DAILY COTTON LETTER

NEW ORLEANS, Sept. 1S-Liverpool
came in surprisingly steady this morning
with futures about points better than
due; spots, points higher; sales 5000
bales
This resistance to the decline is ex-
planned by the frequent manifestation
of a bull pool in New York and the fact
so far are very light. This is due to
two causes: The later crop outside of
Texas and to the disturbed moving facili-
ties in Texas, high freights, scarcity of
tonnage, congestion at the presses and
car shortage. San Antonio prints the
following: Congestion at the press and
car shortage are 50 great that the eX-
port movement TO Galveston is considera-
bly, hampered."
A cable said: Advance due to trade
buying"
The contract market eased after the
higher opening and ruled dull Further
strength in Liverpool toward the close
Mitchell for the fall interests caused an
advance of Is points in the second hour.
There is no opposition. Selling is timid
and the market advances on little buy
ing
Some advices are received from Texas
of a better demand and spot holders are
firmer. Spot business very quiet here.
Further reports from New York show
that the market was stimulated by fear
of frost The government says nothing
about frost, nor is there any ground for
it All we get is the first cool wave
which last year came as early as Au-
gust 30 and caused tempera lures as low
as 81 in north Texas and Oklahoma.
This year the cool wave comes nearly
three weeks later than last year and is
not even as pronounced as il was then.
