strength
pool, which show
cr with sales of 15.000 bales, together
with a bullish crop estimate by the
New York Commercial, resulted in the
cotton market opening steady to-day
with first prices at a net advance of 6
to 10 points from Monday's close. Lo
cal bulls and the mrger spot houses
suported the list and there was an ab
sence of selling presure due to short
covering, who were nervous, seeing tb.it
the market was pretty steady. Outside
business wa's lacking and the trading
was almost wholly attributed to locals.
After the call trading was narrow, the
bears displaying considerable caution.
Local bulls werf the chief buyers, but
the South and Liverpool also took some
and at the end of the first hour the
list stood 3 to 8 points over the initial
level.
After the covering of shorts was ap
parently ended, local bulls took hold
and bid aggressively, but offerings be
came scarce and the list stood around
the early high point.
Sentimnt continues rather bearish,
and the majority are talking setback.
Durine tlie* forenoon scattered profit-
taking by early sellers and ‘‘longs” re
sulted in prices easing back to the
opening range.
Offerings became rather general dur
ing the late forenoon, based on report
that. the National dinners' figures were
12.076,000 bales ginned to December 1.
This caused the market to ease off sev
eral more points from the opening.
Later Turner, of Memphis, reported gin-*
nings to December at 12.016,000 bales,
which was construed as bearish. Some
selling followed, but when Ills comments
were digested his report was accepted
as very bullish because of the large per
centage ginned, which his summary
would indicate.
At the moment there is considerably'
more friendly feeling toward the mar
ket. bulls citing the two important Gov
ernment reports, due December 8 and
12. one on ginning and the other an es
timate as to the size of the crop, as
the most strengthening factors. Some
of the leading bulls contend that should
the Government show 12,000.000 bales
ginned and the fact that picking and
ginning having been so rapid, owing to
higher prices, that there will he very
little more to come, thus making pros
pects for higher prices very bright.
At the close the market was steady
with prices at a net advance of 3 to 6
points from the closing quotations of
Monday.

HAYWARD & CLARK’S
DAILY COTTON LETTER
NEW ORLEANS, Deo. 2.—Liverpool is
strong on spots, which are quoted 5
points higher; sales large, total 15,000
bales, but poor on futures, showing sym
pathetic effect of bearish sentiment in
New York. Spot developments, how
ever, are the guiding 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 14.135.000 bales. Including linters
Fall River reports that the request for
increased wages for 30.000 operatives in
textile mills lias been denied by the
Cotton Men's Association
The weather continued bad, with gen
eral rains over most of the belt, anti in
dications are for rainy and unsettled
weather generally, except possible clear*
ing and much colder in the northern
tier.
Our market opened about 7 points
higher and ruled very steady. Futures
are above spots, and the desire to wait
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 at full quotations. It
was reported that the Turner Bureau, of
Memphis, makes ginnings to December
1 12,016,000, which would be 1,582,000
ginned for the period, against 1.555,000
last year. The comment is that an un
usual number of gins in the belt are
closed 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
terest. which, however, is only the coun
terpart of the. short interest, and 1he
questions seems merely which is the
stronger and has the situation with it.

NEW YORK, Dec. 2 The opening of
the cotton market was wry firm, with
little cotton fof sale. IJvorpool was
better than due. Shorts were good buy
ers. There was also some buying by
spot interests, but the volume of busi
ness was light. Waters was about tin-
best bidder on the opening. He also
bought some cotton. Mitchell was ulso
noticeable on tin* buying side. E. K.
Cone was a good seller of March, but he
bought May, probably as a hedge. J. M
Anderson.

The Journal of Commerce says: "Cot
ton goods buyers are waiting to see
when raw cotton stops sagging and
mills make ready to book late con
tracts.
“Reports from retail markets continue
genrally good and thus far there has
been no decline in the consumption of
dry goods.”
• * •
Weld & Co : “Our ginning figures of
11,766,000 bales, we fear, are too low, as
from all reports we get. a very much
larger percentage of crop has been
ginned up to date than in average
years.”
• * •
Fall River wires: "Cotton Manufac
turers' Association eleclines to increase
wages of 30,000 textile operators. They
say it is impossible to raise wages of

NEW ORLEANS. Dec. 2.—Hayward &.
Clark: The weather map shows bad
weather in the Western ami Atlantic
States, with general rains Partly cloudy
in the central States. Indications are
for generally rainy weather over the
entire belt, followed by cold wave In a
day or two.
• * •
The New Orleans Times-Democrat
says "Shrinking port receipts sug
gested less selling pressure, this coming
at a time when talent and trade are
about ready to believe the Government's
crop estimate will indicate a commercial
crop supply from the growth of 1913 of
less than 14,260,000 encouraged support,
and the cotton market gained a few
points as a result of the day's trading.
Contract buyers, however, seem to fear
full ginning returns for the period end
ing November 30, ami no matter how
sure they may feel that the total for
the period September 1 to November 30
will represnt a very full percentage of
the season’s outturn they do not seem
ready to buy In anticipation of an ad
vance of consequence later on.
“Meanwhile, there are many men w’ho
sincerely believe technical conditions
are against the market, in that the spin
ner has not yet acquired a sufficiently
strong hold on the remainder of the sup
ply. though in this connection It is well
to remember that in the three months
of the season that have passed con
sumers have taken a quantity of cotton
greatly in excess of the previous record
takings for September, October and No
vember.”

Turner’s Ginnings to
Dec. 1 Very Bullish
MEMPHIS, Dec. 2. Replies from
gins in all cotton-producing States give
following returns on cotton ginned to
December 1:
North Carilna, 590,000; South Caro
line, 1,175.000; Georgia, 2.062,000; Ala
bama 1.376,000; Mississippi. 960,000;
Florida. 60,000; Tennessee, 301,000; Ar

lahoma’. 769.000; others, 81,000; Texas,
3,536,000; total. 12,016,000.
A record has been established in the
amount ginned during the month pf No
vember. A fact made possible first by
the even maturity of the crop and then
by unusually favorable weather for
harvesting. And giners maintain, al
most without variation, that the amount
to come forward to gins is very light
and that a wholesale and most unusual
shutting down of activity Is about to
take place.
