ltodJtoti, Saturday, Jn,nUary 7.
The bulls had doJlttedly lib better of
trailing today and nllhoiigli 11 was a short
day trading wns iltillo active.
Ltwrpaol ctbleo were very firm and en
couraging. SMlcs of spoks vore 12,000.
which Is largo tor Saturday. Futurea there
wero up l-6id.
The market on this shVo responded
promptly, butx after n spurt trpwaid lost
part cf tho advance. Tho light movement
nt pom and the moderate estimate for
-Monday wna a strong tcattiro. The belief Is
tbtt a greitor percent, of this crop than of
any previous on bna bca marketed and
a light movement Is looked forward to.
New Orleans was from 1 to -I points up
at tho Woso. New York closed at an ad
vance of 2 to 5 points.

Houston advanced Kcotl ordinary Ue and
other grades !4c. Tlio other American spot
markets aro nil up 1-IKc.
Carglll & Richardson say:
The cotton markets today wero of a de
cidedly bullish temperament. Liverpool
camo fully l-61tl hlghev on cantraots, and
reported 12,000 halts taken on Uio spot.
This was a very encouraging feature for n
Saturdny's market nnd evidently forecast a
n bolter demand from abroad for our spots,
which h.!o been s..idly neglected for some
time past, 'llcoolpla nl. tho ports, us well
ns estimate for Monday, wore again com
paratively light. Tho figures as given by
Secretary Heller jestcrilny on. tho Texas
movement were cons'dercd bullish, and, al
though trading today was limited, prices
told strady -all day. Sentiment continues
decidedly bullish, but nt Hid samo tlmo tho
bulls arc disposed to take profits on the
ndvunco, and on nity Indication of nn In
creasing movement there would bo largo
lli'cs of long cotton thrown on tho market,
of which there must certainly bo enough
to caitso a temporary decline at least.
Loihs as though cotton would be good
property on any recession, but io fenr tho
m-.irk.et must be liquidated some before any
niateiial advance can bo scored.
D. W. Hunter &. Co. say of today's cot
ton market:
Tho frock ends with a good bull day In
all markets, nnd sentiment continues most
favorable fir higher prices on all products
and socurlt.es. This feeling Is being di
rected more and mere to cotton at present
remarkably low prleca tml considerable
Immediate iniprovenKflt li generally ex
pected. Texas today continued as for the
past few dajs to bo tho bent buyers of cot
ten. tSie trade having almo3t unanimously
bocomia burWsh on the continued light run
of receipts. Th map and foieoasi show
fair uid warmer weather, but gathering
and uiarketiiig tho crop has been so serl
oualy totcrfered with by the ractnt tspell
of bad weather as to Insure light receipts
for 'the next week or two ot least, th'tio
being aio oic-cumulations to be cleared by
the iqlltonds. Tho rallroaJs aro noting a
decided falling off In receipts as compared
with last yu" and nn aro anxiously in
quiring tho rocson fcr this sharp decline lu
business. This nnd other reliable news
points to an ourly exhaustion, and the
fool. ng Is bccomilng general that the Texas i
nud tho total cren has been greatly over
estimated. Tiio public ncoui3 slow,' to come
in on the bull side of ocaton, but thero was
ta)r buying tcday nod' shorts covered, wbiirf
