Cotton had good week, last week.
 When the market closed yesterday, a bale of cotton was worth about $250 more in Liverpool than it would have brought the Saturday evening previous. At New York. the gain for the week was about $3.50, while New Orleans, showed about the sane in- creasc in value for the peried.
 The greater part of tae gains wss i'll the week, th2 market held just about the same level of values, nov ing up and down < bit, but apparent ly playing a waiting game"
 Indica tions are now that the WIS 1ather had something to dc with the increase in values, and it is also understood that the strengthening of the Anslo-French position in the Bal kans was a favorable factor
 Whatever the cause, however, the fact remains that cotton increassd in value. A summary of the situation is thus given by the Pine Bluff Cot ton exchange. in its daily report is sued yesterday:
 LlNcIpOOl was uuc lO o72 up, closed PIP up fer the day, 51 up for week end. New York opened 19 to 9 up, thereafter extremely active within fifteen point ranges, final 20 @22 up for the day, 70@79 up for the week with spots 70 up. New Orleans 20 up for the day, 71@74 higher for the week. spots 56 up."'
 Pine Bluff Is Richer.
 In the past two weeks, the price of cotton, January dalivsry in particular has increased just about $5 per bale,
 There are approximately 40,0o0 bales of cotton stored in warehouses and presses and cotton yards in Pine Bluff
 As a result of the increaso in prics the past fortnight, this cotton, owned and stored in Pine Bluff, is worth something like $2o0oo0 more than it was worth two ,weaks ago-'Pine Bluff is therefora, just $2o0,O00 richer, than it was at that time.

this amount must be added the eX-
penses of large force of veterinary
inspectors, the cost OF slaughtering,
the stock, the digging of the trenches
