ROME'S COTTON RECEIPT.
Receipts Last ; Week Were 3.186 Bales
Against 3 768 Lat Year.
Cotton went up yesterday five points,
making the total rise for the week about
18 points, > ,
Streets prices have been 6 1 Bto 6 1--4,
with a pretty steady inflow of the staple.
The receipts’for the past week are 3,-
186, bales same week last year, 3,011
bales, the year before, 4,028 bales, two
years ago, and 3,484 bales the year pre
vious.
Total to date, 7.538 bJes, against. 14,-
266 bales year ago, 5,535 bales two years
ago, 8,014 bales the year previous, and
7,347 bales four years ago.
Stock on hand, 2,320 bales, against 1,-
395 baits last year, 2,322 bales the year
before, I,779'bales three years ago, 1,-
820 bales the year previous.
The weather continues clear, no indica
tion whatever of rainfall. It has now
been almost two months since any rain
has fallen in this section—conseqently
cotton is dry and smoothly ginned. Ow
ing to the continued dry weather, the
staple is not as good as it promised to be,
but still is better than last year.
The coming week will probably see
very heavy receipts here.
