The frequent but (effectual at tempts to mould opinion with more fnvi had to con feud with. The Inherent weak ness of the situation is largely attribut able to the superabundance of current sup plies, or plnluly speaking, the weight of thenrtunl cotton and also to the hand- to-mouth policy which the world’s spinners have assumed.

COUNTED THE BALES BEFORE GINNED New York. Nov. 9.—The Hun says: “An irly advance was due to the fact thnt tno Liverpool market wus stronger than ex pected. covering by aborts, some general buying for a rise nnd quite a demand from creased somewhat, and the Idea uil the morning was that the effect of even a bear ish glnners' report had becu discounted In the recent marked advance. R. L. Neill, of New Orleans, estimates the crop at U,- 789.000 f»ales, which fa much the largest of ony thus far made. He puts the season's supply at 16,190,000 bales. Including a vis ible supply on August 31, 1906, of 915,000 bales; stock of American mills August 31. 1906 «per census), 676,000 bales: stock of European mills August 81, IWi. 819,000 bale*, nnd a crop which he puts at 18,780,000 bnles. The trouble with the bears of late has been that they have been counting the bales before tney wero ginned. Instead of 7,150,18)0. as Is said to have Inen stated by the National Glnners' Association, amount ginned * * * - - short of 6,900,0 INirtliig to tlx ... Hu* effect was n sharp advance.' New Orleans. Nov. 9.—The Times Demo crat says: “Though well on the bull aide of logical expectations, the census bureau's report of cotton ginned to Novemlier 1— 6.892.000 bales— failed to inspire very much fresh active <*otifldvnce of consequential character in the ultimate fortunes of the staple, and yesterday's cotton market left thp talent In about the same slough of dount that has hampered speculative opera tions during so tunny days past. Guessing contests can not solve the riddle of th»*out- turn, hence the caution that prompted scalpers' trading, rather than new buying ami selling for a long null. There Is yet no proof that the yield Is to pan out In excess of the world’s requirements, uml honservatlve Europe should render signal calculation of the rings. Meanwhile, sober reflection may effect a chnuge for the better in professional opinion, lu thla con nection, It Is well to remember that cron expectations, predicated upon such evi dence us the augmented sale of hugging and tics, are not wholly trustworthy fc* STOCKS REVIEWED BY NEW YORK SUN New York, Nov. J.—The Sun «ay«: "Price, ■ of eecurltlea made net de cline, ycterday largely, aa seemed, be cause of a sharp advance In the call money rate on the stock exchange. In the earlier part of the day a more hopeful feeling regarding the Imme diate future of the market undoubtedly prevailed. The Bank of England did not advance It* discount rate, and anx ieties regarding a possible advance In the bank's rate In the near future were allayed by the publication of the Insti tution's statement of conditions, the other hand, some uneasiness was expressed In speculative circles over the possible effect market-wise - of the election, as now appears assured, of an attorney general In the state who la supposed to hold the views regarding corporations entertained by the de feated head of the Democratic ticket. Still the course of prices seemed to make further demonstration of the fact that stocks arc at present lodged in strong, rather than weak, bands. tHat the market was one that was thor oughly under control. Nevertheless, the stiffness of both chII and time money rates In the afternoon naturally caused more or less selling of stocks.
