COTTON AT "a CENTS.

Springs and 60. Cotton IeILef.
Trade buying Of both spot and
future cotton has continued to ex-
pand, forcing shorts to abandon their
positions and bringing into the cot
ton contract market a number of
traders who have wearied of efforts
to encourage speculative interest on
the constructive side of wheat, corn
and oats. The advance has practical
ly carried from the 20-cent level to
"a cents, and it is apparently advis-
able to go somewhat slowly on new
commitments.
Profit taking when the 23-cent
level was passed was heavy but the
market wfthstood it well. Further
heavy selling was encountered when
the list went above $3.50 cents, but
the impact was we'll withstood. Cot
ton needs no strong arm method to
sustain it in its new trading zone, but
with the advance strong specula-
tive following has been created and
the next few weeks will undoubtedly
show increasing irregularities. 1t is
a trading market with numerous re-
curing opportunities for moderate
profits and we suggest that our
friends keep in close touch with US,
in order that they may be able to
make the best Of the situation.
The cotton crop appears to be
practically picked, and we estimate
that something like rs per cent Of
it has been ginned. The crop now
looks to be under 100000 bales
and at the rate mills are consuming
the staple and protecting their fu-
ture requirements the scarcity, which
we have persistently forecast all
this season since first the
size of the crop was measurable, is
going to be felt before the next crop
is seeded. .,.
It is difficult to tell how high cot
ton will sell over the next few
The price at which consump-
ton will be checked is difficult to
but it is likely it will
prove nearer to 80 cents than to rs
cents. In any event the prediction
we have frequently made, that Dec
ember will sell at rs cents before it
becomes the spot month, does not
now seem so fanciful as it appeared
to many month ago.
A new short interest has been built
up on the advance from $3.50 for
December. Feeling for the top of
the market has become the favoriteI
occupation of many traders who have
paid rather heavily for their convic-
lions that the advance was entirely
too rapid. The market is entitled to
q sizeable reaction and this would
not IN any way cause modification
Of the views so frequently expressed
here regarding the trend of cotton
values over the next few months. On
all recessions we suggest purchase of
December to May contracts, but at
The same time would impress upon
our clients the value Of keeping in
;ouch with trading opinion and with
the statistical developments as well
as with the progress Of mill buying. J

REVIVAL INTEREST
INCREASES DAILY.

The crowds are gradually increas-
ing at the Gospel meetings in the
Adams school auditorium. Last night
Evangelist Reedy greeted the aud
ience with another soul stirring SER
mon which was closely akin to the
great theme on the previous night.
Upon the theme of Jesus, The Son or
Man, and the Son of God, or was
Jesus the Christ" the speaker SAID;
The fundamental fact of Christian
ity is that Jesus is the Christ, the
Son of God. The Bible contains four
accounts of Jesus life. These ac-
counts reveal, invincible testimony to
this fact. Among the many lines OF
testimony followed by these writers
there is none more prominent than
their appeal to miracles.
The element of the supernatural
lies at the threshold of our salvation
for a religion without a mystery IS
an absurditv. The miracles thai at
| test Jesus to be divine are OF two
classes: First. those that Jesus per-
| formed on and for the benefit of 9TH
| ers. and second, those that were per-
formed by the Father on the person
| of Jesus. The last mentioned class
| is the greater and there are seven OF
these in number, namely, incarnation

fixion, resurrection. ascension. coro-
