NEW YORK, Dec. 13. —N. L. Carpenter
A* Co.: "Our opinion is unchanged. Think
yesterday's report very bullish and be
lieve the world M'ill so regard It when it
is analyzed. Demand for spots and
manufactured goods is on a basis of 14,-
aOO.OOO bales consumption of American
cotton. Price of spots will dictate the
price of futures for the balance of this
season."
.McFadden, Mitchell, Cone, Gwathmey
and Waters leading buyers today.
Hibbert. Finley and Hood, of Liverpool,
cable: "Nothing offering in South.
.Manchester active and large buyers. Ex
pect spinners to buy for immediate pres
ent."
Browne. Drakeford Co.. Liverpool,
cable: "Market has advanced in conse
quence of nothing offering; sellers scarce."
John J. Shute, of Liverpool, recently
returned from a trip over Texas anil
Oklahoma, after buying about 20,000 bales
of Texas cotton and 10,000 in Oklahoma.
He said that Texas cotton is high grade,
but is held too high, as it is 40 points
above Liverpool basis.
Spot cotton failed to follow the decline
in futures and the chief bull argument
is that futures will have to go up to par
ity with them
Estimate of E. F. Hutton on the com
mercial crop is 1 ’.267,000 bales, as fol
lows: Alabama 1,390.000. Arkansas 883.-

NEW ORLEANS. Dec. 13.—The weath
er map shows freezing in northern half
of the belt; cloudy, rainy in southern half.
Indications are for partly cloudy to fair
in south portion; misty in coast districts;
fair in upper two-thirds of the belt;
warmer.
The New Orleans Times-Democrat says:
The cotton market received the govern
ment quantitive crop guess with some re
spect and much interest. Visitors crowd
ed the exchanges and gay millinery
made the galleries a vision of kaleido
scopic beauty. The llgure, 13,820,000
bales of 500 pounds gross weight, exclu
sive of linters and repacks, about met the
expectations of the trade, since the mar
ket fluctuated witiiin narrow limits and
prices on the day’s trading changed but
little. Liverpool remained inactive until
late at night, lost 5 English points after
' the bureau, and is due to advance about
J 3 points on the opening this morning.
So much for the estimate and its imme
diate results. What it means is another
i matter. Henceforth, the soft colors of
l prophecy will rapidly melt into the cold
light of history, and trade conviction will
replace varied opinion under an immuta
ble law.
Consequently, interpretations of the bu
reau guess, from various angles, are now
timely. In the first place, the govern
ment's tigiire of 13,830,000 compares with
The Times-1 lemocrat's figure, published
on December 2 of 13,975.000. After an
alysis, one leading student of the market
announced his belief that the govern
ment guess points to a commercial crop
in commercial weights of about 13,760,-
OLIO bales. He says: "The commercial
bales are running about 4 per cent heavier
than the government standard; practical
ly as much cotton from the growth of
1912 will lie held back as will come into
sight during 1912-1913 from the growth of
1911 Making the proper deductions and
additions to the bureau figure of 13.820,-
C'OO 500-pound bales, the crop looks like
13.750.000 commercial bales, everything
included."

Increase in Spot Demand Also
Factor—Selling Light and
Scattered.
NlA\ YORK, Dec. 13.—Firm sales and
covering by local shorts resulted in the
cotton market opening steady, with prices
< to 12 points higher than the closing
quotations of Thursday. Good support
was given the market by big bulls and
spot interests. The selling was light and
scattered. After the call prices made a
further advance <>f 4 to 11 points on con
tinuation of buying orders from the very
best sources. Later a wave of profit-tak
ing prevailed, causing a decline of 4 to 5
points in most active positions from the
early high levels.
The phenomenal strength in Liverpool
was a surprise today, as the opinion
prevailed last night that this market
would take the bureau report figures as
bearish, but overnight they were con
st rued by the majority of traders more
bullish than thought yesterday. The
larger spot interests continued their
aggressiveness, while the local speculators
sold; also Wall Street houses, which was
caused by weakness in the stock mar
ket. One certain firm was said to have
sold fully 50,M0 bales yesterday and was
reported a seller today. However, the.
market maintained a steady tone and
displayed considerable strength in face of
liquidations.
During the late forenoon and into the
afternoon session a precipitant short cov
ering movement and heavy buying by the
big professionals caused a * rapid ad
vance. Prices regained the early de
clines and within a few minutes ranged
18 to 22 points higher than the initial
figures. This buying was based upon
expectations that the week-end statistics
would be bullish.
At the close the market was very steady
with prices a net gain of 10 to 26 point's
from the final quotations of Thursday.

