COTTON PRICES ON
 UPWARD TREND

New Orleans, May s.-High prices were reached by the cotton market here today by a continuation of the upward move ment which began yesterday. Bullish traders bought heavily and the demand from covering shorts was extensive. Ac- tive months were lifted IS to 24 points over yesterdays close. at the highest of the day. Late in the session there was a slight recession from the best levels under profit taking by the scaiping ele- ment. The close was at a net rise of lf to 21 points. Better political news. how eveA rains in the western belt and con- tinued fear of lower temperatures was the stimulating features of the early trading. and on them the market rose to IA points. Toward the middle of the day there were predictions of unfayorable weekly crop and weather accounts from the govern ment tomorrow and much also was made of tine spot demand. The market was at it's best around noon. Spot accounts held the market steady in the late session. Locally. spots were marked up 1S points on total sales of 321 bales. the largest days business in long time. Spot cen ters in the south generally reported higher prices. The tone on the close was steady.

Avery's Letter

Cotton prices today again moved up- ward influenced by continued bad wea ther in the west. advancing spot markets and the strength in Liverpool
 An analysis of the days trading does not indicate the public has taken hold and this bears out what I said sometime since, which was to the effect that spec ulative interest would come from the ac- tion of the market itself rather than from the causes that made the advance,
 All options closed at nearly the highs for the day. Liverpool is due ] to up in the morning. and I look for that mar ket to be full response to our ad- vance.
 The afternoon letters said much of the buying today in the New York market consisted or short covering and argued that the market was due reaction from the elimination of this short interest.
 My experience is that reactions in 2 bull market come from an overbought condition rather than from being evened up. Furthermore. there is a great deal of fallacy in this so-called long Or short interest Every buyer has to have a seller and vice versa.
 What is meant by these terms refers rather to the strength of the position of either longs or shorts. If. for instance, buyers had their lines bought at high prices. naturally their position would be a long interest. None of these conditions exist at present. and the fundamental fac tors of demand for the actual continues. and the prices for the same are keeping pace with futures which is an eminently healthy state of affairs. Don't wait for reactions which may not come Buy cot ton. c. F. AVERY.

Hubbard Brss. & Co.'S Letter

New Ycrk, May D. (Special.)-An active demand to cover May contracts that had been sold for is supposed to have been Wall street houses developed on the opening call, advancing prices sharply until met by the liquidating sales of cot ton merchants who had bought last week under a hsaief that the bullish sentiment would bring buying orders from this out standing short interest. There were other outside buying orders from the same source, all of which were supplied by the southern holders and these cotton houses.
 The feeling continues to be bullish on the ideas we have placed before you that the small supply in Liverpool would cause a demand in this country regard less of the large supply here. Rains have fallen in Texas. where our advices state they were needed. but the traders think theN will do damage. Rumors from Ger manl sources were unfavorable regarding the fu5marine question
 ThA sentiment continues bullish.
