Bullish Tendency
Appears In Cotton
Markets In Spring

Wilmington. N. c.. Jan. 23.--Tight
cents middIing was quoted this week
for cotton by the Wilmington Cham
her of Commerce. this being the high
asst quotation of the present season
which began September I. There
was a decided hullsh tendency In all
the cotton markets and New York
quoted spot cotton at eight and half
cents.
There has been steady advance in
cotton for the Last three weeks, or
since tho close of the Christmas holt
days Tho market closed last Satur~
day in Wilmington at seven and three
quarters cents "A pound. An advance
of quarter of a cent yesterday was
regarded as most optimistic slcn.
There has been uo loss ia price on
the local market for the last six
weeks.
The advance in price since the
Christmas holidays IS in line with what
local observers of the market had eX-
pected. bullish tendency is usually
noted in the spring months and there
IL likely to be still further advance.
though IL Ia improbable that cotton
viii again this season reach anywhere
near the price 1t was bringing before
The beginning of the EUROPEAN War.
The advance In the spring months Is
attributed to "a variety of causes. one
OF which is that the usual rush oil
cotton to the markets that marks the
fall months has ceased. Another Is
that exports of the staple are increas-
ing now and there is a greater de-
maud for cotton.
Local observers Of the market also
point out that those Interested in get
ting the farmers to plant large crops
always try 10 advance the price at this
time OF the year. fntother words II
is said that New York bears always
become bulls about this time of the
year because it suits their purpose 10
have big crop planted. This Is given
as an opinion and not az a fact.
