Market Quotationa For Week Ending Maz_}g. 1914 el
REVIEW OF COTTON MARKET
Bullish erop advices, strong Liverpool cables and -ma{ accumulation of
old crop positions by the h:g:rpgwt interests throughout the week failed to
bring about an advance in ce of cotton the past week, and the mar
ket remained rather stagnant and featureless with only a small amount of
business doing, and this was attributed mainly to professionals undoing New
York-Liverpool straddles. E?loution as to the continued apathy on the
{nrl of the public is attributed to the uncertainty as to the outcome of the
nited States-Mexican affair and the general po?i'ucol situation. These facts
are ks-opln? the speculative element at a low ebb. Trade conditions are very
good, but far from satisfactory, and the demand for cotton ?Od' is poor.
Spinrers are curtailing their output, which has been made obvious of late
by the small spinners’ takings. Week after week, spinning interests are
curtailing their stock.
H"Mfi liguidation credited to recent bulls was the feature of the cotton
market the past week. Under the weight of these offerings that position
broke 12.18 last Wednesday and repeated the same Monday. when the mar
kel encountered considerahle ofleri!ulfis. owing to the faet that the New York
contract market did not respond fully to the advance due on Liverpool ca
bles. There was 20 support in pariicular, and the ring professionals, Wall
street and long® ligquidated at will, eausing prices to uf within 3. goims of
the low level iast week, when July New gork sold at 12.15 cents. Crop ad
vices received by private brokerage firms were of more favorable character
as to conditions throughout many sections, Forecasts of unsettied weather
coming on the belt during the week served to check free offerings to some
extent, causing the list to sell up several points from the low mark of the
day, but sti!l the market bore the appearance of having a week undertone,
‘;rul_mhly as a result of heavy buying recently, that will sundoubtedly be
iquidated on further favorable crop news. However, the condition of the
Western crops, especially Texas, is regarded as very unfavorable, owing to
the lack of labor and the lateness of the crop, which ranges from 3 to 4 weeks
late. It was this fact, together with reports from well-informed crop re
porters that the crop was going to be late throughout the area, and reports
of heavy buying by millg, that started the ~last bull campaign and forced
the list within a few points of the 13-cent level. Adverse wealher and crop
reporis changed sentiment considera-bly, and those who are still inclined to
the bull side are very cautious in taking on additional supplies, except old
crop months, that can be sold at a moment’s notice.
Many Kkeen judges of conditions and of the cotton plant say, with much
assurance, (Pat the so-ealled improvement in the crop is more apparent than
real. ‘They Insist that because of the excessive rains in the western States,
the plant is not having to grow down for moisture, and will lack.the tap-root
necessary 10 withstand a hot July and August. On the other hand, there are
those who safi' that the prospects are for another big yield and that condi
tions, with the exception of the late start in Texas, could not be better.
The condition over the eastern and central belt show that the crop Is
steadily improving and is f}laced far above normal.
Pianting in Alabama is practically finished, say advices from - Mont
gomery dated May 1, and about 76 per cent of the cotton is up to healthy
and almost perfect stands. Chopping s in full progress. The writer adds:
“Labor is plentiful, and the ideal weather conditions prevailing have enabled
our planters to push along their flelg work, and we believe the crop is con
siderably further advanced than this date last year. We are of the opinion
that theére is a slight increase In acreage, possibly 2 to 3 per cent over last
year. With a continuation of the decidedly favorable weather conditions, we
consider the crop prospects in our State the brightest they have been In
many years at this time of the season. So far as we have been able to
learn, not a single compiaint has been heard as to any unfavorable condi
tions prevailing up to this time. We regard this as the most unusual and
almost unheard of during our experience.”
Advices from Georgia are of the most favorable character. Many de
clare stands are the best in years, saying that the spring has been perfect in
most sections and that planting is finished throughout South Georgia and
that good stands have been secured south of Macon and conditions are
tavmafim- for rapid prosecution of farm work and there is plenty of time for
a full crop.
