Bullish Estimate and Firm Cables
Frighten Shorts—Turner's Re
port Causes Late Dip.
NEW YORK. Dec 2.—Unexpetced
strength in the spot market In Liver
pool. which showed spots 6 points high
er wltfi 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 iarger spot houses
suported the list and there was an ab
sence of selling presure due to short
covering, who were nervous, seeing tlwt
the market was pretty steady. Outside
business w*as lacking and the trading
was almost wholly attributed to locals.
After the call trading was narrow, the
j bears displaying considerable caution.
Local bulls were 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 bulla 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.
During the forenoon scattered prottt-
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 Ginners’ figures were
12,075.000 hales 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 his 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 cither 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 be 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.
Following are 11 a m. bids in New
York: December, 13.25; January. 13.12;
March, 13.23; May. 13.14; July, 13.04.

RANGE IN NEW YO*K FUTURES
NEW YORK, Dee. 2 - The opening of
the cotton market was very firm, with
little cotton for sale. I4verpool 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 aboat the
b«M bidder on the opening He also
bought some cotton. Mitchell was also
noticeable on the buying side E. K.
Cone was a good seller of March, but he
bought May, probably as a hedge J. M.

Sterrett Tate says: "The cotton mar |
ket is Influenced by conflicting fore- j
casts of the census ginners' report. The
long interst remains about the same and
is still a menace to an advance, and It
will take a very bullish ginners' report
and a very bullish crop estlmatp to force
prices up, and even then I do not be

NEW ORLEANS, Dec. 2. Hayward A
Clark: The weather map shows bad

States, with general rains. Partly cloudy
in the central States. Indications are
for generally rainy weather over the
entire belt, followed by cokl wave In a
day or two.

The New Orleans Tlmes-Pemocrat
says: "Shrinking port receipts sug
gested less selling pressure, this cpming
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 14.250.900 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. and 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 who
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 ha*ve taken a quantity of cotton
greatly in excess of the previous record
takings for September, October and No
vember.”
Turner's Ginnings to

MEMPHIS, Dec. 2.—Replies from
gins in all cotton-producing States give
following returns on cotton ginned to
December 1:

line, 1,176.000: Georgia. 2.062.000: Ala

3,535,000; total. 12.016,000.
A record has been established In the
amount ginned during fhe month of No
vember. A fact made possible first by
the even maturity of the crop and then
by unusually favorable weather for
harvesting. And glners maintain, al
most without variation, that the arj^ount
to come forward to gins is very light
and that a wholesale and most unusual
shutting down of activity is about to
take place.

87 ut the close yesterday. Soon It was
selling around 86%.

Industrials, after shading, took on a
firmer tone. Amalgamated Copper
opened % lower, but recovered In half
an hour and gained %. United States
Steel common lost %, going to 64% on
news that the Government will attempt
this week to have the courts flx a time

HAYWARD & CLARK’S
DAILY COTTON LETTER
NEW ORLEANS. Dec. 2.v— Liverpool is
strong on spots, which are quoted 5
points higher; sales large, total 15,000
hales, 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 has been denied by the
Coiton Men's Association
The weather continued bad. with gen
eral rains over most of the belt, and 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 12,016,009, which would he 1.582,999
ginned for the period, against 1.555.099
last year The comment Is that an un
usual number of gins In the belt are
closed for the season.
National Ginners are reported about
12.925,000 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 the
questions seems merely which Is the
stronger and has the situation with it.

The Chicago Inter Ocean says: "Most
of the commission houses were bullish
on wheat last‘night; the same feeling
also prevailed among a majority of the
speculators. It was noticeable that
some of the bears were taking profits
on yesterday's break.
"Sentiment among com traders was
mixed. Many traders said they were
afraid to sell it short, owing to the bad
weather, but at the same time they did
not want to get long.
"Practically all the stock of contract
oats in Chicago was delivered yesterday,
6,425.000 bushels being sent around.”
Bartlett, Frazier Co. say: "Wheat—
There was a good deal of covering by
shorts yesterday, which may give us
a little easier market to-day, but we
consider the position of Wheat, generally
speaking, a healthy one.
"Corn -Local operators still favor the
short side, but are not making much
headway in bringing about any lasting
decline.
"Oats—The market shows a better
tone with bulk of December liquidation
on the way.
