Options cloned from 2 to 3 points higher than the previous day's levels, while apot sales are assuming a decidedly better basis. Ten thousand bales have been sold today at an ad vance of 1 point. Today’s early ses sion was very nulet, but after the noon hour considerable selling was indulged In with July the center of at tack. This new turn of affair* waa attributed to the liquidation of the long Interest. The weather map, de spite the fact that no mine fell In Texas, waa generally considered fa vorable. The forecast for tomorrow for the western belt, however, aeems to Indicate that the weather Is unset tled over Texas and showers are pre dicted for the northern portion of the state, where they are not needed. The visible statement Is again expected to be bullish, and from the comparatively small amount of cotton Into sight for the week—namely. 48.000 bales—and the decrease In receipts and heavy In crease In shipments of the Bombay movement, seems to give good grounds that these expectations will be fulfill ed.

Caupht a Sea Serpent. From Th* New York American. After enjoying line bass fishing In the streets of Harlem, ths boys of that section of Manhattan yesterday exhib ited the largest snake that ever was displayed In the city outside of a reptile house. With the Iridescent color* of ths famed okapi and measuring 15 fast 7 Inches, aside from Its mashed head, th* reptile was hauled out of Ih* river by Intrepid small hoys, after It* discovery by Captain "BIR" Woods, watchman on the Third avenue bridge. Wllh the well-known methods of tha Court of Bojrvllle, the youngsters proudly care rled the hug* serpent on ten barret stave* through the streets of upper Manhattan. The appearance of the make pro cession In front of a cafe at Lexington avenue nnd One Hundred and Thirtieth street created a small-atsed riot among the habitues nf the place.

Wllh due appreciation of th* occa sion, th* policemen along the lino nf march failed to make any demonstra tion against tha snake bearers, and the procession moved, unmolested, along One Hundred and Twenty-eighth street Into Park avenue, to Ono Hundred and Twenty-ninth street, to Lexington ave nue and On* Hundred and Thirtieth street. Large crowds viewed th* rep tilian wonder, which waa declared by all to bo th* longest leviathan that languorously lay upon th* limpid watare of the Harlem.
