nearest approach to the present price is

that there is now a good showing for
producers to reap neat profits for their

factor and If they are as small next

price will jump to a much higher figure.

New York, Jan. 26.-Hubbard Bros &
Co SAY of cotton: In Liverpool the demand
from Manchester was smaller than for
some time past and this together with
the repulse in South Africa of the British
forces, led to a decline when an advance
had been expected. Opening somewhat
lower, our market quickly rallied on a
renewal of the arbitrage buying for for
eign account. This interest has been so
sharply reduced that the demand could
not be heavy and after ii was satisfied
The market yielded to the lowest The
trade Is inclined to be bulish on the con-
tinued good trade accounts from Manches-
ter and the movement of the crop Liver
pool has secured this week more cotton
than they delivered to spinners so the
supplies for that market show slight in
crease The local situation is so strong
that the traders cannot see how much of
decline can occur, Liverpool again
bought on arbitTage account at the clos
ing, causing the market to close steady.

New York Jan. 26.-Murphy & Co say
of cotton to-day: Liverpool disappointed
our locals to-day with a decline of 1-32d
on spots and about 2-64d on futures, on
which our market opened down 2 to 6
points. Presumably the advantage in At

slight increase instead of a decrease, as
