New York Cotton Letter.
1 New York,
April 20. There was
. a renewal of the excited general
buying in the cotton market today
and all positions made new hi eh
records tor the movement owing to
bad weather in the south and appre
(tensions or continued showers or
rains over Sunday.
First prices were from 8 to 17
points higher, and while realizing
was sufficient to cause some irregu
larity the big offerings were readily
absorbed and the market during the
middle of the morning sold about 18
to 19 points net lusher.
This advance carried October con
tracts up to 11.70 or 3 points above
the high records of Thursday, and
near enough the 12-cent level to in
spire more or less confident predic
tion of 12 cents before close of next
week. The ; weather map showed
pretty general rains in the south,
and the official forecast was for un
settled weather' and showers in the
eastern, central and northwestern
sections of the south today and to
morrow.; Many of those who have
been most optimistic are now be
coming discouraged owing to the
continued rains, and the best that
can bet got in the way of a new
crop start now will leave it subject
to damage from even an average
killing frost, and liable to suffer
in the. event of any unfavorable con
ditions for persistent cultivation
during the growing season.
The market closed steady.

exports of cotton to India and China
arc remarkable as the former coun
try Is the second largest cotton oro-
ducing country and China the third.
The exportation to India Is caused
by a decreased production and the
poor Quality of cotton of the last
year's crop. The exports to China
have Increased by reason of a varlotv
of catises the comparatively low
price of American cotton; the hold
ing back of 'Home cotton for higher
prices and the disturbed conditions
In that country. The large Increase
In the exports to Japan Is caused by
the comparatively low price of
American cotton, as that country al
ways buys large quantities In years
of low priced cotton.
