tificated stock OF March cotton

on that delivery, brought about an
advance of more than SO cents a bale

The circulation of this large number
of notice was not wholly unexpected,
however. so that trading continued
a moderately active pace. Specula-
tive interest was conferred mainly
about the vanishing position.
Other factors to influence better
buying were higher Liverpool cables,
than had been expected and that the
other foreign markets were stronger.

weather In western Texas. with tenn.
peratures bei0w the freezing point.
Manchester trade advices also we're
