Nearly All the Cotton Sold.


Now York. April atwood Violet & Co.
sa2:
We rather think same conditions are now
developinT as when March contracts were SELL
ing here several months ago at $50. at
which time the extreme recessious from about
that figure for winter and summer months
aid not break Southern spot markets There.
tore We believe that today's recession in
deiivents will have no apnrccable effect
upon holders. of what comparatively few bales
remain unsold.
Ihreo months ago tho amount OF cotton
held at visible and Invisible points in the
south was very large. but today the supply
sold and unsold' particularly tho latter has
been brought down TO so small volume as
10 make II matter of indifference to holders
whether they sell or not. particularly as they
EXPECT and viii realize. in our opinion, much
higher prices If they will bide their time.
Whie consumDtiye demand continues heavy
SUNNY continues RAPIDLY 10 lessen Much OF
the cotton South ~ leading interior points Is
owned by Southern mills. a prominent local
cotton firm teegraphed TODAY TO every South
ern Dort and all the leading interior points
and the replies indicate an aggregate unsod
of about $50 600 bales

Richard Cooke & Co, say of cotton; Our
advices saw Liverpool market was cheay
influenced bv light interior movements aud
shipments. The statistical position is bccom-
ing stronger all the while consequently the
summer months are showing more strength
than the late months, The news was huliish
enough today, but the market did not ad-
vance as predlcsed which caused many longs
TO sell There was considerable cotton for
sale at limit above the market, At present
think best 70 buy on easy periods and take
profits on Il 70 Is points.
Following is telegram sont out by T. II.
Price today; The cotton market has turned
strong again and the short sellers of this
morning do not know where TO get thsir
cotton, We bought 1000 bales for one OF
the richest spinners IN tho country. who
says he needs the cotton ana will receive H.
said New York eheapest market in the world.

New York. April 5.--S. Mum. Son G Co. say
OF cotton; The rise In Liverpool today was
attributed by not few partly, at least. to
New York manipulation. And yet the Liver
pool cables were not altogether up to the ex-
psctations Of the bulls. and New York re-
acted right after the opening II ia not de-
MED. however. that the advance In Liverpool
or late has been partly caused by Manches-
ter aud Continental buying And vet the
South is disposed to sell the next crop mont Is
on all big rallies, owing TO improved weather
or iete, In spite of the fact that big dis
counts still prevail on the next crop months.
Hnls rely very largely on small receipts far
ammunition and some OF them predict a big
deficit by September /. That is they argue
that the present consumption and prospective
supplies are such that the cotton world viii

New York, April 5.-The cotton market
opened barely steady. 7 points higher to c
points lower. The opening was poor re-
snonse to the English cables. which showed
an advance OF iG6 noints. Locally. there was
an impression that the English advance was
the result Of manipulation rhe fact that later
cables modified the early advance Mt Liver

came irregular and at the lowest point Of the
session showed net loss Of sac points 1t

times very heavy. Most OF the room traders.
however. preferred 10 stand aside and await
the receipt OF more definite crop news. Apart
from the special support given. the market
had weak nndertone, rs predictions pointed
to heavier recelpts at the ports and the in
