Some operators expressed dlssppolnt
ment that the market did not advance
more on the sensationally bullish visible
supply statement of last night. The varl.

Spinners' takings for the week were put
at 264,000, against 236.000 last year and
LS3.WM In 1904. kuek seemed to be with
the bull camn although, of course, every
one had been expecting more favorable
statements after the season progressed.
No one, however, expected such a drop in
the supply as was shown. Spinners' tak
ings are now about 100,000 bales larger
thus far this season than they were two
vears ago but are still under the takings
at this time last year, the figure being
7.O0O.OUO. against 7. 76S.OOO and 7.O7.000 In
1904. There are many bulla who expect
to see the difference between tawlngs
this season and last season narrow ma
terially before long.
The market oiened firm at an advance
of 3 to 8 points on a strong opening In
New York. Liverpool futures were about
as expected on the fluctuations In the
American markets yesterday afternoon,
but the visible supply statement did not
have as great an Influence as was antici
pated. Soon after the opening offerings
were free but In a short time buying set
in In sufficient volume to more than ab
sorb the offerings and the market
str ngthened. Prices advanced, in the
trading up to 11 a. m. until they were
11 points higher than yesterday's clos
ing on the old crop positions und 6 up
on the new.
In the spot market there was good

New York, March 21. With a belter
Liverpool than had been expected our
market opened with a good tone but
with little outside business. Trading
was confined during the forenoon to local
operations and us offerings were limited
there was little difficulty In sustaining
prices and advancing them toward the
close. As the demand has been local so
the fluctuations. have reflected the
momentary temper and the tndlspositon
of the part of the bears to take advant
age of present high prices. IOcally the
market appears overbought, but so long
ns sellers do not appear the advance may
be continued. However, prices cannot In
variably move upward, ami many conser
vative operalors lire inclined to look for
a reaction while holding aloof for the!

Wew Tork, .March 24. The signifi

cotton statistics Is so oblivious us to
ralsa the question not whether cotton
will advance but of how high It must
go. I am a close student of figure-
and never have I seen any whton
pointed more Imtublttbiy to u complete
exhaustion of the available supply
that coiitlgeury is averted as It Is
sure to he, by a rapid and convulsive
rise In price. It to the prospeciivu
situation as regards the present crop
shall be added as now seems probable
tha fears of a late and Insufficient
yield next year, consequent upon a
wintry spring and vernal floods the
skepticism which the commencement
of the advance has been regarded
with May result In the most urgent
buying and wildest speculation that
tha cotton trade has witnessed for a
long time. An advancing market dur
ing the later half of the searon tvitn
diminishing supplies and good trade
a rery different thing from
a speculstluh which at the commence
ment of the seasons attempts to force
Impossible prices for the whole crop.
As the prospect of the new crop,
which Is far from reassuring, Is be
coming sux:h an Important factor, I
hall appreciate It If my correspond
ents throughout the Aiuth, will until
further notice telegraph me at my ex
pense, night rata, not mora thun ten
word, giving ma their Impressions at,
the outlook whenever it shall seem
to them in any respect abnormal,
