This has occurred In spite of the census bu- i rcau'M report on the* ginning up to December IS, putting it close to 11.- ; 000,000 bales, or not inure than about j *0.0<t0 hales below the total for the I sam« period In 1904-5, the year of a j crop, according to New York reckoning of 13,054.000 bales. Jt has occurred * too. In spite of a crop movement wh'ch though smaller than recently, has con tinued ipi'te large and also despite some slowing down of tho dry goods business In this country, a rapidly In creasing stock of raw cotton here, ac companied by predictions that the to tal Is likely before the end of the year to reach 175,000 bales, and the narrowness of the speculation, from wirrh the great mass of the outside public undoubtedly holds aloof.✓ English Profits Good. Kojne of the spot Interests have been plainly inimical to an advance, and Liverpool continues to send reports of fipor trade, yet It appears that Brit ish mills by their own ndm'Hslon have rhude average profits during the year Of no less than sixteen per cent «s w»« publicly announced on Wednesday. It in conceded that tip? British trade has not be»p supplying Itself so liberally with cotton as have the mills of Atner. lea and the continent of Europe.

Spinners' Takings Heavy. Meantime southern hedges have had less effect than recently and though the December premium over' January fell the other day to 33 points, it afterward fan up to 42 In spite of a dally Increase In the stock here late ly of over 6.000 bales. It seems to he .conceded that deliveries on Jan* unry contracts which will be made on December 31 are likely to he very large. The fort Tying factors in the situation, the things whli’h hulls arc never ttlred of emphasising, are the enormous spinners' takings and the fact that the price Is cheap. At any rato It Is f 10 a halo cheaper than It Was a year ago. 'Big Wave of Receipts Past. It Is believed, too, that the crest of th® big wave of receipts at the south Is past and that they will gradually decrease. The December arrivals at Houston and other Interior towns are regarded ns giving color to this belief. Bears think that the latest ginning report makes |t plain enough that h!g reserve stocks will be carried over to next season, that the crop Is anywhere from 13,500.000 to 14.000.000 halos; that Express prepaid to any point reached by Southern Express Co.

Dec. 25—For a holiday season, the activity In bonds Oils week has been extraordinary and would seem to fully Justify prediction* re* rentiy published that tho investment markets, far from having reached tho tr< f»t of the present Improvement, arc on the eve of a still greater advance. Transactions both on tho Now York Stock Exchange and over the counter have been of unusually large volume for this time of tho year. The week Ims been notable for important devel opments. One was the absorption of the Colorado 4k Southern by the Bur lington, which stimulated an advance In tho former!* bonds. This acquisi tion has been accompanied by rumors of other pending deals which led to marked activity ‘n such Issues as Wab ash 4s. nnd Missouri, Kansas 4k T« x »s 4H».

An Important Announcement. 4*ther , Important announcement limit » jvar m fin(muii• iiury «e- tlvlty. Investors both private and In stitutional, probably realise that the high grade bonds have enjoyed a mar ked advance and that at present tho second class bonds are relatively tho cheaper. This fact Is forced upon the mind by a study of prevailing quo tations. Although money rates tire low. buyers of bonds are not yet •dia lled to accept 4 per cent. mu', tills U not necessary. General business slowly reviving, nnd there Is confidence lu the nullity of raUroftd*. and ether corporations to secure, tnmls by the sale of bonds. In fact, aom® corpora tion officials complain of ths number of applications frob bond houses fc securities. This Is an aporYslous con dltion. when the urgency .-oinpnnle the previous year to sell'scout Hies Is remembered. Hut the point 's that In dusttial cotullt'ons throughout th country are so sound and promising that many securities formerly regard ed as second class are almost certain to appreciate In value. With money abundant and faetors favorable to the Investment of surplus funds In bonds, almost every banker In Wall street believes that dur'ng January and possibly throughout Up* new y»ar. there will he a widespread demand tor investment securities. wss that Chesapeake 4k Ohio d'rectors have sold SI LOOP,900 of ( per cen! bonds to J.
