disease that is killing the animals

 Advance.

New York. April s.-May cotton sold at S14.s9 in the closing minute of the cotton exchange session today or Si.9O above the low level of the week. The day was notable not so much for the volume of trading as for thc timidity of the speculative shorts who were finding if difficult to cover and clearly feared q squeeze. Their atti tude was in sharp contrast to that Of a few days ago when it was con fidently asserted that the bull cam paign had collapsed. with heavy losses to James A. Pattcn of Chicago and his southern associates.
 After the close it was widely ru- mored that the bull leaders were ready to accept all deliveries on near months contracts The arrival of 10.900 bales from Liverpool. first of the shipments which it was expected will reach 50 900 bales. failed to reassure the shorts and the situation in May continued to overshadow all the remainder of the market.
