Murphy 6 Co.'S (Ino) Cotton Letter fERv t,rtvata vyyra

NEW YORK, Feb. l7.--Earfy indications were that receipts of cotton at the DO ts would reach 27.0oo. ssainst 26. GOO last year, but this did not stand in the way of fur ther progress in advancing the market, which showed 3@7 points advance on Southern and Wall Street buying to a moderate extent. Ap- parently the higher trend of the mar kct Is far frobm the eliminating point. but at thA. same time profit taking on all moderate advances Is the present policy in most conservative quarters. The same people believe in buying on all breaks and there Is a feeling that the market will show narrow swing for . while and is not likely to move ur by leaps and bounds. Something of shock was caused by the forecast for Houston receipts tomorrow. indicating that 75 per cent. more than last year, but little impression was made on the market, good buying orders turning up from all directions, although May was iquidated to considerable extent. When the bull-moye- nnent will culminate is question The mar ket, it is feared, may advance so rapidly as Go change the plans ot farmers and induce a moro extensive acreage than up to thls time has been contemplated.

PoWELL's ASSETS.
Inventory Shows That They Amount to &0. .OOO

Opelika. Feb. lT-(Special)-Mr. J. H. Powell. who for years has been mer- chant in this city and who in the latter part of December was placed in bank ruptcy, desires to correct statement as to his assets which appeared in The Ad- vertiser at the time. Since complete inventory of all Mir. Powelps property has been made 1t develops that the as- sets are S, 900 and the liabilities are sll.- 600, which makes a much better showing. At the time of the assignment 1t was reported that the assets would be about s6.o0o. but it is now seen that they are much mere. Mr. Powell is one of the most highly respected citizens of this city and his friends are glad to know that he will be able to make a satisfactory settle ment, as his losses, 1t is said, were caused by the failure of others to meet their obligations.
