WEEKLY MARKET REVIEW.
Cotton Breaks Heavily—The Bureau
Report Indicates a Yield Much
Above Expectations.
Cotton was quite active, but ruled
very weak. With the exception of a
small spurt on Monday morning, due
to the changed front of certain large
speculative interests in New York
commented on here last week, and a
quick spurt of about 30 points on Wed
nesday caused by the completed cen
sus report, the market tended heav
ily downwards. The decline, had
amounted to about 90 points before the
appearance of the bureau report on
Saturday. When this came out and
was found to entirely confirm the larg
est run of crop estimates, the mar
ket went into a panic, and in the
remaining forty-five minutes of trad
ing prices fell 50 points more. At
the close, January had gotten down
to Bc, the net loss for the week, be
ing about 135 to 140 points.
A decline in cotton of nearly 2c a
pound in two weeks and amounts to a
great disaster to the South. As only
about 6,000.000 bales have so far come
into sight, and, much of that is yet
unsold, evidently more than one-half
of the crop remains to be marketed,
and that cotton is now worth about
$lO a bale less than it was in the
middle of November. At the opening
of 'the season, when comparatively
few people, looked for much, if any,
over 11,000,000 bales, the writer ventur
ed the prediction that by the first part
of December, when the bureau report
should come out. hardly anyone would
be estimating the yield below 12,000,-
000, and that something like a panic
in the market must necessarily en
sue. If these views have not been
unremittingly insisted upon during the
intervening three months, it was due
to a reluctance to even appear to be
enacting the role of a would-be wreck
er of the South’s greatest market.
During the last two or three weeks,
however, the writer, in this weekly
review as well as in many private let
ters, has repeatedly and clearly stat
ed the assured conviction of an im
minent big move in the market. The
move has come, and none of those
who followed the advice given has any
cause to regret having done so. For
some time now the market is going
to be very active, with speculation fast
and furious, and there are abundant
opportunities for very satisfactory re
sults from wise and cautious invest
ments.
Grain and provisions worked firmer,
and close somewhat higher, but with
out any very decided movement. There
is soon going to be something much
more lively going on in these mar
kets, also: but just at present cotton
is the cynosure of all eyes, especially
in this part of the world.

GROSS EARNINGS
OF SOUTHERN ROADS.
The following figures give the gross
earnings to latest report of the rail-
COTTON.
New York, Dec. 3.—The Agricul
tural Department estimates this year’s
cotton crop at 12,162,000 bales. It is
officially stated that this estimate does
not include the production of linters,
which is probably not less than 3,000,-
000 bales. The figures, therefore, may
be accepted as indicating a minimum
of 12,500,000 and as in the case of rec
ord-breaking yields the department has
never failed to underestimate crop by
from 10 per cent, to 15 per cent., it is
my opinion that for practical purposes
to-day’s crop estimate may be taken
as Indicating a commercial crop of at
least 12,750,000 bales, and possibly 13,-
000,000. With such a supply it is hard
to say how low cotton will go. It in
dicates a visible surplus at the end of
the year of at least 2,000,000 bales of
American cotton, and such a supply
has never failed in the past to carry
prices considerably below 7 cents, and
sometimes as low as SV& cents. I see
no reason why history should not re
peat itself, and advise holders to sell
as promptly as possible and before
spinners fully appreciate the tremen
dous advantage they now occupy in
being able to nfake practically theii*
own prices for such cotton as they
may have yet to purchase. "Signed,”