HAYWARD & CLARK’S
DAILY COTTON LETTER
NEW ORLEANS, Dec. 13.-—Liverpool
scorned the decline and came in sur
prisingly strong, with futures about 6
points better than due; spots I point
lower.
First trades here were at an advance
of 10 points and the market ran up
quickly to 12.94 for March. Sellers were
scarce, owing to the temper of Liver
pool and New York, and little buying
caused an advance.
Very bullish weekly statistics are ex
pected. Movement figures well below
those of last year and mill takings larger

UNFAVORABLE CABLE NEWS
CAUSES WEAKNESS IN STOCKS
NEW’ YORK, Dec. 13. Dow’-J ones Com
pany Bays:
“The reaction in stocks was accompa
nied by a rumor that war betw’een Aus
tria and Servia was Inevitable, one of
the large houses had a cable from Ber
lin to that eeffet. It was believed, how
ever, that Servia would receive the sup
port of Russia.
“Canadian Pacific weakness was re
garded as evidence of depression of sen
timent in Berlin. Southern Pacific tit
cline due to undoing of straddles by spec
ulators who bought that stock as a h< <lgo
against sales of Union Pacific, having
been forced to cover in the latter, they
no longer cared to retain position.’’

"“Is 33%:d 33%?'
CHICAGO. I ice 13.- Advances of %c
and %< were made in wheat early today
and ibis was more on the fact that the
offerings were ligh than that the demand
was liigeni. It was a market where
scattered shorts were willing to get in
anil where longs were willing to feed them
at a siiglit. advance. World's shipments
of wheat are expected to he somewhat
lighter, and Manitoba offerings were more
lirtniv held in Liverpool. The Improved
demand for eash wheat from,millers is
bearing fruit, as sales yesterday amounted
to 250,000 bushels ;.t Chicago.
Corn m:is %<■ to %e higher, mainly in
sympathj witli wheat, as the weather is
laxoiable for shelling and movement,
and the crop is now pretty well harvested
and conditioned. Argentine shipments
this week amounted to 1.513.000 bushels
and the Liverpool market was %d lower
to %d higher.
Oats were %e to %c better on shorts
covering and smaller offerings.
ll' g- Mere 5c higher at the yards, and
pork, lard and ribs were mainly higher.
Fake war news Mas sent out in goodly
quant,ties from Wall Street today with
tile intention of advancing a-heat prices
and it worked well enough, hut the con
tradietlons .caused sharp losses toward
tile close. The December was up as higii
as 85% at one time, the Muy reached
99%'"|i9%, ami July 87%. But these
prices were all trimmed % to %c before
the close. Resting spots for Hie day,
however, showed advances of Ac for De
cember and %<■ for May. while July was
unchanged. A New York message report
ed charters of ocean freight room as
made today at the lowest figures on the
crop and the room was taken with the
option of shipping either barley or oats.
Clearances from the seaboard tor the
week were 5,500.000 bushels, with flour
included as wheat, compar'd witli 3,100,-
000 bushels the corresponding time Inst
year. World’s shipments for Monday
next are estimated at 10,400,000 bushels,
or 1,300.000 bushels larger than the same
time last year.
Corn closed unchanged io %c higher,
and oats were %ftf%c better.
Provisions were irregular, but mainly
better in price.
Cash transactions were: Wheat, 45,-
