about two better than due. Spots un-
changed; sales. 5000 bales. Washington
says according to a cable report from
the International Institute of Agricul-
ture at Rome, the cotton raised in In

of 1912. Final returns of cleaned cotton
in India show an amount equivalent
to 1882, 301 gross weight bales of 500
pounds.
Liverpool developed further strength
in the last hour and cabled "spinners
calling cotton" Several New York
houses sent bullish wires this morning
referring to the existence of large
short interest and suggesting the pos
sibiity of a turn in the market after
notice day. The outside long interest
in March seems to be well liquidated
and tenders are likely to be promptly
accepted. as the New York stock is
shrinking and needed for the protection
of the large straddle short interests.
There was strong demand here this
morning from spot interest for March
contracts. Evidently the cheapness of
March tenders is being appreciated.
Our market opened about two points
higher and gained a few points more
in the early trading. holding steady
thereafter around 1888 for May. There
is a steady demand for spots and no
