being too much cotton, SO much has
been wanted that the new cotton COM
il g from the South has not been suf-
ficient to meet the demand. Experts
have been heavy, and more cotton has
been going to Europe than can be
spared at the present time.
The report from the South that frost
had appeared in tine cotton belt on
Friday and Saturday nights started
the advance in Liverpool and threw
the local market into the state of de-
liberalization prevailing during the
greater part of the day. Trading was
On an enormous scale, with millions
Of dollars worth of cotton changing
hands hourly. 1t is new feared that
the cotton crop will prove less than
the requirements CT trade, which will
leave the future market subject to a
repetition CT the past seasons maniou-
lation ard corners.
After several wide fluctuations last
irg until after 1 O'Clock the market
started and advanced to the highest
figure of the movement. December
sold at 1926. or above the opening
high level, while January sold at
1925. Reports from the South re-
vealed a corresponding advance in the
price of spot cotton, the various mar
kets selling from Is to 1-4c higher
than last week.
Excitement continued throughout
the day. Large blocks of cotton were
bought during the afternoon.
