Ginning FLeport
Will be Bea rish
New Orleans, Sept: 17.—The
cottoii market this week is going
to be chiefly concerned with the
October government reports on
condition and ginning, that is,
unless the foreign political situa¬
tion should suddenly grow in im¬
portance.
As the crop situation now
stands, or is generally understood,
the report on ginning will be
bearish while the report on con¬
dition is generally expected to be
bullish. The report on ginning
will take the crop down to next
Sunday, while the report on con¬
dition will carry it to Monday:
both reports will be issued on Oc¬
tober 2. This week there will be
several forecasts of both reports
from private sources, and .they
will help mould opinion. The
weather conditions of this week
will be , watched closely, for ufi-
favoraljle weather would, of

The September spot situation
will attract a good deal of atten¬
tion! for it will be late enough in
the month for the trade to form
an opinion of the extent of the
commitments for the last half of
the month. If they prove to be
as large as it is claimed they are
in some quarters, the advantage
will be with the long side. Any
strength derived from a covering
of September shorts will be onl.\
temporary until it can be shown
that the demand has extended
intoOctober and the later months.
