COTTON WENT TOA
 !. BRISK RISE, WITH MARCH AT RECORD
General List Closed Steady At a Net Advance of 45 to 79 Points Over
 Tuesdays Finals
By AssseIatsd Prsss

New York. February 25.-There was a
 sharp advance in the cotton market to- day, with March contracts making a new high record for the season, while
 later months made new high ground for
 the movement. May selling at S5 ,1lc or Sl
 points above the closing price of yester- day. and S61 points above the low level reached on the break early in the month
 That delivery closed at S4.96o, with Ne
 general list closing steady at a net ad- vance of 45 to 79 points. The market opened steady at an advance of to b
 points in response to relatively firm cables
 and after some little irregularity turns. irmer on Liverpool buying, calling by do- destic spinners and covering by Wall street or local shorts.
 After showing net advances of about 60 or 70 points there were reactions of 2O or % points under realizing and scattered southern selling, but the offerings were
 of the day were reached in the late trad ing. when March sold at 37.63c, July at 2.74c and October at 30.5Sc, or 70 to & points net higher. The Close was a few points off from the best under real izing. Reports that some of the smalldr European countries such as Poland and Czecho- -Slovakia were making some p0o- gress with arrangements to finance inn pcrtations of cotton, and the steadier rul- ing of foreign exchange since the break or yesterday morning. may have been fac tors on the advance. Local brokers, how ever, attributed the buying chiefly to cov- ering by Liverpool and speculative shorts, and the demand for May and July was
 stimulated by tho continued absence of
 March notices or any appearance of spot pressure. Very few spot advices were received from tho belt, but there were ono or two wires in reporting an in- proved demand and Liverpool said the
 late advance there was due to Manches- ter buying or trade calling
