COTTON LETTERS.

New York. Feb. 2-Hubbard Bros &
co. say; LIVERPOOL responded to our ad-
vance of yesterday by an Improvement
of to points, touching the highest
prices of many years. ON these adVices
our market opened hiehor with large buy
ing orders fir m Europe which were again
supplied by the liquidation of the holders
IN the South and throughout the country.
The movement has increased until IL
romises to exceed that Of last season
curing the month. II is this feature which
induces the liquidation of holders while
Europe after fighting the advance all
season is now securing her supplies at
high prices, The new crop deliveries are
now selling at prices which will pay an
excellent profit to every planter before
he has started work on his crop Many
will doubtless take advantage OF this fact
to secure profit. After rapid fluctuations
the market became steady after the noon
hour at about opening prices.
New York Fel9.--4 Murphy & Co. say:
Liverpool was surprising to everybody to-
day. She more than RESPONDED to our adj
vance of yesterday. Spots were marked
up 3-S2d with sales of S000 bales, and flu
lures were Tod higher at the opening.
This caused our market to open 5Q7 points
above last nights figures and advanced
some SAT points further on good buying
for foreign and local account. At this ad-
vance there was considerable selling by
over night scalp RS influenced by decline

COTTON,

The week has been one of the most re-
markable in years The feature has been
the advance, Notwithstanding unfavorable
news from South Africa, which was cal
culated to have a depressing effect on the
English markets. New York went up,
however, and Southern spots followed in
its tread The Improvement in the South
is due largely to the firmness of Southern
markets, which have withstood every at
tack made on them. The local market
jumped 3-16 cent to-day, and the indica-
tions point to still higher prices, as feel
ing is decidedly bullish on all sides. The
receipts of cotton at Savannah for the
week were 30, 800 bales, and the exports 3d.
23O bales.

SEATTLE THEATFR

An event Of Importance to local
lovers of pugilism will occurr at
the Seattle theater, commencing
Sunday evening. The pictures Of
the Jeffries-Sharkey fight are de-
clared to be the only real pictures
taken of that ring-championship
deciding contest. Since Bernard
Shaw in George Cashel's Pro
fession'' and DIR. Conan Doyle in

lied the prizefghter's art in digni-
fed fiction, it is not out Of keeping
that the footlights should be trans
formed by the modern ingenuity
of the biograph, into the ropes Of
the pugilistic arena, and that q
historic event of the scene should
survive itself in pantomimic pro-
duction. These are unquestion-
ably the best pictures ever secured
OF a genuine fight, the regroduc-
ton being, for the most part. per-
feet. Seats now on sale.
"The Three Muscateers" will fol-
low the Jeffries-Sharkey contest

nights, commencing Wednesday,

powerful attraction for Manager

Edwin C. Jepson's production
