to 10 points on old contracts nnd 10
to 21 points on new contracts.
There was good buing of the late
months by spot houses. Most of the
selling yns by the south nnd commis
sion Iirfuses, the latter taking profits.
The cnrly ndyawc tarried the market

making new high reiords. May sold nt
U7.02 nnd October at 'IA, or 420 to

month.
The advance was checked at these
prices by realizing, while there was
further scattered southern selling which
cnused reactions of some 17 to 124 points
fiom the best with the market showing
some uncertainty or hesitation.
According to some of the local spot
people, the south is beginning to with
diaw offerings of spot cotton, but the
scattered southern selling here suggested
that supplies were still available nrouud
the present level of prices nnd the situ
ntion in tliis respect promoted the dis
position to take profits on long con
