New Orleans, March 17. — The In creasing. confidence that the foreign market exhibited caused a little spurt In options there and the closing re corded an advance of 8 points over yesterday’s closing prices. Spot sales were fair for Saturday, 6,000 baleB at/ points advance. Early cables ex pressed the view that, a large short Interest had gradually accumulated and that the covering of a part of which was responsible for the better market In Liverpool today. The bullish visible and the Increas ing willingness that the market dis plays to responding to favorable Influ ences caused a steady advance in the session here today. Local shorts showed no hesitancy in covering, be ing rather fearful of the attitude that the former bear leader would definite ly assume, although reports were to the effect' that he favored the bull side. The reaction that has been ob served of late, If stripped of any In spiration, would doubtless have oc curred when consideration is taken of the heavy and somewhat" unexplain able decline observed during the early part of the week, but lately there have eolne into the market affairs influ ences that must be reckoned with, such as a decrease In the total visible supply for the week of 126,000 bales, and a momentous decline of receipts at interior points, with n healthier and more active demand for spot cotton, which, so long as they continue, and in the absence of speculative pressure, must exert a relative and fundamental basis of support. Hence, for the pres ent, these improvements seem indica tive of a further advance, but a pen dulum-like swing in prices will.be in fluenced by surface conditions. GIBERT & CLAY, Messrs. Ed.
