NEW YORK, Dec. 16.—Continental buying and good cables resulted in the cotton market opening steady to-day. First prices were at a net advance of 2 to 6 points from the closing quotations of Monday. The iiquidation of long cotton yester day is looked upon as a strengthening factor. However, sentiment continues bearish and lower prices are freely talked. On the advance there was some buying by scattered spot interests and pnc.es worked up 1 to j points from the opening range. This demand, however, soon exhausted and the market settled bock around the previous use, with the selling rather general. During the forenoon the market be gan to seesaw. There was some talk of an upturn, based on hard spots, but the crowd seemed inclined to sell on all rallies and advised their friends to do the same. It was rumored that the Na tional dinners’ gave the amount of cot ton ginned so far at 12,800,000 bales*, giv ing 719.000 bales ginned during the pe riod. Turner’s figures aw- expected at noon to-day. Ginning figures are very Important now in shaping the course of the market. Advices from New Orleans state that there is no pressure of spots and they are not following the decline In futures. Pandemonium broke loose during the early afternoon and prices broke badiy as a result of a frenzy of selling orders, based on Turner’s ginning figures of 12.796,000 bales ginned to December 13, which was a signal for heav\ liquida tion Everybody seemed to have cotton for sale and nobody cared to buy, re sulting in December dropping to 12.51; January, 12.33; March, 12.52, and May, 12.60. At these levels an unexpected buying movement developed, based on a cable stating that Niel, of London, was inclined to increase his estimate on con sumption. resulting in a rapid advance of about 10 points from the low point. The principal buying apparently came from shorts and spot houses. A large spot house* head of Philadelphia and Liverpool was on the floor expressing bullish views on consumption. How ever. the market is expected to rule narrow until the Government’s ginning figures are posted Saturday morning. The report is expected to be bearish and will likely Induce further long line to liquidation, which would tend to weaken the technical position of the market. At the close the market was steady with prices 1 to 7 points lower than Monday’s close. Following are 11 a. m. bids in New York: December, 12.67; January 12.53; March. 12.69; May. 12.66; July, 12.57.

What. therefore, could be more natural than for New York’s action to be against a market which is pouring its tens of millions of money Into a section of the country that would welcome currency legisla tion designed to decentralize financial control This is the disposition of the so-called ‘cotton corner case,’ which some operators seem to think strength ens the influence of the short seller and weakens the holder of long contracts in that the decision of the Federal Court is construed to prohibit any concert of action designed to absorb and move into consumers’ hands New York’s protect ive stock. "These factors, combined with timid support, and some accumulation of cot ton in the interior, where the banks are not over well supplied with cash, have.

HAYWARD A CLARK’S DAILY COTTON LETTER NEW ORLEANS, Dec. 16. • Liverpool showed a firmer tone to-day, with fu tures about 3 points better than due, sales 10,000 bales, and cables that Neill Is rumored to have increased their es timate of consumption of American cot ton. Judging by the following report from a large Liverpool spot house, con ditions in Lancashire are good: “There has been quite a steady spot demand from our trade and it is evident they have not been able to secure their cot ton on forward contracts as in former years; so, unless short time should come, we may look for a more regular spot demand than is generally the case in January, February and March. As regards short time, we can not see any signs just now In the spinning trade, al though Manchester fee ling Is gloomy, as a result of temporary conditions in the Orient." First trades her** w*ere at an advance of 3 points, with support timid, owing to the continued bearish disposition in New York and a rumor that the Na tional Ginners’ returns indicate 719,000 bales ginned for the period, which. If correct, would be much more than ex pected. The feeling here, however, con tinues bullish and faith in ultimately higher prices is unshaken Professional reports from New York say there has been a heavy liquidation of long cotton and also hedge selling, even against cot ton too low for delivery on futures. Technical conditions are therefore tak ing on a bullish appearance. As to a large Census report Saturday, It can not destroy confidence In a small crop. The spot houses In New* York are bullish and McFadden is reported to have ex pressed the belief that the crowd is overestimtaing the crop and underesti mating consumption.
