ADVANCE IS SUBSTAN TAI

New York, August 7.-New high records for the bull movement were made in cot ton again during todays trading, although the bull leaders were at no time aggres- slve buyers. The market closed steady at a net advance of 25 points on August and of to 10 points on later positions. Business was a little more active than yesterday sales being estimated at lbo,VoO.
 The market opened steady at an ad- vance of to points in response to better cables than expected. Private adYices said that New York bulls had bought in Liverpool, but there was no sign of sup port from this source at the opening here and during the first few minutes the mar ket eased off 3 or 1 points from the pest under bearish pressure and realizing. of- ferings were not heavy, however and be- fore the end of the first hour buying movement set in, seemingly for both ae- counts. Stop loss orders were caught and before the advance was checked October sold at 9:S3.
 A reaction to 9.75 under realizing and selling for turn by local scalpers was not accompanied by any weakening or the undertone, and later the market ruled very firm and nervous, owing to covering with October selling up to 9.S5, or II points net higher while August touched 1919, or 2S points net higher on lew purchases by local spot interest. The close was off from the best under realiz- ing. Southern spot markets oniclally re- ported were generally unchanged Weather conditions continued favorable in the main, while somewhat conflicting crop news was of bearlsh average.

New Orleans Cotton Market.

New Orleans, August 7.--Cotton spots were easy with prices unchanged. Mid ding, 10%c. Sales were 400 bales on the spot and none to arrive.
 Futures opened steady, to points above the close yesterday, in spite of favorable weather reports and other bearish features. The higher levels were attributed to favorable advices from Liverpool and other mark cts, which reported futures as being several points up. After the call the market sold off by reason of lack of outside support. Manipulation in the New York market caused a spurt there. which was reflected somewhat at New Orleans. but did not exert its full force on account of the local market being more under the influence of good crop prospects. The market ruled a few points easier during the late session on selling by long scalpers, but there was no significant change in its con- stitution. At the close. wh ich was quiet and steady, the active months were 5 to points above the close yesterday.

Hubbard Bros. 6 Co.'s Letter.

New York, August 7-Liverpool cables that the strength of that market is due to New York buying orders. which are attributed to the same interest identified with the buying movement here. October and August have led the market today in the same way as of late, leading the trad CTS to believe that the market will be sus- tained well above the southern markets unless crop accounts should rapidly change from their present good tenor, to become poor. Within the next fortnight we should hear of shedding from various districts. as the plant is so heavily fruit ed that it must lose some part of the pres ent prospect. The feeling is bearish on the crop reports. but with the near posi- tions strongly held no immediate decline is expected, though spnners show less disposition to buy forward deliveries even at these prices. The spot market remains unchanged.
