as the most prominent feature of the
irly trading on the New York stock mar
ket today'. Demand for this stock ap
parently fell off entirely during the last
few days, and It suffered a price deprecia

about 6 per cent. Today’s pressure drove
It down 2 per cent further, making a
new low record for It.
Moderate strength was shown in the
usual active Issues, but the volume of
business was small and price movements
of the leaders were narrow and of little
significance.

witnessed In the cotton trade. A sensationally high estimate has been ,
pected since the government ginning report as of December 1, as It shA,.ii
3,806,000 more bales have actually been ginned than In the year of the nr
vlous high record for the period—1908. when the crop exceeded 11
hales, according to Secretary Hester. . no,000
This ginning report Waa regarded as distinctly bearish, as Indicative
a total production well above 10,000,000 hales, Including 1 Inters and r
packs, and as foreshadowing an estimate of the government tancine
tween H.Too.mm an,I lO.Kio.nnn bales. " s
All things considered, the popular Interest In the estimate has not been
equaled since December 3, 1003. when the government, after the trade's er>
estimates had ranged from Stilly's 9,875,000 bales to Neill's 11 100 000
out the figures 9,962.039, which came within 49,000 bales of the actual vlnM
ns stated nine months later by Secretary Hester, of the New Orleans Cit
ton'Exchange. That was a highly sensational estimate; yit cotton rn'2

later, fat, and will top our market.
Conditions were never more favorable
for farme.rs to feed cattle; cotton send
meal and hulls are selling at sacrifice

next spring unless all signs fail.
Sheep and lamb receipts continue light.
