Cotton Up in Liverpool Market Soars and Stalls
The Liverpool cotton market opened with a 5 point rise amid American gains. Prices climbed to 65 points in late afternoon, closing strong at 67 points up for near four months and 64 to 66 for distant positions. With 250,000 bales stored, the day’s rise implies a large value shift, yet trade was paralyzed as buyers hesitated. In Lancashire, yarn and cloth trade slowed, while producers sought protection through higher rates. Eight federal convicts escaped Tacoma’s McNeill Island penitentiary, using small boats after disabling the government launch. Norfolk and Newport News steamers of Norfolk & Washington Co. offer connections to New York and Boston. see page 5.
