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.

LQU 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.

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. * • • Following is the statistical position of cotton on Friday, December 12. as made up by The New York Financial Chronicle Tills Week Last Year 5,970.341 Visible supply....
