COTTON
NEW YORK. Nov. 30.—The glnner’s
report shows that the equivalent of
9.784.616 square bales have been
ginned up to the 14th of November.
If this is even 85 per cent, of the crop,
the Indicated yield is 11,500,000. For
the past two yearn 85 per. cent of the
crop haa not been ginned until the 13th
of December. Admitting that this crop
la a month earlier than either that of
last year or the year before, which
seems hardly probable, we are con
fronted with the certainty of 11,500,000
bales and the probability of 12,000,000
In the face of such figures, I think that
any expectation of an advance must
be abandoned. As I have previously
pointed out, the only hope of an im
provement was in the possibility that
the government would underestimate
the yield. In the faco of the census
figures It must be admitted that n
governmental estimate of 11,750,000
would be an underestimate of from
500,000 to 760,000 bales. In other
words, I think the ginners, report In*
dirates a crop of from 12,250,000 to
12,600,000, and expect that cotton will
go very much lower.

said, speaking of the accumulation
of wealth: *Tt Is not what you

week’s or last month's salary? “So
much for this, so much for that, so
nuch for the other thing." All
necessary nud useful. But what did
you do with the rest?
What have you to show for It?
Now is the time—today—to start

New York Cotton Letter.
NEW YORK, Nov. 30.—There was na
other very active and weak session in
the cotton market, with prices reaehlnr
new low levels for the season. In spite o.
a sharp rally Immediately following the
ginners' report, which showed a smaller
amount of cotton ginned to November
14th than had been expected. Reports of
weakening spot markets, howevor, and
continued bear pressure soon supplied
the demands of covering shorts and tho
market sold lower after the report than
boforo it. Toward the close, there wns
enough covering to steady the market,
but prices were within 2 or 3 points of
the lowest.
The opening wns steady at an advance
of 2 points to a decline of 1 point, the gain
being confined to the December position.
Sales were about aa duo on the New
close of the previous day. but private ad
vices Indicated & willingness to follow any
further decline. Heavy soiling led by
Wall street parties brought about n de
cline of 8n19 points before tho census re
port was Issued. Following the report,
the list rallied some 27»30 points from
the lowest^ but almost Immediately weak
ened under continued bear pressure.
Shorts seemed about the only buyers, and
the demand from this source wns prompt.
Iy withdrawn, when It was seen that tho
report was leading to no material Im-
f rovement In tho tone of tho market,
n the Into trading prices worked down
to below 16 cents for March, nnd to a
net loss of 16n22 points on the actlvo
months. The close wns nominally steady
at a net decline of llnl7 points on all
positions except April, which was 6 points
lower. Sales were estimated at
bales.
Receipts of cotton at the ports today
were 62,979 hales against 46.770 bales last
week and R4.002 bales last year. For
tho week 386,000 bales agnlnst 369.810
bales lsst week nnd 378,850 bales last
year. Today’s receipts at Now Orleans
were 30,169 bales against 16,815 hales Inst

1,621 bales last year.

New Orleans handled over Itn wharves

Ware A Letsnd’s Cotton Letter.
NEW YORK, Nov. 30.—Aftsr what has
happened recently, traders were not sur
prised to steo January cross through 9
cents to R.84 this morning, nor were they
surprised to find March ndvnnclng from
9 cents to 9.27 after the ginners' report.
In fact, things ore now so absolutely de
moralized that nothing would surprise tho
average trader. Those who have been
right on the crop forecasts who looked
for less than 11.500,000 bales would regard
a 12.000.000-bnln report from Washington
on Saturday ns entirely within the range
of reason. That Is. they are so mistaken
In their Ideas of the crop thnt oven a
13.000,000-bale crop would not startle them
now. In other words. It looks ns though
this wns a crop where nil the known data
had to be disregarded. Tho conservative
element Is gradually being educated to
receive almost anythlnr on Saturday.
That Is the reason of the demoralisation.
They won't buy until after the report on
Saturday. In the meantime, the mar
ket Is at tho mercy of the hears. The
ginners' report shows 9,786.000 bales
ginned up to November 14th. You ci
guess what the crop Is If the percentage
Is known. Otherwise, tho figures are quite
valueless. This Is no Information to
trade on.
Macon Brokerage Co.’s Cotton Letter.
NEW YORK. Nov. 30—The cotton mar
ket opened steady In tone with first
prices 2 points higher to 1 pint lower.
Tho rubles did not respnd very well to
tho bearish tendencies on this side, nad
naturally aome of the shrta were Inclined
to ever. However, private advices from
Europe were far from encouraging to
the longs, since they reflected n disposi
tion on the part of the foreigners to look
for further weakness. New Orleans con
tinued to express bearish opinions and
there were some selling orders here from
the Routh. The market broke sharply as
the morning advanced, and the lowest
prices of the present movement were re^
corded. There appeared to be heavy lloul.
datlnn In the January option, and other
months worked In sympathy. On the low
er levels there wna some support from
various sources, nnd the market rallied a
little up to the time of the census bureau
report at noon. This report was con
strued aa very bullish, and Immediately
sqntlment. changed In favor of the hulls,
nnd there was a recovery of some 20
points, and the figures which showed
