Say That Heavy Buying Was Cause
of High Prices.

of High Prices.
New York, Jan. 22.-Stragglers who
failed to enter the market in eXpecta-
ton of an opportunity to buy at big
decline were on the anxious seat when
the market opened to-day. This was
caused by an unexpected squirt in Liv-
erpool market prices, there showing
one of the best gains of the season.
Heavy buying set in, which lifted our
market sharply. Shorts were anxious
buyers and people who considered
prices high at u cents were inclined
to take a good quantity at 14.5Oc to
1890.
AS to the development over night,
there was nothing new. Everybody
wanted to buy according to the situa-
ton as it has been known for some
time, independent of what may be
known hereafter. 1t was being rec
ognized that cotton would be scarce
as the season advanced, because the
crop had not been made to supply the
demand. Most bullish news came from
Europe to-day, indicating that the
trade was gradually wheeling into the
bull column.
The market was we'll supported dur
ing the forenoon, although there was
enough profit-taking to prevent any
squirt of magnitude. One feature was
an early rise to Is cents for July. Liv-
erpool showed an advance of 19 to "a
points, with the tone steady.
The South sent many bullish points
on the movement from now on. Hous-
ton expects small receipts tomorrow.
The insight movement was 223, 900,
against 100000 last year.

Walter j. Ballard of Schenectady. N.
Y, in letter to the New York Sun,
under date of Jan. Il, says: THE
London Times, in reporting the sale of
thirteen bales of Porto Rico cotton,
quotes A. A. Patton, vice chairman OF
the British Cotton Growing Associa-
ton. as saying: This is the finest
cotton ever imported into Liverpool.
and ii is noted that for the cultiva-
ton OF this fibre the climate and soil
OF the island are peculiarly adapted
A sample of this small lot of Porto
Rico cotton was described by an ex-
perienced broker (who did not know
its origin) as good sea island. The
price realized was l41zd pound, a good

SEA ISLAND COTTON.

The sea island trade was very brisk
during the week and the bust
ness would have been augmented but
the offerings were restricted. Quota
tions were advanced however, and some
business was done since the markets
close
Included in the weeks receipts were
several ldrg1 blocks Of sea islands
which were held in the interior, which
caused the receipts to nearly equal
those of last year.
The crop of sea islands in sight is
69196 bales against 1884 last year,
which is a difference of 19.1SS bales.
The supply of the Carolinas is so
nearly exhausted, that the season . is
virtually ended, while in Floridas and

ding uplands in New York during the
far in advance of those now quoted
the rampant bulls insist that 20-cent
cotton is within sight before the ides
of March.
While the receipts of Savannah are
not up to those of last year and the
1000 900 mark has not yet been reach
ed, this is accounted for on the hy-
pothesis that the receipts of nearly all
ports have fallen off, due to the small
crop and the further reason that much
cotton is being held in the interior
and has not been shipped.
Savannah is receiving nearly as
much cotton from Memphis as last
year, but the shortage is due to the
fact that the crop in territory contig-
uous to Memphis this year in much
smaller than last.
Yesterday was another bullish day
In both futures and spots. The New
York market opened strong on an adj
vance of to q points on sensationally
strong cables. Spots in Liverpool
closed 26 points up and futures IA up.
In New York the spots were Is points
better than on the previous day and
futures registered II to So points ad-
vance.
In the local situation there was a
small sale of spot cotton at accent
advance.
The f. o. b. brokers did some bust
ness at IA 11-16 to 14&c. but offerings
were light and the interior still holds
firmly for better prices.
