Cotton shot upward like a skyrocket
again, and the days close saw futures
nearly a half cent higher. There was
no tagging in the markets attitude
from the very beginning and the first
quotations showed an advance.
The market was strong in the Eng
lish ring both for futures and spots
and there was a really strong demand
tor Jhe latteF, although quotations
were unchanged.
The receipts continue extremely
light, and factors insist that every
thing goes to show that the present
crop has nearly reached the point of
exhaustion.
There is said to be very little cot
ton in the country, and what there
is, is being held for higher prices.
The local bull leader again entered
the New York arena yesterday and
his very presence seemed to inspire
his followers, but when he actually
commenced bidding, the staple took d
decided upward tendency and futures
closed from Is to As points up.
New Orleans also recorded nearly a
80 point advance.
In the local market spots recorded
25 points, or "A advance at the last
call.
f. o. b. brokers did some little bust
ness. The market opened steady at
1850, and closed at 15hd155sc Some
sales were made after the official close
OF the market at higher figures.
