A dispatch rroin New York under

or $9.50 u Pal?*, it has become known
thet a new "Cotton King" luis risen
la the Iluanttal world, one whose
operations have played havoc with
tho bears in the colton p|| .ind have
assisted in cornering dir .inly ont ion.
J. (,. Livermore's mime was on tho
lips ol' every ono in I lie colon non
ket Thursday ns the price of July,
which lins boen steadily souring, shot
up from $9.10 to |9;90, a gal ti ol'
$2.50 a hal?.
Aa the price ot' the Staple continued
to mount, the four-stricken men who
had sold July short contracts hogan
to say thal the market foi* July col
Ion was cornered mid thai ;i new Ma
poleen of the ciiion market had nri.<

Since April L'S, when July colton

to make initiions more If his plans
don'l miscarry, but ho says lhere is
no pre-a ria aged deal, so fill' ns he
knows, to corner July coll?n.
Nevertheless, the cotton trade wa\<
as excited as il was hi tho days O?
Sully and the New Orleans crow.I
headed hy NV. 1\ Itrowii, when similar
coups were attempted and carried
Un otigh successfully.
"Who is Livermore'.'" was one of
the ipiestioas generally asked. "Who
