tistical position existing in their mar
ket Is puzzling the entire trade. How
they intend to attract sufficient stock
on the present basis is problem
which even exporters are unable to
solve. Their advance was hardly equal
to our Improvement of yesterday and
1t so quickly showed signs of being lost
that the early buyers here began to
realize upon their purchases. A slow
decline set in which even the light re-
ceipts at Houston failed to check. The
key to the situation lies in Europe,
where the spinner refuses to go on
when the market advances. How long
will they look at the light receipts and
poor crop accounts without coming
into the market

New York, Oct. S.-Cotton made a
further advance of 4@6 points this
morning. While only moderate trans
actions took place. 1t was quite appar-

inclined to be bullish, and intensely so,
as a rule. Gables indicated a complete
restoration of confidence at Liverpool,

port. which in only very few instances

ton put on it, as we'll as other adj
vices at hand through other sources,

shape everywhere. Mild temperature
in the South prevented aggressive buy
ing to-day but. on the other hand,
there was more or less rain, Galveston
reporting an additional nine inches and
making fourteen inches for ten days.
Yesterday sellers were anxious to take
profits and some buying for Wall street
account took place during the morning
and the market eased off to yester-
days figures. Cold weather prevailed
in the extreme Northwest. Gables were
goa points higher. Port receipts, $4,000
bales, against $4,000 last year. There
