THE BUREAU REPORT OF
75.8
CREATED GREAT EXCITEMENT
THE LOCAL MARKET.
The Macon market sympathised with
all other markets on the government's
October report of *75.8. which was natu
rally of a bearish effect.
Tho Macon cotton market was quiet
and dull yesterday, the effect of tho
ripening weather being shown In the
price; but, at the game time it Is to
be noted that even low middling com
mands 9 cents.
year. The indicated crop Is 12,111,000
bales. Assuming conditions hereafter
to be the same as In 1897-8 the Indi
cated crop is 15.242.000 bales. In
either case the probabilities now seem
to point to a crop of 12,000,000 bales
or over. The truth Is there Is but
few who have appreciated how nearly
perfect for the development of cotton
the weather during the month of Sep
tember has been. With stocks In
creasing on every hand and the move
ment the largest on record there seems
to bo nothing now to support prices
except the ten cents sentiment
viving as a result of !as$ year's specu
lation. It Is my belief that it will
shortly be foupd th'at ten cents under
normal conditions is a high price for
cotton, and I. therefore, advise pro
ducers to accept present quotations,
and spinners to buy as sparingly as
possible at present. If frost Is defer
red until later than l*\gt year the size
of the crop will be surprising, and
meantime It Is evident that the cotton
trade is face to face with a new prob
lem, namely: The value of an Amer
ican crop of twelve million.

New York Cotton Letter.
NE^V YORK. Oct. 3.—It'was a nervous
and more or. less excjted day In the cotton
market with the government's October
report the main object of spcculatlvi
attention. It proved bearish, as had been
expected, and attracted heavy liquidation
ns well as somo bear pressure, leading to
another sharp break In prices. The mar.
ket opened easy at a decline of 8nl7
points In response to lower Liverpool ca
bles than looked for. heavy receipts and
good weather, together with the efforts
of certain speculative accounts to dis
count a bearish bureau. During tho
mnmina It Increased the.-decline some,
what, then rallied slightly, and at tho
hour of the bureau, wns at about the
opening figures. Following this It broke
sharply with nil the active months selling
below the 10-cent mnrk. and catching
stop orders through commission houses.
At the low point December touched 9.83,
January 9.9i). March 9.97 and May 10.02.
From this level the market wns rallied
about 5 or 6 points by room covering and
the close was steady at a net loss of 11
to 23 points. Sales were estimated at
600.000 bales. Port receipts for the day
was above the estimates and Southern
spot mnrkets were again lower, while
exports following the record-breaking
clearances of Satuday were lighter.
Receipts of cotton nt the ports today
were 73.185 bales against 77.191 bales last
week and 04.966 bales Inst year. For tho
week 450.000 bales against 438.317 bales
last week and 305.416 bales last year.

NEW YORK STOCK LETTER
NEW YORK. Oct. 3.—Tho mottv
prompting operations In stocks today
wore extremely difficult to fathom owing
to tho conflicting movements in different
stocks In tho same groups and supposed
ly under the same influences but It was
dlscornable on general lines that the load
of sales to realize was rather heavier
than at any time heretofore on Uhe
present advance, and sufitcient to stag
ger the market, and fairly carry It baek-
wnrtl for n time. , A
The forces in tho market were able to
rally themselves, however, apparently
refreshed by the extent to which the re
alizing had been carried and to make
headway towards recovery. The confi
dence engendered by last week's sus-
tntned rise In prices h'«d been brought in
an unusual accumulation of buying or
ders over Sunday. Yet with nil these ad
vantages there was such a mass of profit -
tliking sales thrown upon tho market that
prices promptly receded after opening Ir
regular and continued to gravitate to n
lower level until many of the lenders
were n point or more below last tpreck':
closing level.
The ndvtfnco of St. Paul was appar
ontlv designed to sustain tho rest of tho
market. and with Its 3% per cent, semi
annual dividend deducted, It looked cheap
and was correspondingly easy to advance.
It wns tho only offeotlve point of reslst-
nnce In the market until the appearance
of the governmet’s estimate of the condl
tlon of cotton nt noon, which led to i
break In cotton and • comprehensive ad
vance In the cotton carrying storks, cx
cept Southern Rnllwny and Lnulsvlllo and
Nashville, which were burdened with
proflt-tnklng on their former advance.
On the rally, there wero points of strength
In the trung line group, but Pennsylvania
was a conspicuous exception. The Indus
trlnls also rallied strongly. The effect I vP

to the close was the resumtitlon of tho

value, $4,505,000. United’ States bonds
were unchnngrd on call.

to lower cables from the English market.
Sentiment generally was nervous early In
the day. but this was natural In view of
the government report. Tho latter
turned out more benrtsh than anticipated
ond naturally It had a rather unfavora
ble effect upon the market. The showing
was 75.8. and suggested a cron of about

celpts were large and a big movement
wan predicted for the balnnre of tho
week at least. Tho spot demand was
moderate, and the advices from solnners
were not especially significant. The lato
advices from abroad were rather bearish,
and there was talk of a bear movement
on the other aide In consequence of the
government figures. On the close there
were many who figured that tho bearish
crop report had beon discounted.

the 1898 report was hardly to be consid
ered a bull argument on the market. The
result of the showing was heavy selling
for both accounts nnd prices slipped off
20 point* from Bsturdor* closing without
very much opposition. While shorts
covered on the break, long cotton con'
tlnued to come out nrd traders were in
clinod to let tbe downward movement run
ts courso without opposition. Rooner or
ntcr the market will be oversold, ns It
has been In the past ana irrespective of
tho site of the crop, and 4he fact that
cotton at 10 cent* nnd 94$ cents In New
York montis 9ft nnd 944 cents In tho
South. !■ quite enough to make one con
servative on the side of lower prices.
The market has been so weak nnd those
who bought higher have taken their
losses that the power for buying for n day
or two inny be limited. But, notwith
standing the high figures, we cannot but
feel that 10 cents Is a moderate price.

NEW YORK./Oct. *.—The Liverpool
opening was considerably weaker than
exported, and this, combined with tho
general belief In n bearish bureau report,
mused our mnrket to- decline nbout 10
points during the morning. The bureau
report, which was published at noon,
placed the crop condition at 76.8, or Just
- xpectetl. There were tho usual num-
. of selling orders In hand, but It was
noticeable that although January sold
off 4 to 6 points more, to 10 cents, there
seemed to be an enormous demand at
that level. Pries* rallied Immediately
nfter the first shook and recovered 7 or
8 points, but sentiment seems to hav*
Income very bearish, and persistent sell
ing started another decrease, which was
not checked until prices had sold off 26
points from those of Saturday. A slight

who looked for some Improvement in that
state during the month. As Is well
known, we did not share that view, ns' '
cr do we feel that the condition for Ti
of 69 correctly picture present conditions
In that state. Last ysar the October

sdnlng can be figure that Texas this year
promises a yield per acre 32 per cent,
more than the average for the past three
years, yet that Is what tho figure 69 In

Increased acreage, then Texas snd In

be remembered when dealing with tJi
very large crop estimates with which t)

more then ordinary significance. A meet
