BIG SPOT DEMAND SENDSCOTTDNUP Heavy Buying Prevails Entire Day—U. S. Report Bullish and Stimulating Factor. NEW YORK, Nov. 8. - A favorable weather map and weak cables caused the cotton market to open barely steady, with prices ranging from 2 points higher to 11 points lower than last night's close. Im mediately after the opening 1 he/govern rnent issued its census report on the amount of bales ginned to November 1, placing figures at 8,849,898 bales This report came about as expected, but the market was suddenly struck with short covering and heavy buying from spots people, and prices jumped to 27 points in active months from the early range. after the call a general selling wave prevailed, which was said to be for protlt-taking, but prices held firm at 8 to 10 points advance from the previous close Enormous spot demand and heavy short covering during the late forenoon trading checked the downward trend, causing a sudden and rapid advance, which resulted in I tecember jumping to 11.92, against an opening of 11.53, a net gain of 39 points. January crossed the 12c level, going to 12 05 March rallied to 12.25, while the remaining positions aggregated a 25 to 32-point advance. The chief influences for the heavy buying was due to crop estimates being lowered, combined with some outside bulls con tending that with the present world’s consumption the yield will be below re quirements. The census report was regarded as a bullish factor and was used as a stimu lating effect upon the market The feel ing, however, is that a reaction is due, but with the prevailing spot demand a setback is not in line unless big spot interests should throw their holdings upon the market At the close the market was steady, with October 2 points higher and other positions showing a net gain of 11 to 22 points from the final quotations <»f Thurs day.

STOCKS. - CH A R LES W. STORM. YORK, Nov. 9.—Demoralization prevailed In the stock market at the <>|>en ing today in consequence of disquieting cables, which emphasized the possibility ?< f a diplomatic imbroglio in Europe over the Balkan war. General declines were made throughout, the international stocks being the worst sufferers. Cables from London stated that the British market w«s heavy and that prices there were off although they ral lied at the close. Among the declines scored here in the nrst fifteen minutes were United States Steel % to %, Amalgamated Copper % American Smetlfng % to %, Erie pre ferred 1, International Harvester %, Northern Pacific %. American Beet Sugar Chesapeake and Ohio ■%, American ~a n L Chicago, Milwaukee and St. Paul I-’ Canadian Pacific 1, Southern Pacific U Missouri Pacific % to Union Pa cific to 1. Reading, after opening 7 « lower, lost % additional. Lehigh Valley also sustained a loss of L. Americans had been sold heavily in the London market before the New York market opened. Afterwards a number of selling orders were cabled here from Lon don, Berlin and Paris. The curb opened easier. Americans in London were irregular and lacked support. Canadian Pacific broke sharply, but rallied just before the close there. NEW YORK STOCK MARKET. Stock quotations to H a. m.: i i I i 11 IPr’v. STOCKS—;(ip’u High Low A M. (Cl’s* Amal.

Carpenter I & Co.: The ginning figures were below I expectations, and while opening was quiet and trading light there was uneasiness among the shorts soon after the call. Sev eral brokers came in with buying orders which started a wave of short covering and the advance was rapid. Selling looked to come mostly from longs. Crop estimates are being lowered and some contend today’s figures do not in dicate a crop of over 13,500.000 at the out side. The main strength to the market today was chiefly due to the covering by shorts after the government issued its report on the amount of ginned bales as of Novem ber 1. Fell interest was said to have been a good buyer throughout the day. The census report was regarded as bull ; ish and you may get a little reaction at • any time; then I favor buying. (Signed) Mr. S.

The New Orleans Times-Democrat’s summary: The daily advances in the price of cotton can not be longer slighted ° i as a matter of temporary consequence (>n ? ’ L’ ut must be considered as a poten tial characteristic and direct manifesta tloP she change in cotton market con ditions that was ushered in with the com ing of a wonderful expansion in world’s trade, with the arrival of the emancipated farmer, with the dissemination of scien tific cultural knowledge, and with the rise to power of the protective under writer. Thus considered, a new perspect -IV®.revea,s many old dogmas in new light. rhe practice of the market us applied tb the actual cotton trade is of peculiar Interest at this time, the fate of the bull or the bear speculator being merely inci dental. When the price of contracts declines the consumer wants to buy. When the price of contracts advances the basis declines and the exporter wants to buy. In this way the merchant is enabled to sell cot ton for forward delivery at a basis that is attractive to the consumer, buy a con tract hedge, and later on, buy in the actual stuff at a basis attractive to him self. Against the risk of price fluctua tions the merchant enjoys the protection of future hedges, but he has no protec tion against basis fluctuation. Neverthe less, the busy consumer is always en deavoring to reduce the price, while the emancipated farmer is always endeavor ing to punch it sky high. In the case of the better grades the’weather has greatly assisted the fanner both last year and this. Following are 10 a. m. bids: December, 12.16; January, 12.15; March. 12.32: May, 12.42.
