TIMES DEMOCRAT SUMMARY.
(By H., V. & C.)
NEW ORLEANS. La., .lau. 5. 1905.
Spot buyers made concessions and
took all tho cotton they could get.
The rings talked bulllshly and seem
ingly little feared the coming bureau
report. Franco-German complications
were viewed with unconcern, and the
Russian situation appeared on the
rapid mend. Thus, yesterday’s cotton
market moved up a few pegs, the
world markets acting largely in uni
son. The revival of spot demand is of
course the mainspring of the rein
vigorated trading movement, the price
effect of which Is rendered the more
acute by the consistent attitude of
holders of the actual stuff.
Today the National Ginncrs' associa
tion will roport returns on December
31st, and on Monday the census bu
reau will make public its ginncrs’ re
port to that date. After these price
and patience disturbers shall havo
been got out of the way, professional
attention will once again be arrested
by the iigltlmate dally market factors.
The dwindling movemnt, the rapid
chewing up of spinners stocks of raw
cotton, the increasing difficulties ex
perienced by spot buyers in fulfilling
commitments and the gradual lifting
of the crop covering well.
There is a difference of only somn
half million bales In conservative bull
ish and bearish crop expectations. In
view of the possibility that, fulfillment,
of the maximum conservative guess
will but little more than supply re
quirements. close calculations for some
weeks to come may keep the talent,
in a keenly sensitive slate of ex
pectancy and susceptible to feeble as
well as trenchant influences.
There are now many reasons for be
lieving raw cotton will be scarce
enopgh before the season's end.

NEW YORK, Jan. 5. The bulls had
tlu- belter of the bears In the mar
ket yesterday. Liverpool showed
strength and there were many pri
vate cables In the market telling of
a lie tier feeling on the other side. As
a result the market opened up three
to 15 pointa.
March was in great demand yester
day and the story of a March ("inter

thing of the kind is attempted It w 11!

NEW Y’OKK, .lan 6.—The hulls
seem very confident. Stilly was re
ported to have turned hull yester
day. The National Oinuers will get
out ' a report today. Manchester
, yarns more demand, cloths, firmer.
The question now Is "how muny
bales can be delivered In March."
The National Dinners’ estimate on
the amount ginned to January I. Is
advertised to be about 9,600.000 liales.
Theodore H. Price cabled the fol
lowing yesterday: It now develops
that the advance in the cotton market
yesterday and today was for the most
part due to heavy buying by Stilly
and his following, who have been pre
viously short, have reversed their po
sit lon and are now thought l<> be
heavily long. The buying reported
from Alexandria Is thought to have
1 been title !•> bullish cables received
t here from Bully.
NEW YORK. Jan. 5. In the fact of
1 heavy hear pressure, the market in
the iate afternoon stood up remark
ably well, being sustained by a good
demand from German interests here
; and from Hayne at New Orleans.
Southern buying had a great deal to
do with tbe firmness and steady un
dertone of the market iu Hie lasi two
hours. New Orleans was a very
heavy buyer. There was considerable
covering of shorts around the room.
Those who hayc been short for pnst
week have turned great big bulls and
bought freely on the advance. The
National Dinners' report is expected.
As It Is reported and believed in
good circles, Sully has turned bull,
we would not lie surprised to see
something doing on one side or the
j other today.

TOWN TOPICS.
(By H., V. ft C.)
NEW YORK. Jan. 5. -Overnight,
i consideration of the speech of Jacob
1 H. Schlff before the Chamber of Com
rnerce yesterday and his resolution
with a view to bringing forward some
measure for the Improvement of our
currency system does not suggest, any
good reason for throwing over stocks
In the manner In which holders liqui
dated In the last hour yesterday. Mr.
Schlff calls attention to what every
body has regarded as a uad feature
of the situation and his statement
that we will pay dearly for the neg
lect In this matter simply confirms
the opinion of all Intelligent bankers.
The point Is that Mr. Schlff would
not. have made any such statements
at- the present time If he did not he
Hove that the critical period In the
money, market, had passed and this Is
confirmed by the decline in the rate
for call money yesterday afternoon.
1 Were It not for the fact, that, stocks
are concentrated In strong hands the
1 decline would have boen much great
er. As It is bullish sentiment has re
ceived a rather sharp setback and we
i must expect an Irregular market for
the next few days.
The London advices do not. show
i any uneasiness over there and while

our market Is likely to lie a little
lower In tho early trading, we look
for substantial sup|x>rt and for prices
to rnlly sharply following any Initial
decline.
The mere suggestion of it, possible
panic does not apply the existence
of such it panic and traders who Jump
ill conclusions and sell their stocks
arc likely lo recognise their error
later and Inly them back at higher
prices. The sharp reaction in the
Coppers Indicated all overbought, ron
dltton, but the strength in the Mor
gait Issues points to an Improvement
In that quarter of ihe market. We
consider the Hied stocks a good pur

There Is much hull Inlk on L. ft N

an area of low pressure over Florida
