New York, March S-Cotton turned strong
in the late trading to-day. after an irregu
lar price movement during the greater part
of the day. and after the closing of the
New York market advices from New Or
leans reported an advance Of 10 points there
for spot on the final transactions.
The movement Of the market was in
fuenced by reports that a bullish circular
on the visible supply was forthcoming
from H. NJ. Neill and this circular ma
terialized after hours. 1t turned out to be
very bullish in nature. in that 1t estimated
the visible supply Of September l next at
25O,0OO bales as against Mr.. Neil's own es-
innate Of $4,000 bales made in November.
A visible supply Of but 2500OO bales by
September indicates q famine in the staple.
From Mr.. Neilrs figures there will no doubt
be much dissent.
The circular issued by Mr.. Neill is. in

pose of the association is to procure an ap-
preparation for an exhibit at once. as the
Legislature of that State Is now In session.

that some such step should be taken to

that such celebration will take place in
