large estimate FOR receipts Mt Houston to-
day, much cotton TINT has been held back
by bed weather being expected to arrive
today Tho free movement of Texas cot
ton ana the general impression that much
cotton is belng held back In this state
cuts an important Squire with the hears,
who use the Texas crop as hammer
to keen prices from going higher. The
fact that Texas has held a share OF her
crop instead of rushing Il on the market
as soon az it was ginncd Is also one Of the
perpleNing questions that the statistlcan
has had to deal with.
1t is thought by some that n repetition
of the January deal may be attempted In
some degree, though It Is hardly possible
that 1t can be SO successful for It's pro.
motcrs again.
