Clark & Company’s Cotton Letter New 1 York, Sept. 26.—Cotton went well into the new highs today on further covering by nervous shorts, a moderate trade demand and local buying. Contracts were supplied by hedge selling and profit taking sales. The main basis for the strength was de creasing crop ideas due to unfa vorable rains in the Carolinas and Georgia and a forecast for showers all over the belt accompanied by colder weather. Fear on the part of the sellers that the next government report would indicate a yield of not much over 12 million was a strong fac tor. There is no definite evidence yet, however, of a stampede on the part of consumers to cover their season’s needs and unless this develops, it would seem inadvisable to follow the advance of 3 1-2 to 4 cents in 10 days.
