COTTON— cotton market was more active and
firmer yesterday with prices closing at a net advance of
4 to 7 points and sales estimated at 125.000 bales. The
market opened steady at an advance of 3 to 5 points In
response to higher cables than expected and covering of
nearby shorts; May notice* for about 1.200 bales were
Issued, but had no effect on the market, and the steadier
tone of the stock market after th» unsettled opening was
a favorable Influence. The weather was good on the
average, and more bearish private reports were reserved
from the Eastern belt, but there seemed to be little south
ern selling, and after some Irregularity immediately after
the opening, the market did better and closed very eteadv
at the top point of the session, and within 1 to 2 point*
of the highest point for the week. According to official
reports Southern spot markets were unchanged to l-16c
higher, but private wires received reported very little de
mand, and there were some reports of a less active de
mand for good* for both Immediate and forward ship
ments. Mills are supposed to bo well sold ahead, how
ever, and takings are expected to make a bullish showing
for some time to come. The into sight for th*> week was
a shade under estimates, according to the New York fig
ures, and a good decrease was expected in the world's
visible supply statement to-morrow. There Is some com—,
plaint of too much rain In th« Central and Western belt
and talk of grass and weeds, with labor rather scarce, but
the showers reported In the eastern belt were considered
beneficial, and the forecast was for clear to cloudy
weather.

very favorable for planting. Interior receipts again great

BUTTEB— Receipts to-day, 4,176 pkgs. There was a
little shortage of fancy fresh creamery to-day, and buyers
had is do more shopping than usual in order to supply
their requirements. This gave the market a little firmer
tone, and while 200 remains the basis of settlement for
most of the regular trade some of the business on the
Street was at 20V»©204c for fancy grade*, Secondary
qualities are still moving slowly, and the market for
such la quite unsatisfactory. Held creamery occupies a
small place in the trade at present: there Is no further
change in values. Renovated, factory and packing st'jck
all very slow and top quotations are full high. «•
