A DAY OF EXCITEMENT
The Price of Cotton Made an Advance of
hOre than five Dollars 0 Bale.

New York, May 25-The cotton
market is extremely bullish. The
heavy advances of the past few weeks
has frightened shorts and the cover
ing yesterday, together with the
fierce drives of the bull bidders. sent
values bounding forward
Sensationally bad crop reports. in
creased activity In milling circles is
the direct cause of the sharp advance.
Theodore Price issued a circular last
night estimating the crop at $780,
coo bales and supporting his conten-
ton with strong argument based on
facts fresh FROM the fields. He esti-
mates the acreage reduction at II
per cent and the general condition
at zoos and says the crop is II
days late
The bears were almost panic
stricken and were unable TO stem
the buliish tide. even though they
heaved great blocks OF cotton In the
path OF the advancing market. The
bulls bought freely and quotations
leaped forward
Predictions of 9-cent cotton were
freely heard.
Liverpool caught the bullish infec-
tion and prices abroad were chalked
up freely, while predictions of 8
pence cotton within a very short
period were freely heard
The New Orleans market forged
ahead of this market on heavy buy
Ing and took the lead. II is believed
here that the bulls of New Orleans
are cooperating with local talent
and that sensational developments
will be made in the cotton market
The Commercial of this city will
issue a report stating that the acre
age has been reduced 174 per cent
and that I 5 per cent of the crop has
been planted.
The question is being asked here
=" Ii only 50 per cent Of the crop has
been planted up TO the 24th of May,
when will the whole crop be plant
ed ?' And the interrogatory is
very significant one

dict that monster bull campaign is
