Indicating the authority of the powers-that-be over the trend of price*. After the opening, however, it seemed to lie the unittiliuouN opinion of the local crowd that prices hud gone low enough for the time being, hence they covered their shorts and weut long for a turn, the I tetter buying causing u steady upturn during the morning. . The trade In general scorns to be ns much at *ca concerning the outlook now as tic- fore the ginning re|H*rt. but the consen sus of opinion np|H>ars- to l»e that the re port represented lietwecn 79 and 75 per cent of the crop. If the former, the yield will be 12,187,143 bale*, nml If the hitter 11,374.667.
