John .! Shute, of Liverpool, recently
returned front a trip over Texas and

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 basts.
Spot cotton failed to follow the decline
in futures and the chief bull argument
is tliat futures will have to go up to par

The New Orleans Times-Democrat sacs:
The cotton market received the govern
ment quantitive crop guess with some re
spect and much interest. Visitors crowd
ed the exchanges and gay millinerv
niHiio the galleries a vision of kaleido*
scopic beauty. The figure, 13.82n.n00
bales of 500 pounds gross weight, exclu
sive ot linters and repacks, about met the
expectations of the trade, since the mar
ket fluctuated within narrow limits and
prices on the day s trading changed but
title. Liverpool remained Inactive until
late at night, lost 5 English points after
the bureau, and is due to advance about
3 points on the opening tills morning.
So much for the estimate and its Imme
diate results. What it means is another
matter. Henceforth, the soft colors of
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 tile first place, tile govern
ments tignre of 13,820,000 compares with
The Times-Deima-rat's tignre. published
on December 2of 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
tn commercial weights of about 13,750,-
0011 bales. He says: The commercial
bales are running about 4 per cent heavier
than th. government standard; practical
ly as much cotton from the growth of
1912 will be held back as will come into
sight during 1912-1913 from the grow th of
1911 Making the proper deductions and
additions to the bureau tignre of 13,820 -
000 500-pound bales, the crop looks like
13,750,000 commercial bales, everything
included."

Increase in Spot Demand Also
Factor—Selling Light and
Scattered.
-N’lzW YORK, Dec. 13. —Firm sales and
covering by local shorts resulted in the
cotton market opening steady, with prices
7 to 12 points higher than the closing
quotations of Thursday. Good support
was given the market by big bulls and
spo? interests. The selling was light and
scattered. After the call prices made a
| furtiu r advance of 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
parly 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
i bearish, but overnight they were con-
si 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
I caused by weakness in the stock mar
ket. <me certain firm was said to have
sold fully 50,000 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 end heavy buying by the
big professionals caused a rapid* ad
vance. Prices regained the early de
clines and within a few minutes ranged
is 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.

scorned the decline and came in sur
prisingly strong, with futures about 6
points better than due: spots t point
lower.
hirst 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
l those of last year and mill takings larger
I (han this week last year. Another bull
! ish object, the expectation of which con
tributes to the firmness of the bullish
I position in the market, is the census

“The reaction in stocks was accompa

ever, that Servia would receive the sup
port of Russia.
"Canadian Pacific weakness was re
garded as evidence «-f depression of sen

ST. LOUIS CASH QUOTATIONS
Wheat—No. 2 red 107 fQ; , s
CHICAGO. Dee. 13.—Advances of 1;.
and %< were made in wheat early
and this was more on the fact that th)
offerings were ligh than that the demand
was urgent. It was a market where
scattered shorts were willing to
and where longs were willing to feed them
at a slight advance. World’s shipment
of wheat are expected to be somewhY
lighter, and Manitoba offerings were m?.re
firmly held in Liverpool. The imnrwL
demand for cash wheat from millers
bearing fruit, as sales yesterday amount
to 250,000 bushels at Chicago.
Corn was %e to %e higher, mainlv i n
sympathy with wheat, as the weather
favorable for shelling and movemen
and the crop is now pretty well harvested'
and conditioned. Argentine shipnmrG
tills week amounted to 4,513,000 bushels
and the Liverpool market was %d lowei
to %d higher. ’ e '
Oats were %c to %c better on shorts
covering and smaller offerings
Hogs were 5c higher at the yards and
pork. lard and ribs were mainly higher’’
Fake war news was sent out in gomil
quantities from Wall Street todav wit''
the intention of advancing wheat’ prices
and it worked well enough, but the con
tradictions caused sharp losses toward
the close. The December was up as high
as 85% at one time, the May reached
»9U@9%%, and July 8714. But Th,.E'
prices were all trimmed % to %c before
the close. Resting spots for the dav
however, showed advances of %c for De
cember and %c for May. while Jul-, was
unchanged. A New York message report
ed charters of ocean freight room as
made toda.y 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 5,60(1,000 bushels, with flour
included as wheat, compared with 3,100-
000 bushels the corresponding time last
year. World's shipments for Monday

or 1.300,000 bushels larger than the same

GRAIN OPERATORS BULLISH:
ADVISE PURCHASE OF WHEAT
CHICAGO, Dec. 13.—The Inter-C" ean
says:
"Speculative temperament among *h’
local crowd inclines to the buying si<b
of wheat on breaks. Many operaterr
expressed their opinion last night tha'
witli a better tone In stocks in Wai
Street and liquidation over, it afforded a
pretext for a. small rally on all grains
especially wheat. It was noticeable tha’
more commission houses were bullish, *n f
believe that liquidation has been suff'
cient to warrant conservative purchaser
of all grains on declines.”
