There was a good demand for cotton

lowing periods of unsettlement.
The weekly report of the Weather Bu-
reau proved to be favorable. as had been
expected, but as one trader put it. Slight
attention was paid to the finest state
ment of the season. Shorts were forced
to cover by the stability Of the spot
situation.
Except temporarily at the opening.
when prices dropped I to 10 points. the
early cotton market was quite steady.
1t almost Immediately recovered its loss
and was soon selling 2 to 4 points over
last nights close. Most of the selling
could be traced to poor cables. fine
weather and prospects for a bearish
weekly weather report.
The buyers were influenced chiefly by
firm spot news, more optimistic reports
from the wal areas and a belief that
vessel construction was becoming 80
large and so far ahead of original CAL
culations that 1t might provide an earlier
outlet for cotton to European countries
than had been expected.
The early advance carried the market
about 20 to % points net higher. but
met some realizing far over the weekly
weather report which reads quite as IA
vorably as had been expected.
July reacted to 24.S5c. with the gen.
eral list working about 2 to 5 points
net lower, but. except for proit-taking.
the favorable crop statement seemed to
inspire nc pressure M the market soon
rallied again, making new highs for the
movement, with July selling uD to 26.15c,
or 81 points net higher and 210 points
above the recent low lever.
