SUBSTANTIAL RISE
IN COTTON MARKET
7Ass BALES RECEIVED IN DAW-
SON. GOOD COTTON SELL
ING AT IS Ia CENTS.

There had been 7,458 bales of cot
ton received at the five Dawson ware
houses Tuesday morning at 10 o'clock
and the market, which showed more
than a one cent increase since last
week, had an upward tendency.
There was a very sharp and more
or less excited advance in the cotton
market to-day, with December con-
tracts selling up to 1889 or 38 points
above the level of a week ago. Clos
ing prices were very steady within z
or 8 points of the best and from 30
to 36 points net higher.
The market was somewhat lrregu-
lar during the early trading, with
prices fluctuating between bullish
crop advices and expectations of a
rapidly increasing movement. Liver
pool was better than due and after
opening at an advance of to 9
points active months sold II to 10
points net higher. This advance met
considerable cotton, attributed partly
to Southern hedging, and there were
reactions of or points from the
best during the middle of the morn
ing.
Reports of easier freight rates for
September sailing from New York to
Liverpool probably promoted the late
advance, while there was trade buy
ing as we'll as active covering by Wall
street and other shorts.
In the local market fully good mid
ding is bringing IA IA cents, good
middling is Is Is cents and middling
Is cents.
