 The example of wheat and stock traders has been fin a sense infectious. The rise in grain and stocks has whetted the appetite for cotton operators large and small every where. Their most popular argument for higher prices ia the dry weather In Texas. Come what may. they look for a backward season In that great state. Some go as far to maintain tht there is no possibility of a big Texas crop nor a maximum yield fin Louisiana or Mississippi They assert that a large decrease in Texas need excite no surprise, The statistical potion g grad ualiy growing stronger. The remaining sup plies are believed to be in strong hands.

An unusually large shipment of goods to China Is in progress. Spot markets have been strong at rising prices with greater activity in business in this country and at Liverpool Manchester also has sent cheerful reports. Not few bearish despAtehes have been received from Liverpool but the general disposition here
