New Oueat - inc --Democrat: While
.j 1 j iday's cotton market advance was
• coked upon as a thing of custom and not
! •«) he Jun seriously regarded by shorts,
. ' there was. in the opinion of men who
,I - udy statistics, good cause for it. Tn the
| first piaue. professional b**ars W’ho are all
leaded w h favorable crop reports, argu
! menis and data, seem not inclined to
siari the avalanche which they so freely
predict. 'l’he bulls are in the minority,
and as a result are looking for the pres
ence of speculative short interest, must
therefore be admitted. Hence. the
promptness of the market to steady up
after each heavy period, particularly when
the talent finds time to analize the sta
tistics. During the week 69,000 bales
came into sight, as against 132,000 in
1909. while 221,000 passed out of sight,
against 192.000 in 1909. I’ntil six weeks
og-> the weekly into-sight movement ran
well ahead of 1909. Since then the move
ment has been running behind, the figures
*<u ihe six weeks being, in 1909. 843.000
bales; in 1912. 648.000 a relative loss this
' year during the period of almost 200.000,
or 35.000 hales a week, under 1909. Dur
ing the same six weeks the visible sup
ply of American cotton has lost 1,064.000.
or 182,000 bales more than lost in that
period in 1909. Spinners’ takings contin
ue to run on a record scale and to date
amount to 12.619,000. Thus it is shown
that while the into-sight movement shows
a heavy relative decrease each week under
1909 the out-of-sight movement shows a
heavy relative increase over 1909, and the
season of 1908-09 established the previous
record y ield and consumption.

HAYWARD 4 CLARK'S
DAILY qOTTON LETTER
NEW ORLEANS. Ma? 25 Out market
lost about 10 points in the early trading,
but. as has been frequently the case in
the past, was soon pulled up by the firm
ness in the Northern market. The an- |
nouncemenl from Washington that the,
bureau report on June 4 will also give ihe
acreage brought further buying on the
market. The opinion evidently prevails
that the report will be made more bullish
by the acreage figures. The market was
also stimulated by a report circulated in
New York that Secretary Wilson had
made the remark that acreage in over
flowed districts will be much less than
usual We know nothing of this, but re
fer to the bulletin of his department on
May IS to the effect 'that cotton tnaj be
planted in overflowed districts as late as
June 15. with prospects of a fair crop
under normal conditions thereafter, and
that the danger from boll weevil will be
much reduced.
Without going far into details every
thing points to the existence of some
large bull interests in the market who
are making efforts to defend prices dur
ing this spell of fine weather and rapid
crop progress. The markets next week
will be principally occupied with arrang
ing interests for the bureau publication.
As the June condition report deals
principally with the condition of land, a
low condition figure is expected present
opinion placing It under <O. against 87.8
last year and a ten-year average of 81.5.
Five minutes before the close Washing
ton again corrected the publication of the
bureau report, and says only a condition
report will be issued on June 4, the acre
age report to be issued in July.
