efter on fears of crop damage by rains
and cold weather.
When 1t was ascertained that no dam

accelerated by the continued heavy move
ment ana large weekly Bombay receipts.
ABOUT this time the Washington Weather
Bureau predicted that a heavy frost was
indicated tonight in Tennessee, Arkans-
as North and Central Alabama, North
ana Central Mississippi North Louisiana
ana light frosts in Eastern Texas and
Louisiana, the southern portion of Mis-
sissippi. Alabama and Louisiana, except
along the coast buying orders came in

the demand subsidized, values eased off 4

on this years positions, but 2 lower on
next crop months. Interior operators took
advantage of the steadiness to sell new
crop months, claiming that the recent
rains We're beneficial as they put a good
season in the ground They state that the
cold weather VIII only retard germina-
ton. On the whole, we think there is less
speculative short interest in the market
than there has been for many weeks. The
situation continues very bearish statistic
ally and otherwise. therefore, with clear
ing weather and no material decrease in
receipts we suggest selling only new crop
options on all strong periods. We advise
selnng these positions as they cannot be
manipulated and will be ruled by legiti-
mate influences.

Hubbard Bros. & Co.'s Cotton Letter.

New York. April 1s-The advance in
Liverpool to-day was hardly equal to the
Improvement here yesterday though that
market closed firm. Our cables state the
Improvement was due to reports of dam
age from cold rains. AS the government
predicts warmer and fair weather behind
this April shower it would appear to be
favorable for the progress OF the crop.
The local trade regard the movement
which points to 100000 bales more tnAn
laet season as not excessive and feel
rather bullish on the theory that steady
market may attract some Of the specula-
ton now in Wall street. Estimates for
New Orleans and Houston were largely IN
avcess ~ last year. The interior move
nosnt for the week is estimated at 5000
bales. against 1900 bales last season. re
ceipts AT Bombay $4,000 bales against
IL. 900 bales last season.
