'[American and stock of American cotton;
now more than a half million more than I
I '.as- year. This is likely to change nidi-
J call' in the next two months. The in
j lii'-em nts for importation during the past
■ three months were totally different this
| year from las’ \ car. Last year we had
[declining markets, enormous crop osti
' mates and a general l>elief ir. lower values.
; which delayed the acquisition of stock, I
I whereas, this year belief in a small crop, I
I fear of competition for the raw mate- ,
[rial and rapidly advancing markets have;
stimulated an early provision of sto< k.
i , The gem*ral buying and large exports
last year did not set in until about this
tim**, and the export movement assumed
ver; large proportions by January and
February. Statistical comparisons,
therefore, arc to be less flattering during
the next two months. Heavy exports and
large weekly lan< ngs i • ns ■ lence pro
vided for the heaviest mill takings on rec
ord during February and March.
i New York gossip says McFadden ’
[stopped nearly all the January notices'
[yesterday and absorbed most of the
'•ontraet selling, both straight and on'
i straddles. A party from Atlanta told!

Our market op» r.ed 6 to 8 points down
and looked Hat and tired. This is not j
unusual during U.:es»- ’mlidaj limes, but |
there was no .-pe<*ial pressure and eon
fiuenov prevailed that the leading bull in
terests will take care of it until busi- ■
ness a- tivit.v revives in :!;<■ new year, on i
the whole, tin markets passed through I
the holidays with comparatively little >
damage, c 'lisidering that the price level
was nearly le liigher than at th*- same
time last 'car. and there is an idea that a
January s«iu< eze in New York will be i
’ worked to set the bull movement after '
th<* holidax. Market held very steady