At the present writing, weather news is favorable and progress of plant
ing is general. Within a short time it can be known for a certainty whether
the crop as a whole is late. The gist of present information is that it will
easily measure up to an average start. Texas appears to be getting all of
its rain at once. g
The recent rains may have delayed planting in many sections of the belt,
but are putting a reserve sup?ly of moisture in the ground which will be
drawn upon in case of drouth during the summer, which is usually tlmi
case.
TUESDAY'S REVIEW. :
NEW YORK, May 12 —Liverpool ca
bles were again higher tnhan due to-day,
and the local cotton market opened in
sympathy, showing prices 2 to 7 points
higher than Monday's close. The tone
wai steady.
The continued strength shown by the
Engish market is attributed to reports
that 200,000 bales of cottemn offered on
contracts there las. weex proved unten
derable, so that the spinners are com
pelled to pay more for their commodity.
In addition to this, the weather map
was not as good as generally expected,
showing cloudiness to rains over the
larger part_of the belt, with indications
pointing to further cloudiness and pre
cipitation over many sections where it
is not needed
The larger spot intersts, including the
large Philadelphia spot houses, were
prominent on the buying side. This
class of buying was Lned on weather
conditions. Their buying was mainly of
old crop positions, However, there was
a good demand for October and Decem
ber. Liverpool came in this market
with good buying orders, which caused
general nervousness among shorts, who
ran to cover. This gave the market a
healthier tone and checked offerings, re
sulting in a rapid advance of 5 to 12
points from the opening range. Old
crops showed the greatest strength.
The unfavorable weather conditions in
Texas was a great help to the market.
_‘The weekly Government report was
much more bullish than expected. The
repott speaks of drouth damage in the
Atantics, and points out defects in
Texas by excessive rains and cold
wedather, ’ el i
A continuation of the early demand
throughout the afternoon session, based
on the decidedly bullish weekly weather
report issued by the Government at
noon, caused a general short covering
movement, resulling in the entire list
advancing sharply. New crop positions
were in much better demand than they
were durlnf the initial trading. There
was very little cotton for sale.
At the close the market was firm,
with prices showing a net advance of 11
to 22 points from the final quotations
of Monday.
Istimaled cotton receipts:
Wedueadag'. 1913,
New 0rfean5........ 2,200 to 2,800 4.735
Galveston .......... 4,000 to 5000 2498
NEW ORLEANS, May 12.—-Weather
developments are entirely as predicted
and are distinctly unfavorable, The
map shows fair weather in the eastern
States, cloudy in the western and cen
tral States, with general rains and un
seasonably cold weather in the north
western quarter. Temperatures in North
Texas and Oklahoma, 42 to 44 degrees.
Wehther on this account. or more
likely for reason of the bullish supply
and trade conditions, Liverpool was
again very strong, with old crops 7 to
8 points mher than due and new crops
about 4 nts better than due. Spots
5 gghua higher; sales 8,000 bales.
r market opened about 7 points
higher and showed a decided tendency
Yo advance, which is only checked by
advices from New York showing a
bearish inclination there.
The trade hardly realizes the unfa
vorable start and condition of crop over
a very Ilrfin:errflm'.\ The lateness of
the crop a is & menace and & very
bullish factor in respect to old crep
positions,
Owing to some suspense in mill ae
tivity during the Easter periodfi the
eonoumgt.lon by our mills during April
has pro bl{ebeen a little less than last
year, and the Census report on ,supply
and distribution for the month of April
t;oflapm:md a uin.le tbeurtsh. The re
will & n a few days,
uvmu that large calling by
spinners caused the advance there.
The market continued firm, with July
working to 12.7%, October to 11.77. Bids
for large blocks of July fetched only
a few hundred bales, showing the
scarcity of cotton and sellers and that
the amrket has drifted lower in the past
