DAILY COTTON LETTER
NEW ORLEANS. Dec. 1.—The Times-
Democrat's correspondents make the
growth 13.666.000 bales. This does not
include linters or other additions. It
says by way of comment that the aver
age spinning power of yield is less than
normal. Furrners sold freely as a rule,
but are disposed to hold on all de
clines. This estiamte agrees well with
the general opinion here of production
this year.
Very bad weather has prevailed in the
belt since Friday, and indications are
for continued bad weather* until the
middle of the week, when a strong cold
wave will bring with it clearing and
cold weather.
Liverpool came in rather indifferent,

the close, whicii show’s prices 14 points

The Times-Democrat's estimate will
go far toward fixing views about avail
able supply and stimulate demand on
the part of consumers.
An unfavorable change is shown this
morning in financial matters. Silver in
London is quoted »/*! down; consols
3-16d down. So far it iiaS not been
learned to what this sudden depletion
is due.
Our market opened 10 points higher
and ruled firm, with prices gradually ad
vancing to 13.37 for March, without
much support. The idea of general busi
ness depression seems to have taken so
much hold of every one that activity is
restrained. The situation In cotton,
however, appears so strong from the
standpoint of supply and minimum re
quirements- that this article may easily
prove, au exception, and may advance in
value without regard to the general sur
rounding conditions.
New York showe ’ more strength to
day, probably on covering by shorts
which interest is generally believed to
be quite large in that quarter. It is re
ported that Weld Co , of New York,
make ginnings to December 11,766,000
bales.

J. G. Baldwin wires from Maxton, X.
C . under uate of November 29: “Have
you ever noticed the earlier the frost
the greater per cent of crop ginned to
November. Fourteen years of early gen
eral frost show about 12H per cent
ginned for period 1st to 14th. I^te frost
years about 10. Take any State sena
rately, the year it lias early frost it will
show largest per cent ginned to No
vember 14. This is true of States both
separately and collectively. Did w ** not
have one of the earliest general killing
frosts then? What will be the result .
Those who need cotton and do not buy
it now may find trouble in getting it
later. Will it be American or foreign
spinner who will make the mistake of
(otton ha«
dwindled to such ,a small figure that it
will take what may seem exorbitant
prices to obtain it?"

We see nothing Hut a trading marker at
the moment, but we consider present,
values reasonable.”
“Corn Receipts are increasing some
what. but still materially below the a\
crage fur the season, while the shipping
demand is rather indifferent.”
“Oat* Tiie market continues heavy-
ami prices are apt to drag lower.
“Provisions We continue to prefer
the long side on setbacks.”

The Kansas City Star say*, without
taking into consideration the feeding of
wheat fo live stock, Kansas apparently
has no more available surplus and will
have to depend entirely on Nebraska
for whatever wheat may be obtained
here during the remainder of the crop

wheat in store here in a comfortable

be little encouragement, to the holders
of long contracts.”
