Ayery's Letter

Today's cotton market again showed symptoms of case of nerves. Liverpool followed up the display of strength yes terday with good opening this morn ing, quotations being several points bet ter than due. Our market opened some 10 points higher and worked up to level about 30 points above yesterdays close, at which level it met liquidating sales. After selling off a few points large stop orders were ran into which started longs to cover, bulls withdrawing their sup port and resulted in a sharp break of 50 points from the high level of the morn ing.
 The weakness in the stock market over the peace talk and Mexican situation no doubt had disquieting effect on cotton and at the first show of weakness there was stampede.
 The spot situation, statistics and tech nical position of the market is strong, and I believe purchases made and backed up with liberal margins will prove prof itable c. F. AVERY.
