A grand total of 1920 to 1887 per-

STORMY WEATHER MAKES
COTTON PRICES GO UP
By Making Planting Less
Favorable

It's an i'll wind that blows no good,
and the storm winds prevailing Re.
Gently have had the effect of boostins
cotton values. Yesterday the market
made gain of fifteen points, and
Americas warehousemen and buyers
express the belief that weather con-
ditions now prevailing will cause a
still greater advance.
Crop planting conditions are far less
favorable, due to the recent heavy
rains, while the fear of another flood
in the Mississippi delta, which would
mean the inundation of many cott,n
plantations, adds to the general ner-
vousness of the cotton market.
Twelve to II Is cents for the finer
grades were the prices quoted in
Americas yesterday, but no sales were
reported. Buyers are not anxious to
get into the market, under present UNI
settled conditions, while the 500 or
900 bales of cotton held here are not
being forced to sale.
