HAYWARD & CLARK’S DAILY COTTON LETTER NEW ORLEANS, Dec. 2 -Liverpool is strong on spots, which are quoted 5 points higher, sales large, total 15,000 hales, hut poor on futures, showing sym pathetic effect of bearish sentiment in New York. Suot developments, how ever, are the gliding rod, and, judging by to-day's quotations, the markets are quick to reflect any check In offerings and decline in receipts. The New York Commercial makes the crop 14.138,000 bales, including Unters. Fall River reports that the request for increased w-ages for 30.000 operatives in textile mills has been denied by the Cotton Men’s Association The weather continued bn/1, with gen eral rains over most of the belt, and In dications are f<»r rainy and unsettled w'eather generally, except possible clear* ing and much colder In the northern tic?. Our market opened about 7 points higher and ruled very steady. Futures are above spots, and the desire to wail for a proper adjustment prevents sup port from becoming aggressive, but feel ing is decidedly bullish. The existence of a large short Interest in New York Is more favorable to a rap Id advance there Spots are firm, with increased demand hi full quotations. It was reported that the Turner Bureau, of Memphis, makes ginnings to December 1 12,016,000, which would be 1,582.<>(X) ginned for the period, against 1,655,000 last year. The comment is that an un usual number of gins In the belt are dosed for the season. National dinners are reported about 12.025,000. New York professional ad vices are still against the market on the technical ground of too much long In j terst. which, however, is only the coun terpart of the short interest, and the question seems marely which Is the stronger and has the situation with it.
