Loveman & Co.'S Market Letter.


Today's market, with net gain for
the short session of IL TO 10 points. came
a fitting climax to a week of bullish
developments. Liverpool was surprisingly
strong, closing firm at an advance of 10
to II points on the more active positions,
while spots were IA points higher, with
sales at the advance amounting to 1900
bales. In response to such good Liver
pool, our market opened firm at an adj
vance of y to 10 points. Considerable
profit-taklng and some short selling were
INDUCED in shortly after the opening
when May contracts eased off to 1890. A
reported good spot demand at higher
quotations caused some fresh buying be-
fore the close, which was steady at the
advance stated above. Spots were official
ly reported firm at an advance of &c on
all grades. Sales amounted to 1850 bales
of spots and 800 bales to arrive, on the
basis of 1904 for mddling. Seven hundred
bales were delivered on contract. May
sold today as high as 1896, or practically
at an advance of 80 points from the bott
tom prices touched last Monday After
such a good reaction 1t was but natural
that there should be a disposition on
the part of those who bought at much
lower level, to take profits. This feature
of the trading together with the fact
that the market was open only half of
a day, prevented a full response to the
surprising strength shown by Liverpool
Gables state that English spinners were
short of both cotton and yarns, and priv
ate advices received by local exporters
state that continental spinners are no
better off in this respect. Spot sales for
the week In Liverpool reached the mag
nihcent total of $1,000 bales, while spin
ners taxings were even larger, aggre-
eating 9S0o0 bales. Consumption, to judge
by yesterdays bullish visible supply state
ment is progressing In way that aston
ishes the cotton trade, and bids fair
to surpass last year.

"Oh, Pm railroad man." he said.
please open, cannot wait"
why do you long to be within
This place of groans and tears?"
The mans frame shook with anguish
And his ashen face showed fear.
He said "On earth had no peace
My life was full of jars.
l lied to all the rice men,
Because they wanted cars"
The devil said: go away poor man,
This is no place for you.
The hold is full of rice men,
Waiting to put you through"
They've gotta cast iron freight car,
Well heated through and through,
They've held 1t now so very long,
The demurrsge 10 up to you."

COTTON AND WOOL GOSSIP
Comments by Delegate NIAGARA, Who
Attended Big Convention at
Bremen, Germany
BY Associated Press.

BY Associated Press.
LONDON. July 3.-Charles Wright
NIAGARA, chairman of the committee of
the International Federation of Master
Cotton Spinncrs ana Manufacturers,
who has just returned here from the
cotton spinners congress at Bremen,
thinks that the international organiza-
tion is within measurable distance of
obtaining its main objects, namely. the
Steadying of prices. the checking of
professional gambling operations. the
appointment of a commission to inveS-
tigate the rules of cotton exchanges,
and, finally, the improvement of the
ginning. baling. transportation and
marketing of cotton. He considers the
decision to improve the marketing, etc.
of cotton to be the most important ac-
tion taken by the Bremen congress. He
estimates that $5,000000 could be an
nually saved in these items in Ameri
can cotton alone and believes that the
strong financial position of the Ameri-
can growers, enabling them to hold
their cotton, will have an important
while Mr. Macara considers the desired
minimum price of 10 cents to be eX-
ceedingly profitable, he thinks that
users will not grumble at It,
Finally, Mr.. Macara attaches grea t
importance to the promise of the users
of cotton, that America is prepared to
cooperate with the European spinners.
