COTTON MARKET
 TAKES ON LIFE Shorts Were Frightened and Investment Stimulated PRICES CLOSED NET HIGHER Rumor AfIoat That Philadelphia Ex- port Interests Is snappng Up All the Cotton Offered of Middilng
 Or Better Grade.

New York. February 21.-Cotton opened higher by ? to points. Receipts at the ports bid fair to show a loss of several thousand bales under early estimates, while rumor had 1t that Philadelphia ex- port interests were snapping up all cot ton offered of middling or better grade throughout the belt. This combination of influences had the effect of badly fright ening local shorts and of stimulating in- vestment support.
 On the first call prices worked up to F points, with the market showing marked strength. Following the call prices further improved a trihe, but by midday the net gain had been reduced to matter of to points by realizing In anticipation of holiday. Later, renewed covering and urgent demand for March and May by prominent houses believed by some to be with manipulatory intent caused prices to return to the best fg- ures of the forenoon and in some in- stances to rise above that level Trading was brisk much of the time with Wall street, the south and Europe notable buy CTS on the rise.
  reports that the bulk of the New York stock had passed into the hands of staunch bull interests, whose apparent purpose was to hold this staple for rise in March and for shipment abroad. The fact that but little over 5000 March mo- tices were put out whereas %,OO0 had at least been expected, gave color to this announcement. The market at the close was steady, with prices ' to 12 points higher.

attention. The fact that the Titania
was in a cove between the cliffs made
it impossible for the crew to land. The
ship is a total wreck and the cargo
