LONGS LUTE
Elimination of Long Lines Means
Higher Values—Spot Houses
Buy, Encouraging Bulls.
NEW YORK. Dec. 12 -Selling of long
cotton here and abroad caused the cot-
l ton market to open easy to-day, first
prices itf ing 3 off to 2 points higher than
Friday’s close. Liquidation continued
after the opening and support was lack
ing. The ring crowd and commission
houses were heavy .sellers. After the
call the market developed fresh weak
ness and sold off to about the lowest
level made yesterday December drop
ped to 12.98, January 12.84. March 12.97
and May 12.92 aggregating a net decline
of 13 to 17 points from the previous
close.
Sentiment continues very bearish, but
leading bull forces are advising their
friends to buy on all breaks. The situ
ation of the local market has been
strengthened by the elimination of con
siderable more long cotton yet to come
out, and with it removed as a factor
the market will he In a better position
to respond to bullish news. The willing
ness of the larger spot Interests to take
over a large part of this long cotton at
present prices shows that these interests
are not bearish on the market.
Week-end realizing and further liqui
dation by the ring crowd and long line
holders sent the list still lower din
ing the closing hour, while tin* buying
was scarce and scattered. There was
some scattered buying by week-end
shorts, but 1 hia was Insufficient to
check the downwadr movement. Bull
leaders seemed inclined to sidestep, giv
ing the manipulation its full course. On
the break. December sold at 12.90, while
January slumped ' to 12.75. March to
12.88 and May to 12.85. These levels
represented losses of $1.15 to $1.25 a
bale.
At the close the market was easy,
with prices at a net decline of 12 to 25
points from the final quotations of Fri
day.

NEW YORK, Dec. 13.—There was a
little commission house buying at the
outset, hut not enough to affect the sell
ing movement. I.uter commission houses
joined the selling crowd. The ring
crowd hammered every option on the
lis». while Mitchell bought about 15,000
different options after the call trying to
save the list, but was unsuccessful In
his brave attempt. However, lie put up
a great fight ami was backed by a num
ber of the larger snot houses. It was
said that some of Mitchell's buying was
for spot interests.
* * *
Just before the report was issued
yesterday the ring crowd generally
seemed to have sold and when the fig
ures were posted the bullish element
started the buying. The principal buy
ers were Weld brokers, McFadden bro
kers. Craig brokers and Waters. This
started a w#ve of short covering. How
ever, there was general selling by com
mission houses, the uptown crowd and
Wall street on the advance and specu
lators sold around the close.
* * *
J. M. Anderson says: “Sentiment
was somewhat . hanged last night dfter
listening to the arguments of MoFad
den. Brown and ITayne and other lead
ing bulls who claim that consumption
will far exceed the production and that
the spinner is short of cotton and will
have to have it In 60 days.
* * *
“There is a great deal of speculation
on whai size crop the Government’s es
timate points to, taking into consider
ation the weight of hales and the coun
try damage. The bull leaders are pre
dicting a steady advance from present
levels, but I do not anticipate a run
away market.”
* * *
John McFadden is bullish to the core.
Immediately after he arrived from Liv
erpool yesterday, he came on ihu floor
and started to talking extremely bull
ish to all his friends.
• * * .
Sterrett Tate, of N. L. Carpenter Co.,
says; “Conditions are still against an
advance. The rally yesterday following
the Government’s crop estimate, not
withstanding the figures were very bull
ish. was only limited, and. while the
market went up, the undertone was
hea vy.
“The scattered long interest, which is
Immense, and which has held on so long,
Is only encouraged to stick a little long
er. but the buying power is so cur
tailed T do not think it possible for an
advance to he held at this time. 1
think this little upturn has furnished
an excellent opportunity for liquidating,
or starting to liquidate long cotton.
“I believe we are going to have a
gradually sagging market for the pres
ent.

NEW ORLEANS. Dec. 13. Hayward
& Clark: “The weather map shows
fair over the Atlanties and cloudy over
the rest of the belt. Rain fell all over
Texas and O«clhhoma. Indications are.
for unsettled conditions with rain in the
Western half of the belt. Cloudv in the
eastern half. - '
The Nets Orleans Times Democrat
says “While the Government's es
timate of the crop, exclusive of linters.
of 13,677.000 500 pound hales is the
safest pointer available to the cotton
trade, the fact that it Is prophecy and
not history arbitrarily determines noth
ing Nevertheless, the consuming world
will probably take the figures seriously
and ad a.-cording'y. Meanwhile, the
hull, wlio predicates his opinions on the
obvious relationship between apparent
supply’ and ovldt nt requirements, sees
nothing ahead other than higher val
ue**
“On the other hand, the bear, who
bases his ideas on current technical
conditions, expresses the confident be
lief that a price dip of moment will
come before the true influences, inci
dent to probable further reductions in
the world’s net surplus of American
cotton can come into play. Hence the
division of sentiment seems as acute
ever, in spite of the best the Govern
ment could do to clear up the mvsterv
of the 1917-14 supply.
“Throughout the trading foLow ing the
Bureau report. New York consistently
fought the advance, and after New
York’s close New Orleans climbed high

when New York closed. But the foreign
markets are due to open tills morning

COTTON MARKET OPINIONS.
t Hayden, Stone & Co.: “Outside con-
] ditions are so much against speculation
that something radical ’ will he needed

Miller & Co.: “We continue our ad

Bailey & Montgomery: “We believe
that it will b** difficult to sustain the

Cattle receipts normal, with the as
sortment uneven ami prices irregular,
the range being steady to quarter high
er. with better grades in strongest de
mand Trade has been reasonably ac
tive during the week, but will likely drift
into dullness with the approach of the
holiday season, especially on medium

ceipts are expected to be lighter, but of
a better grade, net higher price levels
will doubtless be ehed.
Hogs continue in good supply, with
prices barely steady to a fraction lower.
