Cotton

Barring brief period early in the
session, the general trend was strongly
upward in the cotton market. The adj
vance carried October up to 1893 and
December to 1923. new high records,
while later deliveries got up close to
the high marks established on Thurs
day. Closing prices were at or close TO
the top for the day being from 10 to
20 points higher than on Friday.
The early easiness was owing in part
to generally satisfactory weather over
the belt, which was mainly responsible
foi the heavy selling for Southern &C
count against the actual cotton. Ore
interest alone sold about 10000 bales
OF December around 1903, but these
offerings were readily absorbed by
Leading trade interests, and the fact
that December advanced fully 90 points
afler taking in the large Southern sell
ing was regarded as a decidedly healthy
sign. In fact, good, consistent demand
for the December was noted throughout
the session, largely for the account of
Southern mills, and it was estimated
that fully 100000 bales of that delivery
were traded in.
So-called new buying for commission
houses was also of large volume, and
many of the old bull traders who had
recently taken in profits were evident
II anxious to reinstate their lines. A
feature which caused the sharp bulge
lust before the close was the decidedly
brisk buying by Wall Street traders. 1t
was said that many of the large stock
houses who sold short heavily on Fri
days peace rumors were anxious to
cover. II became known to ring trad
err that there were large "stop-loss"
orders in the market to buy January at
II 30 and March at i7.40. To use "a
market term, some of the big ring trad
erg were cunning" for these orders.
and finally succeeded in catching them;
These orders, it was said, aggregated

Argentina, accompanied by additional
complaints from more extensive area.
As result, the Rosario market was
1izc higher, while Buenos Ayres ad-
vanced 1$sc to 3ac. Liverpool also
turned strong after early weakness,
closing 1isd to Sd higher, partly be-
cause of the Argentine news and partly
on fears of renewed submarine activity,
which would doubtless restrict importa-
ton.

weakness was caused chiefly by fine
weather West and unfavorab e cables;
the latter mainly owing to weaker
freights in Argentina. In the late
trading the rise was partly with wheat
