Cotton Comment

NEW YORK, Feb. 1.-Cotton
opinions:
S. NJ. Weld & Co.-While the
market may not yet have emerged
from a scalping range, we feel that
the next important movement will
be upwards ana therefore, recon-
mend purchases on all weak spots.
j. S. Bache & Cove would not
be surprised to see this advance
continue further but on weak spots
believe cotton should be accumlat
ed.
Munds & Winslow-It looks to
us as if cotton were beginning to
respond to underlying conditions
and while the process might be at
tended by some irregularity we eX'
pect a distinctly better market.
Hubbard Bros. G. Co.-We think
the advance is likely to 60 further,
as the figures show plainly the
exhaustion of supply and there is
not as yet a commensurate curtail
ing in consumption.
OF Is cotton house opinions, 12
are bullish and noncommittal.

life, career and romance of Ma
poleon Bonaparte. the greatest
military genius of modern times,
which was presented for the first
