Opening Is About 7 Points Up

CLOSE 2 DOWN TO 6 HIGHER
Better Grades Reported Offering More

Port Receipts Light.
CLOSE 2 DOWN TO 6 HIGHER

New York February THE cotton mar
ket had another sharp bulge early in the
day, but most of the advance was lost
later in the session with the close barely
steady at a decline of points to an adj
vance of points. Sales of the day were
estimated at 10000.
The opening was firm at an advance OF
to II points In response to higher cables,
Liverpool being to 91a points higher on
near months at the hour of the local OPP
ening, when due to come about IA to
points higher on the New York close of
the previous day, while the English spot
market was 10 points higher on sales of
u 600 bales.
Some stop loss orders were uncovered by
the initial advance, which carried March
to 9.47 and May to 9.e2, or about to Il
points net higher but at this level realiz-
Ing by recent buyers checked the upward
movement, and with the estimates for to-
morrow's receipts little heavier, prices
sagged off during the middle session
Toward the close local professionals
came little more aggressive on the short
side, and the last prices We're at the low
est point of the session. Port receipts Tor
the day were light compared with recent
figures, and about 1000 bales under the
days exports.
Some wires reported higher grades offer
ing a little more freely, but stated that
holders continued firm in their views, and
southern spot markets officially report
ed were unchanged to 1sc higher.

THE LOCAL MARKETS.

Spot cotton was unchanged In price
again yesterday with quiet demand There
Is but little local cotton on the market,
the majority of growers are apparently
holding the stock on hand for better
prices than present demand seems to
authorize. 1t is believed among cotton
factors that an advance to 10 cents for
middlng would move some of the staple
that is being held in the country.

JAPS WILL RETAL|ATE
Plan to Boycott American Goods
Being Seriously Considered.
DANGER POINT NEAR AT HAND
Toxic Dispatch Says Although War Is
Not Dreamed of Friendly Rela-
tions May Be Broken.

Toxic, July 1.-The impression Is
growing here that the anti-Japanese
feeling and demonstrations In San
Francisco are the outcome of deeply
laid plan based upon racial hatred and
the recent developments apparently
support this impression. The news
papers here which lad special CORE
spondents Of American nationality in
San Francisco have ceased to receive
news from them. No explanation was
offered for the discontinuance of news
that pressure was brought to bear
upon the correspondents in San Fran
cisco not to serve the Japanese papers.
The fear is expressed that the danger
point will soon be reached Although
war Is not dreamed of the mutual
feelings of good will and friendship
will be seriously alienated if prompt
measures are not taken to allay the
general indignation Eere against the
latest discrimination in San Fran
cisco. which, according to japanese
contention, is a fragrant violation of
treaty rights.
Apparently certain measures Of re-
taliation are seriously being contem-
plated by influential men in political
and business circles. Just what action
will be taken has not yet developed,
but boycott against American goods,
It Is believed, will certainly be one of
the steps taken.
