TUESDAY. NOVEMBER 19. 1912. COTTON GOES UP | GN HEAVY BUYING Larger Interests Consistently Support Market Entire Day. Sentiment Bullish. NEW YORK, Nov. 18.—A sudden ag gressive movemerit prevailed upon the cotton market today at the opening The tone was steady, with first prices a net gain of 10 to 15 points from Saturday’s final. The strong Liverpool cables were said to have been the strengthening fea ture of our market. After the call the market was under heavy buying pres sure with the selling small and scattered. The absorption came chiefly from spot interests and shorts. Prices rallied 7 to 12 points over the opening figures. Memphis, New Orleans and commission houses said to have been ’ good sellers early, but had very little effect upon the market. Larger spot interests strongly backed the market and their heavy buy ing was said to have been based upon the many’ unfavorable reports from the belt. Sentiment is more bullish today than for many' days and the actual buyers are advising their friends to buy cotton. The general opinion is no decline of conse quence is expected at the moment. The market is expected to be a scalping af fair until after the bureau report Thurs day on ginned bales up to November 14. During the afternoon session the bulls had complete control of the market. Every one wanted to buy cotton and prices immediately rallied, above the best of the day. aggregating 18 to 33 points over the previous close. At the close the market was very steady with prices showing a net gain of 22 to 31 points from the final quotations of Sat urday. RANGE OF NFW YORK ffUTUXTEW.

Spots 3 points higher. A cable said: “Less offerings, no bull liquidation; stronger undertone." The weather was good over Sunday; precipitation' only in central and south Texas. Indications are for continued fair and warmer weather, and the Washington forecast for the week is for fair and warmer. The trade now is principally engaged in arguing the coming census report which will be published on- Thursday and give ginnings to November 14. Owing to good picking weather, there Is a tendency to look for full ginnings during the period of October 31 to November 14. A reliable party in Georgia says: "Ow ing to excellent weather this year, gin nings may appear large as compared with last year, but there will be a great fall ing off in the ginning returns thereafter and I am frank to say, 1 believe the small ness of the Georgia crop will surprise the bulls.” A Texas traveler says: “Very little cotton left to gather and 1 believe at the end of this week not 2 per cent will re main unpicked. Farmers holding very extensively and are indifferent sellers." Our market gained 20 points at the start and held very firm at the advance. The decided change’in Liverpool strength ened confidence and was the main cause of firmness. The opinion prevails that the reaction to Il%c has brought the mar ket so a. safe basis for the next period of activity in spot's and a bullish change In statistics. RANGE IN NEW ORLEANS FUTURES.

NEWS AND GOSSIP Os the Fleecy Staple | NEW YORK. Nov. 18. —N. L. Carpen ter & Co.: “I am not advising anything on the rparket. I want to be conservative, but I feel very bullish, and would buy cot ton every time the market declines, be lieving in ultimately higher prices. Think the crop in eastern belt very much over estimated. Think consumption will take all the cotton that America can pick and gin this year, but after big advances re ductions are natural." Commission houses were about the only sellers at tfie opening of the market to day, but this had no feffect. Liverpool has been tramping on our market for the past six days. Sales in Liverpool today were about I, bales more than they have been for more than a week. Looks like the spot situation is the key to the market. The ginners' report to be issued by the census bureau on November 21 is being patiently awaited. The genera! concep tion is that this report will be somewhat bearish. Another holiday (Thanksgiving) is ap proaching. Some took a little profit during the fore noon trading. The market reacted a few points. Memphis- and New Orleans were good sellers here today. Liverpol was strong, it is said, on con tinent buying; also large spot Interests on this side,' The opening was 'quiet, but buying after the opening was good, coming from larger interets and shorts covering. Dallas wires: "Texas— Generally clear and cold.; no frost. Oklahoma —Generally fair and cold: light frost at Hennessy.” Browne, Drakeford & Co. cable: "Ad vance caused by ,reason of buying orders from America."