MAGAZINES.
The Pilgrim for December shows a
marked advance over previous issues
of this popular and widely read mag
azine. While the contents generally
cannot be said to relate specifically to
Christmas, the Christmas spirit per
vades the magazine from cover to
cover.
An article of an odd type is concern
ed with the work being done by Mr.
Louis Akin, an artist who for many
months has dwelt among the Hopi In
dians in Arizona. The illustrations of
this article are among the most strik
ing the Pilgrim has ever published.
In fiction the Christmas number df
the Pilgrim is especialy rich. A strik
ingly illustrated and swiftly interest
ing railroad story Is entitled, “The
Flight of 999,” and Hopkins J. Moore
house, its author, proves himself to
be a writer of quite unusual power.
The Pilgrim Magazine Company, Bat
tle Creek, Mich.
The December number of Town
Topics has for its leading story “A
Fifth Avenue Incident” by Edgar Sal
tus. It is a story that will be read
with considerable interest. Saltus is
an attractive writer and has many ad
mirers. There are a number of other
stories, several poems of merit and a
lot of other bright things. Town Top
ics Publishing Company, 452 Fifth
avenue, New York.
The special features of the Ameri
can Review of Reviews for December,
are an article by Walter Wellman on
“The United States and the World’s
Peace Movement;” an account of the
work of the Merchant Marine Com
mission, by Winthrop L. Marvin; brief
character sketches of four men of the
month, —William Barclay Parsons, by
Nicholas Murray Butler; David Row
land Francis, by Frederick M. Crun
den; George B. Cortelyou, by Louis A.
Ooolidge; and William L. Douglas,
by H. L. Wood; an account of the re
cent movement for the betterment of
rural conditions In North Carolina, by
Clarence H. Poe; a forecast of the com
ing Forestry Congress at Washington,
by H. M. Suter; "Modern Picture-
Book Children,” by Earnest Krfauftt,
with reproductions of the work of re
cent illustrators of childhood, and an
account of the remarkable trials In
November of the electric locomotive
built for the New York Central Rail
road. The departments are up to their
usual high standard of merit.
Avery attractive number is the Hol
iday Book number of the Outlook.
Even the cover and advertisements are
attractive. Its articles are of a high
standard of merit. Those who read it
will get some interesting 1 informa
tion about books and the writers
of them. The pictures of the writers
mentioned are an additional attraction,
as people like to know about authors
whose books they read. The Outlook
Company, 287 Fourth Ave., New York.
The December number of the
World's Work makes a wide sweep of
the activities of the United States for
the past year, covering not only the
most significant facts in our develop
ment, but showing further our rela
tions with other countries, and the re
gard in which we are held by them.
The Illustrations for this number have
been chosen with exceptional care, and
are among the finest that have ever
appeared in any magazine. The hope
ful financial outlook is summed up
in "The Sound Revival of Business.”
The Secretary of the Navy, the Sec
retary of the Treasury, the Secretary
of the Department of Agriculture, and
the Postmaster General have each con
tributed a resume of the work of his
department for the past year. Lord
Curzon, Viceroy of India, describes the
enormous difficulties encountered by his
administration, and paints a brilliant
future for the British Eastern Empire
In the "Future of British India." "The
Universal Spirit of Christmas" consid
ers In its larger aspects the signifi
cance of the Christmas gift, and Mr.
H. W. Lanier's notable series of arti
cles on Insurance Is continued with
a discussion of industrial life Insur
ance, entitled "Billions In Ten Cent
Insurance." Doubleday, Page & Cos.,
133-137 East Sixteenth street, New
York.
It Is doubtful if among the Christ
mas magazines there Is one more at
tractive than McClure's. Its cover ar
rests attention and its articles and
Illustrations are Just about as good
as they can be. In looking over this
number It Is easy to understand why
McClure's bas secured such a large
circulation. The reason is it merits
the confidence and patronage of the
public. Some of Its articles have un
doubtedly helped to raise the country
to a higher plane of morality. 8. 8.

INTERIOR COTTON MEN
ABLE TO HOLD COTTON.
ftlimate of Georgia Crop Places It
at 1,800,000 Buies.
A well known cotton buyer, who rep
resents one of the largest cotton houses
of this city in Georgia, South Carolina,
Florida and parts of Alabama, was in
Savannah yesterday, and talked inter
estingly of the crop estimate and of
the conditions as he has found them
in the country districts of his terri
tory.
He believes that the interior holders
are not only in a position to take care
of their cotton until the effect of the
recent slump in prices has been over
come, but that they also are alive to
the advisability of so doing and will
take steps to prevent the market being
flooded with the staple just now, which
would have the effect of maintaining
the present basis of prices or sending
them even lower.
He thinks that the remainder of the
crop will be marketed in a way that
will maintain prices somewhere In the
vicinity of 8 cents for good middling.
Referring to the probable crop of Geor
gia he said that in his opinion it will
be something like 1,800,000 bales. Sa
vannah, he thinks, will receive fully
1,750,000 bales before the season is over.
