COTTON MARKET Is
GENERALLY FIRM
Bulls Renew Support and he-
sent Sellers Cover
SOUTHERN SPOTS FIRMER
Reports Indicate UnfavorabIe Start of
the New Crop In Portions of
the Belt, Notably
Texas.
SOUTHERN SPOTS FIRMfR

New York, May 5.-The cotton market
was fairly active and generally firm on a
renewal of bull support and covering of
recent sellers. The opening was very firm
at an advance of S@12 points in response
to much firmer cables than expected.
Shorts were good buyers, and there was
some demand for long account, but it
was thought that the advance in the
Liverpool market was the result of bull
manipulation, to make a selling basis hero
and with the weather good, there was
ing up two or three points from the OPEN
ing figures. prices eased off from four to
8 pei-ts under these offerings, but firmed
up again about midday, and in the after
noon reached the highest level of the
day. or net gain of about nineteen to
twenty points on active covering, and
continued ull support from both local
and New Orleans sources. Private wires
claimed much firmer spot run In the
south. aiding in the advance while there
were also a number of reports of an I'M
favorable start of the new crop in por-
lions of the belt, notably Texas. The
close was steady with prices only two or
three poinst off from the best at net
gain of fourteen to eighteen points. Sales
were estimated at 100000 bales.
Receipts at the ports today 41,4O0 against
26.4l5 last week and 479S last year. For
the week estimated 1854 600 bales, against
163S94 last week, and 34,S12 last year
Todays receipts at New Orleans 5l66
bales. against 1924 last year. and at Hous-
ton 3451 bales against 17S last year.

Ware G. Leland's Market Letter.

For some days the cotton market has
been irregular, but the undertone has
displayed strength. This has been due
to somewhat unsatisfactory weather
which includes too much rain and delay
ed planting and to the extensive short
covering of an over-sold market. Prices
have had the assistance of more buying
than for some time but the most prom
inent operator in cotton in this country
after trying In vain to sell cotton down to
cents and being forced to cover above
~ cents on the advance a month ago,
this authority has turned a bull on cotton
and is giving the market thine help not
only Of his own buying but of more pub
Lefty than it has had In some months
Under the circumstances 1t Is not sur
prising that the market holds better than
1t did and for this reason buyers stand
a better chance of getting money out of
the purchases on a decline than was the
case a short time since.
There is, however, too much cotton in
the south for an extended bull market
at this time. unless the weather should
continue unfavorable during the coming
few weeks.
Reports from the south show that above
TIC cotton is for sale. and while there
is very little offered as the market de-
clined the surplus is sufficient to make
the weight felt.
The Birmingham age-herald. [volume] (Birmingham, Ala.) 1902-1950, 1905-05-06

There was a much more bullish feeling
in the cotton market this morning Liver
pool opened to 3 points higher and
closed at a gain of points over last
night. Spots We're 2 points up with sales
of 5000 bales. The local market opened
points higher The trade late in the
forenoon was slow but the market ruled
firm as to tone. Shorts were very I'M
easy, owing to the scarcity of offerings.
The July option was the strongest and
jumped up to 7.54, gain of 20 points for
the day. New Orleans was quiet and did
little else than follow our changes. Room
trade here are slow to make new ventures
fearing further buling by the street The
port movement was very heavy, being es-
timated at $4,000 bales.
