Comparative Receipts In Macon,
COTTON
NEW YORK. Dec. 1.—The New Or
leans Tllnos-Democrat today estimat
ed the cotton crop at 11,940,000 bales.
Miss Giles says that the crop la In tho
neighborhood of 11.939,900 bales, and
remarks that these figures are conserv
ative and are rather under than over
the prospective. W. P. Brown esti
mates the crop at 11,932,000 bales.
These estimates are crystallized public
opinion and Induce a belief in a crop of
12,000,000 or over, that even the gov
ernment report cannot seriously dis
turb. Such a crop, even upon the ba
sis of the most liberal estimates of
consumption indicates a visible sup
ply at the end of the season in excess
of 1,250,000 and a much larger invisible
supply. For the past thirteen years a
visible supply nt the end of the season
>ver one million bales has never
failed to result in a decline to at least
7# cents a pound for middling cotton
in New York, and I expect to see tho
same relation between cause and effect
similarly expressed this season. Shorts
for the most part have covered and no
one wants to buy at 814 cents a pound
cotton that will probably be shortly ob
tainable at 7% cents.

New York Cotton Letter.
NEW YORK, Dec. 1.—Considering the
extent of the rerent decline the weak
ness of the cotton market today was little
short of sensational and trading was
again very active and the bears kept
the market under pressure from start to
finish, prices finally at about the lowest
level of tho day. The opening was weak
at a decline of 12a26 points in response
to the big decline In the English mar
ket, which reported no support whatever
and sentiment very bearlshly affected
by the big estimates from Southern
sources, notably, one of 11,940.000 bales.
Following tho cnll here there was a mo
mentary rally ns a result of active cover
ing by shorts, but the steadier tone lasted
only a few minutes and was followed by
another sharp break. During the balance
of the session the market was very fe
verish and unsettled, and showed a gen
erally declining tendency.
The close was nominally steady, but at
a net decline of 31n3t points. Bales wero
estimated at 600.000 bales.
Tho decline seemed to result In the dis
position to Increase crop estimates to
bales, and from the
crnspotsltuation.
Private advices received by local spot
people Indicated that Interior houses were
following the decline In futures and of
fering freely, while mills were withdraw
ing support and buying orders.
Receipts of cotton at the ports today
were 35,048 bales against 41,543 bales last
week and 47,963 bales last yenr. For tho
week 380,000 bales against 369,810 bales
last week and 373,850 bales last year. To-
* s receipts at New Orleans were 5.146
•s agnlnst 14.316 bales last year, and
HL Houston 10,026 bales against 22,185
bales last year.

Macon Brokerage Co.’s Cotton Letter.
NEW YORK, Dec. 1.—Tho market for
cotton futures opened weak In tono to
day. with first prices generally 12 to 26
K lnts lower. For a time the market
>ked demoralised and the smaller trad
ers wero nervous and uncertain. Shorts
wero disposed to cover and some very
largo blocks of cotton wero taken In by
this connection. Tho trade generally wa3
active. The early weakness followed
bearish cables from the English market
and the bears were encouraged by sev
eral largo estimates with regard to the
extent of the crop. The latter was placed
at 11,540,000 boles nnd naturally holders
were badly frightened. There was con
siderable buying by conservative Interests
on the theory that a large official crop
estimate, due In a few days, had been
discounted, and that tho shorts would be
forced to cover on a heavy scale In tho
event of tho government figures Indl
eating that the recent decline is equiv
alent to about $6 per bale. Tho advices
from tho South reflected easier spot mar
ket with freer offerings. Still them was
a fair degree of support and at times tho
market showed n disposition to recover,
although throughout tho day there was
an unsettled and nervous tendency. Tho
statistics attracted but little attention,
but the averages all around were con
sidered comparatively bearish.
Hubbard Bros. & Co.'s Cotton Letter.
NEW YORK. Dec. I.— 1 Today we felt
tho liquidation of cotton that was held In
the South for a rather bullish bureau re
port. and which was sold, as fhe ginners’
report was expected to foreshadow a
bearish report. It Is fair to assume that
an allowance of about 3 per cent, would
be mode for land abandoned during the
season, so that the report was complied
on that bssls. There was a noticeable
continental demand which absorbed the
January offerings early In the day. This,
together with continued American spin
ners buying, was the only support of
weight. Our local trade nnd the out
siders wero bearish, nnd whero one cov-
erod freely, other sold. In anticipation of
still lower prices. In short, the specula
tive temper everywhere Is bearixh and
traders aro putting out largo lines of
short cotton.
Ware & Leland’s Cotton Letter.
NEW YORK. Dec. 1.—The demoralisa
tion today was not unexpected. In fact,
the circulation of estimates of 12,000,0(10
bales by the Times Democrat by which
Brown and Miss Giles broke tho market
less than might have been expected, It Is
doubtful whether many In the trado have
looked for 12,000.090 bales. It Is n ques
tion what tho trado will do with that
much cotton. If wo have raised that
much this year, why not next? This
would mean 7 cents by next summer if
the government supports the claim of
12.000.000 bales on this crop, and there
will be no bull move In cotton this year.
Nothing but rallies upon which to sell.
Until the report Is received on, Saturday,
the present demoralisation Is likely to
continue. There Is no Inducement to buy
until there Is something to buy on. If
the crop Is 12,000,000, the revulsion In
NEW YORK STOCK LETTER.
NEW YORK. Dec. 1.—Prices moved up-
urds In the opening dealings in stocks
today in a fairly uniform manner. But
that was tho last of uniformity In tho
day's market. There wore many strong

decision of the securities ease. Tho most
notablo advances wero divided between
stocks of an extremely high grade* class,
nnd those of little tried and
Issues.
Tho active trading at receding prices
in cotton helped railroads, which have a
large traffic In that commodity, nnd Illi
nois Central had tho additional advantage
of a sale of $12,000,000 of Its bonds.
Tho riso In Amalgamated Copper was

to do something on the null side. For
the present It’s an avnlanche of cotton
