firm cables from the
English market and unfavorable climatic
reports from the cotton region Even the
more confident longs had not expected an
advance Of 2 to points In futures and l-S2
IN spot cotton at Liverpool over Sunday,
nor had they looked for the heavy rains
