COTTON MARKET.

The cotton market continued its rally
yesterday and aided by trade buying,
Liverpool support and active demand
from shorts, rose approximately 40 to
60 points on trading months and 80 on
October. Business. although not as
broad as 1t was on Tuesday. was an
mated during much of the session and
continued mixed. Most buying was
traced to the strength and the more OPP
timistic tone of Liverpool cables. More
favorable rumors regarding the coal
strike were heard and may have added
to the shorts uneasiness. During much
of the day the list was only few
points better than Tuesdays final
prices. a sagging tendency which did
not disappear until the last half hour
being evident after the opening. Ac-
time.
Prices We're 20 to 80 points higher at
the outset The tone was firm to
strong during the first few minutes. but
not long after the call the market
showed signs of Southern selling and
decreased demand by shorts. Bulls
called attention to the somewhat better
stock market and reports of a sitter
spot basis In the South, but the bearish
weekly weather report easily offset those
factors. The weather report caused
renewed professional pressure and about
midday many months were around
Tuesdays final level Ideal conditions
were said to have prevailed over most
of the belt during the week.
The early part OF the afternoon saw
the market featureless and not much
changed. prices ruling generally at
gain of about to 20 points. Many
traders did nothing. Commission houses
acted on both sides. Japanese inter-
ests bought some cotton, their contracts
being supplied chiefly by the South and
spot houses Late In the day there
was aggressive local buying and when
shorts attempted 70 cover. they found
contracts scarce, prices soon making
new high for the day More optimis-
tic news from banking circles was said
to have created that new buying. The
market closed at the top, 45 10 80
