NEW YORK, June 17.-Today's events in the cotton market were empha atically bullish. While the rise was started by Liverpool, the New York market subse- Quently took the lead, only to be outdone by New Orleans late in the session. Shorts were badly frightened much of the day and covered on every easy pe- riod. finally turning with rush in the afternoon. The opening was firm ant 1 to points higher, soon increase1 to 61S points. But within the first hour a set back occurred. cutting down the rise to 2d4 points. Profit-taking and absence of investment support were responsible for the reaction. The cables portrayed a firm and higher market in Liverpool Buying orders were sent to the pit here and did much to strengthen our market. Weather news from the South Atlantic States was unfavorable, and crop reports, too, were discouraging. The strong point of the day came about the middle of the afternoon, when shorts lost their nerve, owing to the appearance of large New Orleans and other Southern buying or ders. The West poured in orders for Au- gust, October and January, Wall Street bought the list in general. and room bulls sensitive to this buying and worked to the highest level touched in many weeks.

NEW ORLEANS.-The market for spot cotton was rather quiet during the fore- noon today, but withal. fairly easy to trading values. Factors tables were we'll supplied with offerings and the assort- ment laid out was very good, but buyers were inclined to hold off somewhat with a view of securing concessions in thesshape of prices a shade below the first part of the day.

 There was considerable energy display ed in the market for contracts during the day, but 1t was largely wasted eneI gy. for the amount of actual trading indulg d in on first call and for some time there after was of almost insignificant propor- tions, the ring men making more noise than money. The movement of the. cur rent crop continues along heavy lines, but the old crop cuts small figure in the trading just now, and all eyes are turned in the direction of the growing crop, which Is, at present, worse than a Chi nese puzzle to the usually well-posted trade.
