Beara lr Crowding Market Al
rdf and Advice to Given That
UI cotton Not Yet Marketed Be
H ,ld for 12 Cent, a Pound.
Hon Harvie Jordan, president of the
th e„. Cotton Growers; Protective
Association, in continuance of his catn
ap, to induce cotton planters to
their cotton slowly, with a
vlew o£ getting a higher price for it,
. rec ently issued an address, which
te bop es to have reach all Southern
cotton producers. He says:
■ prompt and definite action on the
t o£ producers and holders of spot
citon all over the cotton belt is abso
lutely essential at this time to break
present 'bear’ combinations _ that
W e o perfectly organized to depress
S rices. The open season has permitted
(W farmers to gather and gin fully 80
. cent, of the crop by Nov. 1, and
enough cotton has been rushed upon
the markets to largely meet all de
mands o( the speculators. While it is
true more of the staple has been held
ixck this year than ever before, the
dally receipts at interior markets and
ports are still too heavy to force an
advance in prices equivalent to
tha true value of the staple. The
roroduoers are to be congratulated for
the firm stand they have already taken
to market the crop slowly, and that
tact alone has prevented the price from
fainog to 8 cents during the month of
October.
The crop is atoout gathered, debts
graieily are paid and it is no longer
absolutely necessary to sell the balance
of the crop. The glnners’ report recent
ly issued from the United States Cen-:
tus Bureau indicated that up to Oct.
18 only 6,400,000 bales of cotton had
been ginned. This report clearly Indi
cates that this crop will not exceed
11,000,000 bales, if It reaches that fig
ure. The spinners can well afford to
pay the producers 12 cents per pound
for every bale of American short sta
ple cotton made this season and do a
profitable business for the stockhold
ers. The price of yarns has advanced
1 cents per pound within the past six
ty days and an unprecedented demand
for cotton goods exists, while stocks
generally are lower than they have
been for the past twenty years.
Give Markets a Rest.
"The duty of the producers is plain
and simple. They have crowded the
markets for the past two months, con
gesting every facility for handling cot
ton and playing Into the hands of the
bear speculators and spinners. The
thing to do now is to give the mar
kets and shippers a rest during the
next sixty days and allow present
stooks of spot cotton be gotten out of
the way. Let the spinners who are
living from hand to mouth run short
of cotton and force them into the mar
kets as active buyers. Let the bear
speculators begin to feel the lash of
the bull operators when the latter call
for the deliveries of spot cotton which
the farmer will be unable to deliver
"Let every holder of cotton abso
lutely stop selling and sit down at
home and quietly contemplate results.
Let each holder determine to put no
more cotton on the market until prices
adtunce and never sell a bale on a
depressed market. Port receipts are
already falling off, due to the reslst
nnit < L° ffered by the Producers, and if

WEEKLY MARKET REVIEW.
Stocks Active mid Excited—Cotton
Qntet lint Steady—Grain and Pro
visions Firmer.
The leading feature of the markets
continues to be stocks. In view of
the election results there was natural
ly a, further strong bull move during
the week. About the most interesting
point to be noted is the coming into
prominence of hitherto comparatively
neglected industrials and so-called
specialties. With a few exceptions
railroad issues were relegated to the
background, after the general spurt
immediately after the election. Ten
nessee Coal and Iron, and Pacific Mail
were two stocks prominently strong
late in the week. Transactions gen
erally were on an enormous scale, and
the bullish fever is very high.
Cotton was dull for the most part,
but prices were well held, and closed
at an improvement for the week of 10
to 12 points. The movement was quite
heavy, and yet showed some decrease
from the figures of the preceding week
and also of last year. At the end
of the week a cold Wave struck the
belt, causing killing frost, all over
Texas on Saturday, and then working
eastward. It is not believed that much
damage was Inflicted, as the plant had
prolfably already done about all it was
going to do.
As to the course of prices, all de
pends now on the extent of the de
mand and the chrystalizlng upon a
definite Idea of the crop. At present
the popular estimate seems to be from
11,000,000 to 12,250,000 bales. The acre
age increase alone should suffice to
make it at least 11,000,000 bales, and
hardjty anyone will deny that the
yield per acre is larger this year. From
all accounts iit looks like Georgia and
the Carolinas have made not less than
25 to 30 per cent, more than last year,
and perhaps nearly as much can be
said for Tehnessee and Arkansas. The
other states can be put from 10 to 15
or 20 per cent, gain, or a general aver
age Increase of somewhere around 26
per cent. The next ginpers' report
with the bureau's estimate of yield per
acre, due Dec. 3, ought to go far to
ward settling the dispute. 1
Gi'ain and provisions were fairly ac
tive and prices are generally higher'"
A leading feature was an advance of
some 3c in com, owing mainly to light
stocks and fears of manipulation;
which shows • how dangerous it is to
sell corn too recklessly, in spite of
the big crop. The provisions outlook
was better;- hog receipts quite mod
erate.
The time is now ripe for livelier de
velopments, and the Immediate future
offers great Inducements to specula
tive investors. In stocks, new ones
are taken up dally, and the list of
what we may call promising poten
tialities is being rapidly reduced.
There are still, however, a number of
them which have not yet had their
turn, and whose condition make it
about as certain as such things ever
are, that their time too 1b at. hand.
There are some of these relatively low
priced stocks which are liable to dou-,.
ble in price within s|xty days. Some
which are intrinsically worth more
than .stocks selling now for dou
ble the money. But as already stated
the list of such stocks is fast diminish
ing, and intending investors must
needs be prompt, for when they start
they go with a rush. There is going
to be a considerable movement very
soon now, also in cotton, wheat and
ribs, a sufficient movement to realize
handsome returns from even a sinall
slzed venture If prudently managed
