Cotton

In the absence Of reports indicating
any serious damage TO the crop by
frosts the cotton Varket developed
considerable weakness early yesterday,
with heavy selling by spectators who
had bought in anticipation Of further
impairr ant of the seasons yield much
I'm evidence.
After decline in the active months
ranging from 10 TO 20 points sudden
change OF sentiment came over the
trade. and the market advanced on
active buying, led by Western houses,
with a great deal OF buoyancy. the
close showing net gains OF 20 TO 90
points December contracts sold up 20
27G0. or 1l5 points above the low point
Of the morning. and closed al 21.37.
A more active spot demand. coupled
with large exports, tended to stimu-
late speculative purchases. while con-
tinued buying by Trade interests was
accompanied by reports that spinners
were fixing prices. Exports for the
day were S4.21s bales, making 1888
900 so far this season, compared with
1.27S,O90 last year. Southern spot mar
kets. as officially reported, were 20
points lower to 100 points higher, most
of the later markets being higher
