Big Spot Interests Absorb Of

for Week-End.
->;v YoRK. Dec. 14.—Influenced by?
iirjii < ables and local shorts covering, the
• otton market opened steady at 7 to 12
joinis highei today than the closing
prices of Friday. Trading was very ac
tive during ?hc first fifteen minutes and
prices rallied a few points from the
opening. After the call, the ring crowd
inclined to sell, resulting in prices drop
ping back. practically unchanged from the
iirsi figures. The larger spot houses
wcr« good buyers.
Profit-taking by scattered longs and the
rim crowd selling short resulted in the
mark* i declining further^’during the late
Trading of the short session. Those who
covered early w’ere among the best sell
ers later. The unusual week-end short
covering was not in evidence. Hou- ver,
Hu' market was supported remarkably
well by the large spot houses, but the big
hulls were absent, and prices after de
clining about 7 points from the opening,
out with continued aggressiveness from
brokers representing spot interests a few
points advance was noted.
'l’he principal factor today was the fact
that John McFadden was very bullish
and is now in the city. Traders were less
urgent in making their deals and handled
them with caution, which was evidently
logically due because of the inactive mar
i ket during the last half houf* of trading.
At the close the market was steady,
with prices a net gain of 5 to 13 points
from the final quotations of Friday.

DAILY COTTON LETTER
NKVV UHLEANS. Dee. ll.—Liverpool
readily followed the advance in our mar
kets yesterday, dosing with futures 6 to
1 points; spots 6 points up; sales, 6,000.
Cables are all bullish, dwelling on the
large Manchester business. Correspond
ence from that market savs there is no
let up in the stream of. orders and that
mills have no trouble in hoking ahead as
much ns they care to do. The Liverisiol
stock of American cotton, is now 1,475,000,
against 970,000 last year, showing impor
tation has been concentrated and facili
tated by the bull movement in the con
tract markets.
Expectations of the bullish census re
port on Friday next will determine trad
ing considerably during the first half of
next week.
Our market opened 7 points higher and
advanced to 18.11 for Marsh. London
financial articles say monetary conditions
in Olurope are much worse than last year.
Pressure of trade and hoarding of gold
may cause money failure. New York
gossip says that McFadden, Sr.. Is verv
bullish on the situation, also that the na
tional ginners retursn show 406.00 V ginned
during the period, December 1 to De
cember 12, inclusive, which compare with
953,000 last year. 555,000 In 1910, and 892 -
000 in 1908.
The market held very firm around 13.08
for Marcli The scarcity of sellers is very
pronoun Leading provisionals in
New York sent bullish wires and predict
higher markets for tlie near future.
