DAILY COTTON LETTER
further advance, principally duo to the
situation of the December contracts. The
uncovered Interest in this position Is said
to be still large, and spot houses who hold
the long end are not parting with it at
the large premium an freely as was ex
pected. Others exnect a regular short
stampede to result from the technical sit
uation, and ore buying on this ground.
The bulling is directed entirely at the
technical condition of a speculative!:
short market. Altho Liverpool was rath
er tame with futures t point lower than
due and spots' 8 points higher, the push In
New York was resumed at the opening
»nd resulted in a moderate stampede b”
shorts, which carried March here to 9.2'
Operators on technical market conditions
pay no attention to cotton facts until the
condition attacked. In this case the spec
ulative short Interest, is.moderated or re
moved. Opinion Is therefore valueless
for the present.
Weather conditions Improved over
fight. The map shows fair in the West
ern states and cloudy In the rest of the
belt, indications arc for generally clear
ing weather except In Tennessee and ths
in
* 05 The"streVs of t*he 'technloai"sltuatlon
h*s undoubtedly been considerably
lieved by extensive covering.
