December 1. Stagnant Trade Conditions Basis for Bear Argument—Buying by Bulls Sustains Market. NEW YORK, Dec. 4. Influenced by firm Liverpool cables and unfavorable crop advices from the Western belt, re sulted in the cotton market opening steady to-day with lirst prices at a net advance of 6 to 9 points from Wednes day's close. Apparently there wus very little cotton for sale at the outset an<T the buying was of a good character. Liverpool cabled that the market has a better undertone and that Manchester is doing better business than reported. This, how’ever, had practically no effect on quotations. Outside speculation was very light. After the call the trend was down ward. The ring crowd seemed inclined to sell and the advance in Liverpool seemed to have little or no effect. This caused some 3 to 5 points decline from the initial range. Sentiment continues very bearish, and with the limited number of bulls in the market at present it is hard for them to meet the selling pressure. Hears ap parently seem to be trying to talk the market down. However, a narrow and featureless market Is looked for until after the Government reports are out of the way. Following are 11 a. m. bids in New York: December, 13.03; January, 13.19; March. 13.33; May, 13.39: July, 13.92.

MARTIX-OZBURN REALTY CO. THIRD NATIONAL BANK BUILDING r> HOXE IVY 1276. ATLANTA 208 HAYWARD & CLARK'S DAILY COTTON LETTER NEW ORLEANS, Dec. 4—Weather conditions continue bad, particularly west of the river, where a continued downpour for the past ten days has un doubtedly caused serious loss to the un picked remnants of the crop. Offerings and movement are shrinking in conse quence. Indications are for unsettled and rainv weather over the entire belt. Liverpool show's more strength, with futures this morning about 4 points higher than due; spot prices 1 point lower; sales. 12.000 hales. This strength in the foreign marke.ts may be due to reduced offerings on account of bad weather and the desire to secure me dium to better grades in anticipation of a possible further increase in the pre miums. Liverpool cabled: “Market has better undertone. Manchester doing better business than reported." This was sug gested some time ago wfien the propo sition of short time was voted down by the mills. Our market opened a few points high er and ruled steady at the advance, hut the dissenting spirit in the Northern market and consequent absence of spec ulative support is felt and expressed in general dullness. Spots ar£ firm with good demand The Into-sight movement for the week looks around 624.000 hales, against 648,- 108 last vear, and -640.945 in 1911. We compare with mill takings of 504.- 000 hales for this week last year.
