Average guens of 104 members of the
New York Cotton Exchange places the
crop at 18,618,000 bales
NEW YORK, Dec. II.—On buying or
ders for Liverpool account the cotton
market opened steady to-day, but the
range was extremely narrow, being net
unchanged to 1 point higher than Wed
nesday’s close Brokers with foreign
connections bougnt enough to increase
the initia 1 gain 2 to 4 points, but on
the rise offerings became freer with the
demand and there was not enough out
side trading to sustain the market and
prices sagged l to 2 points from the pre
vious close within half an hour after
the opening
Traders are mostly marking time
until after the Government’s crop esti
mate due to-morrow at 1 p. m., but the
general opinion is that thu market will
remain in the rut until after the turn
of the year and then there is still con
siderate change in the attitude of the
market. It is believed that the ring Is
short and higher levels will be made
before or after the crop estimate Is pub
lished.
Fair weather was predicted for the
eastern belt.
Trading continued extremely light
with no significance during the late
forenoon. The ring crowd and commis
sion houses sold to some extent, but
their offerings were quickly absorbed
by the same people who have been buy
ers for the past few' days. Everyone
Is waiting on the Census Bureau’s esti
mate. preferring to wait until the re
port is out of the way
Guesses as to what the Government’s
figures will he range between 13.200.000
to 14.200,000 bales. However, the most
popular estimate 1h around 13.600,000
na’es. The Bureau guess of 104 mem
bers of the local exchange is 13.618,000
bales Conservative operators contend
that anything below this figure will he
construed a* bullish and advance quo
tations.

HAYWARD A CLARK'S
DAILY COTTON LETTER
NEW ORLEANS. Dec. 11. There was
no news or developments overnight to
directly affect the market. Our open
ing was at unchanged figures, except
December, which opened lower. The
weakness in the spot market is directed
to an Insufficient discount on low grades
and off color cotton, but the revision
committee Is called to meet soon to wi
den the discount on off qualities on the
basis of trades In the open spot markets.
There was only some small shifting In
terest prior to the Bureau publication
On the whole, interests are pretty well
arranged for the occasion and technical
conditions are no great factor unless the
Bureau should be drastically out of line
with the prevailing expectation of a
moderate yield around last season's to
tal.
While rapid harvesting and marketing
of the crop in the South has eased
money conditions, the North is still in
the griri of pessimism, as the result of
disappointing railroad statements and
dejected apathy In the stock market,
but the condition of cotton appears so
strong on supply conditions that South
ern holders should be able to dictate
absolutely by showing confidence and a
proper policy of defense In marketing
the balance ofrtbe crop In their hands.
Liverpool Is steady on futures. Spots
5 points lower, sales 10,000 bales.
News comes from Texas that, owing
to the recent spell of very bad weather,
the country damage on bales Is appall
ini?.
The average idea of to-morrow’s Bu
reau seems to be around 13,800,000
haler. The estimate last year was 13.
820,000 bales. Anything under 14.000 Q0<
this year would be considered bullish,
as the diminished reserves from former
crops, an unusually larger percentage of
the cotton of low spinning value, an ap
preciable amount of damaged cotton,
and lighter weight of bales, all count
against the supply.

A Washington special to The Journal
of Commerce declares that Congress
will uass at this session a bill designed
for tne control of cotton exchanges.
The votes for this purpose have been
obtained and there is expected to be lit
tle friction with respect to the proposal.
President Wilson has given his approval
to the undertaking and If a bill of that
description comes to him he will sign it.
The bill to be passed, however, will not
be the drastic scheme that is expected
in many quarters, but will aim at but
two main purposes. It will seek to
compel absolutely the use of Govern
ment standards, it will attempt to en
force the use of the commercial differ
ence system. The tunc now Bet foi
the adoption of the proposed legislation
is next January probably in the latter
part.

