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.

Diminished reserves from former crops, the unusually large percentage of cotton of low spinning value., an appre ciable amount of damaged cotton and lighter weight of bales are factors that must not be overlooked In Judging the supply situation. • * * 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.