NEW ORLEANS. Pec. 11.—Hayward
A Clark: “The weather map shows
cloudy over the southern half of Texas,
with rains in South Texas. Generally
fair over the rest of the belt; no pre
cipitation; indications are for increasing
cloudiness, except fair in the northwest*
ern quarter; warmer; showers In the
southwestern portion.’’
* m •
The movement into sight for the week
to-morrow is expected bullish. Also mill
takings for week. Last year they were
451,000 bales.
• ♦ •
The New Orleans Times-Democrat
says; “Awaiting a Bureau report is al
ways sweating labor for the broker
Particularly is this true at the present
time when speculation is being re
strained in both directions
“The bull on cotton views the market
thus: Tight money, which has forced
the sale of cotton on the one hand, and
on the other, the necessity for a con
sistent fight for position by the spinner,
if he would avoid enforced buying of
raw cotton supplies on a runaway mar
ket, have in combination delayed the
advance in values warranted by the
promise of a further, shrinkage In the
world's net surp'us of American cotton
In the end .such checks to a normal
f irice drift must give way. because the
aw of average will Inevitably prevail
“The hear on cotton views the mar
ket thus: Talent and trade believe the
Government crop estimate will be In line
with commercial crop estimates approx
imating 14.250,000 bales. Therefore, the
immeditae consideration Is to what sen
timent such an estimate will engendyr
Consumers will take the Government es
timate seriously. Consequently, the
wise operator, no matter how large a
prop he may believe In, hesitates to sell
short at this particular time.”

Passing of Dividend Causes Vig
orous Selling—Bulls Buy, Sus
taining Other Issues.
By CHARLES W. STO>M.
NEW YORK, Dec. 11.—Speculative in
terest was focused on New York, New
Haven and Hartford Railroad shares at
the opening of the stock market to-day,
because of the passing of the dividend
yesterday This stock opened with a
new low record, going to 68 on the sale
of 5,000 shares. Numerous small lots of
500 and 200 and 100 shares were offered
and were readily purchased by interests
which bought in order to support the
entire list. From 68 the price rallied to
69V4 New' Haven had closed at 12%,
so the first transaction to-day repre
sented a loss of 4% points.
A great deal of attention was paid to
Amalgamated Copper, which was un
usually strong. After opening at 70^.
unchanged from last night’s final, this
issue rose to 71V*.
United States Steel opened with a
1,000 lot transaction at 67. but it im
mediately shaded to 66V the quotation
at which it closed last night.
Because of the affiliations between
New York Central and New Haven it
was expected that the former would
suffer depression at the opening, but its
first price was 92 %, a loss of only %
Within half an hour It had recovered
completely.
There was 'considerable excitement
among the New Haven and New York
Central groups at the opening. Bro
kers representing Important interests
were active at their supporting orders.
The curb was steady.
In London America!)* were cheerful,
but lacked vigor. New Yofk Central
was purchased there for a good advance
Canadian Pacific In London declined,
then rallied.
Interest continued to “be focused upon
New Haven, and with small drops with
every sale it declined 2 points from its
oepning to 67t4. The show of strength
in many of tne standard issues was
checked after the first half of the fore
noon and pries movements were varia
ble, with most of the early gains being
lost. Reading declined \ and Steel %.
Other Issues were slightly lower.
Call money loaned at 5%.
Trading In New Haven shares contin
ued light during the first hour, but
shortly after 11 o’clock the price yield
ed again and went down to 67%, the
lowest yet reached.
After a period of weakness the mar
ket strengthened In the lute trading
A firm tone was displayed by most of
the leading issues, among both railroads
and industrials. Less Interest was at
tached to New Haven. which sold
around 68% for a net loss of 4% from
Wednesday’s final Some of the morn
ing sellers bought small blocks, caus
ing a rally to 68%, but It fell back on
further transactions There was con
tinued accumulation of Reading, which
sold around 184 for a net gain of % on
the day.
Steel held around 56% and Amalga
mat'd Copper sold at 70% fur a frac
tional advance.
Canadian Pacific made a fractional
Khin, while Southern Pacific lost about
a point.
